Acoustic Performance

Declared noise emission values in accordance with ECMA-109

Sound Power Level
L W A,m (B)
Sound Pressure Level
Operator Position
L p A,m (dB)
Idle 1.3 (K V = 0.3) 4
Wireless web 1.3 (K V = 0.3) 4

1:The mean A-weighted sound power level, or L W A,m, is rounded to the closest 0.1 B.

2:At the operator position, the mean A-weighted sound pressure level is expressed as L p A,m, rounded to the nearest 1 dB.

3:10 dB (decibels) equals 1 B (bel).

4:The statistical adder used to calculate the upper limit of the A-weighted sound power level is called K v.

5:The sum of L W A,m and K v can be used to get the quantity L W A,c (previously known as L W Ad).

6:The wireless web test explores six tabs filled with media and other types of content.

7:Apple M2 Max processor, 12-core CPU / 30-core GPU, 64GB unified memory, and 2TB storage were the configuration evaluated.

  1. The top corners of the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro displays are rounded. The screens are 14.2 inches and 16.2 inches diagonally when measured as a typical rectangular shape (real viewable area is less).
  2. In temperatures below 25° C.
  3. Actual watt-hour rating of 69.6 (14-inch model) or 99.6 (16-inch model). Apple tested preproduction 14-inch MacBook Pro systems with Apple M2 Pro, 12-core CPU, 19-core GPU, 16GB of RAM, and 1TB SSD in November and December 2022, and preproduction 16-inch MacBook Pro systems with Apple M2 Pro, 12-core CPU, 19-core GPU, 16GB of RAM, and 1TB SSD. The wireless web test assesses battery life by wirelessly browsing 25 popular websites while setting the display brightness to 8 clicks from the bottom. The battery life of the Apple TV app movie playback test is measured by playing back HD 1080p video with the display brightness set at 8 clicks from the bottom. Battery life varies depending on use and settings. More information can be found at apple.com/batteries.
  4. 1GB is one billion bytes, and 1TB equals one trillion bytes; real formatted capacity is smaller.
  5. Wi-Fi 6E is available in countries where it is supported.
  6. The weight varies depending on the arrangement and production process.
  7. The Mac App Store includes iMovie, GarageBand, Pages, Numbers, and Keynote. To download apps, you’ll need an Apple ID and a device that supports the OS version required for each app.
    Data is correct as of product introduction.
  8. The mass of certified recycled material in relation to the whole mass of the device, excluding packaging and any accessories, is referred to as product recycled content.
  9. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency owns the registered trademarks ENERGY STAR and the ENERGY STAR mark.
  10. Apple’s Regulated Substances Specification outlines the company’s prohibitions on the use of specific chemical substances in materials used in Apple devices, accessories, production processes, and packaging used to send products to end users. International laws or directives, regulatory agencies, eco-label requirements, environmental standards, and Apple policies all contribute to restrictions. Except for AC power cables in India, Thailand (for two-prong AC power cords), and South Korea, where we continue to seek government approval for our PVC and phthalates replacement, every Apple product is free of PVC and phthalates. Apple products comply with European Union Directive 2011/65/EU and its revisions, including lead exclusions for high-temperature solder. Apple is aiming to eliminate the usage of certain exempted chemicals in new products.
  11. According to Apple’s retail packaging. The fiber content is calculated using a weight breakdown of retail packaging in the United States. Our assessments of plastic content and packing weight omit adhesives, inks, and coatings.
