Apple sent out invites yesterday for a pre-Halloween Mac announcement. The MacBook Pro is believed most likely to get updated at the event, but honestly iMac is likely not out of the question or maybe even MacBook Air. So to avoid buyer’s remorse, maybe wait until after October 30th to buy a new machine.
Knew this was coming when I asked the Apple Employee if “when the m3 MacBooks drop will we get good trade in values on our m2?” And she was point blank like “yes”
This was a few weeks ago now
If M3 Pro were to be released, would you think it’d be worth it trading in my M2 Pro 14” for the M3 Pro 14” base model?? Bought it in late May 🙈
Useless keep your m2 for several years. Resist the marketing
Nah! Depends how much disposable cash you have tbh. The marginal performance increase wouldn’t be worth the hassle and cash loss imo
Do you think the prices of M2 machines will go down if they launch M3 ?! I’d better wait then. 😀
Maybe? Not sure if it would be right away, but I have seen some decent deals on the older M1 pros lately, so it would make sense.
Cries in bought first MacBook last Saturday
My 2017 Mac book pro and running slow and the fans are going wild now.it might be time to upgrade lol
Bet its gonna scare the shit out of people wallets
Are M2s on sale now 🤔
I just got a 14inch M1 Pro with 32gb RAM for $1500 (1611 post tax), brand new. I really like it so far.
Interesting thing is that I get close to 50% of RAM utilization pretty often. 16GB of RAM is just plain out silly for a macbook in today’s times.
The price went down $800 in 2 years, in 2 years I can just upgrade to an M3 while my M1 can do everything I really want. I don’t see a reason to get a new M3 when a similarly specced MacBook to mine is going to be around $2400.
Utilization doesn’t matter, unused RAM is wasted RAM and macOS will use all available memory to give the user a snappier performance. Only consider more RAM IF you see red memory pressure graph or experience any hickups and slowdowns in your workflow.
I just ordered a refurbished 16 inch M1 Pro MBP. It arrived yesterday an hour before I saw the announcement of the event. But I’m still glad I got it. Way better than the HP I’ve been using.
i guess there will be an ultra max model announcement ‘scary fast’
I bought an “M1 Air” a month ago. People around me advised to wait till October as release of M3 would mean drop in prices of M2. But then I saw articles saying how M3 wouldn’t release until early next year. Was on a budget otherwise I really wanted that slightly bigger screen and magsafe :3
Will MacBook Air m2 be a little bit cheaper? I want to buy my first one and don’t know if I should wait after the announcement to buy, or is it even worth the wait for Black Friday?
I ordered the 16 inch m1 max 4tb because it was $1,900 discounted. But I made sure I have a 30 day return window for something like this.
bhphotovideo deal for $2799? This is tempting af tbh, you won’t get M3 machined specced anywhere near that for this money.
Any new Intel processor models rumored ?
Just returned my MacBook Air m2 😂
I am pretty sure there will be no new MacBook air’s
