Community Reviews

This 16-inch MacBook Pro stands out for the nano-texture display, which is still rare on MacBook deals and is the main reason the configuration feels special. The 48GB memory and 1TB SSD make it a strong high-end setup, and the machine is still described as under 5 pounds and portable for a laptop. Pricing comparisons put it near prior M5 Max money, with similar or lower prices seen on other MacBook Pro configurations and refurbs. The main cautions are that the price has climbed, B and H Photo has a zero-return policy on opened laptops, and the larger chassis can feel heavy over a full day.

Common Questions (4)

  • It is competitive by Apple standards, but similar configurations have been seen lower: about $2,700 on a B&H EDU match, $2,400 at Micro Center, and $3,189 for a same-spec Apple refurb. A 14-inch model with similar specs was also listed at $2,899.

  • The nano-texture display is a rare option on MacBook deals and is the main reason to choose this configuration over a standard glossy screen. It reduces glare, while a matte screen protector can approximate the look if you do not want to pay for the factory finish.

  • The 16-inch model weighs under 5 pounds and is still considered portable for a laptop. It is fine for quick trips, but carrying it all day can feel heavy.

  • B&H Photo has a zero-return policy on opened laptops, so opened units are not returnable. The practical fallback is an exchange instead of a refund.

You can apply a matte screen protector to get basically the same look

I don't think the 16 inch is getting replaced any time soon.

I ordered one before the price hike 16" M5 pro with 48Gb 2TB for $3,099. Cancelled it because liked the nano texture screen in person. Then proce went up and thought I'd just wait for next gen. Ended up getting this, seems I essentially traded 1tb ssd for nano texture screen.
