M4 MacBook Pro GPU Benchmark Posts A 7 Percent Higher Score Than M4 iPad Pro, Along With A 15 Percent Lead Over The M3 Models
The benchmark leaks surrounding the M4 MacBook Pro are arriving in droves because just a few hours have passed since we got a first look at Geekbench 6’s single-core and multi-core results, and the Metal benchmark is already out, showing us how the M4’s 10-core GPU performs under synthetic workloads. While some of you might be confident that the graphics processor will likely perform identically to the part running in Apple’s 11-inch and 13-inch iPad Pro models, a slight performance difference exists for various reasons.
Upcoming M4 MacBook Pro was tested with a 10-core GPU configuration in Geekbench 6 Metal and is likely the same model that posted the single-core and multi-core results previously
Comparing the Geekbench 6 Metal scores of the M4 MacBook Pro, M4 iPad Pro, and last year’s M3 MacBook Pro, the latest leak reveals that Apple’s upcoming portable obtains 57,603 points, while the flagship tablet secured 53,669 points, despite featuring the exact same chipset with a 10-core GPU configuration. The only explanation we have for this difference is that the M4 MacBook Pro’s active cooling solution with a fan helps to post a higher result.

Given that the M4 iPad Pro is exceptionally thin, it is power-constrained, meaning that the SoC cannot properly flex its muscles. As for the M3 MacBook Pro that launched late last year, we see that the latter achieved a score of 49,890, making the M4 MacBook Pro over 15 percent faster in this specific test. We can also conclude that this was an ‘apples to apples’ comparison because the M3 is equipped with a 10-core GPU, like its successor.
It is possible that this M4 MacBook Pro was the same one tested by a Russian YouTuber because when we cross-checked the Geekbench 6 single-core and multi-core scores from earlier, they were exactly the same. Fortunately, synthetic
