And now for what many have been waiting for, the new M1 MacBook Pros. These are armed w/ the new M1 Pro & M1 Max CPUs to grant you even more power + graphics but that’s far from the entire story on the new Macs. Let’s dive into it all.
So for starters, it resembles the MacBooks of the many years past w/ a thicker chassis. So we got w/ a variable 120Hz ProMotion mini LED display w/ up to 1000 nits, raised feet, the TouchPad removed, raised keys + the return of the Function row on the keyboard, a new notch w/ a 1080p camera w/ better low-light, 3 studio quality mics, a 60% louder sound output thanks to their new 6 speaker sound system w/ spatial audio, 3 Thunderbolt 4 USB-C ports, HDMI, SD card slot, MagSafe 3 port but can still charge via Thunderbolt 4, and a 3.5mm headphone jack.
Now for the differences, we got the 3.5lb 14inch MacBook Pro which offers a 3024 x 1964 resolution, choice of the new M1 Pro + M1 Max CPU, & up to 17 hours of video playback. While the 4.7lbs 16inch MacBook Pro offers a 3456 x 2234 resolution, M1 Pro + M1 Max CPU options, and 21 hours of video playback. The 14inch model starts at $1999 while the 16inch model starts at $2,499 both w/ an M1 Pro CPU, 16GB of RAM, & 512GB SSD.
You can pre-order yours now as the base models will go on sale next week. So is this what you’ve been waiting for in regards to the M1 MacBook Pros?
