Hey there! So, there’s a new macOS version on the horizon, but not every MacBook will be able to enjoy all the new features.
When macOS Sequoia drops later this year, it will bring some cool stuff, like iPhone screen mirroring to MacBooks. The good news is that if your MacBook supports macOS Sonoma, you should be good to go without needing to upgrade. But wait, there’s a catch!
So, what’s the deal with macOS Sequoia and older MacBooks? Let’s break it down.
What’s Missing for Intel MacBooks
If you’re rocking an Intel MacBook, there are a couple of features you won’t be able to enjoy, mainly related to Apple Intelligence.
1. Live Audio Transcriptions in Notes
With the new macOS, you can record notes in the Apple Notes app and have them automatically transcribed by AI. Unfortunately, this nifty feature is reserved for M1 MacBooks or newer models. Sorry, Intel users!
2. Apple Intelligence
Intel MacBook users will miss out on Apple Intelligence, including cool collaborations with ChatGPT and maybe Google Gemini. This is because Intel chips don’t have a neural engine, limiting the scope of AI capabilities. Bummer for those with older devices!
