MacBook Pro
The MacBook Pro lineup is more variable than ever with three distinct product choices all using powerful M-series processors. Customers can choose between the M1, M1 Pro, and M1 Max based on their individual needs and price range.
13-inch MacBook Pro
The 13-inch MacBook Pro with an M1 processor is the last MacBook you can buy with a Touch Bar. It has two Thunderbolt/USB 4 ports and retains the design of the Intel model it replaced. While this has the same processor as the MacBook Air, it also has a cooling fan which enables higher peak performance.
