Apple 14-inch MacBook Pro M4 (late 2024)

  (Rating Hidden)

The 14-inch Apple MacBook Pro (late 2024) has been preceded by some excellent MacBooks. So does this 2024 version live up to the high standard – and is it worth the high price? We've put it through our extensive lab test to see if it's worth buying....

14-inch MacBook Pro (M4 Max) review: Familiar, but better than ever

 

The MacBook Pro gets a new processor and some other notable upgrades. Does that mean you should go out and buy one? #apple #macbookpro #m4max

Superlative performance ; Incredible battery life ; Support for Thunderbolt 5 ; Fantastic display ; Slightly cheaper ; Great keyboard, trackpad, speakers

Display has blooming issues ; No Wi-Fi 7 support ; Upgrade options are pricey ; Still expensive

The TL;DR version: These are some of the best laptops money can buy. It has a fantastic screen, blazing-fast performance, and just about all the features you could want. Pricey, yes, but it’s well worth it. Note: You can find the new MacBook Pro on...

MacBook Pro (14-inch, M4) review: Nano-texture niceness

 

M4 is powerful and efficient, but wow, that screen.

Nano-texture display is stunning ; One more Thunderbolt 4 port than prior model ; Long battery life ; Strong performance ; Starts with 16GB of RAM (Finally) ; Great speakers

Apple Intelligence features are limited right now ; RAM and SSD upgrade pricing is absurd ; Display notch should have Face ID by now

The 14-inch MacBook Pro with M4 is a luxurious device. M4 is a powerful chip, and you finally start at 16GB of memory. If you can afford it, opt for the nano-texture display, which is stunning. But RAM and SSD pricing is jaw-droppingly high, and Apple...

MacBook Pro (M4 Pro) review: the best gets even better | Digital Trends

 

With a new chip and a handful of quality of life improvements, the M4 MacBook Pro has reached new heights.

Even brighter display ; Fantastic 12MP webcam ; Record-breaking performance ; Best-in-class keyboard and trackpad ; All the ports you want, now faster ; Speakers so good you'll ditch your headphones

Still no OLED ; The 16-inch model is quite heavy

“With the M4, the MacBook Pro has never been better.”

Apple MacBook Pro 14 (M4 Pro, 2024) review – A Pro’s Machine

 

The Apple MacBook Pro 14 is a pricey well-built machine with powerful hardware. The M4 CPU maintains a rock-solid P and E core clock of 3.92 GHz / 2.59 GHz no matter the load. This, combined with the color-accurate mini-LED Liquid Retina XDR display...

The 12-core CPU sustains 3.92 GHz / 2.59 GHz for the P and E cores during any kind of load ; Great sustained performance for such a compact form factor ; The fans are quiet in light loads ; Mini-LED display with 120Hz refresh rate and 605 nits of max...

Pricey ; Soldered memory and NVMe ; High processor temperatures under medium and long stress ; Loud fans in long 100% CPU stress scenarios ; No Wi-Fi 7

The MacBook Pro M4 is fantastic - unless you need graphic power

 

It's sturdy, reliable, crazy efficient, but the graphic performance could be stronger.

Great design ; Easy to set up and use ; Fantastic for static visual creative pursuits

Graphic performance underwhelms ; Mucho expensive

The Apple MacBook Pro (M4, 2024) won't surprise anyone who's been near one of its predecessors. It's incredibly well built, the screen is predictably great and it's loaded with a bunch of ease-of-use features for anyone, plus the addition of Apple...
