Apple today unveiled its new MacBook Pro lineup powered by M4, M4 Pro, and M4 Max chips. The update comes with good news for external display support for some users:

  • M4 and M4 Pro: These versions of the MacBook Pro are unified in their support for external displays. Apple says that these models simultaneously support the built-in display and up to two external displays with up to 6K resolution at 60Hz over Thunderbolt, or one external display with up to 6K resolution at 60Hz over Thunderbolt and one external display with up to 4K resolution at 144Hz over HDMI. This is a big update from the base M3 MacBook Pro.

  • M4 Max: The M4 Max MacBook Pro can simultaneously support the built-in display and up to four external displays: Up to three external displays with 6K resolution at 60Hz over Thunderbolt and one external display with up to 4K resolution at 144Hz over HDMI. Or alternatively, up to three external displays: Up to two external displays with 6K resolution at 60Hz over Thunderbolt and one external display with up to 8K resolution at 60Hz or one external display with 4K resolution at 240Hz over HDMI. These specifications are unchanged compared to the M3 Max MacBook Pro.

The new 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models are available to order today. The first shipments will arrive to customers on November 8.
