New OLED MacBook Pro is about half a pound lighter and slightly thinner than the mini-LED model, MacRumors reports
Apple's new OLED MacBook Pro is lighter and slimmer than the mini-LED models it replaces, according to a size and weight comparison published by MacRumors based on Apple's published specifications.
Lighter by about half a pound
The 14-inch model with a Pro chip is listed at 3 pounds, down from 3.5 pounds for the previous mini-LED version, while the Max configuration is 3.1 pounds, down from 3.6. The 16-inch model drops from 4.6 pounds (Pro) and 4.7 pounds (Max) to 4 pounds and 4.1 pounds respectively. MacRumors notes that OLED panels do not need a backlight, which helps explain the weight saving.
