The MacBook Pro "Core i9" 2.4 16-Inch 5600M (2019, Scissor Keyboard) is a custom-ordered version of either the "Core i7" 2.6 or "Core i9" 2.3 16-Inch models, documented separately due to its unique identifiers and OS support. Aside from the graphics processor, these models can be configured identically.
This model is powered by a 14 nm, 9th Generation "Coffee Lake" 2.4 GHz Intel "Core i9" processor (I9-9980HK) with eight independent cores, a 16 MB shared L3 cache, and 16 GB of non-upgradable 2666 MHz DDR4 SDRAM (a 64 GB option was available at purchase). It includes 1 TB of onboard flash storage and dual graphics processors: an AMD Radeon Pro 5600M with 8 GB of HBM2 memory and an integrated Intel UHD Graphics 630.
Externally, it features a 720p FaceTime HD webcam, a "new Magic Keyboard" with a redesigned scissor mechanism and inverted-T arrow keys, a custom "Touch Bar" with a separate Esc key and "Touch ID" sensor, and a large "Force Touch" trackpad.
It also has a high-resolution 16.0" widescreen 3072x1920 (226 ppi, 500 nits) LED-backlit "Retina" display with True Tone and an adjustable refresh rate, plus a battery with an estimated 11-hour life.
Available in silver or "Space Gray" aluminum, it weighs 4.3 pounds (2.0 kg). Connectivity includes 802.11ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, four "Thunderbolt 3" ports (USB-C), and a 3.5 mm headphone jack.
Compared to its predecessor, this model offers the same processor but a larger display, faster RAM and graphics, an improved keyboard design with scissor switches and better layout, higher quality audio, and longer battery life.
