Don't panic yet! A black screen on MacBook Pro can often be resolved, whether you have an old MacBook or a recent M3 device. We've been there many times (after all, we've been testing and reviewing MacBooks for over a decade) and, while we find MacBooks to be highly reliable and some of the best graphic design laptops, sometimes they have an error (usually at the worst time when you need to get on with work).
To clarify, it's normal to see a black screen on MacBook Pro (or a grey or blue screen) at least once when you startup your Mac. Sometimes the startup process can take a little longer, especially if it's been a while since you've used your device. Sit it out, and the laptop might start up.
