Apple's M4 has reportedly adopted the ARMv9 architecture

With the adoption of the ARMv9 architecture, which supports SME and SVE2, allowing the M4 to run more complex workloads efficiently

According to YouTuber Vadim Yuryev, the M4 is now made using the ARMv9 instructions set, which is superior to NEON and allows the chipset to run complex workloads efficiently. The content creator is not the only one who shared similar findings on X because a tipster going by the handle@negativeonehero also revealed through an external rumor that the M4 has support for SME or Scalable Matrix Extension. This claim suggests that Qualcomm’s upcoming SoC could potentially be slower than the A18 Pro since the latter is also said to switch to the ARMv9 architecture, granting it similar performance attributes to the M4.
