Matlab R2025a Features a New User Interface
Contents
I have been using MATLAB for a long time and was quite happy until switching to the first Apple Silicon M1. Matlab’s full adoption took way longer than I expected. Finally, the R2025a version starts fast, runs fast on Apple Sicions (I only tested M4 Max), and is less laggy.
I think the transition from Java is completed since no Java version is detected on the version.
java -version
'Java is not enabled'|
'Java is not enabled'|
bench(3) returns incredible results (below). I hope Matlab will support it natively on other platforms that use Arm CPUs.


Additionally, the new version includes support for Copilot! I’m still testing it and will share my insights too.
