The Apple MacBook Pro "M3 Pro" 12-Core CPU/18-Core GPU 16-Inch (Late 2023) model features a 4.05 GHz Apple M3 Pro processor with twelve cores (6 performance cores and 6 efficiency cores), an 18-core GPU, a 16-core Neural Engine, 18 GB or 36 GB of "unified" onboard RAM, and a 512 GB onboard SSD. Both the RAM and the SSD could be custom configured with higher end options at the time of initial system purchase, but not upgraded subsequently.

Offered in silver (pictured) and "Space Black" color (but not in the gunmetal "Space Gray"), this notebook has an integrated 1080p FaceTime HD webcam, a "high-fidelity six-speaker sound system with force-cancelling woofers," a backlit "Magic Keyboard" with a "Touch ID" sensor, and a large "Force Touch" trackpad.

Additionally, it has a high-resolution LED-backlit 16.2" widescreen 3456x2234 (254 ppi, 1000 nits sustained, 1600 nits peak HDR, 600 nits SDR, 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio) "Liquid Retina XDR" display, and a integrated battery that provides an Apple estimated 15-22 hours of runtime.

Connectivity includes Wi-Fi 6E (802.11ax), Bluetooth 5.3, three Thunderbolt 4 ports (USB-C connector), an HDMI 2.1 port, an SDXC-capable SD card slot, a 3.5 mm headphone jack, and a "MagSafe 3" power connector.

Compared to its predecessor, this 16" "Late 2023" MacBook Pro model has a slightly brighter screen, faster processor and graphics processor as well as a new black color option.
