Apple 14.2″ MacBook Pro with M1 Max Chip (Late 2021, Space Gray)

Apple MacBook Pro 14″ M1 Max 10-Core Late 202… Overview

From pro workflows to everyday tasks, the MacBook Pro delivers power efficiency while still maintaining performance. The MacBook Pro can deliver up to 17 hours of video playback.

Physical function keys are back with the Magic Keyboard on the MacBook Pro. Replacing the Touch Bar, the familiar, tactile function keys have made their return. There is even a wider ESC key.

Now with a Full HD 1080p FaceTime HD camera, the MacBook Pro uses the ISP and Neural Engine in M1 Pro and M1 Max for computational video that enhances video quality.

The MacBook Pro features a high-fidelity six-speaker sound system, which has two tweeters for a clearer soundstage as well as four force-cancelling woofers, resulting in 80 percent more bass. The sound system also supports spatial audio, providing a three-dimensional audio experience, whether you’re listening to music or watching a movie in Dolby Atmos. Apple also has studio microphones that have a lower noise floor, resulting in clear calls as well as voice recordings.

The narrow-band LED-powered backlight allows the MacBook Pro to represent the P3 wide color gamut for brilliant, true-to-life color in photos and videos.

With ProMotion technology, the MacBook Pro automatically varies the refresh rate to match the motion of your onscreen content. This helps preserve battery life while also making tasks feel more fluid and responsive. This means that the display can have up to a 120 Hz refresh rate. Video editors will also have the option to lock in a refresh rate that is optimal for their footage.

MagSafe 3 makes connecting a power cable quick and easy while also protecting your MacBook Pro. Apple also brings fast charging to the MacBook Pro, allowing you to charge up to 50 percent in just 30 minutes.

Thunderbolt 4 combines ultra-high bandwidth with the versatility of the USB Type-C industry standard to create one revved-up universal port. It integrates data transfer, charging, and video output in a single connector, delivering up to 40 Gb/s of throughput for twice the bandwidth of Thunderbolt 2. The MacBook Pro is equipped with three ports, so you can do all of that from either side. Existing devices are easily connected with a cable or adapter. And Thunderbolt 4 is reversible, so no matter how you plug in, it’s always right side up.

The MacBook Pro can be configured with up to 8TB of SSD storage so you can take your photo or video libraries with you no matter where you’re headed. And with superfast speeds, massive files load in an instant and pro apps launch in a blink. This particular model comes with a 2TB SSD.

Featuring mini-LED technology, this MacBook Pro houses a 14.2″ Liquid Retina XDR display. Delivering up to 1,000 nits of sustained, full-screen brightness, a high 1,600 nits of peak brightness, a 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio, and a billion colors, the Liquid Retina XDR display can handle the extreme dynamic range of HDR content, providing detailed shadows, brilliant specular highlights, deeper blacks, and vivid colors. The display is less than 4 mm thin, which is achieved by having seven films and diffusers that mix and shape the light efficiently. The oxide thin film transistor (TFT) allows pixels to charge twice as fast as before.

Packed with 57 billion transistors, the Apple M1 Max integrates the CPU, GPU, Neural Engine, I/O, and more into a single system on a chip (SoC). Built with 5nm process technology, the Apple M1 Pro delivers the performance you need without sacrificing power efficiency. The 10-Core CPU features eight performance cores and two high-efficiency cores. The 16-Core Neural Engine provides support for on-device machine learning acceleration and improved camera performance. The M1 Pro offers up to 400 GB/s of memory bandwidth as well as support for up to 64GB of unified memory. The efficient architecture of M1 Pro means they deliver the same level of performance whether MacBook Pro is plugged in or using the battery. With up to a 32-Core GPU, the M1 Max can provide up to four times faster GPU performance than the M1. M1 Max also offers an enhanced media engine that features two ProRes accelerators for even higher multi-stream performance. As a result, professionals can edit up to 30 streams of 4K ProRes video or up to seven streams of 8K ProRes video in Final Cut Pro. Video editors can even grade color in HDR on 8K ProRes 4444 video while on battery.

The system features the Apple M1 Max 10-Core Chip, which provides the power and performance needed to handle your professional workflows. The 14.2″ Liquid Retina XDR display features a 3024 x 1964 resolution, 1,000 nits of sustained brightness, 1,600 nits of peak brightness, P3 color gamut support, and more. With up to 2TB of SSD storage, you’ll be able to load massive files and launch apps quickly, enabling you to work with photo and video libraries from almost anywhere.

Built for all types of creatives, including developers, photographers, filmmakers, 3D artists, music producers, and more, the Apple 14.2″ MacBook Pro with M1 Max Chip is the ultimate pro mobile workstation for the ultimate user.

I run some memory intensive dev workloads and was running up against heavy memory pressure on my MacBook M1 Pro w/ 16GB of RAM. Upgraded to this 64GB monstrosity and it is AMAZING. My dev workloads are now buttery smooth with nary a hiccup or slowdown.

I just recently replaced my old Macbook Pro 13 with this beauty.. I haven’t had it long enough but so far I’m loving it. I especially like the touch button to use instead of a password. Too many passwords to remember already. Hopefully, this will last me as long as my old Macbook.

I couldn’t be happier with the purchase. I probably got more storage space and RAM memory than needed for what I do, but having had space issues with my 2012 MacBook and wanting a MacBook that would be effective for another 10 years without the drag issues I have experienced over the past 36 months, I figured the investment was worth it. I took advantage of the $400 Black Friday savings and of the tax waiver that comes with the B&H Payboo credit card. Total cost including shipping: $3099.00

My beloved iMac from 2014 wasn’t cutting it anymore so I decided to take things mobile and get a MapBook Pro 14. Since I tend to hold on to computers for a while I decided to get the most RAM and fastest Proc available. Well this thing goes. I mean I don’t wait for anything to load and I can play multiple 4k video streams simultaneously without issue. I absolutely love this thing and the TouchID is an awesome improvement which saves me time every day!

Extremely powerful and quick computer
