Apple has officially announced the next-generation 14-inch MacBook Pro worldwide in a blog post published yesterday. While the design stays largely unchanged, the real headline is the M6 chip — the company's first silicon built on a 2nm architecture.
So what does the new model actually bring to the table, and how much will it cost in Turkey? Here's everything you need to know.
The M6 chip takes performance up a level
The M6 features a 12-core CPU built from 2 super cores, 4 performance cores and 6 efficiency cores. The GPU also gets 12 cores. The previous M5 shipped with 10 cores each for the CPU and GPU, meaning both units receive a direct core-count bump this generation.
According to Apple, the M6 houses the world's fastest CPU core. The company promises up to a 30% improvement in graphics performance compared with the M5, and up to 25% in AI workloads.
A big step forward for AI
One of the most notable upgrades hides in the Neural Engine. The 16-core unit in the M5 has evolved into a dual-system 16-core design — 32 cores in total. Combined with additional Neural Accelerators on the GPU, this architecture allows Siri AI and local large language models to run far more smoothly on-device.
On the memory side, the entry level remains 16 GB, with options going up to 32 GB. Memory bandwidth has risen from 153 GB/s to 170 GB/s, though that increase applies only to configurations with 24 GB or 32 GB of memory. Storage starts at 1 TB and can be configured up to 4 TB. Since Apple removed the 512 GB option last March, the 1 TB starting point carries over to this model as well.
Same screen and design, refreshed wireless
The device keeps the familiar 14.2-inch Liquid Retina XDR Mini-LED panel, offering 3024 x 1964 pixel resolution, 120 Hz ProMotion dynamic refresh rate and 1,600 nits of peak HDR brightness, with an optional nano-texture coating for those who want it. The laptop measures 1.55 cm thick and weighs 1.55 kg, and comes in Space Black and Silver color options.
Connectivity sees no major changes: 3x Thunderbolt 4 (USB-C), HDMI, MagSafe 3, an SDXC card slot and a 3.5mm headphone jack all carry over. However, thanks to the new N1 wireless chip, the machine now supports Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6. On the battery front, the previous generation's 72.4 Wh cell remains, with Apple promising up to 24 hours of video playback or up to 16 hours of web use on a single charge.
