Apple has introduced the new 14-inch MacBook Pro, built around its latest M5 processor. The company from Cupertino presents it with the familiar precision of its craft – a machine defined by its Liquid Retina XDR display, the new macOS Tahoe, and a keyboard softly illuminated for work in silence.
Detailed Look at Apple MacBook Pro 14: Specs and Performance
The notebook carries a 14.2-inch Liquid Retina XDR panel, offering a resolution of 3024 by 1964 pixels and a refresh rate of 120Hz. Its brightness reaches 1,600 nits at its highest and maintains 1,000 nits across the screen. At its core lies the M5 chip, built with four performance cores, six efficiency cores, and a 10-core GPU, aided by a 16-core Neural Engine. Memory options include 16GB or 24GB, while storage can be configured at 512GB or 1TB.
The new M5 chipset within the MacBook Pro carries a Neural Accelerator in each core – a design that, according to Apple, yields up to three and a half times faster AI performance than the M4, and nearly six times that of the original M1. The company presents the machine as a tool for modern, intelligence-driven work, claiming that the chip can even host large language models directly on the device.
The MacBook Pro is fitted with a 12-megapixel Center Stage camera for clearer video calls and a six-speaker array that supports Spatial Audio. It runs on macOS Tahoe, complete with Apple Intelligence and the new Liquid Glass aesthetic that defines its latest software. Battery endurance, Apple says, reaches 24 hours – a modest but notable rise from the 22-hour figure of the M4 model.
Apple MacBook Pro 14 Price in India and Availability Details
The 14-inch MacBook Pro begins at ₹1,69,900 for the 16GB RAM and 512GB storage configuration, ₹1,89,900 for 16GB RAM with 1TB of storage, and ₹2,09,900 for the 24GB RAM and 1TB option. It comes in Space Black and Silver, the two shades that now serve as Apple’s symbols of restraint and luxury. The notebook is open for pre-order and will be available from October 22 through Apple’s website, its four Indian stores, and all authorized resellers.
Final Words
The MacBook Pro 14-inch with the M5 processor is not just another update to the model, but it is a statement that the company is not going to allow the ghost of Intel to haunt its halls. It has turbocharged AI performance that can be frankly absurd and a battery life that can actually allow you to complete a Netflix binge, making this machine the laptop that the thinking person would buy.
The initial cost of INR 1, 69,900 is not going to make your wallet jump with happiness, but the logic behind this choice by Apple is valid: it is a device that is designed to be used by the professionals, who do not take their tools lightly.
The Neural Engine on steroids, along with the intelligence capabilities of MacOS Tahoe, will bring a future where your MacBook is not merely processing data, but it knows what you need before you do, like a super-smart assistant. The M5 MacBook Pro is a powerful upgrade whether you are a content creator, developer or just a person who does not want to use anything without an illuminated Apple logo.
