The M4 MacBook Pros are here!!!

Finishing the week of Mac updates, the M4 MacBook Pro has finally arrived, with the M4, M4 Pro, and new M4 Max plus Thunderbolt 3, a nano-texture option (plus the display can show SDR content at up to 1000 nits), a better camera, and exactly a full day's worth of battery. First, the new M4 Max. The M4 Max has a 16-core CPU, 40-core GPU, and 500+ GB/s of memory bandwidth at the maxed-out version (which is $300 more). It's funny that not much has changed: still 128GB of RAM, and the GPU count has only increased by two from 38. Next, Thunderbolt 5 is also here, as well as an HDMI port with up to 8K resolution. After that, the nano-texture and 1000 nits SDR brightness, and after that the camera improvements (apparently it "delivers enhanced video quality in challenging lighting conditions). Finally, the battery. On the 16-inch M4 Pro version, we now have a full 24 hours of video streaming and 17 of web surfing. Also, the base M4 version now has the Space Black color it's been craving and a new port arrangement (one on the left, one on the right instead of two on the left). The M4 MacBook Pro starts at $1,599 on the 14" M4 with 16GB RAM (instead of the measly 8GB: FINALLY!!!) and 256GB storage.
