Today , Apple announced its first in - house system - on - chip for Macs , theM1 , and the Macs that will be based on the newfangled processor : theMacBook Air , Mac Mini , and , of course , a 13 - in MacBook Pro .
Apple used its event to dunk on PC , and the $ 1,300 MacBook Pro is perhaps the superlative of those comparisons : the new MBP is claimed to be up to three metre faster than a comparable Windows laptop . The new Pro is also purportedly more powerful than the former version ( it is not clear if Apple meant the 8th - Gen Intel processor or the tenth - Gen Intel processor)—the unexampled CPU is up to 2.8 time faster , and the GPU is up to five time quicker , with up to 11 times faster machine learning . Apple say the M1 - equipped MacBook Pro delivers up to 17 time of day of web browse and up to 20 hours of video playback , which is twice the battery life of the former MacBook Pro . I personally ca n’t look to quiz out these claims .
The Pro weighs in at 3 British pound sterling , and comes fit out with a “ studio apartment - quality ” three - mic raiment and an improved camera ISP , which , paired with the M1 check , means your picture calls will be significantly upgraded . ( If these improvements have in mind the new MacBook Pro ’s front - facing camera is anything like the new iMac ’s , the difference will definitely be detectable . )

The unexampled MacBook Pro cavort a Touch Bar , Touch ID , and two Thunderbolt port wine with USB 4 living , which means you’re able to connect it to Apple ’s own Pro Display XDR .
macOS Big Sur has been optimized for the M1 chip , which entail the MacBook Pro will come alive instantly upon chess opening , and apps will also launch forthwith ( at least the Apple apps that have been optimized for the M1 to start ) .
All three new Macs with M1 chips are available to grade today and ship next hebdomad .
