Anyone watching the stream? Did I just hear that right? New MacBook 14in Pro is no longer $1999 but now $1699😳!! I was thinking about buying my second pro, and now it’s a 100% yes. Definitely worth the difference in price over the air. Let’s see what Black Friday deals or eduction pricing offer!
EDIT: $1599! 🤯🤯
Only Apple can increase the price of the MacBook Pro 13 inch and tell people it’s actually a price cut.
8GB is a joke
$1499 with education pricing
How can a computer thats called “Pro” only have 8GB of ram. Why would you want a Pro model if only 8GB of ram? You should be looking at the Macbook Air if you don’t need much ram.
Yeah…. My M1 Pro 14” is fine, has a pro chip too and twice the starting ram, I’ll be fine.
Originally when I saw it on screen I was impressed until they didn’t give it the Pro chip and halved the ram.
Yeah but with 8GB RAM… they’re being ridiculous at this point with a $1599 machine. Could’ve equipped it with at least 12GB…
$1599 is a good price, but 8GB of ram is a joke in almost 2024 and the fact that it only gets M3 is absurd. It’s an extra $400 just to get the M3 Pro chip 😐
No it makes sense. It means they’re eliminating the 13” abomination. I agree 8GB isn’t enough for most but many really only want the Pro for the display. This gives them an option. Bump it to 16GB and it’s still only $1,799.
If display is what they want then why not M2 15” Air for around 1000?
M3 pro chip AND extra ram.
What a horrible disappointment. 8GB of RAM. I guess I will be buying a used laptop. Apple is not getting my money.
It’s not much, but with the performance of a Mac, I think it might work just fine for an average person.
But with 8GB instead of 16GB. Still a bit cheaper but grossly mis-advertised.
I was surprised as well, apparently that’s for 8GB ram; in a pro model, in (almost) 2024…
Isn’t student pricing just like $100 less? That’s literally not a discount
$1599 for 8gb you can take it up to 16gb for $200, although Apple sells the 14" M2 Pro with 16gb refurbished for $1599 now, which is better because it can support 2 displays, rather than the 1 display the M3 can. And making the black color require the M3 Pro is just typical.
