Which is the best new MacBook Pro?

The one that best meets your (unspecified) requirements, and within your (unspecified) budget.

You’ll want to create a list of what you want and what you don’t, to narrow your choice.

Considerations include storage requirements, portability requirements, screen size, battery life, performance, etc.

Also details such as if you’re using the MacBook Pro in one spot, a desktop can be a better trade-off.

Performance-wise, Geekbench i9 single and multi-core score: 1399 / 6209, versus 16” 2024 M4 Pro 4070 / 24055

I use my MacBook Pro for work and for personal, but it is a 16" 2019 MacBook Pro, what model is the best to purchase now??

Your 2019 Intel MBP is still quite capable of running the latest macOS 26.

The next round of MBP has no been released yet... I might consider waiting if you are not currently desperate

Apple offers a selection tool:

Personally, I went from a 16" 2019 i9 MBP to a 16" M4 Pro MBP with 48 GB memory, 2 TB storage, and the nano-texture display.
