The M5 MacBook Pro delivers 20% faster CPU performance and 35% GPU gains over M4, crushing the $4,000 M1 Ultra Mac Studio while starting at just $1,600. This review benchmarks the M5 against M4 MacBook Air and M4 Mac mini across Geekbench 6, Cinebench, Death Stranding gaming, and AI workloads, revealing how Apple Silicon has achieved 240% performance gains since M1—dwarfing the Intel era’s pathetic 75% improvement over five years. From the thermal throttling nightmares and butterfly keyboard failures of 2016-2019 MacBook Pros to today’s predictable, reliable update cycle, the M5 proves boring consistency beats revolutionary chaos. Ray tracing performance, neural engine improvements, and PCIe-5 SSD speeds make this the most capable base-model Mac ever shipped.
