Configurations

Apple lists configure to order options on its MacBook Pro page at apple.com. The release gives starting prices only. The lineup offers up to 128GB of unified memory and up to 16TB of storage. One launch report lists the highest configuration, a 16 inch M5 Max with 128GB of memory and 16TB of storage, at $14,549. Apple's release does not list that price, so check the configurator before you buy.
