Apple M4 Pro 12 Core
Opinion and specs
Our verdict
High-endThe Apple M4 Pro 12 Core is a high-end processor. It is a low-power chip that still performs like the mid-range ones: it draws what an ultraportable draws and performs like a work laptop. It came out in 2024.
It is currently fitted in a single laptop, which costs $1999.
Above $2299 there are clearly better options: for that money the Apple M5 Pro 15 Core is 50% faster. That is the sensible ceiling.
