The problem with Apple’s MacBook was a confusing line of similar machines with different names, different chips, different hardware, and everything in between.

These new M3-equipped 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pros are a clearer sign of Apple’s direction.
The company has killed off the long-suffering 13-inch MacBook Pro and, at the same time, put an end to an aging design and Divisive and frustrating Touch Bar. These Pro machines, especially the M3 Max models, are great for professionals and the MacBook Airs are for everyone else.
