Other perks include Dolby Atmos sound, improved webcam video quality (thanks to the M1's new signal-processing chip), the sharp 2560x1600-pixel Retina display and iOS and iPadOS app support.

And on the Handbrake video transcoding test, it converted a 4K movie to 1080p in 7 minutes and 44 seconds, beating the already speedy MacBook Air's 9:15. On top of that, the MacBook Pro's 434.8-nit display is brighter than the Air's 365.8-nit panel. For example, it lasted a whopping 16 hours and 32 minutes on the Tom's Guide battery test, beating the M1 Air (14:41) by nearly 2 whole hours.

The MacBook Pro with M1 takes everything we like about the M1-based MacBook Air, and then kicks it up a notch or two.

Read our full MacBook Pro (16-inch) review. On top of that, you've got a 1080p webcam, a trio of improved microphones and a stellar six-point speaker system. Oh, and don't think MagSafe will take USB-C charging out of the picture: the MacBook Pro's trio of Thunderbolt 4/USB4 ports also draw power. That's not just the safety-focused MagSafe 3 charging port, but HDMI-out for connecting to displays and an SD memory reader for connecting memory cards for real-deal cameras. On top of that, you get the return of the ports that pros demand. Once you get over the notch, you'll be wowed by its contrast and smoothness, especially with its 120Hz refresh rate.

An upgrade over the previous intel-based model, this model features thinner bezels to give more space to the gorgeous mini-LED Liquid Retina XDR displays. Want it all? Then you may be looking for the beastly 16-inch MacBook Pro, which sports either M1 Pro or M1 Max chips, that deliver shocking amounts of performance. Display still isn't 4K -Expensive with M1 Max Read our full MacBook Pro 2021 (14-inch) review. The MacBook Pro 2021 definitely feels like a Pro-level laptop again. Apple's also bumped up the internal webcam to 1080p, from 720p. Other notable changes include the death of the Touch Bar (which never proved its worth), which has been swapped out for physical F1-F12 keys. That said, there's still no USB-A, which is something we're starting to realize Apple has no plans of bringing back. This means you won't need to bring a USB-C dongle to connect to a display or use external memory. On top of that, Apple's brought MagSafe charging, HDMI-out and a SD memory reader back to the MacBook Pro. Oh, and the new M1 Pro (and pricier M1 Max) chips deliver even more speed than ever before, while still enabling all-day battery life. Your favorite movies, and everything else, will simply look better. That's simply because its new Liquid Retina XDR display with a 120Hz refresh rate is gorgeous. The new 14-inch MacBook Pro is the Mac to get if you have 1) the budget and 2) the need for more ports.

No USB-A port -$1,299 model goes without update Read our full MacBook Air with M1 review. It's so good it won recommendations for best laptop and longest-lasting laptop in our Tom's Guide Awards 2021. The MacBook Air is now not just the best MacBook for your average Apple user, but it's closer to the title of the king of the laptops than it's been in years. Dolby Atmos audio support means that some movies and TV shows will sound even better than before. And, of course, the Magic Keyboard is still here, which provides a comfy typing experience. The MacBook Air's webcam has also been upgraded, as the M1 chip provides signal processing tricks to improve clarity and color accuracy.

Plus, the M1 delivers crazy-fast performance, so much so that it can run serious games smoothly. This laptop's 14 hours and 41 minutes of battery life n the Tom's Guide battery test is the best for a MacBook Air ever. Apple's decision to replace its Intel processors with its own Apple Silicon, starting with the M1 chip in the MacBook Air, is reaping serious rewards. The MacBook Air was always the best MacBook for most people, but now it's better for even more people than ever before.
