Google is launching a new Chrome browser for MacBooks with Apple’s M1 chip
Google is gearing up to launch a new Chrome browser for new MacBooks with Apple’s M1 chip. This Chrome version will run natively on Apple’s ARM-based devices. If you download and try to install Chrome on a new MacBook, you will have the option to either choose a version for Mac with Intel chip or Mac with Apple chip. This has been confirmed by Chrome product manager Mark Chang.
While Google has already rolled out the new version of Chrome, users may find some difficulty using it as it’s unstable. “Earlier today we updated our Chrome download page to include a new version of Chrome optimized for new macOS devices featuring an Apple processor. We’ve discovered that the version of Chrome made available for download today may crash unexpectedly. This should only affect users who have installed Chrome today, and only on new macOS devices with an Apple processor,” said Google in its support page.
