To complement the launch of its new high-performance M1 Pro and M1 Max processors, Apple has introduced a new range of MacBook Pro laptops equipped with up to 64 GB of RAM and equipped with options to install both M1 Pro and Max chips and available in 14 and 16 inch versions. “MacBook Pro delivers groundbreaking processing, graphics, and machine learning (ML) performance whether running on battery or plugged in, as well as amazing battery life” explains Apple.
The MacBook Pro 14-inch model delivers up to 17 hours of video playback, while the 16-inch model offers a massive 21 hours of video playback, 10 hours more than previous MacBook Pro laptops and offering “the longest battery life ever on a Mac notebook” says Apple. The new Apple MacBook Pro laptops are now available to order and will start shipping out to customers on October 26th 2021.
New Apple MacBook Pro with M1 Pro and M1 Max
“We set out to create the world’s best pro notebook, and today we’re excited to introduce the all-new MacBook Pro with M1 Pro and M1 Max — a game-changing combination of phenomenal performance, unrivalled battery life, and groundbreaking features,” said Greg Joswiak, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing. “The all-new MacBook Pro adds a breathtaking XDR display, more ports like MagSafe 3, an advanced 1080p camera, and a sensational six-speaker sound system, all in a stunning new design. The new MacBook Pro simply has no equal and is by far the best pro notebook we’ve ever built.”
To give you an idea of the increase in speed with the new Apple M1 Pro and M1 Max processors which leave Intel’s offerings in the dust. Apple has provided a few indications of the extra performance you can expect when using the new hardware.
