Glad I got an M1 Max
Deflation is here man. No one has any money. I would expect post-holiday prices to look drastically different than pre-holiday prices in many categories.
Different as in lower after the holidays?
It’s just a little worse than the educational discount. That’s how they get yah.
So different than come Spring time, expect Apple to make a cheaper MacBook.
Think M1 inside the body of the old Haswell/Broadwell-era MacBook Air.
Don’t you get a $200 gift card buying at Apple though?
Got mine for $1899 preorder because I already had BB Plus.
Same, I price marched through the chat and they gave me the $100 back through rewards certificates
For everyone saying these prices are good. Are all those low storage, low ram, low core models? Prices on anything above 1tb Storage & 16 ain’t that still 2,499-3k$?
That config is equivalent to $2350 in my country 😬😅. Jealous of US pricing. 😂
Yes. The MacBook in the picture is the 14” M3 Pro with no upgrades. Typically $2,000
😂 And my supervisor stay asking why I haven’t switched to Mac yet 😂 I’m looking at for the storage & ram upgrade for my job 2,600$ USD or 403,596$ JMD before shipping 😂
Is there going to be a black friday sale on macs?
It’s still $2,900 here.
After the M1 was released I really wanted an M1 Macbook, but each gen seems a little worse than the previous one?
Starting with reducing SSD speed, now the M3 being slower for some tasks than the M2 and also base ram still being 8gb.
I’ll just stay in windows for a while, or maybe move to linux since everything I use now works on linux anyway.
It seems Apple is shifting the priorities for the M3 line. M1 and M2 focused on performance, M3 focuses on efficiently at the sacrifice of removing performance cores.
A MacBook Pro in 2023 that doesn’t support USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 (yes, it has USB4, but not the most common high-performance SSD spec, 3.2 Gen 2x2)… and a base spec that can’t support two external displays.
I’m shocked, simply shocked it’s already being discounted.
Amazon currently has it for $1799
Don’t forget the ram bandwidth. M3 is a worse than m2
In Greece the cheapest available Base m3 Pro is at 2500, with the same amount of money you guys get the m3 Pro we get an M1 Pro base model
I like how you think $50 is a sale
18gb ram?
Buy it from Apples Black Friday deal & get a $200 gift card for a future purchase, this looks like Best Buy used that deal and cashed in on their own
Someone else in this thread mentioned the M3 Macs are not included in the $200 gift card promo
