Apple is testing its upcoming 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pros with the yet-to-be-released M2 Max processor. So far, Apple has released the new MacBook Air and very old looking 13-inch MacBook Pro with the M2 processor, and the M2 Pro and M2 Max laptop processors are the logical next in line (with an eventual M2 Ultra for the Mac Studio ).

Two runs of Geekbench reveal a MacBook with an M2 Pro processor and 96GB of RAM. The figure means that Apple will likely allow buyers to configure more than the current maximum 64GB option.

The M2 Pro processor has 12 cores, runs at a maximum of 3.54GHz which is 2 more cores and 320Mhz faster than the M1 Pro in latest generation MacBook Pro laptops. The L1 and L2 cache figures listed are the same.

Apple was supposed to introduce the M2-powered 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pros in the fall, but since we’re fully into winter now, they could be delayed until 2023.
