Top-tier Apple laptops rarely see a big price cut these days, so a $600 discount on one of the most powerful machines definitely caught our eye. The 14-inch MacBook Pro with the M5 Max chip is marked down to $3,499 right now, a huge savings from its usual $4,099. For professionals who need a lot of muscle, this is a rare opportunity to save real money.
This thing is an absolute beast of a computer. The M5 Max chip alone is extremely powerful thanks to its 18-core CPU and 32-core GPU. Add 36GB of memory and a maxed out 2TB SSD, and there’s no better combination you can spend money on. Whether you’re editing videos, rendering 3D scenes, or juggling a dozen apps at once, the MacBook Pro will meet your needs.
Battery life is not something you will complain about when it comes to this laptop. If you could stream video 24 hours a day, you’d get a full day of use on a single charge. The screen is also impressive. The 14.2-inch Liquid Retina XDR display can reach 1,600 nits of maximum brightness, so you can use it outdoors if you wish. In addition, the colors are particularly vivid and the blacks appear deep. And of course, we love the design, especially the Deep Black color.
The connectivity is also amazing. You get three speedy Thunderbolt 5 ports, a MagSafe 3 charging port, plus Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6 for fast wireless connection. It also supports up to four external displays with the M5 Max, so you can create a full multi-screen setup.
At $3,499, the MacBook Pro M5 Max is an easy pick if you want one of the fastest and most capable laptops Apple makes.
