After launching the M1 chipset under Apple Silicon a couple of years back with the new MacBook Air and MacBook Pro devices, the Cupertino-based tech giant is now gearing up to launch the second-generation processor based on ARM architecture.

There have been some reports about the M2 chipset powering the new MacBook series models and now another report has surfaced online that talks about the feature we can expect from the new M2-powered MacBook Pro.

In the Power On newsletter by Mark Gurman of Bloomberg, it is claimed that the new entry-level MacBook Pro with the yet unannounced Apple M2 chipset won’t feature a ProMotion display that we saw on the recent 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pros.

The report adds that the lack of ProMotion display on the upcoming entry-level MacBook Pro models is to differentiate it from the M1 Pro and M1 Max-powered models. Apart from the screen, the company could also compromise on storage.

It is expected to feature an LCD screen while the new MacBook Air powered by the M2 processor is said to come with a Mini LED display. This means that the device won’t have support for ProMotion or a variable 120Hz refresh rate.

Apart from the MacBook Pro, the upcoming Apple M2 chipset will refresh all the M1-powered devices, including the entry-level MacBook Air, Mac Mini, and a 24-inch iMac. While the launch date for these devices remains unknown, we expect to see a refreshed version of all of them by the end of this year.

The company also has a wide range of devices ready to launch this year and we are expecting to see Apple complete the transition from Intel to Apple Silicon for its Mac lineup.
