Overview

• All three M5 devices are available to pre‑order now and go on sale October 22, with pricing unchanged: MacBook Pro from $1,599, iPad Pro from $999 (11‑inch) and $1,299 (13‑inch), Vision Pro at $3,499.
• Apple claims over 4x peak GPU compute for AI versus M4, up to 3.5x faster AI performance and up to 1.6x faster graphics on the new MacBook Pro and iPad Pro, supported by roughly 153GB/s unified memory bandwidth.
• The MacBook Pro refresh is limited to a 14‑inch base model with the M5, adding faster SSD performance, an estimated 24‑hour battery life, and a new 4TB storage option, while higher‑end models remain on M4 Pro/Max.
• The M5 iPad Pro in 11‑ and 13‑inch sizes gains the N1 chip for Wi‑Fi 7, Bluetooth 6 and Thread, the C1X modem on cellular versions, faster charging to about 50% in around 30 minutes, and 12GB RAM on 256GB and 512GB configurations.
• The updated Vision Pro moves to M5 with a new Dual Knit Band, renders roughly 10% more pixels, supports refresh rates up to 120Hz, and extends battery life to about 2.5 hours of general use or 3 hours of video.
