Apple unveils new MacBook Pro featuring M3, M3 Pro, and M3 Max chips
Apple has unveiled its next-generation 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro, featuring an all-new set of M3 chips: M3, M3 Pro, and M3 Max, launching in a new space black finish.
Revealed at the iPhone maker’s ‘Scary Fast’ special event on Monday, the new 14‑inch MacBook Pro with M3 now starts at $1,599. The 14-and 16‑inch MacBook Pro with M3 Pro provides greater performance and additional unified memory support over the previous-generation, enabling more demanding workflows for users like coders, creatives, and researchers.
The 14-inch and 16‑inch MacBook Pro with M3 Max brings support for up to 128GB of unified memory, a level of memory that was previously exclusive to the ultra-high end Mac Pro.
Retaining the same overall design as the previous-generation, all MacBook Pro models feature a Liquid Retina XDR display with 20 percent brighter SDR content, a built-in 1080p camera, a six-speaker sound system, and an array of connectivity options.
MacBook Pro models with M3 Pro and M3 Max are available in space black, a new color Apple describes as “unmistakably pro.” The finish features a chemistry that forms an anodization seal to greatly reduce fingerprints. M3 Pro and M3 Max models are also available in silver, and the 14‑inch MacBook Pro with M3 is available in silver and space gray.
Customers can order the new MacBook Pro starting today, Monday, October 30, on apple.com/store and in the Apple Store app in 27 countries and regions, including the U.S. It will begin arriving to customers, and will be in Apple Store locations and Apple Authorized Resellers, starting Tuesday, November 7.
The 14-inch MacBook Pro with M3 starts at $1,599 (U.S.) and $1,499 (U.S.) for education; the 14‑inch MacBook Pro with M3 Pro starts at $1,999 (U.S.) and $1,849 (U.S.) for education; and the 16‑inch MacBook Pro starts at $2,499 (U.S.) and $2,299 (U.S.) for education.
