MacBook Pro 14 2025 Review: What’s Surprising About Apple’s New Product

The release of the MacBook Pro 14 based on the M5 processor is not just another update, but a moment when technology takes a step forward, ushering in a new era of productivity. Apple’s flagship laptop is designed for those looking for a device with maximum power, impressive battery life, and a perfect display. Find out what features the updated MacBook Pro 14 has to offer in our article.

Release Date and Sales Launch

Apple unveiled the new MacBook on October 15, 2025, shortly after its main fall presentation. We will announce when the device will be available in Georgia separately — stay tuned for updates on our website and Instagram. But even before the sales launch, one thing is clear: this is the most powerful and most anticipated laptop of the year for anyone who works with graphics, video, code, complex scientific and technical programs, and any resource-intensive tasks.

Screen

The 14.2-inch Liquid Retina XDR display still has a peak brightness of up to 1600 nits in HDR mode, which will be appreciated by designers, colorists, video editors, and those working with high-definition content. However, the new version has optimized color reproduction and energy efficiency, making images even more natural.

The brightness in SDR reaches 1000 nits, allowing you to work comfortably with text and graphics even in sunny weather outdoors. ProMotion technology and a refresh rate of 120 Hz guarantee even smoother scrolling.

If you decide to upgrade your MacBook, be sure to check out the nano-texture coating, which is available in a separate version — with it, you can forget about glare on the screen. Nanotechnology does not compromise the brightness and clarity of the image, which can be rendered in millions of color nuances on the MacBook Pro M5. You can also connect up to two high-resolution external displays to it.

Weight and Dimensions

Portability is one of the advantages of this new product. The device remains just as compact: measuring 0.61×12.31×8.71 inches, it weighs only 1.55 kg. If you often work outside the office or at home, this laptop will be your ideal companion.

Processor

The processor is the main pride of the updated Apple MacBook Pro 14. It is the first model in the manufacturer’s series to receive a new generation chip — the M5. It includes 10 CPU cores, 10 GPU cores, and 16 Neural Engine cores. Here, the manufacturer has focused on increasing power, especially for graphics tasks, and improving AI performance.

What you should know about this year’s processor:

1. The central processing unit (CPU) is 20% faster than the previous generation. You can edit multiple 8K videos simultaneously, render complex 3D scenes in minutes, compile code in Xcode, and work with other demanding professional applications.
2. The graphics processing unit (GPU) with neural amplifier works with graphics 6.8 times faster than the M1 version, including image and model processing in Draw Things and LM Studio, and third-generation ray tracing makes light, reflections, and shadows even more realistic.
3. The powerful Neural Engine built into the processor has made working with AI more productive. The device is significantly faster at automatically processing images and text and performing many other machine learning tasks.

If you have a device from the same line but with an M1 chip, the new model will definitely surprise you with its performance, which has increased 6 times in artificial intelligence tasks and 2 times in overall processor performance. And when compared to Intel-based models, the CPU now performs 5.5 times better, and the gadget delivers up to 86 times higher performance in AI tasks.

Memory

The base configuration of the new 2025 MacBook Pro 14 includes 16 GB of RAM and a 512 GB SSD. However, the storage capacity can be increased to 4 TB if desired. Configurations with 14 and 32 GB of unified memory are also available.

Video and Camera Capabilities

The 12 MP camera with Center Stage technology and Desk View support makes the MacBook a convenient device for video conferencing. The Desk View option allows you to be in the frame and show your desktop, such as documents or a presentation, to your conversation partner at the same time. Center Stage keeps you in the center of the frame during video calls, even if you move around.

Audio and Input Devices

The six-speaker system with Spatial Audio technology creates deep, immersive sound that lets you dive into your content and precisely control the sound when creating music or editing audio files.

The model retains the Magic Keyboard with backlighting and an improved travel mechanism. It also features a Force Touch trackpad that recognizes the force of your touch, which is especially convenient for graphics processing.

Features and Extra Information

Thanks to the energy efficiency of the new processor, the gadget can work without recharging for up to 24 hours — among the brand’s current models, only the M4 Pro chip model has such performance indicators.

The presence of an HDMI port with high-resolution support and an SDXC slot makes this model an excellent work tool for those engaged in photography and video. Let’s conclude the review with a comparison of the specifications of two particularly powerful models from this manufacturer.
