Apple MacBook Pro 16 (M4 Pro / M4 Max) review – Powerhouse Performance for Prosumers

Thanks to its more punchy hardware, the MacBook Pro 16″ (M4 Pro / M4 Max) offers more performance than the base version of the 14-inch sibling. In real life, you can spot this if you are using the machine for 3D rendering, video conversion,...
