Apple MacBook Pro 16-inch M3 Max Review

 

The Apple MacBook Pro 16-inch M3 Max is a wonderfully powerful laptop that'll seriously improve various workflows for the right buyer.

Exceptional performance ; Stunning display and keyboard

The price builds up very quickly ; No Face ID

The Apple MacBook Pro 16-inch M3 Max may not be a big improvement on its predecessor but its a machine that’ll comfortable improve many demanding workflows for the right user. The screen is absolutely stunning and the keyboard is top-drawer, while the...

MacBook Pro 16-inch (M2 Pro, 2023) review: a mind-blowing beast of a laptop

 

Apple's M2 Pro (and M2 Max) silicon sees the 2023 16-inch MacBook Pro absolutely fly. Is this the new untouchable laptop for creatives?

M2 Pro is incredibly powerful (M2 Max more so) ; Yet it still runs quietly and cool throughout ; Mini LED display is simply stunning looking ; HDMI 2.1 (for 4K/240Hz external support) ; Battery life is stupidly good ; Great built-in speakers

Big and heavy in 16-inch configuration ; Barely different to 2021 model ; Oh my, it can get expensive! ; Notched display ; No USB-A port

Although I don't see the 2023 MacBook pro as an instant upgrade for users of the 2021 models – unless you're super keen for HDMI 2.1 and 4K 240Hz monitor support anyway – I do see it as an absolute triumph of a laptop for creatives. The addition of M2...

Apple MacBook Pro 16-inch (2023): a productivity beast that's not for everyone

 

Big and beautiful

New M2 Pro and M2 Max chips ; Over 20 hours battery life ; Still the best screen on a laptop

Expensive ; Bulky

The MacBook Pro 16-inch (2023) is another triumph from Apple. The company is clearly comfortable with making its own chips, and while the 2023 model isn’t the gaming-changing revelation that the 2021 model was, it remains an incredibly powerful...

Apple MacBook Pro review (16in 2023): the ultimate do-anything machine

 

It ups the ante on 2021's redesigned model - but do the MacBook Pro 16in's M2 Pro and M2 Max represent a leap forward?

Outstanding performance and impressive battery life ; Gorgeous display ; Great connectiviy

More power than many will need ; Undeniably pricey once you start ticking options boxes

The best MacBook model for performance chasers. It’ll be overkill for anyone after a more mainstream machine, but all the laptop creative types could ask for.

Apple MacBook Pro 16-inch (M3 Pro, late 2023)

Apple 16-inch MacBook Pro (M3 Max) review: A portable tower of power

 

It's very powerful and very expensive, but is it worth it? #apple #m3max #macbookpro #applesilicon

Superlative performance ; Long battery life ; Gorgeous display ; Excellent build quality ; USB-C Thunderbolt 4 ports ; Great keyboard, trackpad, and speakers

Space Black isn't really black ; Expensive ; Upgrade options are pricey ; 16-inch model is quite heavy ; Display still has blooming issues

The TL;DR version: The M3 Max possesses remarkable performance, but unless you are running apps that can full advantage of it, there’s little sense in upgrading, especially if you already have an Apple Silicon Mac. Those holding on to Intel-based Macs,...

Apple 16-inch MacBook Pro (Late 2023) Review: M3 Max Domination

 

The MacBook Pro gains a new color and an impressively powerful new M3 Max chip.

M3 Max chip delivers mighty performance ; Long battery life ; Class-leading build quality ; Stunning Mini-LED display

Memory and SSD upgrades remain pricey

If you can stomach the pricey upgrades, the 16-inch MacBook Pro remains a top choice for creative pros, thanks to its impressive performance, top-notch build quality, and punchy Mini-LED display.

Apple MacBook Pro M3 Max review: delivering the goods

 

The MacBook Pro is Apple's most important laptop, and with the upgrade to the M3 Max, it's even more powerful.

Space Black is the new king GPU performance gets big upgrade XDR display is even brighter Speakers are fantastic Decent webcam

Storage and RAM is soldered on M3 model only supports one external display

“The MacBook Pro's upgrade to the M3 Max ensures that it remains the best in class.”
