Unmatched performance and power with the M4, M4 Pro, and M4 Max chips

Built with second-generation 3-nanometer technology, the M4 chips are the most advanced ever designed for a personal computer. With the world’s fastest CPU core, the M4 family offers us performance beyond our expectations, especially in complex tasks that require extensive processing.

The base model of the 14-inch MacBook Pro includes the M4 chip, which offers us up to 1.8 times faster performance compared to the 13-inch MacBook Pro with the M1 chip. This model comes with 16 GB of memory, three Thunderbolt 4 ports, and support for two high-resolution external displays.

If we need even more power, the MacBook Pro models with M4 Pro and M4 Max go much further. The M4 Pro features a 14-core CPU and a GPU with up to 20 cores, doubling the memory bandwidth compared to the previous generation. This allows for acceleration in tasks such as structural modeling, scientific simulations, and 3D video editing.

For its part, the M4 Max represents the pinnacle of this new family of chips, with a 16-core CPU and a GPU of up to 40 cores. Ideal for data professionals, 3D artists, and composers, it allows working with complex AI models and handles heavy tasks in visual effects, animation, and music production with great ease. It offers us up to 128 GB of unified memory, which is simply an unprecedented capacity for developers working with large-scale language models.

Enhanced Liquid Retina XDR Display and New Camera with Center Stage

One of the most interesting features of these new models is the Liquid Retina XDR nanotextured display option, which significantly reduces reflections. With a maximum brightness of up to 1000 nits in SDR content and 1600 nits in HDR, this display is ideal for outdoor work.

For its part, the new 12 MP camera with Center Stage automatically adjusts the framing to keep us always centered during video calls, adding a new dimension to virtual meetings.

Thunderbolt 5 and Ready for Apple Intelligence

The models with M4 Pro and M4 Max include Thunderbolt 5 ports, which double data transfer speeds and facilitate the connection of high-speed peripherals.

At the software level, Apple Intelligence excels in these computers. Whether we need to review, summarize, and improve texts, or talk to the new Siri, the power and capabilities of these computers stand out.

Price and availability

The new 14-inch MacBook Pro with the M4 chip starts at $1599. Meanwhile, the 14-inch model with the M4 Pro has a base price of $1999, while the 16-inch model starts at $2499. All models are available in the sleek finishes of space black and silver.
