Apple MacBook Pro

Apple MacBook Pro is built for people who need more — more power, more memory, more capability. Whether you're editing 4K video, training AI models, writing code or running demanding creative apps, MacBook Pro handles it all without breaking a sweat. JB Hi-Fi stocks the full MacBook Pro range with the latest chips and the team to help you choose the right one.

The latest MacBook Pro models are powered by the all-new M5 Pro and M5 Max chips — the most advanced chips Apple has ever built for a pro laptop. Available in 14-inch and 16-inch sizes, here's what makes them stand out:

• M5 Pro and M5 Max chips with the world's fastest CPU core and a next-generation GPU with a Neural Accelerator in each core
• Up to 4x faster AI performance than the previous generation and up to 8x faster than M1 Pro and M1 Max
• Thunderbolt 5 for up to 120Gbps data throughput and support for high-speed peripherals and multiple external displays
• Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6 via Apple's N1 wireless chip for fast, reliable wireless connectivity
• Liquid Retina XDR display with 1,600 nits peak brightness, 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio and optional nano-texture glass
• Storage starting at 1TB for M5 Pro and 2TB for M5 Max with up to 2x faster SSD performance than the previous generation
• Up to 24 hours of battery life — the longest ever in a Mac
• Available in Space Black and Silver in 14-inch and 16-inch sizes

JB Hi-Fi also stocks MacBook Pro models with M4, M4 Pro and M4 Max chips for those after strong performance at a lower price point.

Both chips are built on the same M5 architecture but scale up differently for more demanding workloads.

• M5 Pro — starts with an 18-core CPU and up to a 30-core GPU with 96GB of unified memory and 306GB/s memory bandwidth. The pick for developers, video editors and creative professionals who need pro-level performance without going all the way to Max.
• M5 Max — starts with an 18-core CPU and up to a 40-core GPU with up to 128GB of unified memory and 614GB/s memory bandwidth. Built for the most intensive workloads — high-end 3D rendering, large AI model training, multi-stream 8K video editing and audio production at scale.

Both are available in 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models. The 16-inch M5 Max is the most powerful Mac laptop Apple makes.

It comes down to what you do and how hard you push your machine.

For professionals and creatives

The 14-inch MacBook Pro M5 Pro is the sweet spot — portable, powerful and capable of handling demanding creative and development workflows with ease. If you need the portability of the 14-inch but maximum processing power, step up to the 14-inch M5 Max.

For the most demanding workloads

The 16-inch MacBook Pro M5 Max is built for users pushing the limits — think large-scale AI development, multi-stream 8K video, complex 3D work and audio production at a professional level. With up to 128GB of unified memory and 614GB/s memory bandwidth, nothing in the MacBook lineup comes close.
