In even-numbered years, the new version is a radical upgrade with a new look and major changes under the hood. The Mac gets a new OS release every year in the fall. I haven’t had a chance to try out Monterey on the new new MacBook Pro models announced this month, the first hardware specifically designed for Monterey.Īpple’s macOS releases tend to follow a pattern that Apple has never talked about, but which is clearly how its developers think. If you’re using an Intel Mac, you may find more. Apple hasn’t spelled out all the differences between platforms, so some of these I found by accident. Some Monterey features work only on M1 Macs, and I’ve mentioned the ones that I’ve noticed.
I tested it on an M1 MacBook Pro made in 2020 and a 2015-vintage Intel MacBook Pro, where Monterey worked smoothly and quickly-and seemed to run at least as fast as earlier versions, perhaps even better, a sign that Apple hasn’t abandoned support of Intel Macs. It won’t run on the low-end 2015 MacBook, but it will run on a few older desktop machines, including the late-2014 Mac mini and the late 2013 Mac Pro. Monterey runs on almost any Mac released in 2015 or later. You won't lose anything by waiting.īest on Apple Silicon, Still Excellent on Intel Even with the vast number of beta testers who tried out Monterey, some obscure problem always slips through. Thinking of Upgrading? There's No HurryĪs with every new macOS release, cautious users will wait a few weeks until at least the first point release update before upgrading any system used for work. There's a lot to like in this new version of macOS, but that doesn't mean you need to rush to install it, however. If your Mac supports Monterey, and you're running an earlier version, the System Preferences app will prompt you to upgrade to the new version. To cut immediately to the chase, Monterey is a stable, secure upgrade that adds convenience and sharing features that almost every Mac owner will want. This follows four months of Monterey being available as a public beta and comes sooner than most of us expected.
