Mac does that

Mac

Never used a Mac? No problem. Mac is easy to learn and easy to use. And if you’re considering the switch to Mac from PC, getting started is a breeze.

  • Is Mac
    as easy to learn as my iPhone?

  • Can I transfer my stuff?

  • Do apps from my
    PC work on Mac?

  • How does Mac work with my iPhone?

You’ll feel
at home in no time.

  • If you love iPhone, you’ll love Mac. 

    Mac + iPhone

    If you love iPhone, you’ll love Mac. Mac is designed to be just as easy to learn as iPhone. And when you use them together, you can do incredible things.

    • See and use what’s on your iPhone from your Mac without having to reach for it with iPhone Mirroring.1

    • Send and receive text messages from your Mac with iMessage.2

    • Copy text, images, videos, or files from your iPhone and paste them on your Mac with Universal Clipboard.

    Quick to learn.
    Easy to love.

    macOS

    macOS. Quick to learn. Easy to love. Simple, intuitive gestures. Snappy, smooth multitasking. Free, seamless updates. That’s thanks to macOS — the powerful, friendly operating system that makes a Mac a Mac. If you’re switching over from PC, you’ll catch on quick.

  • Your apps
    won’t

    just run. They’ll fly.

    Apps

    Your apps won’t just run. They’ll fly. When you switch to Mac, you can still use the apps you know and love — like Microsoft 365, Grammarly, and WhatsApp. And you’ll see just how fast, smooth, and snappy Notability and MindNode can be. Mac also easily runs your favorite apps — like Adobe Photoshop, Figma, and Canva.

  • Makes moving over files all smiles. 

    Setup

    Makes moving over files all smiles. Setting up a new Mac is easy. And if you have an iPhone, you’re already part of the way there. Just bring your iPhone nearby, and Setup Assistant can automatically sign you in to your Apple Account. It will transfer files, photos, messages, passwords, and more from iCloud right to your new Mac.

    If you’re transferring from a PC, Migration Assistant will walk you through the process and put your content right in place on Mac. Once everything is transferred over, your new Mac will be ready with what you need. And you can run Migration Assistant at first startup or anytime after that.

  • A powerful platform
    for AI.

    AI

    A powerful platform for AI. Thanks to Apple silicon, Mac brings you incredible AI performance for both on-device and cloud-based workflows. So you can harness all that AI has to offer and get more done every day.

    • Apple silicon makes it possible. The Neural Engine, along with a powerful CPU, GPU, and unified memory, efficiently handles on-device AI workloads. Mac uses the power of AI to boost your creativity and productivity. Which means your Mac excels at things like language processing, so you can use speech to text, and object recognition, so you can retouch photos or edit videos.

    • Privacy and security come first. Advanced security and privacy are built in to encrypt and protect your data. You can run AI locally on Mac, so your inputs and results stay yours.

    • A world of apps. An entire catalog of AI-powered apps is available on Mac, iPhone, and iPad, so you can boost your capabilities right away — and work seamlessly across devices. For example, use AI to summarize key takeaways in Goodnotes, automatically enhance photos in Pixelmator Pro, and remove background noise from a video with Adobe Premiere Pro.
  • Apple Intelligence and Siri AI.

    More personal.
    More powerful.5

    Apple Intelligence and Siri AI

    More personal. More powerful. The next generation of Apple Intelligence is centered around you, integrated into your apps, and built with privacy. Apple Intelligence powers Siri AI — an entirely new version of Siri that’s more personal, conversational, and powerful, along with helpful features across apps.5

    Siri AI is available in English.
    Usage limits may apply.

    Learn more about Apple Intelligence and Siri AI

    • Siri AI. Ask open-ended questions, brainstorm ideas, and engage in natural, back-and-forth conversations. Siri AI understands your personal context and can find answers to what you’re looking for just by asking. And it takes actions in apps like Messages, Music, Reminders, and more.

    • Next-level intelligent photo editing. Reframe a photo after it’s been taken with Spatial Reframing. Expand your shots with the Extend tool. And remove even larger objects with the enhanced Clean Up tool.

    • Write with Siri. Siri AI can generate a draft from scratch or provide feedback on what you’ve written. And in Messages and Mail, Siri AI can match your writing style, punctuation, and tone.

    • Describe a shortcut. Automate daily tasks with a simple description. Just describe what you need and Shortcuts connects actions across multiple apps to get it done.

    Great powers come with great privacy. Apple Intelligence and Siri AI are designed to protect your privacy at every step. With powerful on-device processing, Apple Intelligence is aware of your personal information without collecting your personal information. And with groundbreaking Private Cloud Compute, Apple Intelligence can draw on larger server-based models, without making your data accessible to Apple or anyone else.

    • Glare, beware. A nano-texture display option is available on iMac, MacBook Pro, and Studio Display models. It reduces reflections and glare to eliminate distractions — all while maintaining outstanding image quality. It’s ideal for challenging lighting conditions, like working under bright lights or in outdoor environments.

    • Show your true colors. True Tone automatically adapts the warmth of your display to match the ambient light, to make colors appear consistent in different lighting conditions.

For those who value value.
