The 16.2-inch display at 3456 × 2234 pixels has room for a code editor, a terminal and documentation at once, or a photo app with its preview. Pixels are packed so densely that even small fonts stay sharp and fine detail in photos is easy to see. Large spreadsheets and long documents are more comfortable to work with too.
The M5 Pro CPU has 18 cores, the same number as the M5 Max configurations. A high core count pays off when compiling code, processing data, working on audio projects and running virtual machines: the work is split across many cores and finishes sooner.
The chip's GPU has 20 cores. They speed up photo editing, video editing and export, 3D work and machine learning tasks. Anyone rendering heavy 3D or long videos every day should look at the M5 Max configurations with 32 or 40 GPU cores; for photo, design and development, M5 Pro graphics are usually sufficient.
Unified memory is shared by the CPU and GPU, so graphics draw on the same 48 GB and do not depend on separate video memory. That is twice the memory of the 24 GB M5 Pro configurations, which helps with containers, virtual machines, large photos and local AI models. The 1 TB SSD holds the system and current projects.
The backlit keyboard has a Swedish (SWE) layout with Å, Ä and Ö on the keys, so two Estonian letters are already there, while Õ and Ü are typed via the Estonian layout in macOS. Wireless support covers Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) and Bluetooth 6.0, and a 1080p FaceTime HD camera handles video calls.
Software developers who need many cores and plenty of memory; photographers and designers who value a large, sharp display; video editors whose projects do not call for M5 Max graphics; and Estonian writers who prefer a Swedish layout with Ä and Ö keys.

Swedish (SWE), with Å, Ä and Ö on the keys. Estonian Õ and Ü and Cyrillic are typed through layouts added in macOS settings.
In these configurations both have 18 CPU cores. The M5 Pro GPU has 20 cores against 32 or 40 on the M5 Max, so the difference is mainly in graphics performance.
