This MacBook Pro's long-lasting battery endured 16 hours and 32 minutes on our Laptop Mag Battery Test which is impressive. We gave the MacBook Pro a rare 5 out of 5-star rating and our Editor's Choice award for its stellar overall and gaming performance.
In one test, the MacBook Pro's M1 8-core CPU juggled everything we threw its way without slowing down. Even with 50 tabs open in Google Chrome — running Tweetdeck, Slack, YouTube, Tidal, Gmail, Google Sheets, and Twitch, the MacBook Pro showed no signs of lag.
Iconic in design, the MacBook Pro retains the same aluminum chassis with Space Gray finish and glossy Apple logo lineage. Weighing in at 3 pounds and 12 x 8.4 x 0.6 inches, the latest MacBook Pro is on par with its competitors. It's only slightly heavier than the Dell XPS 13 (2.8 pounds, 11.6 x 7.8 x 0.6 inches) and 13-inch HP Spectre x360 (2.7 pounds, 12.1 x 7.7 x 0.7 inches). Port-wise, the MacBook Pro M1 supplies you with two Thunderbolt ports with USB 4 support, and a headphone jack which is the standard among today's slim notebooks.
