Apple\u2019s flagship 16-inch MacBook Pro has reigned supreme in the world of creator-focused laptops since its M-series processor overhaul in 2021. Since then, we\u2019ve mostly seen the same design with year-over-year chip bumps and small refinements. \u201cIf it ain\u2019t broke,\u201d right?<\/p>\n

If you want to know everything about this machine, you can read our review of the last-gen M4 Pro \/ M4 Max models \u2014 it pretty much all holds up with the M5 models that replace them. But this time around, in addition to the usual testing and use of the new M5 Max model, it\u2019s worth asking a specific new question: whether you should consider a new MacBook Pro if you\u2019re currently using an M1 Pro or M1 Max model.<\/p>\n

I see you in the comments section, 2021 MacBook owners, wondering when an upgrade is worth it. And I\u2019m here for you. We got our hands on some four-and-a-half-year-old MacBook Pros to test them against Apple\u2019s latest and greatest, and it\u2019s safe to say it\u2019s worth upgrading \u2014 for some of you, at least.<\/p>\n
