The utilitarian aesthetic is made all the more badass with a Space Black finish, which is complemented by a typing and clicking experience that continues to be one of the best in the industry.īut who is this for exactly? The vast majority of what this machine is capable of can be done by the cheaper 14-inch Pro with M3, but only slightly slower. Battery life continues to be great, even though M3 Pro absolutely slaps in power and graphical performance. Up to 8K resolution support on external monitorsĪnd that’s the tale of the M3 Pro MacBook Pro: a laptop that feels a bit lost in the mix.įor all intents and purposes, this is a great machine that continues to defy the logic set by even the best Windows laptops.Whether you’re thrashing the latest Sleep Token album like the angsty metalhead you are (guilty), or enjoying the finer details of a song like 2009 by Mac Miller (also guilty), the definition and presence will floor you. The six-speaker setup with force-canceling woofers is capable of filling a room with its high volume, while producing an impressive level of bass that compliments the mids and highs with no distortion whatsoever. Pro tip: if you want to get this level of brightness across your whole screen, download Vivid.Īs for the speakers, nothing has changed over previous generations of MacBook Pro, and they continue to produce the best sound I’ve ever heard out of a laptop. When moving over to HDR, these numbers will increase all the way up to 1,588 nits - that’s “eyes melting in Indiana Jones” levels of backlighting! The difference is stark when a HDR video plays in a YouTube window, as you see it shine so brightly compared to the relatively dull UI of the website. Of course, these numbers tell the SDR side of the story. After a while, you will see those telltale marks of use again, but that’s par for the course with Apple systems.ĭimensions haven’t changed one iota from last year.ĭelta-E color accuracy (smaller number is better) Put simply, I love the new finish, but that much-touted anti-fingerprint seal isn’t as “anti-fingerprint” as you may expect. Well, Apple says black - it’s more of a darker Space Grey, but the end result looks like the kinda MacBook Pro you’d see Bruce Wayne edit a RAW photo of Batman on (you know, for the ‘gram…or whatever it’s called in Gotham City). The squared-off chassis provides a confidence in its durability and exudes luxury with its all-metal construction, which is highlighted even further with this new Space Black colorway. This premium construction of 100% recycled aluminum and class (adding to a total of 32% recycled content in the device) looks just as mean, lean and ready to rip through your tasks with ruthless efficiency as before. In the case of the TouchBar Macs, that was a bad thing, but for the 14-inch Pro shell, it most certainly isn’t. We all know Apple’s song and dance by now - with each redesign comes several years of sticking rigidly to it.
