Why you should buy the Apple MacBook Pro with M4 Pro

The latest MacBook Pro tops our look at the best MacBooks for so many fantastic reasons. It’s a true powerhouse of a machine while still looking super elegant and stylish. In our MacBook Pro review, we described it as “the best gets even better.” It offers “record-breaking performance,” with the M4 Pro chip proving to be exceptionally powerful for all kinds of tasks. It also has a best-in-class keyboard and trackpad, which adds to the experience.

Apple is one of the best laptop brands around for anyone happy to use macOS, with it often featuring highly in our look at the best laptops. This model has the M4 Pro with 14-core CPU and 20-core GPU, but it also has 24GB of RAM and 512GB of SSD storage, which is all great to see. A little more storage space would be good, but you can always tag on one of the best external hard drives if you need more.

Its 16-inch Liquid Retina XDR display may not be an OLED one, but it looks beautiful, with 1,600 nits peak brightness, up to 1,000 nits of sustained brightness, and 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio. All that power could have caused havoc for the battery life, but that’s not the case here: all-day battery life of up to 24 hours. It even has a 12MP Center Stage webcam, which is a rarity, ably backed up by three studio-quality mics and six speakers with Spatial Audio and Dolby Atmos support.

The laptop to beat right now, the Apple MacBook Pro with M4 Pro usually sells for $2,499. Amazon is currently selling it for $2,249, so you save $250 off the usual price. Take a look for yourself through the button below.

While Valve’s Steam Machine launched at a higher-than-expected price due to the AI-driven chip shortage, it seems that the company is not sitting on its haunches and is still working hard to make the product more enticing to users. 

One of the coolest features of the Steam Machine is the user-customizable front faceplate, and Valve has just made it better. The company open-sourced its "Inkterface" project, which allows users to build their own e-ink faceplate for the Steam Machine.

Containers have been a highly requested feature, especially for users who regularly switch between work, personal, developer, or creator accounts. Once enabled, they let users open tabs in separate spaces where cookies and site storage are not shared outside that container.

DDR5 memory prices have climbed sharply, making newer platforms harder to justify for anyone trying to build an affordable gaming PC.
