Apple MacBook Pro 16

When the 16-inch MacBook Pro 16 first hit the scene back in 2019, tech critics rejoiced. Finally, Apple’s butterfly keyboard design flew away on a breeze. In its place, Apple inserted a ton of user-friendly features. From a more comfortable keyboard to a physical escape key, the Apple MacBook Pro 16 prioritizes your experience.

Apple even alternated how the laptop dissipates heat. That means your processor runs faster, so you get more power and efficiency. Check out the specs below.

Screen size 16 inches
Battery life 11 hours
Weight 4.3 pounds
Touchscreen or 2-in-1 No
10-key No
Supported external monitors 2+
Processor i7
RAM (memory) 16GB

Along with improved thermals and a better keyboard, the Apple MacBook Pro 16 also boasts a long battery life. You’re also getting high-quality speakers. Comfortable and easy to use, it comes with a ton of storage space — 512GB and 16GB RAM — so you’re getting a big bang for your buck!

🧎‍♀️ This is bolo-knee: In videos with tens of millions of views, TikTokkers say the most comfortable way to sit on a plane is with your knees up to your chest and your feet on the edge of the seat, with the seatbelt fastened around your feet. This is a bad idea for a bunch of reasons — mostly because it could catapult you forward in severe turbulence.

100-degree heat

Cuts your EV’s driving range by 31%. It’s all based on the outside-versus-inside temp; 100 degrees is 30 degrees above a comfortable 70-degree interior. A 10-degree winter day puts you 60 degrees below 70, and so it sucks up 51% of your battery to keep you warm. That’s nearly a full percentage point per degree!
