And if you already own an Apple product like an iPhone, just enter your keychain ID and password. iCloud to access your photos, videos, documents and contacts in seconds. Finally, a migration wizard allows you to transfer in just a few clicks the information and files present on your old Mac or PC. And if you really can’t, 24/7 support is really there to help you by chat or phone.
2# Do you have an iPhone or an iPad? Then you already know the Mac!
Because Apple designs everything from product to software, they really are made to work together, effortlessly. The Mac interface will seem much more familiar to you than you imagined since the operating logic you are used to on your iPhone or iPad is very similar.
Not to mention the continuity between your iPhone and a Mac, which is simply stunning.

No need for a cable either to exchange files between your devices, the universal clipboard and the function AirDrop are here to make your life easier and save you time. Incorporating photos taken with your iPhone into a presentation or office document is also effortless, as if those shots were already on your computer. You can project documents and media files from your iPhone onto your Mac screen with a single tap. Function Annotate allows you to sign or annotate documents using the touch screen of your iPhone, as if you had a pen in your hand.
These are just a few examples of the enormous potential of the ecosystem offered by Apple products. Fluid and simple interactions: it’s magic!

Impossible to share the list: it is simply infinite.

4# Apple chips are high performance
By choosing to develop its own processors for laptops and desktops, Apple has taken a considerable advantage over its competitors. The M2 chip has the advantage of offering exceptional autonomy to Macs (up to 22 hours without recharging), far superior to that of laptops equipped with chips that are just as recent.
And since Apple designs a Mac from the ground up, its operating system and installed apps are all perfectly optimized for the M1 and M2 chips. As a result, Macs display excellent performance while being incredibly energy efficient. Finally, this state-of-the-art know-how makes it possible to integrate a powerful graphics controller (up to 38 processing units) which allows the user to play on a Mac without necessarily having an expensive dedicated graphics card.
5# Your personal data is really secure
From the M2 processor to the operating system macOS Ventura through the browser Safari, the security of personal data is at the heart of Apple’s concerns. User identification is facilitated by fingerprint recognition (Touch-ID) and frequent, automatic OS updates macOS are the guarantee of having a computer always safe from viruses and other dangers of the Web. If necessary, FileVault can encrypt all data stored on the Mac for even more security. Last example, but there are many more, the microphone of the Mac benefits from an automatic hardware disconnection when the screen of the computer is folded down. The guarantee of not being listened to by undesirables when you no longer use your computer. Smart.
6# An innovative OS and a sustainable design
With each new version of its operating system, macOS, Apple offers its users new functions that are always more practical, powerful and graphically elegant, in the form of automatic and completely free updates. So your Mac benefits from the latest software innovations year after year, as well as optimal and safe operation throughout its lifespan.
