Google Chrome gets version for Macs with Apple Silicon
New version of Chrome for Macs with Apple’s M1 chip is now available for download, with bug fixes
Google launched a new version of Chrome for Macs with Apple Silicon last Tuesday (17). However, after reports of failure by users, the distribution has ended. On Thursday (18), in the morning, another version was already available for download on the official browser page.

Chrome optimized for Macs with an M1 chip, like the new MacBook Pro and MacBook Air, promises smoother execution and should provide better performance in terms of processing speed. However, the version initially presented, last Tuesday, was causing unexpected crashes on some machines.
