Apple has announced the 16in Macbook Pro after months of rumours. With its eight-core processor, potential for 64GB of memory and 8GB of VRAM, and AMD Radeon Pro 5000M series graphics, this model is the segment's most powerful iteration to date.
After rumours have been propagating the idea of such a product launch for months, Apple finally revealed on Nov 13 the 16in MacBook Pro, a model that the company refers to as "The most powerful MacBook ever".
To earn this title, the variant with the most advanced configuration has:
> A 16in Retina display
> An eight-core processor
> Up to 64GB of memory
> Radeon Pro 5000M graphics
> A Magic keyboard
> A six-speaker sound system
> Studio-quality mics
> A 100Wh battery
This display is the largest Retina laptop display ever produced by the company; it has a 3072x1920 resolution and delivers nearly six million pixels.
The eight-core ninth generation processor with 5.0GHz Turbo Boost Speeds and 64GB of memory work together to "deliver blazing fast performance". In fact, the performance speed is over two times faster than the quad-core 15in MacBook Pro.
Compared with the same model, this MacBook Pro – thanks to the improved graphics – give video editors, gamers and developers faster performance across a variety of software.
The company dropped the problematic butterfly keys used in their most recently launched notebooks in favour of a system that utilises a scissor mechanism.
Also for the first time, this MacBook Pro can be configured with 8TB of storage – no external hard drive necessary.
The simplest configuration of the laptop will put owners back US$2,400 whereas the more advanced variant complete with 64GB of memory, 8TB of storage, and Final Cut Pro X pre-installed among other features has a price tag of US$6,600 . All variations are available to order as of today.
