Apple’s new MacBook Pro 2021 (14-inch) is a significant notebook. That’s not just because of what it has, but also because of what it takes away. The new M1 Pro processor is the star of the show, a big step forward from the M1 chips that improved speed and battery life last year.
Then there are the Liquid Retina XDR screens, which have better contrast and refresh rates. Apple has also reintroduced MagSafe charging, which is a safer way to recharge the MacBook Pro.
What are the things we’re glad to see go? The MacBook Pro’s display bezels have been drastically reduced, and the Touch Bar has been removed. If Apple had unveiled this laptop to the public rather than on a live video, both of these modifications would have been applauded lines.
Furthermore, we have an HDMI connector and an SD memory reader, both of which have been missing from the MacBook Pro since 2015. As a result, our MacBook Pro 2021 (14-inch) review will demonstrate why this laptop is not only one of the finest, but also a genuine return to form for the MacBook Pro. We’ll also go through how two of the best PC laptops battle on price and win, while another pair excels at gaming.
MacBook Pro 2021 (14-inch) review: Price and release date
- Pricey out the gate at $1,999
- The 13-inch MacBook Pro didn’t get updated
The 14-inch MacBook Pro 2021 starts at $1,999, which is a lot of money. That’s $200 more than the $1,799 MacBook Pro it replaces, but considering how much it adds, it’s not a big deal.
It is, however, $700 more expensive than the 13-inch MacBook Pro with M1, which was not updated this year. The M1 Pro system-on-chip comes with an 8-core CPU (6 performance cores, 2 efficiency cores), a 14-core GPU, 512GB of storage, and 16GB of RAM for your two Gs.
The 14-inch MacBook Pro will be available in the week of October 25, 2021, alongside the 16-inch MacBook Pro (2021). However, as demand soars, delays are already building up.
We wish the lower-end 13-inch MacBook Pro had been refreshed at the same time as these new versions. That MacBook Pro is extremely similar to the MacBook Air, yet the new 14-inch MacBook Pro costs $1,000 more than the MacBook Air.
The M1 Pro processor in the upgraded 13-inch MacBook Pro could not be as powerful. Apple may perhaps have made a different compromise. In any case, the MacBook Air with M1 has USB-C only ports, larger bezels, and other characteristics to MacBook Air. making that 13-inch model look like less of a MacBook Pro and more like a thicker MacBook Air.

MacBook Pro 2021 (14-inch) review: Design
- Thinner bezels arrive with a notch in tow
- Lighter than Razer Blade 14 and heavier than XPS 13 OLED
The 14-inch MacBook Pro 2021 isn’t just a new size for Apple’s high-end laptops, it’s also a part of a new era. For years, the MacBook Pro got very small, and pretty boring updates. This year? Nearly everything’s different, as Apple’s thrown out the tapered lid for a flat top, and even engraved “MacBook Pro” on the bottom.
The 14-inch MacBook Pro 2021 represents not just a new size for Apple’s high-end computers, but also a new era. For years, the MacBook Pro received only minor and uninteresting improvements. Is it this year? Almost everything has changed, with Apple ditching the curved lid in favour of a flat top and even engraving “MacBook Pro” on the bottom.
More crucially, Apple has reduced the size of the MacBook Pro’s bezels (for the most part). They’ve shrunk from 0.5-inch (top) and 0.3-inch (side) bezels in the previous three years to a little over 0.1-inch. Because Dell’s computers have had InfinityEdge display panels for years, the Dell XPS 13 with OLED has similarly small bezels, and for longer.
However, there is one special case: Apple gave the MacBook Pro a score. Indeed, the little dark rectangular space for cameras in the iPhone came to the top focus of the MacBook Pro presentation. It’s 0.4 inches tall, and it’s difficult to miss, from the beginning that is. I’ve as of now become accustomed to it, and I’m more than tolerating of it. The more slender bezels permit Apple to move the Menu Bar to the opened up space, and the score just drops down far enough to be in that menu bar.
Shockingly, the MacBook Pro score is now turning into an issue for a few. Tech fan Quinn Nelson clarified that he’s as of now hit issues with the iStat Menus utility when the Menu Bar choices on the left and the symbols on the right hit a limit. Seems like Apple needs to address this with an update, and engineers ought to be exhorted with how to forestall this.
The just other “new” change is that the left and right vents, for hotness and sound, are bigger than previously. It’s something I bet I’ll become acclimated to.
Take a gander at the 14-inch MacBook Pro one next to the other with the 13-inch 2020 MacBook Pro, and let me know you’d take the last mentioned, with its more modest screen and thicker bezels. Without a doubt, no indent would be better, however, it’s a good trade-off.
Estimating 12.3 x 8.7 x 0.6 inches and weighing 3.5 pounds, the 14.2-inch MacBook Pro is somewhat bigger and heavier than the 13-inch MacBook Pro with M1 (12 x 8.4 x 0.6 inches, 3 pounds). Curiously, however, the 14-inch MacBook Pro is more slender, on the off chance that you drill down to centimetres, where it’s 1.55cm thick versus the 1.56cm 13-inch MacBook Pro. Yet, whose eyes will see that?
The 13.4-inch Dell XPS 13 with OLED (11.6 x 7.8 x 0.5 inches, 2.8 pounds) is more modest and lighter, while the 14-inch Razer Blade 14 (12.6 x 8.7 x 0.7 inches, 3.9 pounds) is bigger and heavier. Obviously, the new MacBook Pro 2021 (16-inch) (14 x 9.8 x 0.7 inches, 4.7 pounds) is bigger and heavier.
You may likewise be thinking about the bigger and heavier 14.4-inch Microsoft Surface Laptop Studio (12.7 x 8.9 x 0.7 inches, 3.8 – 4.0 pounds) and the Dell XPS 15 OLED 2021 (13.6 x 9.1 x 0.7 inches, 4.2 pounds), which have somewhat more force.
We’ll pardon the Surface Laptop Studio’s bigger plan, nonetheless, as it has an easel-like touchscreen show that you can pull towards you. The sort of component we’d love to see Apple play with, however, they’d need to acknowledge touchscreen PCs into their souls first.
Apple sells the MacBook Pro 2021 in the same two colours they’ve sold MacBook Pros in for years: silver and Space Gray. I’m picking the latter when I buy mine, though I’ll only see that colour on the bottom half of the machine, as I’m covering the lid in stickers I’ve collected while waiting for the last five years.
MacBook Pro 2021 (14-inch) review: Ports
- The return of the MagSafe charging port, HDMI and SD memory reader
- Still no USB-A port
This is more like it. The 14-inch MacBook Pro 2021 trades Apple’s previous philosophy — essentially “USB-C dongles are good enough” — for most of the ports that people need. One, though, is still in absentia.
On the left half of the MacBook Pro, you discover apparently the most welcome port to get back to the MacBook Pro: the MagSafe charging port. Macintosh (and its fans) went through years lauding the PC saving ideals of this attractively connecting power jack, which essentially jumps out at whatever point a more-than-minor measure of strain is applied. Beforehand, you could just charge the MacBook Pro by means of a USB-C link, and those puppers could pull your PC clear off your table — and where/how they’d land, who can say for sure?
The MacBook Pro 2021 (14-inch’s) MagSafe 3 and Thunderbolt 4 ports close by its and earphone jack
Close by that, you have two Thunderbolt 4/USB4 reversible USB-C ports, and an earphone jack that has been moved up to help high‑impedance earphones that request more force.
On the right side, you have a third Thunderbolt 4 port and two additional ports that geniuses fundamentally requested re-visitation of the Mac: HDMI-out and a SD card peruser. These are pivotal for any individual who broadens their presentation or plugs in a camera memory card (separately). I’ve since a long time ago utilized a USB-C center point dongle for this on my work-gave MacBook Pro, and I’ve since quite a while ago wished I didn’t need to.
The MacBook Pro 2021 (14-inch’s) SD memory peruser, third Thunderbolt 4 port and HDMI-out
The SD peruser upholds the UHS-II arrangement, which is essentially “Alright.” It’s quicker than UHS-I and more slow than the best in class UHS-III. However to get that distinction you wanted to purchase SD cards that help UHS-II or UHS-III.
The MacBook Pro 2021 (14-inch’s) connected MagSafe 3 port
The 16-inch MacBook Pro has similar ports, while the 13-inch MacBook Pro has two Thunderbolt/USB 4 ports and an earphone jack, making it a great representation of the info/yield circumstance that geniuses were frantic to abandon.
Both the Razer Blade 14 and XPS 13 approach the new MacBook Pro port collection. Both have double USB-C ports and an earphone jack, while the XPS 13 has a microSD peruser and the Razer Blade 14 has a USB-A port and HDMI. Dell tosses in a USB-C to USB-A connector, which Apple ought to do.
The XPS 15 has three USB-C ports and a microSD peruser (it likewise tosses in a USB-A connector), while the Surface Laptop Studio has double Thunderbolt 4/USB-C ports, an earphone jack and a Surface Connect port.
A USB-A port would be a welcome expansion, particularly as the vast majority have no less than one gadget that requires USB-A. I have numerous: my Blue Yeti receiver, in addition to my remote mouse and console. Utilizing these embellishments in a hurry shouldn’t need conveying a connector with you.
MacBook Pro 2021 (14-inch) audit: Display
Bounty splendid, with an astonishing difference for HDR content
Everything simply looks such a ton more splendid and better on the smaller than normal LED Liquid Retina XDR show in the 14-inch MacBook Pro 2021. Watching my 4K HDR duplicates of Scott Pilgrim versus the World, Mission: Impossible – Fallout and Jordan Peele’s Us, I over and again felt like I was seeing things better than I had in some time. I noted dazzling differentiation between the reds, blacks and whites in the last battle of Scott Pilgrim, just as in lighting and shadows of the washroom fight in Mission: Impossible – Fallout and wonderful ocean side tones in Us.
The other large element in the MacBook Pro 2021 is its ProMotion 120Hz invigorate rate, which makes everything look smoother. This was seen not just in Tom Cruise and Henry Cavill’s clench hand battle in Fallout, yet in addition when text basically looked better as I looked in the Apple News application and Chrome.
The 14-inch MacBook Pro’s showcase produces 109.6% of the sRGB range (as indicated by our colorimeter), which is inside the room for mistakes of the score from the 16-inch MacBook Pro (109.3%). The Surface Laptop Studio (105.6%) hit a comparative rate, the 13-inch MacBook Pro (111.8%) got a hair higher, as did the Razer Blade 14 (111.3%). The 3.5K OLED board in the Dell XPS 13 (117.3%) hit a somewhat more noteworthy number, while the 3.5K OLED XPS 15 board (120.1%) is a step over that.
The new MacBook Pros are really brilliant, with the 14-inch model transmitting up to 487.8 nits as per our light weapon (the 16-inch rendition arrived at somewhat higher, to 500.6 nits). The Surface Laptop Studio (487.2 nits) is also brilliant, while the 389-nit XPS 15, 439.4-nit MacBook Pro 2020, the 357.5-nit XPS 13 and the 332.4-nit Razer Blade 14 are dimmer.
Macintosh rates the new MacBooks as hitting top brightnesses of up to 1,600 nits, however the most elevated we could get it, when utilizing stunts to attempt and amp up the brilliance, was 520 nits. All things considered, this screen is stunning.
MacBook Pro (14-inch, 2021) survey: Performan
“How much quicker could the M1 Pro get, truly?” I contemplated internally. Then, at that point, we did the testing, and the 14-inch MacBook Pro (M1 Pro w/10-center CPU, 32GB RAM) brushed the rooftop off the damn tests, similar to the Avengers illuminating Thanos from all points. I’ve not heard the fans increase as I’ve opened many tabs in Chrome (additionally while parting the screen with the 1080p trailer for Spider-Man: No Way Home).
On the Geekbench 5 general execution benchmark’s multi-center test, the 14-inch MacBook Pro acquired an astounding 12,477. The M1 Max-based 16-inch MacBook Pro (a 10-center CPU setup, with 64GB of RAM) improved, at 12,683. Those scores for all intents and purposes walk straight up to the 7,571 score from the M1 MacBook Pro 2020 (Apple M1, 8GB RAM) and shake it down for its lunch cash.

Also, the scores of 7,471 from the Razer Blade 14 (AMD Ryzen 9 5900HX, 16GB RAM), 7,477 from the XPS 15 (Intel Core i7-11800H, 16GB RAM), 5,820 from the Surface Laptop Studio (Intel Core i7-11370H, 32GB RAM) and 5,420 from the Dell XPS 13 with OLED (Intel Core i7-1185G7, 16GB RAM) presently live under the tall shadow of the M1 Pro and M1 Max scores.
Honestly, these new Macs have a decisive advantage over a portion of these, with more RAM.

The M1 Pro-based MacBook Pro 2021 also super-charged scores on our Handbrake video encoding test, requiring just 4 minutes and 51 seconds to transcode a 4K video to 1080p (the 16-inch MacBook Pro with M1 Max required 3 seconds less time, at 4:48). We drew nearer seasons of 7:46 from the 13-inch 2020 MacBook Pro, 7:20 from the Razer Blade 14 and 8:10 from the Dell XPS 15, while we saw a lot of more regrettable occasions of 11:24 from the Surface Laptop Studio and 18:12 from the XPS 13.
Apple keeps on discovering wins on capacity, with its SSD bursting fantastic read (5,322 MBps) and compose (5,377 MBps) times on the Blackmagic Disk Speed Test. The 16-inch MacBook Pro (read: 5,315 MBps, compose: 5,565 MBps) wasn’t a lot quicker.
These occasions (once more) beat the 2020 MacBook Pro with M1 (read: 2,768 MBps, compose: 2,406 MBps) and the 1,051 MBps move rate from the Surface Laptop Studio, while the exchange rates from the SSDs in the Razer Blade 14 (909 MBps), XPS 15 (826 MBps), XPS 13 (742 MBps) are trapped in triple digits.
And afterward there’s the question of the PugetBench Photoshop test, where the M1 Pro turned in a score of 806 and a period of 4:54 (the 16-inch MacBook Pro edged it out at 877 and 4:44). Those occasions and scores (you got it) beat those of the 2020 MacBook Pro (577, 7:03) conveniently.
Searching for considerably more examinations between the new MacBook Pros and the top PC workstations? We’ve incorporated the MacBook Pro 2021 benchmarks, and set them in opposition to any semblance of the Asus ProArt StudioBook 16 and HP ZBook Fury G8, as well — for Geekbench 5.4, our Handbrake video transcoding test, PugetBench Photoshop, Sid Meier’s Civilization VI and surprisingly on battery life. The new MacBooks remove 2 from 3 rounds, would you be able to figure which?
MacBook Pro (14-inch, 2021) audit: Graphics and gaming
The 14-inch MacBook Pro we tried provisions a 16-center GPU enlarging Apple’s new M1 Pro framework on-chip. Furthermore, it’s ending up a monster, as I saw when I played Rise of the Tomb Raider, as the stormy opening scene moved along as expected while snow and wind tormented Lara on a precipice.
Testing this out with a benchmark, the 14-inch MacBook Pro hit 39fps on Rise of the Tomb Raider (at 1920 x 1200), while the 16-inch model took off to a super-smooth 73.87 fps. At the point when we expanded the goal, the 14-inch (at 3024 x 1964) hit a rough 17 fps while the 16-inch (at 3456 x 2234) still neglected to get over 30 fps, at 27 fps.
The MacBook Pro 2021 (14-inch) with Rise of the Tomb Raider playing
The 14-inch MacBook Pro ran Sid Meier’s Civilization VI: Gathering Storm (at 1512×982) at 46 edges each second, a smoother rate than the 22 fps rate the XPS 13 (with Intel Iris Xe Graphics) had, however that ran at 1080p. The 16-inch MacBook Pro ran it (set to 1728 x 1080) at 46 fps. For setting, 30 edges each second is playable, however we generally love to see a better grade. The Nvidia RTX 3050 Ti GPUs in the Surface Laptop Studio (66 fps) and Dell XPS 15 (67 fps) empowered perfection that beat everyone down here.
The M1 Pro lacks against the M1 Max displayed in the 3DMark Wild Life Extreme Unlimited test. There the M1 Pro’s 16-center GPU procured a score of 10,386 at 62.17 edges each second, while the 16-inch MacBook Pro (32-center GPU M1 Max) acquired a 20,220 score at 121 edges each second.
MacBook Pro 2021 (14-inch) review: Battery life
- 14-inch MacBook Pro lasts over 14 hours on our test
- 6+ Hours longer than OLED XPS 13
The Apple Silicon time has been generally extraordinary for the MacBook Pro, conveying significantly longer perseverance than in years past. That proceeds here.
The 14-inch MacBook Pro conveyed the entire day execution, enduring 14 hours and 9 minutes on the Tom’s Guide web perusing based battery test (set to 150 nits). For the good of examinations, the Intel-based MacBook Pros — the 13-inch (10:21), 15-inch (likewise 10:21) and 16-inch (10:55) — all came in at more limited occasion
The main MacBook Pro with M1 (16:25) and the M1 Max 16-inch MacBook Pro (15:32) both kept going longer, while the Intel-based Dell XPS 13 with OLED (7:59), Dell XPS 15 with OLED (6:58) and AMD-based Razer Blade 14 (6:02) fared a lot of more terrible. The Surface Laptop Studio (10:42) improved, yet at the same time didn’t approach.
MacBook Pro (14-inch, 2021) audit: Webcam
- Further developed lucidity in 1080p webcam
- Most contenders actually have 720p webcams
The MacBook Pro 2021 (14-inch) open to the writer found in a QuickTime video recording
Lamentably, online video conferencing is another typical, and Apple’s perceived that here. The 14-inch MacBook Pro (and its 16-inch kin) have 1080 webcams, a jump up from the grainy 720p cams in the Dell XPS 13 and XPS 15, 2020 MacBook Pro and Razer Blade 14 (credit to Microsoft for placing a 1080p webcam in the Surface Laptop Studio).
You’ll see video I shot on the two cameras in my survey video above, and here’s a correlation between selfies shot on the new 14-inch MacBook Pro’s webcam and the 720p camera in the Intel-based 2020 MacBook Pro.

I don’t have to let you know which will be which. The left selfie is such a great deal more brilliant and more clear, with a greater amount of my hair apparent first off (on the right, a ton of detail is lost in dark segments). My skin is additionally much more clear on the left, similar to my unmistakable glasses.
It’s incredible that Apple chose to roll out this improvement, as we actually live in a world loaded up with remote-work encounters, where approaches Google Meet, Zoom, Skype and Teams have supplanted gatherings.
MacBook Pro (14-inch, 2021) survey: Keyboard and touchpad
Amazing and open to composing experience
The Touch Bar is gone, and we’re prepared to arrange a party
The Magic Keyboard in the 14-inch MacBook Pro 2021 is agreeable and empowers quick composing. Its keys give a nice measure of actual input, and testing it out on the 10fastfingers composing test, I click-clattered my direction to 77 words each moment (with a 96% exactness rate), close to my 80 wpm outer console normal. I additionally noticed that its 5.1 x 3.1-inch glass Force Touch trackpad is precise and gives smooth looking over.
However, there’s something else to the new MacBook Pro’s console besides the composing experience. Apple’s rolled out other huge improvements that make them shout “out with the new and in with the old!” Yes, in 2021, we’re celebrating physical keys on a console. Not just has Apple stayed with the Magic Keyboard system plan it presented in 2019 and 2020 (which supplanted the famously questionable and legal claim rousing Butterfly console), yet they likewise tossed out another somewhat later ‘advancement.’
The MacBook Pro 2021 (14-inch’s) Magic Keyboard
The Touch Bar, a meager OLED touchscreen (the main kind Apple’s placed in a PC), was presented in 2016. It had ‘programming buttons’ that would show up couple with explicit applications. Getting a call? You could begin or hang up with the Touch Bar. Need to send an emoticon? The Touch Bar had you covered.

However, the Touch Bar never genuinely defended its reality, and Apple supplanted it in these new MacBook Pros. In its place, we have a line of full-tallness Function keys (F1-F12, the splendor, sight and sound and other alternate way keys), a getaway key and a force button that provisions Touch ID biometric security for affirming your character to open the framework, open a secret key supervisor or use ApplePay.

This change is very gladly received if you were to ask me, as I frequently discovered my fingers incidentally inciting the Touch Bar by only brushing its surface.
- MacBook Pro 2021 (14-inch) survey: Audio
- Six-speaker arrangement dazzles
- Further developed sound quality in receivers
Macintosh’s sound designers keep on accomplishing magnificent work, presently pressing a solid and melodic six-speaker exhibit into the 14-inch MacBook Pro 2021. At the point when I turned on Frank Ocean’s irritable single “Swim Good,” I was unable to prevent myself from weaving along to the pounding bass.

The threesome of inherent mouthpieces have been improved for higher sound quality, something I saw with my own eyes when recording recordings in Quicktime.
MacBook Pro 2021 (14-inch) survey: Heat
Gets somewhat warm
Be that as it may, doesn’t get excessively hot
As I’ve tried the new MacBook Pro, I’ve seen it get somewhat warm all things considered, nothing to try and comment about. After we streamed 15 minutes of Full HD video on it, our hotness weapon got temperatures under 95 degrees Fahrenheit on its touchpad (85 degrees), console and underside (both 89.5 degrees).

MacBook Pro 2021 (14-inch) audit: Software and iOS applications
macOS 12 is steady, however, reported components have been deferred
Live Text is the coolest programming highlight Apple’s made in years
macOS Monterey, also known as macOS 12, is the most recent adaptation of Apple’s work area working framework, and as somebody who’s been trying it on an M1 MacBook Air and a 2020 Intel MacBook Pro since the betas came out, I can say I’m genuinely fascinated with it. Apple’s needed to defer two marquee highlights — SharePlay and Universal Control — past the full last dispatch of Monterey, yet at the same, it’s still acceptable.
Most importantly, I’ve regularly needed to advise myself that this is, truth be told, a beta. That is the way steady this delivery is (however your situation will be unique, contingent upon your most loved applications). Without those two significant elements, Apple’s in fact got fewer main motivations to cause you to download it. In any case, all things considered, LiveText — which allows you to choose and duplicate text in pictures — is really astounding, and something that I genuinely accept would make individuals need to download it ASAP. As you can see with this set-list I got from a new show, Live Text makes it simple for me to trade that text on that sheet, saving me the hour of composing it out myself.

MacBook Pro 2021 (14-inch) audit: Verdict
I’ve been hanging tight for this MacBook Pro 2021 (14-inch) survey for seemingly forever. I last purchased a Mac in 2012, when the main Retina Display MacBook Pro showed up. And afterwards I didn’t require a MacBook until around 2016 and 2017, right when Apple changed to a dubious console that felt excessively shallow, removed MagSafe and those important ports.
Along these lines, I made my 2012 MacBook Pro stretch. Be that as it may, it’s scarcely had the option to hold a very remarkable battery charge, the exhibition has eased back altogether, and Apple’s new OS refreshes haven’t upheld it. I began to think about what working framework my next PC would run, in any event, considering Windows machines. However at that point the Butterfly console switch went wiped out, information on the returning ports spilled and gossipy tidbits about the Touch Bar’s destruction spread. What’s more, I got exceptionally energized, even more so as Apple got it done. Apparently, Apple paid attention to long stretches of ace client objections, since this is the PC that we’ve been requesting.
The MacBook Pro 2021 (14-inch) shut, zeroed in on the top
What’s more, the 14-inch MacBook Pro 2021 components astonishing execution from the super-quick M1 Pro (or the quicker M1 Max on the off chance that you pay more), an exquisite Liquid Retina XDR show that is both brilliant and rapid, and the more slender bezels it’s for quite some time required.
You could have comparably thin bezels with the Dell XPS 13 with OLED, and they’d set you back much less. A XPS 13 with comparable specs as the MacBook Pro we tried is more than $800 less (at $2,069), however, its battery life is far more limited, it isn’t as quick and its presentation isn’t as brilliant. Need the execution of the incredible design for gaming? The Surface Laptop Studio is correspondingly evaluated, however, you’ll lose battery life and general execution when contrasted with the 14-inch MacBook Pro, while the XPS 15 we tried is about $400 less, yet somewhat heavier and has substantially less perseverance on a solitary charge.
The MacBook Pro 2021 (14-inch’s) scratched/debossed marking on the underside
You could remain in the Mac world, and save $700 and get longer battery existence with the 13-inch MacBook Pro, yet you likely will not have any desire to in the event that you at any point see the more slender bezels of the 2021 MacBook Pros.
We’d love to see a MacBook Pro with these ports at a more reasonable cost, yet that is not in the cards at this moment. Possibly in 2022, Apple will refresh that spot in its setup. The MacBook Air 2022, for instance, is relied upon to get MagSafe. All that said, the new 14-inch MacBook Pro is essentially precisely the PC that many have sat tight for, and surprisingly longed for. With an indent on top.
