Apple launched its 16-inch M3 MacBook Pro in late 2023, alongside the smaller 14-inch model. This new MacBook Pro lineup is powered by M3 Pro and M3 Max chipsets, both of which offer significant performance enhancements compared to the M1 and M2 MacBook Pros.

The 16-inch M3 MacBook Pro is available in Space Black or Silver. It is equipped with an SDXC card slot, HDMI port, headphone jack, MagSafe 3 port, and three Thunderbolt 4 (USB-C) ports for charging, data transfer, and display connectivity. The M3 Pro can support two external displays while the M3 Max can handle up to four. The HDMI port can output up to an 8K resolution.

The storage options for the 16-inch MacBook Pro can be configured from 512GB up to as much as 8TB. Depending on the model, RAM can range from 18GB for the basic version, to up to 128GB for the high-end M3 Max with a 16-core GPU. This makes it a highly suitable laptop option for intensive tasks and professional workflows.

The M3 MacBook Pro has a battery life of up to 15 hours when browsing the web and up to 22 hours during Apple TV app movie playback. The laptop also features a large Liquid Retina XDR display with up to 120Hz refresh rate. The base model of the M3 Pro starts at $2,499 USD (although exclusive discounts are available in this guide) and is an ideal option for users who want a larger screen and advanced capabilities.
