It will probably take a little while for Mac apps to be updated to support the ProMotion display. Movies and TV shows made in HDR consistently surprise me with extra-bright peaks. HDR images that I’m used to viewing on my iPhone or iPad now display just as well on this screen. In other words, this is a 120-hertz ProMotion display with a wide color gamut, backlit by mini-LED display technology that allows it to run bright and peak even brighter, while also maintaining black levels that contribute to a remarkably extended level of dynamic range. Apple has moved the MacBook Pro to the same technology it’s using in the 12.9-inch iPad Pro. In another laptop, the display would be the entire story.

(Apple has even migrated the name of the product, previously labeled right below the screen, to an etched area on the bottom of the computer.) A gorgeous display, plus menu bar The notch lives in the menu bar, which gets it out of the way (of everything but menu bar items). The keyboard also reminds me of the Titanium PowerBook and other early Mac laptops, in that it’s got black keys placed in a black key well-in contrast to Apple’s previous design, in which the metal between the keys was the same color as the rest of the shell.Įven the screen reminds me of the Titanium PowerBook-it’s thin, but feels solid, and the borders around the screen are much smaller than on previous MacBook Pros.

Apple has undone its mistakes of the past few years and created a laptop that’s essentially a Mac Pro you can slide into a backpack. And I’m happy to report, it’s true-all of it. I’ve spent the last week with a 14-inch MacBook Pro with an M1 Max processor with 32 GPU cores and 64 GB of RAM. There’s a different sort of elegance to be found in versatility. When you’re designing a tool for professionals to use-and make no mistake, these MacBook Pros are serious tools for serious jobs and priced accordingly-function should always win out over form.

These new MacBook Pros are a success story not just because of Apple’s custom-built processors, but because Apple has admitted (in deeds, if not words) that the previous generation of laptops were a misstep. These are the first high-end Macs to be powered by Apple-designed processors, and that’s a big deal-but they also reject the minimalist design mid-2010s Apple, which achieved design simplicity by forcing complexity and frustration on users.
