With the M1 chip, the new Mac mini also sees massive gains. The MacBook Air also ditches a fan, offering a 'silent design.' The 13' MacBook Pro maintains an active cooling system, offers up to 2.8 times faster CPU performance and up to 5 times faster GPU performance. In the case of the M1-powered MacBook Air, Apple promises up to 3.5 times faster CPU performance and up to 5 times faster graphics. The Apple M1 chip promises massive performance gains over prior Intel chips. In case you missed Apple's event on Tuesday, you can watch a replay of the stream below: As of writing, Adobe has not offered a timeline for other Adobe apps built for the M1 chip. While Photoshop and Lightroom are the primary apps for photographers in the Adobe ecosystem, the company has many other heavily-used apps, such as Premiere, Dreamweaver, Illustrator, and much more.

In Apple's presentation, embedded below, Senior Vice President, Craig Federighi, said Adobe is bringing Lightroom CC to its M1 computers in December and following it up with Photoshop in early 2021 (around the 18:10 timestamp). The MacBook Air, MacBook Pro and Mac mini computers powered by the M1 chip are all available for order now ahead of a November 17 release. It is worth noting that at this point, Adobe hasn't discovered any issues with running Lightroom Classic 10 under Rosetta 2 emulation, but as it is not officially supported, the user does assume non-zero risk. On a dedicated page about Lightroom Classic compatibility with the upcoming macOS 11 operating system, Adobe warns that 'Adobe apps run under Rosetta 2 emulation on Apple devices with Apple Silicon M1 processors is not officially supported.' The company continues, 'Native support is planned.'Įarly adopters of the M1-powered Apple computers will have to do without official support for now. During the event, Apple announced that Adobe, among many other developers, is working on releasing new versions of its software that are compatible with the M1 chip.Īs it turns out, these new M1-compatible versions will be critical for Adobe Lightroom users on the new Apple silicon Macs. The new MacBook Air, 13' MacBook Pro and Mac mini devices all use Apple's new M1 chip.

Earlier this week, Apple announced the first trio of Mac computers built using Apple's own silicon.
