T3: Apple’s MacBook Pro M4 is the ultimate upgrade for Intel and early Apple Silicon owners
14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro (M4 Pro and M4 Max)
Apple in October unveiled the new MacBook Pro, powered by the M4 family of chips — M4, M4 Pro, and M4 Max — delivering much faster performance and enhanced capabilities. The new MacBook Pro is built for Apple Intelligence, the personal intelligence system that transforms how users work, communicate, and express themselves, while protecting their privacy. Now available in space black and silver finishes, the 14-inch MacBook Pro includes the blazing-fast performance of M4 and three Thunderbolt 4 ports, starting with 16GB of memory, all at just $1,599. The 14- and 16-inch models with M4 Pro and M4 Max offer Thunderbolt 5 for faster transfer speeds and advanced connectivity. All models include a Liquid Retina XDR display that gets even better with an all-new nano-texture display option and up to 1000 nits of brightness for SDR content, an advanced 12MP Center Stage camera, along with up to 24 hours of battery life, the longest ever in a Mac.
Apple’s latest line of MacBook Pro models now feature the M4 silicon chip inside. This is either the standard M4 or one of the more advanced Pro or Max versions. I’ve used most of the generations of the Apple silicon over the years and it never ceases to impress me how fast and efficient they really are.
My work and home laptops both still run on Intel chips, and though they are still capable, the speed difference I saw in the M1 and M2 chips was incredible. The M4 family of chips go that much further though, providing both CPUs and GPUs that outperform their predecessors by considerable margin.
If you’ve been holding off on upgrading your MacBook, the M4 models could be the time to push that button. Not only do these new laptops offer the performance, but they are some of the best looking and well-specced too.
