Talk:MacOS Big Sur

"Apple SoC" is ARM64; if the specific SoC is mentioned here, then surely for example Windows 8 ARM should instead be "nVidia Tegra, Qualcomm SoC"? 92.40.186.90 09:45, 23 June 2020 (UTC)

Apple SOC is apple's version of ARM64, i will change it to say arm64 (Apple SOC). BenjiMadden7850 (talk) 09:48, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
"Apple SoC" is a new arch, just like iphoneos-arm TipzTeam (talk) 09:48, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
ok thanks for the info BenjiMadden7850 (talk) 09:49, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
iOS devices have been ARM64 for a while, and the ARM64 Mac Mini devkit supposedly uses the A12X, same as the latest iPad Pro. 92.1.215.30 10:01, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
It should be called whatever uname -a calls it, except of course nobody posted that yet, so I just added "Apple SoC" there. Perhaps "Apple Silicon" would be better in the meantime, as that's the official name of the platform? --Ryuzaki (talk | contribs) 13:17, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
Ok, I just changed it to Apple Silicon, is that ok? BenjiMadden7850 (talk) 13:19, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
Looks like it is arm64 after all. --Ryuzaki (talk | contribs) 21:22, 23 June 2020 (UTC)

I've already watched the video you provided before, and from what I found, this build is, in fact, a real build since it runs on a 2020 Developer Transition Kit. However, the build in particular is earlier than build 20A5299w since it still identifies itself as version 10.16, which was later changed to 11.0.

Someone on bilibili uploaded screenshots of of 20A2261g and its Apple Internal apps from a Developer Transition Kit (DTK) prototype.

Interestingly it still had the Catalina GUI and About This Mac fails to display information of the A12Z correctly. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 42.200.158.66 (talkcontribs)
