new M1 architecture, MagSafe 3, More ports
Expensive, Expensive RAM / SSD upgrades, M1 Max compromises on battery life
Insanely powerful and returning a wealth of much-loved features, the Apple MacBook Pro 16-inch (2021) is the one the Mac faithful have been awaiting...

Big, A little heavier than you may expect, Very, very expensive
The most minor niggles can't break our enthusiasm for Apple's big new laptop, because it's a big deal. While it's clear the 2021 MacBook Pro 16 isn't going to be for everyone, thanks in part to that hefty price tag, it's a machine that screams “worth it”...
Abstract: There's nothing Pro about the MacBook Pro 13 inch I've been using for the last year. At least that's the way it feels having used the new 2021 MacBook Pro 16 inch with M1 Pro – it's what Pro users have wanted, argued for, and needed for years.The Touchb...

Huge performance on offer,Stunning high-res screen,Massive battery life,Incredibly quiet and cool,
16-inch is large and heavy, Not all apps are M1-native, Still need adapter for USB-A,
The MacBook Pro (2021) 14-inch and 16-inch models offer a screen to die for, class-leading power, and long battery life. The 16-inch is a big beast that's probably overkill for anyone other than genuine creative pros, but the 14-inch is a compact rocket t...

Abstract: Now that Apple has revealed the 16in MacBook Pro with M1 Pro or M1 Max you might be looking at your old maxed out 16in MacBook Pro and wondering if it's time to upgrade. Perhaps even the 14in MacBook Pro would be better? Here is the comparison that will h...

Fantastic power available, Class-leading mini-LED screen, Huge battery life
Heavier than older model
The new MacBook Pro 16-inch (2021) is a technical tour de force, fitting an immense amount of power in a fairly small frame – though it's much larger and notably heavier than the 14-inch, without offering more performance. But it does give you the biggest...

Excellent performance, Stunning mini-LED display, Extremely long battery life, Plenty of ports
Large, Heavy, Expensive
The MacBook Pro 16-inch (2021) is one of the best laptops creative professionals can buy, thanks to its brilliant performance, stunning screen and long battery life. However, it is large and heavy, which is why the 14-inch MacBook Pro may be a better buy...
