18% better performance vs the M1... not too bad!

how does the M2 compare with a M1 Pro?
 
Typical the new M2 MacBook Air looks so good just a couple of months after I got the original M1 :p

EDIT: Full size keyboard, adds MagSafe to keep the two USB-C free. Damn my impatience a few months ago!

M1 Pro was about 2x the perf of M1, so still about 70% faster than M2. Most of the gains compared to M1 comes from better efficiency cores which got a big upgrade in A15. The GPU makes a much bigger difference and is more important. M1 CPU was already pretty fast, M1 GPU could get better and is now 35% faster.

Going to 24GB of ram is also very welcome, 16GB was quite limiting but 24GB would be fine for this machine.
 
That new charger must be the new gallium nitride plug that was rumoured about a few weeks ago. I definitely want one and hope they are sold separately.
 
why on earth would they keep the same design for the 13 inch pro?

Also price increase really....
