The first Apple silicon M1 MacBook Pro 2020 was a big jump but arguably nowhere near a great of a machine as the second release with the M1 Pro’s with the redesign in 2021. But more importantly I think they’re referring to the redesign with the butterfly keyboards with intel CPU’s as that was a terr
