2021 MacBook Pro 16″ M1 Max

Brutally Pro.

Meet the most powerful MacBook Pro ever created. For the first time, Apple designed chips specifically for professionals — debuting two of them at once: the insanely fast M1 Pro and the even faster M1 Max. Both deliver incredible battery life and groundbreaking performance.Complementing that power is the stunning Liquid Retina XDR display, the best camera and speaker system ever in a Mac, plus every port you could need.This extraordinary MacBook Pro handles demanding tasks like an absolute beast.

Pro taken to the max.

The M1 Pro and M1 Max chips take the incredible capabilities of the M1 architecture to new heights — bringing system-on-a-chip (SoC) architecture to a professional laptop for the first time. Both increase the number of CPU cores and GPU cores, as well as the amount of unified memory compared to M1. With a powerful Neural Engine that enhances machine learning and advanced media engines that support ProRes workflows, M1 Pro and M1 Max deliver possibilities never seen before for professional users.

Wildly fast. Up to 10-core CPU Up to 16-core GPU Up to 32GB unified memory Up to 200GB/s memory bandwidth	Even wilder. 10-core CPU Up to 32-core GPU Up to 64GB unified memory Up to 400GB/s memory bandwidth

 

Wildly fast.

The M1 Pro chip brings the exceptional capabilities of the M1 architecture to a new, higher level for professional users. With up to 10 CPU cores and up to 16 GPU cores, a 16-core Neural Engine, and dedicated encode and decode media engines supporting H.264, HEVC, and ProRes codecs, it handles even the most demanding projects with ease.

Even wilder.

With its 10-core CPU, up to 32-core GPU, and 16-core Neural Engine, M1 Max is the most powerful chip ever made for pro laptops. It doubles the graphics processing speed and memory bandwidth of M1 Pro. Its dedicated media engines — one decoder and two encoders for up to twice as fast video encoding — along with two ProRes accelerators, deliver even greater performance when handling multiple streams at once.

Choose your chip. Choose your size.
And go wild.

The new MacBook Pro is available in 14-inch and 16-inch models. Both sizes can be configured with either the M1 Pro or M1 Max chip, and both deliver unmatched performance for professional workflows. Work with millions of polygons in Cinema 4D, edit up to seven 8K ProRes video streams simultaneously in Final Cut Pro, or color grade 8K ProRes 4444 HDR video with ease — even when you’re away from the studio.

Lasts all day long.

Brutal performance with world-class battery life — that’s the incredible combination delivered by Apple silicon. On a single charge, you can compile up to four times more code in Xcode or edit photos in Lightroom Classic for up to twice as long. And unlike many other laptops, MacBook Pro delivers the same amazing performance on battery as it does plugged in.

When the pressure is on. The advanced thermal system moves 50% more air even at lower fan speeds. And thanks to the efficiency of Apple silicon, the fans often don’t need to turn on at all for many everyday tasks.	< br>
Fast and massive. The SSD offers astonishing read speeds of up to 7.4 GB/s — up to twice as fast as the previous generation. That means you can open 8K videos in an instant and store hundreds of thousands of RAW photos on your Mac.

 

A stunning XDR display.

Liquid Retina XDR. The best laptop display ever features extreme dynamic range and a 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio. It brings HDR photos, videos, and games to life with refined specular highlights, incredible shadow detail, and vivid, lifelike colors. Every display is factory calibrated and offers professional reference modes for HDR grading, photo workflows, design, and print production.

ProMotion.

ProMotion now comes to Mac, making everything from scrolling websites to gaming smoother and more responsive than ever — while also improving power efficiency. With adaptive refresh rates up to 120Hz, it automatically adjusts to the motion of the content. For video editing, you can also choose a fixed refresh rate that perfectly matches your footage.

Mini-LEDs. Thousands of mini-LEDs are grouped into individually controlled local dimming zones, allowing precise brightness and contrast control.

Advanced optical films and diffuser layers. Seven films and diffuser layers efficiently blend and shape light, even within this ultra-thin design.

High-mobility oxide TFT. The oxide thin-film transistor (TFT) delivers pixel charging speeds up to twice as fast as before, enabling refresh rates up to 120Hz.

LCD panel. The active display area extends closer to the edges, making the bezels up to 60% thinner and giving your content more room.

A remarkable 1080p HD camera.

Staying connected is more important than ever. That’s why the MacBook Pro camera now features double the resolution at 1080p, along with a larger aperture that lets in more light. The image sensor is bigger, and its pixels are more sensitive, helping the camera perform up to twice as well in low-light conditions.

Three studio-quality microphones. With microphones that have up to 60% lower noise floor, MacBook Pro can capture even the quietest sounds. The three-microphone array uses directional beamforming, so your voice always comes through clear and easy to hear.
Six-speaker audio system. Four force-cancelling woofers produce sound up to half an octave deeper than before, delivering up to 80% more bass. High-performance tweeters make vocals sound clearer and fuller.
Spatial Audio. With the immersive sound of the six-speaker system and advanced algorithms, MacBook Pro supports Spatial Audio when playing Dolby Atmos music and videos, creating a refined three-dimensional soundstage. Combined with the Liquid Retina XDR display, it’s like having a portable cinema.

 

Better connected than ever.

Transfer your photos and videos using the SDXC card reader. Connect TVs and displays through the HDMI port. Listen through the 3.5 mm headphone jack, which automatically detects high-impedance headphones and adapts to them. Use the three Thunderbolt 4 ports for high-performance accessories or external displays, and fast-charge your battery through the MagSafe 3 port with its quick-release magnetic connection.

A Pro keyboard for Pro users.

The Magic Keyboard features key travel that delivers the satisfying feel professionals love. For the first time on MacBook Pro, it includes a full-size function key row. You’ll also find dedicated shortcut keys for Spotlight, Dictation, and Do Not Disturb. The new Touch ID sensor with its tactile ring helps guide your finger into position, making secure unlocking of your Mac even faster and easier.
