Apple is gradually making its way to completely transition to its custom silicon from Intel. The company introduced the new M1 Pro and M1 Max chips only a few months ago with the launch of its new 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models. The new chips deliver enhanced performance and battery life and we have seen several tests that praise them. In honor of completing the first year of Apple Silicon transition, the company is gifting its engineering team special t-shirts who worked on the M1 chip.

Apple first announced its transition to its custom chips back in June of 2021 and released the M1 chip in November. According to Apple, the transition from Intel to its custom chips will take a total of two years. The last products Apple upgraded were the new 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models with M1 Pro and M1 Max chips.
