MacBook Pro 14 (M3 Pro) vs MacBook Pro 16 (M4 Pro)

The M4 Max (16-core CPU, 40-core GPU, 75 W TDP) crushes the M3 Pro (11-core CPU, 14-core GPU, 24 W TDP) in raw compute and graphics power, making it the clear winner for heavy workloads. The M3 Pro is best for mobile professionals needing 18GB RAM and 14-hour battery life for video editing or coding on the go, without the bulk.
