Performance and Battery

Apple claims up to 13-fold faster LLM first-token processing and 11.7-fold faster ray-traced Blender rendering against the 13-inch M1 MacBook Pro. Those are vendor comparisons, not independent benchmarks.

Apple advertises battery life of up to 24 hours. Starting memory is 16GB.

Display and Connections

The Liquid Retina XDR panel has a specified peak HDR brightness of 1,600 nits. A nano-texture display is optional.

Connections include Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6, alongside three Thunderbolt 4 ports, HDMI, MagSafe 3, an SDXC slot and a headphone socket.

Camera, Charging and Price

Video calls use a 12MP Center Stage camera. Audio hardware includes three microphones and six speakers.

Apple says a compatible higher-wattage adapter, such as its 96W model, can charge the battery to as much as 50 percent within 30 minutes. US pricing starts at $1,999.
