Apple has just rolled out a refresh for its 14-inch MacBook Pro, bringing the new M5 chip to the entry-level model. The look of the laptop stays the same—you still get the great screen and design. However, the biggest changes are inside, focusing on making the computer much smarter and more efficient.
M5 chip-powered MacBook Pro launched: The biggest AI leap yet on an Apple laptop
The M5 chip is the centerpiece, and its main focus is AI. The new chip architecture means the laptop is now much better at handling demanding artificial intelligence-based tasks. More specifically, it is up to 3.5 times faster than the M4 chip in this department. What does this mean for you? It means faster results when you’re asking AI tools to do things like creating images from text, enhancing videos with AI, or running the latest smart tools in your professional apps. The M5 helps the computer handle all those complex calculations locally, right on your machine, instead of relying heavily on the cloud.
This smarter performance is integrated with the new macOS Tahoe. Thanks to the M5, the system can run powerful new Apple Intelligence features much more smoothly. This will ensure that AI tools are fast, private, and always ready when you need them.
Speed, power, and day-long battery life
Beyond the AI boost, the M5 chip brings substantial improvements to everyday tasks. The graphics performance is up to 1.6 times faster than the M4, which is excellent news for anyone who works with heavy visuals, plays games, or does video editing. Overall processing power for multitasking and professional applications like coding and 3D design is also significantly faster. If you are upgrading from an older M1 machine, the jump in speed and capability will feel genuinely huge.
The hardware supporting the chip is also top-tier. Apple has doubled the speed of the SSD storage compared to the last model, meaning massive files—like raw photos or huge video exports—import and save nearly instantly. The laptop also supports over 150GB/s of memory bandwidth. This will make it easy to handle multiple heavy applications at once.
One of the most impressive practical upgrades is the battery life. Apple now rates it for up to a remarkable 24 hours on a single charge. This effectively turns the 14-inch MacBook Pro into a truly portable workstation that you rarely have to plug in. And when you do need a charge, the fast-charging feature gets you up to 50 percent capacity in about 30 minutes.
Price and availability
The new 14-inch MacBook Pro starts at $1,599. It retains its stunning Liquid Retina XDR display and advanced sound system. You can preorder the new model now, with products expected to ship starting October 22.
