The MacBook Pro 16 series from Apple in 2023 brings together flagship 16-inch laptops powered by M3 Pro processors. These models are positioned as the company's most high-performance solutions, designed to handle the most demanding tasks including video editing, graphic processing, and other resource-intensive tasks associated with AI. They also perform much better in 3D graphics processing compared to the first and second generation M chips; however, in modern games and applications like Blender, they aren't as strong as the newer M4 processors.
The Apple MacBook Pro 14 2023 M3 is based on two versions of the third-generation M3 Pro processor: simpler versions use 11 computing and 14 graphics cores, while the high-end versions have 12 computing and 18 graphics cores. The RAM can either be 18 or 32 GB, and the maximum built-in SSD storage reaches 2 TB. Other advantages of the MacBook Pro 14 2023 M3 Pro include a 16.2-inch Liquid Retina XDR display with miniLED backlighting, a refresh rate up to 120 Hz, resolution of 3024x1964 pixels, and a peak brightness of 1600 nits when playing HDR content.
Among other hardware features, the laptop boasts an audio system with 6 speakers and Dolby Atmos decoder, the distinctive FaceTime webcam, three USB4 ports with Thunderbolt v4 support, a Touch ID fingerprint scanner, fast charging, and high autonomy (up to 18 hours on a single charge).
Outstanding performance, latest M3 Pro processors, high-resolution Liquid Retina XDR display, and impressive audio capabilities.
