The latest 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pro laptops come with your choice of the new M2 Pro or M2 Max chips that offer the best performance yet from Apple.
But like the 2021 MacBook Pro machines compared to Intel MacBooks, Apple isn’t trading high performance for weaker battery life. The new M2 MacBook Pro laptops achieve both more battery life and increased performance.
M2 MacBook Pro battery life
- The M2 16-inch MacBook Pro offers 22 hours of video playback on a single charge
- Up 1 hour from the M1 16-inch MacBook Pro
- The M2 14-inch MacBook Pro offers 18 hours of video playback on a single charge
- Up 1 hour from the M1 14-inch MacBook Pro
- Both new MacBook Pro models feature fast charging (~50% charge in 30 minutes)
With those numbers, Apple says the M2 MacBook Pro machines offer the “longest battery life ever on a Mac.”
