2021 MacBook Pro 16″ M1 Pro

 

Brutally Pro.

Introducing the most powerful MacBook Pro ever made. For the first time, Apple designed chips specifically for professionals — and launched two at once: the insanely fast M1 Pro and the even faster M1 Max. Both deliver incredible battery life and groundbreaking performance. Add the stunning Liquid Retina XDR display, the best camera and speaker system ever in a Mac, plus every port you need, and you get a MacBook Pro beast built to dominate demanding tasks.

 

Pro taken to the max.

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

 

Wildly fast.

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

 

Even more beastly.

With its 10-core CPU, up to 32-core GPU, and 16-core Neural Engine, M1 Max is the most powerful chip ever built for professional laptops. It doubles the graphics performance and memory bandwidth of M1 Pro. Its dedicated media engines — one decoder and two encoders, enabling up to twice the video encoding speed — plus two ProRes accelerators deliver even greater power when handling multiple video 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, and grade 8K ProRes 4444 HDR footage with ease — even when you’re working far from the studio.

 

Lasts all day.

Brutal performance with world-class battery life — that’s the incredible combination made possible 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 power as it does when plugged in.

 

 

A breathtaking XDR display.

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

ProMotion.

ProMotion has arrived on Mac, making everything from web browsing 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 your content. For video editing, you can also choose fixed refresh rates that precisely match your footage.

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

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

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

LCD panel. The active display area has been pushed closer to the edges, reducing bezels by up to 60% and giving your content more room to shine.

 

 

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 compared to before, along with a wider aperture that lets in more light. The image sensor is larger, and its pixels are more sensitive, allowing the camera to perform up to twice as well in low-light conditions.

 

 

Better connected than ever.

Transfer photos and videos with the SDXC card reader. Connect TVs and displays through the HDMI port. Enjoy audio through the 3.5 mm headphone jack, which automatically detects high-impedance headphones and adjusts accordingly. Use the three Thunderbolt 4 ports for high-performance peripherals or external displays, while the MagSafe 3 port enables fast charging and quick-release convenience.

 

 

A Pro keyboard for Pro users.

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