The 14-inch MacBook Pro is available starting at $1,599, with the 16‑inch version starting at $2,499. With the M4 chip installed, the new MacBook Pro is up to 1.8x faster than the 13-inch MacBook Pro with M1, Apple said. Higher-end versions of the computer come equipped with M4 Pro and M4 Max versions of the new, more powerful chip.

Apple unveiled an M4-equipped iMac with Apple Intelligence on Monday priced at $1,299. Deliveries of both MacBook Pro and iMac will begin on Nov. 8.

The new and refreshed products come as Apple prepares to release its latest quarterly earnings after the market closes on Thursday, with analysts watching for early signs of an AI-driven iPhone 16 upgrade cycle.

Apple stock fell 1.5% Wednesday. It’s up almost 20% for the year, however.
