<p>Apple developers have started (https://twitter.com/adrianthomas/status/1277562226677821441) receiving (https://twitter.com/TillSchadde/status/1277539893896450049/photo/1) their Developer Transition Kit hardware, which Apple is distributing to developers to help them get their apps ready for the upcoming range of Apple Silicon Macs, which will replace Intel CPUs with Apple-designed ARM CPUs.</p>
<p>Despite the confidentiality clauses in the developer agreement, benchmarks for the Developer Transition Kit have already surfaced on Geekbench (https://browser.geekbench.com/v5/cpu/search?q=eperm-d995af6e2ef02771). Note that these tests are running under virtualization, using Apple’s Rosetta technology, as the Geekbench testing software has not yet been optimised for Apple Silicon.</p>
