While the M2 series saw modest gains, the M3 family is a different beast entirely – scary fast indeed
Well, here’s a surprise – just 10 months after Apple updated the MacBook Pro with M2 silicon, here comes its successor. Unveiled at the company’s Scary Fast event in October, the new version marks the arrivals of the latest chips in the Apple silicon family – the M3, M3 Pro, and M3 Max – and a new colour: Space Black, which joins the existing Silver and Space Grey.
Apple’s justification for the upgrade is that it says it always wants to bring its most powerful silicon to its customers, and while the M2 series saw modest gains over the M1, the M3 family is a different beast entirely – Scary Fast indeed.
For anyone wanting to upgrade from an older model, the MacBook Pro (2023) offers plenty of choice. The 14-inch is available in three configurations: the entry-level (£1,699) comes with an 8-core CPU, 10-core GPU M3 with 8GB of unified memory and 512GB of storage; the mid-range (£1,899) gets identical specs but offers 1TB of storage; and the top-tier (£2,099) gets an M3 Pro with an 11-core CPU/14-core GPU, but drops the storage to 512GB.
