Is this the right laptop for your work?
Office & hybrid work
A candidate for documents, browser tools and meetings when your business apps support macOS. Check your usual multitasking workload against the selected memory capacity.
Development & product teams
Consider it for macOS development and everyday coding. Size memory for your actual containers, simulators, virtual machines and project builds.
Design & content
Consider it for design work and occasional media editing. For sustained rendering or large assets, compare higher-memory configurations against your own project files.
Processor & graphics
The processor and graphics below describe your selected configuration. Check the GPU as well as the chip name when comparing quotes.
