Every Apple Mac that uses a Core M processor -- also called a Core M CPU (Central Processing Unit) -- is listed below.

Apple first released Macs that use the Core M processor in 2015 and continued to sell Macs that use this processor until 2016. The Core M processor only was used once, for a redesigned MacBook line.

Click on a specific model for its complete technical specs, configuration options, identification details, performance benchmarks, original price in dozens of countries, and more.

Asterisks indicate that particularly important details are provided on the applicable specs page. Also note that configurations listed are the default or most common; many models have multiple options. Refer to the specs page for full details.
