Looks like the M3's are here…
Apple today announced next-generation 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro personal computers during its "Scary Fast" event. These new computers...
(And in Space Black even!)
Looks like the new M3 chips are a significant upgrade from the M1 chips, a very significant upgrade from the Intel/Radeon chips, and a super significant upgrade from the Intel Macs with no discrete GPU. Except for 3D content creation, gaming with games that actually support Metal ray tracing, and video production, it's not that significant an upgrade from the M2 chips.
And I see people on social media bashing it for the default configuration only having 8GB of RAM. It's like they don't realize Apple intentionally keeps a low end, compromised, and cheap configuration around for the large amount of MacBook users that just want a cheap-but-not-uselessly-so laptop for email, social media, and the occasional word processed document. The people bashing it on social media are free to buy a less compromised model; Apple does sell them.

Soo, ignoring the marketing wank, we get:
Whoa those are not cheap! Guess I’ll keep dragging on with my Intel Mac a while longer. le sigh
So excited for this!! M3 looks like a fairly good improvement and the space black is perfect for the MacBook Pro lineup
