This, like the faster M2 Ultra is built to handle the rendering needs of Photoshop, Pro Tools and Final Cut Pro.

The power of the M2 Max chip is something that you will struggle to challenge unless you are stretching the limits of some of the most demanding of softwares. After all, these chips are putting out some serious power. In fact, a large proportion of that casing space is made up of thermal architecture, designed to move the air through the device and keep it cool. Unlike some of the M2 chipped devices, the Mac Studio does use a fan.

Bluetooth connections are also used for any wireless mice, keyboards or trackpads you want to use with the device, which you will need to buy separately. I miss having this on my MacBook Pro, so is really nice to have it here to quickly upload images from my camera.įor wireless connections, the Mac Studio features WiFi 6E at up to 2.4Gb/s and BlueTooth 5.3 for low latency connection to a range of accessories, like headphones.

Handily, there’s even an SDXC card slot on both versions. For the M2 Max edition, these are two USB-C ports that support up to 10Gb/s, while on the M2 Ultra there are two Thunderbolt 4 ports up to 40Gb/s – both look the same, the difference is all in the speed. There are two further USB-A ports to save you having to use adaptors, a 10Gb ethernet, enhanced HDMI and a 3.5mm headphone jack. On the rear, there are four Thunderbolt 4 ports that all support DisplayPort, USB 4 and USB 3.1 Gen 2 operation. One of the big advantages of a desktop machine is the number of ports, and the Mac Studio is no exception. I’m not sure my desk would cope with any more than two, and besides, just the one Studio Display is more than enough for me. The Mac Studio M2 Max can actually support up to five displays at once, while the M2 Ultra can support six 6K monitors, or eight 4K ones.

The footprint of the computer is identical to the Mac mini (19.7cm or 7.7 inches) but it is considerably taller at around 9.5cm or 3.7 inches.Ĭrucially, that’s still short enough to fit neatly underneath most monitors, including the Apple Studio Display that pairs perfectly with both the Mac Studio and the Mac mini.
