First Look - MacBook Pro




Supercharged by Apple M-series chips, the MacBook Pro lineup redefines pro notebooks. The 13-inch model features a brilliant Retina display, incredible performance, and all-day battery life thanks to the Apple M2 chip, the start of the second generation of the M-series chips. The 14-inch and 16-inch models with M1 Pro and M1 Max offer even more performance, extraordinary battery life, high-performance ports, and a stunning and expansive Liquid Retina XDR display. And every model delivers an amazing audio experience with features like Spatial Audio. No other notebook lineup offers the same performance, capability, and battery life.
