The M1 Pro chip boasts an impressive 200GBps of memory bandwidth, which is around three times the bandwidth of the M1 chip. Our entry-level model gave the fastest performance score of any notebook we've tested It also includes a 14-core GPU and 16-core Neural Engine, which handles an ever increasing amount of machine learning calculations that underpin many of the fancier features of macOS. The entry-level M1 Pro chip in our test machine has an 8-core CPU with six performance cores and two efficiency cores. Wi-Fi speed was very good as well at 45MBps. Our tests returned a read speed of 5424MBps and write speed of 4256MBps. We rated its processor (CPU) performance as excellent and graphics performance as good, while storage speeds are excellent also. The M2 sits somewhere between the M1 and M1 Pro, and above that you can also get the even more powerful M1 Max chip in the MacBook Pro 14 if you want.Įven in its entry-level configuration, the MacBook Pro 14 is a very fast all-round package. The latest MacBook Air, released this year, includes the more recent M2 chip but this isn't as powerful as the MacBook Pro's M1 Pro chip. It offers 33.7 billion transistors and can be configured with up to 32GB of unified memory.
The M1 Pro is more powerful than the original M1 chip which heralded Apple's move to its own Apple Silicon processors. The M1 Pro SoC (system on a chip) is a big step up from the M1 chip that Apple introduced in the MacBook Air to lead the transition from Intel chips to Apple Silicon chips right across the Mac product range. In fact, the M1 Pro-powered MacBook Pro 14 achieved the highest performance score of any laptop we've tested. How far you want to take it is limited only by your budget.Ĭontact: How does the 14-inch MacBook Pro perform?Īs you'd expect with Apple's next-gen chipset, the MacBook Pro 14 is very fast indeed. But even in its entry-level configuration, the MacBook Pro 14 is a powerful professional computer. You can choose to pack it with more memory and storage, as well as the even more powerful M1 Max chip. The basic 14-inch M1 Pro model has 16GB of RAM and 512GB storage as the starting point. The MacBook Pro 14 lifts the bar in several areas, with a larger, higher-resolution Liquid Retina XDR screen with up to 120Hz refresh rate, super-fast built-in storage, three high-speed Thunderbolt 4 ports, HDMI and SD card port, plus the return of a dedicated MagSafe charging port. We bought and tested the entry-level MacBook Pro 14 with M1 Pro chip and found it to be the fastest notebook we've ever tested. These build on the success of the first M1 processors in the earlier MacBook Air and 13-inch MacBook Pro models.
Apple's compact 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models introduce its new M1 Pro and M1 Max chips.
