Key Takeaways
- The new MacBook Pro has M4, M4 Pro, or M4 Max chip options with upgrades in RAM and storage options.
- Pricing for the entry-level M4 MacBook Pro starts at $1600.
- The MacBook Pro design remains unchanged, retaining the same look as models from previous years, just with a new space black color.
Apple has officially revealed the M4 MacBook Pro. This is the third Mac announcement from Apple this week, following the M4 iMac and M4 Mac Mini.
The new MacBook Pro features an M4, M4 Pro, or M4 Max chip. The 14-inch entry-level model features a 10-core CPU/10-core GPU. The 14-inch M4 model starts at $1,600 and the base 14-inch M4 Pro model starts at $2,000. The base 14-inch M4 Max model starts at $3,200. The base 16-inch M4 Pro model starts at $2,500 and has a 14-core CPU/20-core GPU.
Storage-wise, the MacBook Pro starts at 512GB, but it can be upgraded to up to 8TB of SSD storage. RAM starts at 16GB and can be upgraded up to 128GB if you choose the M4 Max chip. This is an upgrade from last year when the base model M3 MacBook Pro started at 8GB of RAM. It’s nice to see Apple making 16GB the starting point now instead of 8GB with the new MacBook Pro, and also the new iMac and Mac mini.
The color options for the MacBook Pro are space black and silver, with space gray no longer being available.
The new M4 MacBook Pro models are available for pre-order now and will release on November 8th.
