The new MacBook Pro with the M1 chip at its heart is a beast. Or at least that’s what the folks pushing it to its limit have said lately. The build is excellent (albeit overdue for an aesthetic makeover), top-notch performance, battery life is perfect, and macOS is as good as ever. But it’s an expensive machine and comes with its own set of shortcomings too. To help you get the most out of your 13-inch MacBook Pro and overcome some of its limitations (hey, port selection), we’ve rounded up this exhaustive list of accessories that will take the productivity aspect of the Apple computing machine to the next level.
