Summary

MacBook Pro. Big screen. Max power.

The new MacBook Pro delivers game-changing performance for pro users. Choose the powerful M1 Pro or the even more powerful M1 Max to supercharge pro-level workflows while getting amazing battery life.¹ And with an immersive 16-inch Liquid Retina XDR display and an array of pro ports, you can do more than ever with MacBook Pro.²

Scary faster

M1 Max is the most powerful chip ever created for a pro notebook, with 10 CPU cores, up to 32 GPU cores, and a 16-core Neural Engine. It delivers two times faster graphics processing and double the memory bandwidth of M1 Pro. And it has a dedicated media engine for decode and two for encode, with up to two times faster video encoding, and two ProRes accelerators for even higher multistream performance.

Feast your eyes on XDR

Liquid Retina XDR. The best display ever in a notebook features Extreme Dynamic Range and a million to one contrast ratio. HDR content comes to life in photos, video, and games, with refined specular highlights, incredible detail in shadows, and vibrant, true-to-life colors. Each display is factory calibrated and features pro reference modes for HDR color grading, photography, design, and print production.

Heads up — the Camera’s 1080p HD.

Staying connected is more important than ever. That’s why the new MacBook Pro camera has double the resolution, 1080p, and uses a lens with a wider aperture that lets in more light. Together with a larger image sensor that has more efficient pixels, the camera delivers two times better low‑light performance.

Pro power meets pro keyboard.

For the first time, Magic Keyboard brings a full‑height function key row to MacBook Pro, with the tactile feel of mechanical keys that pros love. It includes new keyboard shortcuts for Spotlight, Siri, Dictation, and Do Not Disturb. And Touch ID has a new, tactile ring that guides your finger for a fast, easy, secure way to unlock your Mac.
