Apple launched a surprise new MacBookPro with the M2 Pro and M2 Max. But should you really buy it?
The 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro are my favorite laptops of the past couple of years. These computers are the real deal, and have no real weakness — outside the high price, of course. But you absolutely get what you pay for.
Related In actual applications, the company says the new MacBook Pros are up to 20% faster at rendering titles and animation in Motion, which is Apple’s own version of After Effects. Meanwhile, compiling in Xcode is 25% faster and image processing in Photoshop in 40% faster. These are all just claims, of course, and no one has been able to confirm them with review samples just yet.
All that is to say, if that’s going to be true for you, you’re better off saving some money and picking up the previous-gen MacBook Pro — whether that’s the M1 Pro or M1 Max. These are still highly capable machines, and as Apple highlights, they still have the incredible display, speakers, keyboard, and trackpad the machine is known for.
