PROLED 16-inch MacBook Pro vs 16-inch MacBook Pro: Compared

Apple's latest update to the MacBook Pro brings a new OLED display, touch-enabled capabilities, and a slimmer design. The PROLED XDR Display version of the 16-inch MacBook Pro is Apple's first model to feature a touch screen without requiring any external hardware. With an OLED screen that is both touch-enabled and brighter, this generation of MacBook Pro is the first to offer these features.

The display is thinner at 0.63 inches compared to the previous 0.66 inches, and the footprint is slightly smaller at 14.0 inches by 9.62 inches. The weight of the PROLED model is also lighter at 4.0 pounds for the M5 Pro and 4.1 pounds for the M5 Max models, compared to 4.7 pounds for the non-OLED versions. The upgraded display is a Tandem OLED display that provides deeper blacks, higher contrast levels, and a wider color gamut compared to the previous mini-LED Liquid Retina XDR panel.

The new MacBook Pro also features TrueTone, 120Hz ProMotion support, a Nano-texture glass treatment, and a Dynamic Island instead of the traditional notch. The performance remains the same as the non-OLED model, with the same M5 Pro and M5 Max chips, memory bandwidth options, and storage capacities.
