All models, each 14-in. and 16-in. configurations, feature a Liquid Retina XDR screen with a nano-texture display option and as much as 1,000 nits of brightness (1,600 nits of peak brightness). Equipped with a six-speaker sound system, they provide a 12-megapixel Center Stage camera, Thunderbolt 5 on M4 Pro and M4 Max models, an 8K HDMI port, MagSafe 3, headphone jack, SDXC card slot, Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3. Available in space black and silver, all could be pre-ordered today; shipments begin Nov. 8.

“Apple silicon has taken the Mac to unprecedented heights, and the rapid pace of innovation continues with M4 Pro and M4 Max,” Johny Srouji, Apple’s senior vice chairman of hardware technologies, said in a press release. “With the world’s fastest CPU core, immensely more powerful GPUs, and the fastest Neural Engine ever, the power-efficient performance and capabilities of the M4 family extend its lead as probably the most advanced lineup of chips within the industry.”
