…another 3 years.

So, a pretty standard update cycle.

No, it got 2 years shorter. It was 5 years before.

I've already had it for one and half years. But yeah, still fairly standard.

Which is why Apple should have followed a 2 year refresh cycle for Macs. But they started moving to M3 within a year of launching M2.

Well the M3 isn’t released yet. So we aren’t on a yearly cycle. The M2 was released in June 22.

Besides this, I don’t think the intention of the “yearly” updates isn’t to push everyone to also update yearly. People are on different “update cycles”. If this one isn’t for you, it might be for someone els.
