How can you redefine your computing experience With the MacBook Pro 16.2" featuring a Liquid Retina XDR Display, M3 Max Chip with a 16-Core CPU and 40-Core GPU, 64GB Memory, and a 4TB SSD. This late 2023 model, presented in a sleek Space Black finish, is designed to deliver unparalleled performance and portability.
The MacBook Pro is powered by the M3 Max chips, the most advanced chips ever built for a personal computer. These chips, built on 3-nanometer technology, bring more pro performance and capability. The M3 Max is designed for those with the most extreme workflows, offering massive performance with its 16-core CPU and 40-core GPU. It supports up to four external displays and delivers up to 11x faster performance than Intel-based models and up to 2.5x faster than the M1 Max model.
The MacBook Pro introduces a new class of GPU architecture, offering game-changing graphics performance. Dynamic Caching optimizes fast on-chip memory to dramatically increase average GPU utilization, providing a huge performance boost for the most demanding pro apps and games. Hardware-accelerated mesh shading enables games to render more visually complex scenes.
For the first time, the MacBook Pro features hardware-accelerated ray tracing, enabling pro apps to deliver up to two and a half times faster rendering performance. This allows games to provide more realistic shadows and reflections. The next-generation CPU cores drive a super responsive experience while maintaining incredible power efficiency.
The MacBook Pro boasts the longest battery life ever in a Mac, up to 22 hours. This efficiency is the magic of Apple silicon, allowing you to work or play wherever inspiration strikes or duty calls. With thousands of apps optimized to unlock the full power of macOS and Apple silicon, the M3 chips accelerate performance like never before.
The Liquid Retina XDR display offers Extreme Dynamic Range (XDR), bringing refined specular highlights, incredible detail in shadows, and vibrant, true-to-life colors. ProMotion technology makes everything from scrolling to gaming superfluid and responsive, with refresh rates up to 120Hz.
The MacBook Pro also features a 1080p camera for crisp, clear video calls, a studio-quality three-mic array for capturing subtle sounds, and a six-speaker sound system for immersive audio. It packs a powerful array of ports for connecting high-speed peripherals, driving high-resolution displays, or directly offloading SDXC cards. It supports both Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3.
The Magic Keyboard comes with a full-height function key row and Touch ID, providing a fast, easy, secure way to unlock your Mac and sign in to apps and sites. Your fingerprint data is converted into an encrypted mathematical representation, eliminating the need to remember passwords.
The MacBook Pro seamlessly integrates with your iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch, allowing you to answer calls or messages, copy images, video, or text, and access your favorite files across devices. You can even start a project on your iPad and continue it on your Mac, or log in to your Mac automatically when you're wearing your Apple Watch. This is more than just a laptop; it's a revolution in personal computing.
