All-new Space Black finish, all-new M3 power, all-new price: the 2023 MacBook Pro is out-of-this-world impressive

It feels like only a heartbeat ago we were reviewing the last MacBook Pro - the 16-inch M2 Pro model, 10 months ago, back in March 2023 - and quickly realising it was not only among the best MacBooks money could buy, but ultimately one of the best laptops on the planet.

That a new MacBook Pro has arrived so soon after seems somewhat peculiar, but we're not complaining: the all-new M3 silicon (as revealed in the 'Scary Fast' event) is here to reign supreme and, in the 14-inch MacBook Pro M3 Max model we had for review, it's truly outstanding.

Not only that, dressed in the also all-new Space Black finish (which we're mildly obsessed with - all Apple products should offer Space Black), and with a lower entry-level price, can the late 2023 MacBook Pro M3 series do no wrong? We've been using it for a full week and there's no doubt in our minds it delivers an almost out-of-this-world experience.

In today's economic climate, all products' prices seem to rise by big percentages generation to generation. So what's this? The M3 MacBook Pro is cheaper than the M2 equivalent? That's right and by quite a margin. The 14-inch M2 models were priced from £2,149, but the M3 at its entry-level configuration is priced from £1,699.
