That leaves power charging as the biggest reason for plugging a cable into an iOS device, and that issue may be solved by induction or truly wireless charging before USB-C becomes completely and universally adopted. WiFi sync, AirDrop photo and file transfers and iCloud based sharing are all more convenient than plugging in a cable. At the same time, there's a lot you can now do wirelessly rather than needing to plug in a cable. The fact that basic USB 3.0 connectivity can be supported on existing Lightning connectors and legacy USB ports suggests that iOS devices might not make the switch as quick, requiring a longer transition period of using adapters. If you don’t, it’ll cost you $79 to pick up the 96W charger later.For iOS devices, USB-C offers less of an attraction, given that they can't support Thunderbolt 3 connectivity (which requires an Intel processor) and don't need DisplayPort video output to external displays. If you want to enjoy its maximum 96W charging, you’ll have to pay $20 extra at the checkout.

The base model 14-inch MacBook Pro comes with a 67W charger. Bundled chargers: The 16-inch MacBook Pro comes with the 140W charging brick in the box.The M1 Max can handle three 6K monitors and one 4K monitor, all at 60Hz. The M1 Pro can actually run two 6K monitors at 60Hz. External monitors: I ran two 4K external monitors on the M1 Pro MacBook Pro without a hitch.For me, it’s not a huge issue but it could be for you. Memory bandwidth: If you need high bandwidth memory make sure you spring for the M1 Max, as that chip offers double what the M1 Pro does (400GB/s vs 200GB/s).If you have any weird performance issues this might help you identify the cause. Native apps: If you’re not sure which apps are running natively and which are run through Rosetta 2, just check the Activity Monitor, which has a column called Kind.A beta version of Universal Control for paired iPads is also available through Monterey’s Display settings but I didn’t have an iPad with which to test it out.

The biggest updates here include an updated look for Safari, Shortcuts app for automation, on-device dictation, and some updates to FaceTime including portrait mode, spatial audio, and SharePlay support. macOS: The Apple MacBook Pro review unit I had was running macOS Monterey 12.0.1 the entire time.
