There are plenty of portable Macs to choose from right now, but if the M2 13-inch MacBook Pro tickles your fancy, now is the perfect time to treat yourself. Order today and you can save $200 and you even get to choose which color, too.
Amazon is now selling the 13-inch MacBook Pro for just $1,099, which equals the best price the retailer has ever offered this particular model. It’s also $100 cheaper than you’d get at the Apple Store, even with the academic discount. Being able to choose between space gray and silver is just the icing on the cake — these deals sometimes only apply to one color or the other which, frankly, stinks. Not this time, though!
This particular configuration gets you the gorgeous 13-inch Retina display, as well as the tried and tested chassis and keyboard that continue to be so popular. On the inside, there’s that speedy M2 chip complete with eight GPU cores and 10 GPU cores. That Apple silicon is paired with 8GB of RAM and a fast 256GB solid-state drive.
Other notable features include the Touch Bar, a backlit keyboard and a FaceTime HD camera. Apple says that you can expect around 20 hours of battery life on a full charge and the advanced active cooling system allows the 13-inch MacBook Pro to sustain its impressive performance for hours on end.
In terms of connectivity, buyers can look forward to a pair of Thunderbolt ports on one side and a 3.5mm headphone jack on the other. Those Thunderbolt ports are also how you’ll charge your new laptop via the included USB-C charger.
Yes, this MacBook Pro may well get the eventual M3 CPU upgrade as soon as this fall, but that will certainly cost more and won’t be available ahead of the back-to-school season.
