The base-configuration 16-inch MacBook Pro is $100 more expensive than its predecessor, and prices increase steeply when you add the M1 Max processor option along with the extraordinary amounts of memory (up to 64GB!) and storage (up to 8TB!) that Apple offers. What’s more, nearly all of the standard and optional features of the 16-inch MacBook Pro...
It’s not often that input and output ports become a headlining feature on a laptop, but it’s certainly the case with the new MacBook Pro. Five years ago, Apple ditched most of the ports on its laptops, doubling down on USB-C/Thunderbolt. The internet complained endlessly, with reviewers and commenters complaining that laptops need more than just on...
To many Apple users' chagrin, the 2016-to-2020 MacBook Pros lacked physical connections, and they piled on the controversy with a unique touch-screen interface known as the Touch Bar. A thin strip of touch-enabled screen that replaces the row of function keys on the keyboard, the Touch Bar is a controversial means of adding touch capabilities to ma...
With the new I/O mix and the addition of the M1 Pro or M1 Max processor, the XDR screen technology on the 16-inch MacBook Pro is its next-most-buzzworthy feature. XDR in Apple lingo is for “extreme dynamic range,” its marketing term for what many other OEMs refer to as "high dynamic range," or HDR. There’s a lot to unpack here around the Liquid Ret...
As mentioned earlier, the new 16-inch and 14-inch MacBook Pros alike have a "notch"—a downward projection—in the middle of the top edge of the screen to accommodate the camera. There’s nothing new about notches in a larger sense, as Apple pioneered this approach years ago with the Apple iPhone Xso that the screen bezels could be shaved down while s...
Underneath the hood, the 16-inch MacBook Pro offers a significantly improved version of the Apple M1 processor launched last year in the 13-inch model, in one of two flavors: M1 Pro, or M1 Max. The base configuration comes with an M1 Pro with 10 CPU cores—eight of which are dedicated to resource-intensive tasks like rendering or compiling code, whi...
To see why, check out the chart below, which shows performance on non-Apple-specific workflows such as transcoding video in the open-source Handbrake app, rendering 3D images using Blender and Maxon’s Cinebench, or simulating various everyday tasks using the Geekbench Pro CPU benchmark. All of these scenarios can be done on a Windows laptop or a Ma...
One of the best features of previous MacBook Pros is that they’ve been able to wring out marathon battery life despite using power-hungry CPUs and GPUs. The opposite is true of the most powerful Windows workstations and gaming laptops, which typically last for only a few hours before needing a recharge. This state of affairs stands with the 16-inch...
Are portability and affordability secondary considerations for you, versus raw power and getting the most possible screen space? If so, the 16-inch MacBook Pro could be a better option than its new 14-inch sibling because of its bigger screen, higher floor for CPU options, and potentially better thermals given its bigger chassis. But it doesn’t off...
