Apple earlier increased RAM prices for the 13-inch MacBook Pro a few months ago but that seems to be off now, Amazon has just listed the latest 13-inch MacBook Pro with 512GB of storage (2X that of the base model) for $200 off, bringing the price down to $1,599. That’s an all-time low and the last time it dropped this much was at the end of August for a brief period of time.
The model on sale runs on a 10th-gen Core i5 processor, 16GB of RAM, and that expanded 512GB of storage. You can have the deal by combining default savings with a coupon: the laptop is on sale for $1,649, but there’s a $50 coupon on the product page that will be automatically applied at checkout. It appears the extra $50 coupon is only available for the 512GB model, but the 1TB version is on sale as well for $1,849, which is $150 off its normal price as Engadget reports.
The latest MacBook Pros came out in May and we gave the 13-inch model a score of 87. Apple brought the new Magic Keyboard over to the 13-inch Pro (it was already available on the 16-inch Pro and the MacBook Air), dramatically improving the typing experience. It’s much easier and more comfortable to type on this MacBook Pro thanks to the more traditional scissor-switch keys that have replaced the old butterfly key mechanism.
We also like the bright, colorful Retina display on this laptop and its healthy 11.5-hour battery life. There are some caveats to keep in mind, though. For one, the MacBook Pro has limited port options, including only four Thunderbolt 3 ports. We also still don’t think the TouchBar is necessary and the underside of the laptop can get hot after a while. If you can live with those compromises, this new sale is a great opportunity to upgrade your current laptop situation or invest in the latest MacBook Pro.
