The Apple MacBook Pro 14-inch (2021) was one of the most anticipated products of 2021 and now that it has been officially announced at Apple’s Unleashed event, guesswork is no longer needed.
After the launch of the MacBook Pro 13-inch (2020), there was still demand for a more powerful, compact professional laptop, and this demand is not surprising as the 13-inch model uses the same M1 SoC as the current-generation MacBook Air and 24-inch iMac. Fortunately, the newly announced slightly larger pro device features two powerful new processors, the M1 Pro and M1 Max.
The MacBook Pro 14-inch (2021) has been popping up in various leaks and rumors for several months. The wait is now over, and it looks like this new MacBook Pro might be one of the best laptops out there in a while, compared to older Intel-powered versions, or even overall.
The new MacBook Pro 14-inch features a straight-edge design, MagSafe charging, mini LED display, a built-in SD card reader and HDMI port, all of which make it the perfect companion for creative professionals like graphic designers and photographers.
And you don’t have to worry about running your favorite apps. Reportedly, the M1 Max powered MacBook Pro 14-inch is 3.7 times faster in CPU performance (undisclosed generation) than the Intel i7 and 13 times faster in graphics performance.
While we can’t be sure of the actual usage performance of the MacBook Pro 14-inch (2021), it’s certainly one of the most exciting Apple products we’ve come across this year.
The 8-Core CPU, 14-Core GPU M1 Pro model with 16GB memory and 512GB SSD storage will sell for $1,999. The more powerful model will have a 10-core CPU, 16GB of memory and 1TB of SSD storage; You’ll have to pay a hefty $2,499 for the 16-Core GPU M1 Pro.
There is no set pricing for the M1 Max of the MacBook Pro 14-inch, but you can customize the notebook on the Apple website.
With a 10-core CPU and 32-core GPU M1 Max processor, 64GB of RAM and 8TB of SSD storage at maximum specs, this 14-inch beast will be waiting for you for $5,899.
The MacBook Pro 14-inch (2021) is now available for pre-order and will arrive on Tuesday, October 26.
