About this MacBook Pro

The 2019 MacBook Pro is a slight improvement from the 2018 15-inch MacBook Pro model with a smaller storage option and the option for a lower clocked 13 inch model. The 2019 MacBook Pro is considered to be a mid-cycle refresh to the previous MacBook Pro line-up. It features a 14 nm, 8th Generation “Coffee Lake” 2.3 GHz Intel “Core i9″ processor (I9-9880H) as well as 16 GB of onboard 2400 MHz DDR4 SDRAM.

Apple has stuck with the same storage options as the previous model (512 GB, 1 TB, 2 TB) and has reserved dedicated graphics cards for the 15” MacBook Pro models. While this model also features 4 USB C ports similar to MVVM2LL/A specs as opposed to the 2 ports featured on the previous non-touch bar 13″ model.

This MacBook Pro comes installed with macOS Mojave 10.14.5 and can be upgraded to the latest macOS (Ventura). This 15-inch MacBook Pro measures 0.61 in ×13.75 in ×9.48 in weighs of 4.02 lbs (1.83 kg).

Common questions

Is MV912LL/A the same as A1990?

Not exactly. MV912LL/A usually points to a specific retail configuration, while A1990 identifies the broader Apple hardware family. Always check the EMC and model identifier too.

What MacBook Pro is model A1990?

A1990 is the Apple A-number shown for this MacBook Pro family. Use the order number, EMC, and model identifier on this page to narrow the exact configuration.

What does EMC 3359 mean?

The EMC number is another Apple hardware identifier. It helps separate closely related models that may share a similar name, year, or A-number.

Can the RAM or SSD be upgraded?

Check the spec table for the exact configuration. Many newer Apple Silicon Macs have memory and storage integrated into the board, so RAM and SSD upgrades are often not practical after purchase.

What should I search if this page is not the exact configuration?
