Watch Apple’s M4 MacBook Pro announcement video

Apple’s week of episodic hardware releases continues today with a new video announcing the updated MacBook Pros with M4, M4 Pro, and M4 Max chips. Their announcement follows the updated M4 iMac on Monday and the redesigned M4 Mac Mini on Tuesday.

Like the iMac and Mac Mini videos, the new MacBook Pro video is available to watch on Apple’s website by clicking the “watch the announcement” link on the product page or over on the company’s YouTube channel. This video yet again starts with Apple’s SVP of engineering, John Ternus, doing the hardware reveal honors. He says it’s “packed with pro features, Apple Intelligence, and Apple silicon that’s more powerful than ever before.” Then he opens the new notebook and a gust of wind blows his hair back.

McLeod says the new 14-inch M4 is up to 1.8 times faster than the M1 for tasks like editing photos.

Apple has also announced an updated MacBook Air with its minimum RAM bumped to 16GB.
