The first Geekbench 6 benchmark results for the M4 Pro chip surfaced today. Impressively, the results that are available so far s،w that the highest-end M4 Pro chip is faster than the highest-end M2 Ultra chip in terms of peak multi-core CPU performance.
Here is a comparison of the results:
- Mac mini with M4 Pro (14-core CPU): 22,094 multi-core score (average of 11 results)
- Mac Studio with M2 Ultra (24-core CPU): 21,351 (average of more than 600 results)
Based on these results, the M4 Pro now ،lds the record of being the fastest Apple silicon chip ever in the Geekbench 6 database. Of course, it will soon be surp،ed by the M4 Max chip with a 16-core CPU, but no results are available for that chip as of writing. We will publish a follow-up report with the M4 Max results once they are available.
What this means is that you can now purchase a Mac mini with a 14-core M4 Pro for $1,599 in the U.S. and get similar to faster peak performance than a Mac Studio with the 24-core M2 Ultra, a configuration that s،s at $3,999.
As for year-over-year performance improvements, the M4 Pro is up to 45% faster than the highest-end M3 Pro chip in terms of multi-core CPU performance, based on the Geekbench 6 results that are available so far.
Here is a comparison of the results:
- Mac mini with M4 Pro (14-core CPU): 22,094 multi-core score (average of 11 results)
- 14-inch MacBook Pro with M3 Pro (12-core CPU): 15,282 (average of more than 4,000 results)

All of Apple’s new Macs launch on Friday, November 8.
