While the Apple MacBook Pro M4 launched under a week ago, you can already get a $125 discount on it. Should you get one?

The biggest reason to upgrade to the MacBook Pro M4 is the performance. This machine gets the newest M4 chip that is based on a 3-nanometer process, promising the fastest CPU core and better multithreaded performance than M3. Based on our testing, the M4 blows a lot of the competition away but not on every test.

Apple's latest MacBook Pro is a powerhouse of a laptop for professionals and prosumers. But if you're just looking for something to browse the web and stream Netflix, stick with the MacBook Air.

The M4 Pro and M4 Max deliver exceptional performance and potential to the new MacBook Pro laptops. Then there's the M4

Bloomberg 's Mark Gurman is well known for keeping on top of Apple rumors across the tech spectrum, and the MacBook Air is no different. In a September newsletter, Gurman cites sources close to Apple that have pinned the MacBook Air M4 launch date as coming in Q1 2025.

The 16-inch MacBook Pro, like the previous model, features a 16.2-inch, 3,456 x 2,234-pixel resolution display with ProMotion technology (i.e., up to 120Hz refresh rate). As expected, the display looked gorgeous while I feasted my eyes on the new Squid Game 2 trailer. It's rich, vibrant, and pure visual eye candy.
