Apple announced it will discontinue support for Intel processors in its macOS operating system, with the release of macOS 26 Tahoe being the last to support Intel chips. This decision signifies a shift towards Apple Silicon, focusing on innovation and performance efficiency. It reflects the evolving computing requirements, particularly in mobile devices, that have emphasized energy efficiency and performance per watt. Apple's relationship with Intel began in 2006, emphasizing the pursuit of high-performance personal computers, but changing tech trends necessitated this transition.
Apple Silicon enables us all to achieve things that were previously unimaginable. And it's time to put all of our focus and innovation there. So, macOS Tahoe will be the final release for Intel Macs.
One of the biggest reasons that we decided to switch to using Intel processors is because what drives us is wanting to make the best personal computers in the world.
