Looking at how impressive Apple’s 5nm M1 chip is, we can only imagine what the new silicon intended for the company’s desktop family is going to perform. It looks like we’ll have to wait a while for that to happen, as the M2 chip expected to be found in a future iMac model is said to arrive during the second half of 2021.

According to a tipster on Weibo who goes by the name ‘Mobile chip master,’ Apple’s M2 chip is expected to arrive for the company’s desktops during the second half of 2021. Internally, the silicon is codenamed Jade, and while that’s all the information provided, we can speculate further, though there can be confusion as we write this along the way. Firstly, a previous report discussed Apple developing a 5nm desktop-class A14T chip for the iMac, not the M2.
