    Unmatched Performance in a Sleek Design The MacBook Pro 14” with the M3 chip is a powerhouse in every sense. Apple’s new M3 chip delivers exceptional speed and efficiency, making multitasking and running intensive applications like video editing or 3D rendering effortless. The 14-inch Liquid Retina XDR display is stunning, offering incredible brightness, color accuracy, and contrast that makes working on creative projects a joy. Battery life is another standout feature — I easily get a full day of heavy use without needing to recharge. The design is sleek and compact, yet the performance rivals even larger machines. The keyboard is comfortable for long typing sessions, and the larger trackpad is precise as always.What impressed me most is how silent it runs, even under heavy workloads, thanks to Apple’s excellent thermal management. Whether you’re a professional creator, developer, or just someone who values speed and reliability, the MacBook Pro 14” with M3 chip is worth every penny.

    I am a Brooklyn Professional photographer, going from a M1 to M3 chip is a major upgrade. The speed of my work flow has become efficient. It serves the Photoshop app with a vivd screen that really can handle HDR. And the Battery Life is impressive especially when tethering. The transition was seamless thanks to my trade value , the BEST BUY CREDIT CARD and BB total membership . Really brought great value and incentive to my purchase.

    Overall it’s an amazing upgrade from my 2017 MacBook Pro 13in. The graphics are amazing, battery life is great, I use it a lot and charge it about once a week or so, if you’re thinking about getting one, definitely do so.

    this thing is a monster. but I will say the trackpad randomly cracked while it was in my backpack… No other damage to it… I’m kind of confused about that, but purchased AppleCare plus so that should be an easy fix… Battery life is great. screen It quite nice. I wish they kept the keyboard from the Earlier models I like individual keys. I will also say I did like the weight of the air better… But my workload includes using apps like ProTools and Photoshop with raw images so it does offer some peace of mind with the dual fans…But any of apples silicon computers are beasts

    Absolutely love this laptop. It was time for an upgrade from my 2011 MacBook Pro. This laptop is great at battery life. I can use it all day 10 hours and it will maybe take away 25%-30%. So worth the extra hundred compared to the air.

    This is truly the best computer I have ever had. I use it mainly for photo and video editing and it is wonderful. I've had it for about 3 months and it has never overheated even a bit. The battery can last me days. I am very happy with this purchase. I also want to mention that the customer service from bestbuy is excellent. I will definitely continue shopping here.

    “Powerful Performance in a Sleek Package”

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The MacBook Pro with the M3 chip, 8GB RAM, and 512GB storage in silver is a powerhouse for professionals. Its sleek design and stunning Retina display make it a pleasure to use, especially for tasks requiring high precision. The M3 chip delivers impressive performance, handling everything from coding to video editing with ease, despite the relatively modest 8GB of RAM. The 512GB SSD ensures fast boot times and ample storage for most users. Battery life is excellent, lasting through a full workday. However, the limited RAM might be a bottleneck for heavy multitasking or demanding applications. Overall, it’s a solid choice for users needing a blend of power, portability, and elegance.

    I came from an M2 13-inch Pro and am loving it. I didn't think I needed an upgrade but it felt that the touchbar and old screen design was oudated. I got the 13-inch bc of its lower price upon release but Apple releasing this entry level 14-inch M3 model, I had to. I am loving its new design and its multiple ports. Perfect for my daily work and personal usage. Love it!

    I have been a Mac user for years and I've been slowly converting my son over. This purchase is a send off to college. His particular school and his chosen discipline (engineering) accommodates both Win?No and Mac. My first MacBook Pro lasted 16years and I am on my 2nd. This would have easily been 4 or 5 Windows units in that amount of time. No critical errors, no blue screen, no hunting for drivers, nothing lost during an update.......Mac simply works and works well. Updates are always free and there is new things on the horizon all the time. Once you go Mac........

    The MacBook Pro was an excellent purchase. It is a very good computer. Opening with the fingerprint is a success. The battery has a good performance. Since I became an Apple user, my work has become easier. I have been an Apple user for about 20 years and having to deal with another type of equipment is very difficult. Apple makes everything easy for me. I give it an A+++++ (5 stars)

    My husband and I have a photography and media business. We’ve had this Mac book pro on our “wish list” for so long and finally have one! This is the BEST laptop for what we do! The picture is such high quality as well as the sound and over all user friendly! It’s not just what we wanted but what we needed. This laptop exceeds our expectations.
