Acoustic Performance

Declared noise emission values in accordance with ECMA-109

1. L _W A,m is the mean A-weighted sound power level, rounded to the nearest 0.1 B.
2. L _p A,m is the mean A-weighted sound pressure level measured at operator position (rounded to the nearest 1 dB).
3. 1 B (bel) = 10 dB (decibel)
4. K _v is the statistical adder for computing upper-limit of A-weighted sound power level.
5. The quantity, L _W A,c (formerly called L _W Ad) may be computed from the sum of L _W A,m and K _v .
6. The Wireless web test browses 25 popular websites.
7. Configuration tested: 2.3GHz 8-core Intel Core i9 processor, 16GB memory, 1TB storage, Radeon Pro 5500M with 4GB of GDDR6 memory and automatic graphics switching Intel UHD Graphics 630.

1. 1GB = 1 billion bytes and 1TB = 1 trillion bytes; actual formatted capacity less.
2. Actual rating of 99.8 watt-hours. Testing conducted by Apple in October 2019 using preproduction 2.3GHz 8-core Intel Core i9-based 16-inch MacBook Pro systems with 16GB of RAM and 1TB SSD. The wireless web test measures battery life by wirelessly browsing 25 popular websites with display brightness set to 12 clicks from bottom or 75%. The Apple TV app movie playback test measures battery life by playing back HD 1080p content with display brightness set to 12 clicks from bottom or 75%. The standby test measures battery life by allowing a system, connected to a wireless network and signed in to an iCloud account, to enter standby mode with Safari and Mail applications launched and all system settings left at default. Battery life varies by use and configuration. See apple.com/batteries for more information.
3. Weight varies by configuration and manufacturing process.
4. iMovie, GarageBand, Pages, Numbers, and Keynote are available on the Mac App Store. Downloading apps requires an Apple ID and a device that is compatible with the OS version required for each app.
5. PVC-free AC power cord available in all regions except India and South Korea.
6. MacBook Pro achieved a Gold rating from EPEAT in the U.S. and Canada.
