Apple has unveiled the new 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models powered by M4, M4 Pro, and M4 Max chips-an impressive upgrade. The manufacturer calls it the best professional laptop in the world. With astronomical performance, increased RAM, Apple Intelligence support, and a 12-megapixel camera with Center Stage.

M4, M4 Pro, and M4 Max chips – A quantum leap in performance

The M4 series chips are the most advanced processors for professional laptops today, built on 2nd-generation 3-nanometer technology. They bring content creation, software development, modeling, and all PC tasks to an entirely new level.

The new MacBook Pro is built for Apple Intelligence. Its enhanced Neural Engine cores (three times more powerful than in M1) enable smooth neural network operations. Currently, Apple Intelligence is available only in U.S. English and requires macOS Sequoia 15.1. New neural network features will launch in December.

The 14-inch models come with M4, M4 Pro, and M4 Max chips, while the 16-inch models are limited to M4 Pro and M4 Max, all surpassing their predecessors by far.

Base MacBook Pro with M4 chip

Thanks to the new chip and increased memory bandwidth of up to 120 GB/s, this model is significantly faster than previous 13-inch models:

ProcessSpeed Comparison
Editing gigapixel photos1.8x faster than M1
Rendering complex scenes in Blender3.4x faster than M1
Image processing in Affinity PhotoUp to 7x and 1.8x faster than Intel Core i7 and M1
3D rendering in BlenderUp to 10.9x and 3.4x faster than Intel Core i7 and M1
Working with scenes in Adobe Premiere Pro9.8x and 1.7x faster than Intel Core i7 and M1

You can simultaneously open many windows, edit 4K videos, play games, and hold video calls with colleagues or friends. Applications using neural networks will perform at lightning speed.

MacBook Pro with M4 Pro – Even faster

Compared to the M1 Pro, the M4 Pro’s memory bandwidth increased by 75%, allowing resource-intensive software to run more efficiently.

TaskCompared to Intel Core i9 and M1 Pro
Rendering with Maxon Redshift4x and 3x higher performance
Dynamic systems modeling in MATLAB5x and 2.2x faster
Base recognition in DNA sequencing with MinKNOWUp to 23.8x and 1.8x faster

With this model, you can edit 8K video, process gigapixel panoramas, compile millions of lines of code, design engineering structures, and interact seamlessly with Apple Intelligence.

Ultimate performance with MacBook Pro and M4 Max

With an enormous number of CPU and GPU cores, large RAM, and a memory bandwidth of 546 GB/s, this laptop can handle any project-even those that previously required an advanced desktop computer.

TaskCompared to MacBook Pro with Intel Core i9 and M1 Max
Rendering scenes in Maxon RedshiftUp to 7.8x and 3.5x more productive
Code compilation in Xcode4.6x and 2.2x higher performance
Video processing in Topaz Video AIUp to 30.8x and 1.6x faster

This top-tier model is perfect for neural networks, 3D content rendering, 8K video editing, and running virtual models. It performs exceptionally well with large language models (LLMs) containing up to 200 billion parameters.

The new Media Engine with two ProRes accelerators enables instant editing of 4K video at 120 frames per second, shot on the new iPhone 16 Pro.

Other features of the MacBook Pro M4 series

The powerful hardware isn’t the only improvement:

  • Increased RAM: The base model now starts with 16 GB of RAM, ideal for demanding applications and Apple Intelligence. The M4 Max version can expand up to 128 GB of RAM.
  • Color Choices: Available in stunning Silver and Space Black, with 100% recycled aluminum chassis and eco-friendly wood fiber packaging.
  • External Display Support: Supports two external displays, or up to four on M4 Max models, all with the main screen open.
  • Liquid Retina XDR Display Brightness: 1000 nits for SDR content and 1600 nits for high-contrast HDR content, visible even in sunlight. Optional nano-texture coating is available to reduce glare.
  • Thunderbolt Ports: Three Thunderbolt 4 ports on the base model, while M4 Pro and M4 Max models come with Thunderbolt 5 for data transfers up to 120 GB/s, perfect for connecting a music studio via a single cable.
  • 12 MP Camera: Excellent visibility during video calls, even in low light, with Center Stage to keep you centered and Desk View to show items on your desk.
  • Studio-quality Mics and Spatial Audio System: Great for calls, watching movies, and listening to music.
  • Record-breaking Battery Life: Work, connect, and create anywhere with up to 24 hours without a charger.

All models feature an HDMI port (supports up to 8K), a headphone jack, an SDXC card slot, and a MagSafe 3 charging port. They support Bluetooth 5.3 and Wi-Fi 6 for stable connections and fast file downloads.

Choosing the right MacBook Pro with M4

The MacBook Pro M4 will be appreciated by students, entrepreneurs, musicians, artists, and photographers. The base model can handle all tasks that require a professional laptop, including video, audio, graphics, and photo editing.

The MacBook Pro with M4 Pro is a powerful tool for developers, researchers, engineers, and other professionals. It allows for high-resolution video rendering, code compilation, and 2D and 3D design in AutoCAD and Blender.

The MacBook Pro with M4 Max is a phenomenally productive laptop for scientists, artists, designers, and composers. It can handle any workload, including 3D animation and movie sound production. It’s arguably the best portable computer for neural network work.
