Expensive but worth the price. This replaced a 2023 MacBook M2 Pro. I wanted a laptop that had more memory and hard drive space, along with the highest performance processor. That way I hope to be able to use this machine for many future years. So far with limited use over a few apps, performance is FAST!! Typical Apple quality and ease of use with great integration with other Apple devices.

Excellent machine so far. Good performance, super battery life (though I don't get quite the advertised amount). Love the new space black color though I would love to have the glowing apple or even a more distinct logo for the work to see. The single complaint I have is that it is 'heavy'. If it could shed 1/2 to 1 pound it would be ideal?given the performance I might opt for an Air model next time.

MacBook Pro blasts forward with the M3 Max chip. Built on 3-nanometer technology and featuring an all-new GPU architecture, they're the most advanced chips ever built for a personal computer. And each one brings more pro performance and capability.
M3 Max brings massive performance and capabilities for those with the most extreme workflows, featuring even more CPU and GPU cores, enormous unified memory, and additional Media Engine resources. It pushes the limits of what a computer can do - in the studio or on location. Intricate 3D rendering, video post-production on the highest-resolution content, developing transformer models with billions of parameters - the most intensive workflows become an absolute breeze.
Behold an entirely new class of GPU architecture. And the biggest breakthrough in graphics yet for Apple silicon. Dynamic Caching optimizes fast on-chip memory to dramatically increase average GPU utilization - driving a huge performance boost for the most demanding pro apps and games.
For the first time, MacBook Pro features hardware-accelerated ray tracing. Combined with the new graphics architecture, it enables pro apps to deliver up to two and a half times faster rendering performance and allows games to provide more realistic shadows and reflections.
MacBook Pro has the longest battery life ever in a Mac - up to 18 hours. That efficiency is the magic of Apple silicon. And all models remain just as fast whether plugged in or not. So wherever inspiration strikes or whenever duty calls, run with it.
Extreme Dynamic Range (XDR) brings refined specular highlights, incredible detail in shadows, and vibrant, true-to-life colors. Calibrated in the factory, each Liquid Retina XDR display also features ProMotion and pro reference modes.
It makes video calls feel more like the real thing - with technologies to help you look sharp in any light.
Captures the subtlest sounds in audio production and minimizes background noise so your voice comes through loud and clear.
Two pairs of force-cancelling woofers with two tweeters fill the room with sound. And Spatial Audio with Dolby Atmos creates a three-dimensional soundstage.
MacBook Pro packs a powerful array of ports for connecting high-speed peripherals, driving high-resolution displays, or directly offloading SDXC cards. And it supports both Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3.
The Magic Keyboard comes with a full-height function key row and Touch ID, which gives you a fast, easy, secure way to unlock your Mac and sign in to apps and sites.
