As on the iPad Pro, the MacBook Pro’s main upgrade is the M5 chip. Apple says this delivers “up to 3.5x the AI performance and up to 1.6x faster graphics than the previous generation.” But there’s also an upgrade to battery life (an estimated 24 hours, compared to 22 hours on the 14-inch MacBook Pro with an M4 Pro), and faster SSD performance.

Also like A19 and A19 Pro from the latest iPhone models, the M5 chip delivers increased memory bandwidth. It offers 153GB/s, a 27.5% improvement over the M4’s 120GB/s. While this can give a speed boost to any intense workflow, it particularly benefits generative AI tasks.
