Apple’s new M1-powered MacBook Pro 13 is already $ 50 off

Saving money on new Apple products is usually out of the question, but the new 13-inch MacBook Pro with Apple’s powerful M1 silicon is already $ 50 at Amazon. Instead of costing $ 1,299 for the base model with 256GB of storage and 8GB of RAM, you’ll pay $ 1,250. Yes, it’s a small discount, and apparently deliveries currently take between two to five weeks. Saving $ 50 might not be worth the wait long, but this deal is here in case you want to take advantage.

You can also save $ 50 on the upgraded version with 512GB of storage and 16GB of RAM in space gray or silver colors. This normally costs $ 1,499, but you can order now for $ 1,450. There is currently less waiting for deliveries of this model. Amazon says it will take between one and three weeks.

The edge posted a trio of reviews focused on Apple products with the M1 processor. Of course, we have a review of the MacBook Pro in question, as well as the MacBook Air and Mac mini. Every product has exceeded our reviewers’ expectations for performance, and for laptops the battery life is very good. Focusing in particular on the MacBook Pro, Nilay Patel’s review points out that this machine can maintain its high level of performance longer than the Air thanks to its fan (the MacBook Air has a fanless design). It also has a slightly brighter screen than the Air, although it unfortunately still has Apple’s 720p webcam which in Nilay’s words is “miserable” despite some new image processing features to improve the image quality. visual quality.
