The 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pro models offer the M2 Pro and M2 Max chips for a high level of performance, with mini-LED displays, MagSafe fast charging, a range of ports, and more.

Announced in January 2023, the MacBook Pro is brand new. The previous MacBook Pro models with chips from the M1 family were released in October 2021, but before that, Apple updated the MacBook Pro roughly annually.

Priced starting at $3,199 for the 14-inch model, the MacBook Pro offers a range of high-end features. If you don't need such a high level of performance, a wide range of ports, or features like the mini-LED display, there is the 13-inch M2 MacBook Pro for 1,999

Apple in January 2023 overhauled the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models, adding next-generation M2 Pro and M2 Max chips, increased maximum memory, longer battery life, HDMI 2.1 with 8K display support, faster Wi-Fi 6E, and Bluetooth 5.3 support.

The 2023 MacBook Pro models have received no design changes and continue to come in 14.2-inch and 16.2-inch size options with mini-LED displays. Changes are all internal, focused primarily around the updated M-series chips.

Apple's new M2 Pro chip offers up to a 12-core CPU and up to a 19-core GPU, while the M2 Max chip offers a 12-core CPU and up to a 38-core GPU. The CPU in both chips includes eight performance cores and four efficiency cores, although the scaled-down M2 Pro in the base model of the 14-inch MacBook Pro comes with six performance cores and four efficiency cores.

The M2 Pro supports up to 32GB unified memory, while the M2 Max supports up to 96GB unified memory, an improvement over the prior 64GB maximum with the M1 Max. The M2 Pro features 200GB/s unified memory bandwidth, while the M2 Max features 400GB/s unified memory bandwidth.
