Apple fans have a new MacBook Pro to get their hands on.

The updated Macbook Pro models were expected for months, but supply-chain issues meant the launch was delayed from last year to now.

The rollout of the devices using Apple’s latest M2 Pro and M2 Max chip sis an outgrowth of the company’s decision to use semiconductors designed in-house, instead of relying on Intel processors.

The new models have faster wireless connectivity, HDMI 2.1 support, and a few other features that will make the Mac faster by around 20 per cent.

Orders for the 14-inch and 16-inch laptops, as well as the Mac Mini, will kick off from today, and be available from January 24.
