Design and portability: "The MacBook is so thin and light - it's perfect for carrying around in a backpack or purse."

Does everything and more you'd expect it to. People are upset that it starts at 8 GB of RAM, which of course I wouldn’t mind it starting with 12 or 16 gb. But, as the average consumer, I don’t necessarily need more and don’t run into any issues in my use. I do plan to keep it for hopefully 8+ years like my 2015 MacBook Pro, so hopefully it holds up. Decided to get this over the Air due to a better display and 120 hertz, better battery, double the base storage, and HDMI port. Figured if I’m keeping it for a long time, the extra money is worth it for that display as it will probably be the standard in the next few years.

The 14" MacBook Pro with the M3 chip delivers impressive speed and power in a sleek, portable design. The 10-core GPU handles creative and multitasking workloads with ease, and the vibrant Liquid Retina XDR display is stunning for both work and entertainment. While 8GB RAM may feel limited for pro users handling heavier tasks, the overall performance remains smooth and responsive. Built for Apple Intelligence, this MacBook is future-ready. A premium choice for students, creators, and professionals who value performance and portability.

I recently bought the MacBook Pro, and it has been a fantastic upgrade! The design feels incredibly solid and premium, and the display quality is truly impressive. The colors are vibrant, and the brightness levels make it easy to use even in well-lit environments. Performance-wise, this laptop handles everything I throw at it, from work tasks to more intensive applications. It runs smoothly without any lag, even when multitasking. I also appreciate the range of ports; it’s convenient not needing extra adapters for everyday connections. The battery life has exceeded my expectations, lasting through long work sessions without needing a charge. Overall, I highly recommend the MacBook Pro for anyone looking for a reliable, high-performance laptop. Definitely worth the investment!

The MacBook Pro with the M3 chip, 8GB RAM, and 512GB storage offers a strong balance of performance and portability for everyday users and light professional tasks. The M3 chip enhances efficiency, allowing smooth multitasking for web browsing, word processing, and basic creative work, though 8GB RAM may feel limiting for memory-intensive apps like video editing or graphic design. The 512GB SSD is sufficient for standard needs but might run short for users with extensive media files. The Liquid Retina XDR display is stunning, providing excellent color accuracy and brightness, a standout feature for creatives. With impressive battery life and Apple’s reliable design, this model is ideal for on-the-go productivity, though power users may prefer higher RAM configurations.

I upgraded from the 2020 Macbook Pro i5, so this felt like a whole new world. The crispness of the display was the first thing I noticed. The battery life is pretty reliable and lasts at least 10hrs after a full charge with heavy usage. The speed is also awesome thanks to the M3 chip. I’m very happy with this purchase

Traded in my Macbook Air M1 in for this Pro! As for the 8gb of RAM, this model is perfectly fine for most people not doing serious heavy lifting. I've experienced no memory issues or Apple beach balls while doing all the normal daily things most people do. I've had numerous tabs open while watching youtube, browsing etc and not a single hiccup. The display is truly outstanding! It's bright and gorgeous! The battery life is simply amazing ... took me several days to kill it! Also, the speakers sound really great - major improvement from my Macbook Air. This thing flies too, it's so fast! And, I know these Pros have a fan but in my week's use I've never heard it come on once. It stays ultra cool! I'm very happy with my purchase, and Best Buy even price-matched their member Black Friday sale price for me too, so I got it for $150 cheaper. If you're like me looking for a nice upgrade on what you currently have, or just need something new, but don't do super-intensive video/audio/graphics editing-type tasks, then you can't go wrong here. If you're on the fence about the RAM, I'd recommend watching Austin Evans' youtube video about this exact model. That might useful for you! Couldn't be happier ...

I use both Windows (professionally) and MacOS (personally) so I'm not completely biased to Apple. There are pros and cons to both. Overall I really love this iteration of the Pro. I originally bought a MacBook Air 15" M2 (also a great laptop) but ended up going with the MacBook Pro 14" M3 when it was on sale. It's a great laptop overall and I prefer the upgrades over the Air (ProMotion screen and enhanced speakers). Those upgrades plus the increase in storage (512GB vs 256GB) were worth $200 to me. 14" is also a great size for a laptop. I use this laptop for Excel, Windows, internet browsing and shopping, podcasting, email, text messages, and video calls. I've never run into a performance issue with 8GB of RAM (your mileage may vary).

The MacBook Pro 14" with the M3 chip has exceeded my expectations. It’s lightning fast, even with multiple apps and tabs open, and the 10-core GPU makes creative tasks smooth and effortless. The Retina display is bright, sharp, and perfect for long work sessions, while the battery easily lasts all day. The design feels solid yet lightweight, and the keyboard and trackpad are extremely comfortable. The only downside is the premium price, but the performance, build quality, and reliability make it absolutely worth it. This MacBook Pro has made my daily workflow faster and more enjoyable.

I love how it looks and user friendly, can be great for someone getting started in the apple MacBook field. Very fast and great pricing for started.

I love this thing. I play the Sims 4 (say what you will) and my 2015 MacBook Air wasn't cutting it anymore, even with the graphics on the lowest settings. I upgraded to this laptop and I'm so happy with it! Runs so smoothly, cuts down loading screen times by 75% at least, and everything looks way better. In addition, everything runs so smoothly that I'll be cooking, have a recipe pulled up, playing an audio book, and texting through iMessage all at once and it takes almost no battery for hours of that. Finally, it's just beautiful. The structure and design is so simple but classy- I love how it looks. Overall, very pleased.

Amazing Product! You cannot go wrong with getting this MacBook Pro. The Build Quality is Amazing and Above other Laptops. Performance and Speed is also great. Not to mention the Display and Speakers. Everything you talk about this MacBook Pro is going to be above and beyond what you get with other similar products. You also instantly know that this is a Product that will last Years and Years to come. New Space Black Color is Amazing too. It looks very Sleek, especially in the Dark. Not to mention it continues to look Amazing because of the lack of Finger Prints.

This new Macbook Pro was purchased to replace a Macbook Pro that was purchased in 2011. At the time of the first purchase, I was using PC based operating systems, and I was frankly, sick and tired of PC's going obsolete quick, or breaking down due to poor quality. So I went the Apple route and I never looked back. I was originally looking to purchase the cheaper Macbook Air until I read that the computer throttles down when it overheats. So I looked at the next one up. It had no mag safe charger, a must have in my opinion. I've seen too many PC's with damaged motherboards because of torquing between the cord and unit. So I ended up with this MacBook. This mac is very fast with the M3 chip, although the M2 would have been ok. But the mag safe wasn't available on that one, so I was back to this model. I wanted to get more RAM but the price was too much. In the old days of using PCs, I'd simply put more RAM in. But you can't do this with this mac. They use what they call unified RAM, and its said that 8 MB (or unified), is like 16 onboard RAM. That was ok with me....as long as I no longer got that long lag time due to the system. Other pro's: Graphics are good. In addition to password protection there is fingerprint access. Speed is good WIFI Connectivity good Mag safe charging SIRI available Cons: Price Get a Mac......future proof yourself.

This is a fantastic laptop. The entire Apple Eco-System makes it extremely easy to work on the Mac, iPad, or iPhone, all quickly and seamlessly. The 14" MacBook Pro M3 is perfect for my needs, which is writing, editing podcasts and video, and managing my personal affairs, away from my work computer. The screen is amazing, it's blazing fast, and so easy to use. Having to go back to my Windows based work is such a downer. Highly Recommend!

We are using it for any video editing or anything. Our last base model MacBook Pro lasted 10 years and still works fine! So far everything been great! Crystal clear screen, and it’s nice to have the speakers on the side! While it’s surprising they went with 8gb of ram in the base model, we haven’t come close to using it all with regular daily activities! Got a great deal on open box and being a certified by Apple, their completely safe!

I love my Mac book. The associate was very friendly helping me pick out my laptop. It works very good and I love it. Best Buy is amazing !! Speed of the laptop very fast! Battery life is at 100 !! Display is amazing I would buy it again !!
