The new M2 chip makes the 13‑inch MacBook Pro more capable than ever. The same compact design supports up to 20 hours of battery life² and an active cooling system to sustain enhanced performance. Featuring a brilliant Retina display, a FaceTime HD camera, and studio‑quality mics, it’s our most portable pro laptop.
The M2 chip begins the next generation of Apple silicon, with even more of the speed and power efficiency introduced by M1. So you can rip through workflows with a more powerful 8-core CPU. Create stunning graphics with a lightning‑fast 10‑core GPU. Work with more streams of 4K and 8K ProRes video with the high-performance media engine. And do it all at once with up to 24GB of faster unified memory.
Active cooling sustains blazing‑fast performance. Thanks to its advanced thermal system and the efficiency of Apple silicon, MacBook Pro can sustain pro levels of performance, so you can run CPU‑ and GPU‑intensive tasks for hours on end.
M2 has 100GB per second of memory bandwidth — 50 percent more than M1. And it supports 24GB of unified memory for superfluid multitasking and working with massive files.
macOS and M2 work together to bring more speed and responsiveness to all your go‑to apps — including Microsoft 365 and your favorite iOS apps. Over 10,000 apps and plug‑ins are already optimized for Apple silicon. And Rosetta 2 seamlessly translates apps designed for Intel processors for use on your MacBook Pro.
The high-performance media engine on M2 supports ProRes encode and decode. So you can play and edit up to 11 streams of 4K ProRes video and up to 2 streams of 8K ProRes video — including 4K ProRes video shot on iPhone 13 Pro.³ And convert projects to ProRes up to 3x faster than before.⁴
The M2 chip and macOS give MacBook Pro security and privacy features beyond anything in its class. With built‑in protections against malware and viruses, the freedom to choose what you share and how you share it, and silicon‑level features like Touch ID and Apple Pay, it’s built to safeguard your privacy and data at every stage.
With the brilliant Retina display, images take on an incredible level of detail and realism. Text is sharp and clear. Bright LED backlighting delivers deep blacks and bright whites. P3 wide color brings even more vibrant greens and reds than sRGB. And MacBook Pro features True Tone technology, so the white balance automatically adjusts to match the color temperature of the light around you — for a more natural viewing experience.
Thanks to M2, the FaceTime HD camera takes full advantage of our latest image signal processor — so you’ll look great in video calls. And whether you’re running a meeting, hosting a podcast, or connecting with friends and family, the studio-quality mics will make sure everyone hears you loud and clear.
Magic Keyboard delivers a comfortable, quiet, and responsive typing experience. The Touch Bar puts the commands you need most right where you need them, saving time and keystrokes. And Touch ID provides fast, easy authentication for secure logins and purchases.
Ultra‑high bandwidth meets ultra‑versatility. Thunderbolt enables data transfer, charging, and video output all through a single port — and MacBook Pro has two of them. Wi‑Fi 6 keeps MacBook Pro going strong as more and more devices join the network. And the headphone jack even supports high‑impedance headphones.
