The 16-inch MacBook Pro is powered by the Apple M5 Pro or M5 Max chip. The chip has a next-generation CPU, faster unified memory and up to 2x faster SSD storage. Its more powerful GPU has a Neural Accelerator built into each core for faster AI performance and on-device training. It is designed to run on-device AI workloads such as LLM inference and training, and it supports Apple Intelligence.
The 16.2-inch Liquid Retina XDR display has 1600 nits peak brightness, up to 1000 nits sustained brightness and a 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio. Performance is the same on battery as when plugged in.
It runs macOS, which includes built-in virus protection and free software updates. It works with other Apple devices through features such as iPhone Mirroring, copy and paste between iPhone and Mac, Messages and FaceTime calls.
