You can see below how the MacBook Pro 16-inch model fairs when paired with the most powerful M2 Max chipset. The most powerful M2 Max chip boasts an impressive 12-core CPU, 38-core GPU as well as a 16-core Neural Engine. The M2 Max is more powerful, with the base chip sporting a 12-core CPU, 30-core GPU and a 16-core Neural Engine. The more powerful variation comes with a 12-core CPU, 19-core GPU and a 16-core Neural Engine. The first M2 Pro chip comes with a 10-core CPU, 16-core GPU and a 16-core Neural Engine. Turning to the specs, these laptops come with either the M2 Pro or M2 Max chip, although both have two separate configurations. Opting for the M2 Max chipset, which goes up to a 12-core CPU and 38-core GPU, will also increase the price of each laptop by a large margin. Since these laptops can be configured to have up to 8TB of storage and 96GB RAM the prices can be heavily inflated, but that will depend on which set-up suits you best. The base model of the 16-inch model – the same M2 Pro chip with 16GB RAM and 512GB storage – also costs $2,499/£2699. The base price for the 14-inch model – M2 Pro with 12-core CPU, 19-core GPU, 16GB RAM and 1TB storage – comes out at $1,999/£2149. They can both be customised with either the M2 Pro or M2 Max chipset, with the latter being the most expensive. There are two variations of the latest MacBook Pro, at 14 inches and 16 inches. Both models will ship on the 24th of January, with preorders already available on the Apple website.

The MacBook Pro M2 Pro and M2 Max laptops were announced by Apple on the 17th of January 2023.
