Lately, there has been some confusion regarding Apple’s next custom silicon for its Mac lineup. Rumors were floating around concerning the successor of the M1 to be called the M1X or M2. Luckily, one tipster states that Apple is working on two of them, with the M2 expected to be found in the upcoming 2022 MacBook Air.

According to Dylan, who is also known as @dylandkt by his Twitter handle, previously said that Apple's MacBook Pro and Mac mini would arrive in the fourth quarter of 2021. The chipset fueling these machines, according to him, will be the M1X. According to previous specifications, the M1X will sport 10 cores, where eight of them will be focused on performance, with the remaining four directed towards power efficiency.
