Apple's MacBook Pro gets the M4, too

Surprising absolutely nobody, Apple has stuffed the M4 processor into the Macbook Pro.

After announcing the M4 iMac and the M4 Mac Mini this week, two things have become crystal clear: Apple is pretty damned good at PR to get away with drip-feeding us product announcements like this; and it was inevitable that the MacBook Pro would get the M4 update this week too.

Both the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models are already some of the best laptops you can buy, so it's not really a surprise that most of the improvements here are all around the M4 upgrade.

There is a tweak to the webcam, which now offers the 12MP Center Stage camera like the M4 iMac, and a brighter display to make it easier to view in direct sunlight.
