Unfortunately, the only user-replaceable part is the battery, so there's no way to upgrade any components later on. The keyboard feels comfortable and doesn't cause fatigue over time, its haptic touchpad is large and responsive, and the webcam's video quality is outstanding. Apple's M1 Pro and M1 Max SoCs can handle demanding workloads like video editing and 3D animation, and thanks to their incredible power efficiency, the battery lasts over 12 hours of light productivity and 9 hours of video playback. It also has a wide color gamut, making it suitable for content creators. Its sharp Mini LED display can ramp up the refresh rate adaptively up to 120Hz to make motion appear smoother, and it can produce deep blacks and bright highlights to deliver a fantastic HDR experience.

It looks nearly identical to its bigger brother, the Apple MacBook Pro 16 (2021), and it feels equally well-built with a full aluminum chassis.

The Apple MacBook Pro 14 (2021) is a premium laptop available with Apple's M1 Pro and M1 Max SoCs (System on a Chip).
