The MacBook Pro is a line of high-end Mac laptop computers designed and manufactured by Apple. Since its introduction in 2006, it has been positioned above the MacBook Air in Apple's laptop lineup. It's available with 14-inch and 16-inch screens. Recent models feature Apple's M-series chips, such as the M5, M4 Pro, and M4 Max. These chips provide substantial performance and efficiency improvements.
Key features of the MacBook Pro include a Liquid Retina XDR display, MagSafe charging, a range of ports including Thunderbolt 5 (on higher-end models), and a Magic Keyboard. The Liquid Retina XDR display is a mini-LED display with high brightness and contrast ratio. The current models offer up to 128GB of unified memory, HDMI 2.1, Wi-Fi 6E, and Bluetooth 5.3. As of February 2026, the base 14-inch MacBook Pro with the M5 chip starts at $1,449. Prices increase for models with larger screens, more powerful chips, and greater storage capacity. The higher-end 16-inch MacBook Pro starts at $2,499. As of early February 2026, the MacBook Pro is widely available; however, the higher-end 14-inch and 16-inch models with M5 Pro and M5 Max chips are expected to be released around early March 2026.
