"Of course, that last task was the least stressful, as Apple made the reason to upgrade to the hot, new MacBook Pro this year as straightforward as ever. If your current system isn't holding up, you can buy the trustee MacBook Pro, with its polished aluminum design, smooth-as-ever ProMotion display, and an updated M5 chipset, all for the same price as last year's model -- and the year before."
"For starters, beyond the M5 chipset, the new 14-inch MacBook Pro features the same core of internal hardware as the M4 model, from the cooling fans to the placement of memory and battery. However, subtle capacity changes make a noticeable difference to performance, from faster unified memory bandwidth (153 GB/s from 120 GB/s) to faster SSD speeds to up to twice the storage cap (4TB from 2TB). Each of the 10 GPU cores also receives Neural Accelerators for faster AI/ML processing."
The 14-inch M5 MacBook Pro keeps the same external design and internal layout as the M4, including cooling fans and placement of memory and battery. The M5 introduces faster unified memory bandwidth (153 GB/s versus 120 GB/s), faster SSD speeds, and doubles the maximum storage option to 4TB. Each of the 10 GPU cores gains Neural Accelerators for improved AI/ML processing. The top-tier M5 configuration may be excessive for many users, while the base configuration provides sufficient performance for typical workflows. Benchmarks compare the M5 to previous Mac models, including an M1 Max 14-inch MacBook Pro.
