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 6 tabs with a mix of content including media.
7. Configuration tested: M2, 8-core CPU, 10-core GPU, 8GB unified memory, 512GB storage.

1. Testing conducted by Apple in May 2022 using preproduction 13-inch MacBook Pro systems with Apple M2, 8-core CPU, 10-core GPU, 8GB of RAM, and 256GB SSD. The wireless web test measures battery life by wirelessly browsing 25 popular websites with display brightness set to 8 clicks from bottom. The Apple TV app movie playback test measures battery life by playing back HD 1080p content with display brightness set to 8 clicks from bottom. Battery life varies by use and configuration. See apple.com/batteries for more information.
2. 1GB = 1 billion bytes and 1TB = 1 trillion bytes; actual formatted capacity less.
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. Data accurate as of product launch.
6. ENERGY STAR and the ENERGY STAR mark are registered trademarks owned by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
7. Apple defines its restrictions on harmful substances, including definitions for what Apple considers to be “free of,” in the Apple Regulated Substances Specification. Every Apple product is free of PVC and phthalates with the exception of AC power cords in India, Thailand (for two-prong AC power cords), and South Korea, where we continue to seek government approval for our PVC and phthalates replacement.
