Can my 2015 MacBook Pro update past macOS Sierra 10.12.6?

Hi, I have an old early 2015 macbook and was wondering if it could update after MacOS Sierra 10.12.6 ?


Seems like some websites are not loading anymore... Like my version is too old to be loading those websites

An early 2015 MacBook Pro can be upgraded to Monterey (or earlier). See the following from Identify your MacBook Pro - Apple Support


MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015)

Model Identifier: MacBookPro12,1

Part Numbers: MF839xx/A, MF840xx/A, MF841xx/A, MF843xx/A

Newest compatible operating system: macOS Monterey


Be sure to have a current backup (something to have even when not doing an upgrade), then see instructions in: How to download and install macOS - Apple Support


Be aware that if you upgrade to Catalina 10.15 or later you will also need to update any non-Apple 32-bit apps. See: https://www.stclairsoft.com/Go64/
