It might be compact, but it's not designed to be underestimated. Apple's most significant announcement at its Peek Performance event is a Mac Mini-like new device. Apple dubs it the Mac Studio, a compact desktop system that packs in so much power the company confidently proclaims it can be faster than even the most premium Mac Pro.

The new Mac Studio runs on either the M1 Max chip or the new, more powerful M1 Ultra. The Ultra packs features like support for up to 128GB of memory, a 20-core CPU with 16 high-performance cores and four efficiency cores, a 64-core GPU, and a 32-core neural engine. And the company claims it is "nearly" eight times faster than the M1.
