It's not as different from the previous model as you might have expected.

The short version

  • It’s not as different from the previous model as you might have expected.
  • LOS ANGELES—For about five minutes on an extremely crowded showroom floor, I got to take pictures of the new MacBook Pro and test out some of its new features.
  • First impressions: It’s not as much of a departure from the previous design as I expected, but the outstanding OLED display steals the show regardless.

What happened

The first thing I noticed was that it’s lighter. My daily driver is a 14-inch MacBook Pro (M1 Max), and it’s a bit weighty for a 14-incher.

Why it matters

Picking up the new model, I could immediately tell it was lighter.
