Apple has refreshed its MacBook Pro lineup with the new M4 Pro and M4 Max chips, delivering a substantial performance boost without changing the iconic design. The dimensions of the MacBook Pro 14" and 16" models remain the same with previous M2 and M3 versions, making it compatible with all your existing accessories, including our leather MacBook covers and bags.
The base M4, along with the M4 Pro and M4 Max, brings improved CPU and GPU performance, ensuring faster workflows and handling demanding tasks more smoothly. MacBook Pro with M4 is up to 3.4x faster than the M1, while the M4 Pro is up to 3x faster than the M1 Pro, and the M4 Max is up to 3.5x faster than the M1 Max. Whether it's video editing, software development, or graphics-heavy applications, the new chips are designed to handle it all with ease. Additionally, Apple has enhanced battery life, providing up to 22 hours of usage, making it ideal for power users who need reliability throughout the day.
With this new refresh, Apple also increased the base memory. All MacBook models, from the M2 and M3 MacBook Air (with an expected M4 upgrade early next year) to the latest MacBook Pro, will now come with a minimum of 16GB of memory. This upgrade reflects the growing need for sufficient memory to handle AI processing efficiently via the integrated GPU, ensuring smooth performance across demanding applications. Notably, there is no price increase for entry-level models despite this enhancement. Furthermore, the entry-level MacBook Pro 16 now comes with 24GB of RAM, up from the previous 18GB, providing more power for intensive tasks.
If you've already invested in our MacBook covers and bags, you'll be happy to know that they still fit perfectly with the new models, keeping your device stylish and protected while enjoying the latest advancements from Apple.
