Apple MacBook Pro 16 (M3, 2023)
The Apple MacBook Pro 16 (M3, 2023) is a newer version of the Apple MacBook Pro 16 (2019). The newer 2023 is better in almost every way. While the 2023 model has many design changes that improve the overall user experience, like a brighter 120Hz Mini LED display, a wider port selection, and full-size physical function keys, the most notable improvement is Apple's move from Intel CPUs and AMD GPUs to its in-house ARM-based SoC. The M3 chip is significantly faster and more power efficient, so not only do you get more processing power, but you also get much longer battery life and lower fan noise. At this point, there's no reason to get the 2019 MacBook Pro over the Apple silicon MacBook Pros.
