![]() The 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pro start at $1,999 and $2,499, respectfully.

The new 16-inch MacBook Pro (2021) is the first big-screen laptop with Apple silicon the previous 16-inch MacBook Pro, released in 2019, packed an Intel processor. ![]() The battery size likely isn't factor in adding weight, as the 14-inch MacBook Pro (2021) and the 13-inch MacBook Pro (2020) is still rated at the same 17 hours. The increased display size is the primary thing causing the new MacBook Pro to be a bigger and heavier machine than its predecessor, but the addition of more ports and a new keyboard aren't making it any lighter. It not only has a more edge-to-edge (thinner bezels), but the screen is larger too: 14.2-inches versus 13.3-inches.
