Pretty disappointed catching up on the details here. I'm currently on a 2013 MBP and it is still serving me well, but I think I will look to upgrade in the next year.

XPS and Razer Blade looking much more attractive now. Since cutting loose from Apple Music/iTunes and the iPhone I don't have much reason to stay on MacOS.

 

[Zaph]

USD to GBP is almost 1:1

fucking brexit

 

[Faddy]

Gotta raise those prices because the Macbook is even more professional and even more hip with Beats wearing DJs and freelance photoshop hipsters.

Well people were buying ~$1000 Windows laptops.
Apple needed to differentiate.

 

[see5harp]

Not to mention not a single DJ will ever use that thin strip in their sets when midi controllers with knobs and faders and physical buttons exist.

 

[Benjamin1981]

Those European prices are really something.

 

[Joel Was Right]

The 512GB price is gonna cause a storm.

 

[Vashetti]

Absolutely disgusting.

 

[BluenoseGames]

It STARTS at £1449

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK APPLE?!?

It's insane. I was planning on getting one next year for the start of UNI but can't afford one at that price.

 

[-griffy-]

2TB SSD is +$1400 from the base 15" model.

A maxed out 15" is $4299.

 

[Frustrated_me]

I find the touchbar an odd choice given the number of laptops with touchscreens these days.

Apple is years behind Microsoft on this front, they're stubbornly not including touch into Mac OS, I think they're making a huge mistake.

 

[Gandie]

WTF at the German prices:

1699, 1999, 2199 for the base models.

 

[Zeyphersan]

its up on EPP btw

I know, I'm speeding over there

 

[cheezcake]

$2700 AUSTRALIAN DOLLERYDOOS

I feel guilty for recommending my friend to wait two months for this reveal

 

[jelly]

Soooo, is there going to be a lot more Surface users in the near future?

 

[Zombie James]

$3000 CDN starting price for the 15" model. Insanity.

 

[kingocfs]

Ya'll ain't Pro enough for these prices.

 

[platocplx]

apparently a maxed out 15 inch mbp costs $4,299
wtf.

Unfortunately I know colleagues that will pay this. They are Apple fanatics.

fucking brexit

For once I'm hesitant to blame Brexit here, I think Apple are just nuts :/

This isn't like the iPhone 7 where uk saw price increases but US didn't

 

[collige]

Well, at least they still sell the older model.

 

[see5harp]

A maxed out 15" is $4299.

LOLOLOLOLOLOL. $4299? LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL.

[Auctopus]

Possibly Apple at their most arrogant. One of the least versatile or thoughtfully designed products in their history.

 

[SuperEpicMan]

The cheapest MacBook is now the base model Air at £949. I was half tempted to upgrade mine from a 15 inch to the new 13 inch for a bit more portability, but I think I will keep it lol.

 

[xJavonta]

I'm so fucking pissed off right now. This is disgusting pricing.

 

[The Real Abed]

The 512GB price is gonna cause a storm.

Oh fucking hell. $2000 just for 512?

Even the low end $2399 15" is only 256. You have to add $200 to get 512.

 

[kennah]

Well, at least they still sell the older model.

They don't. And the replacement one is slower.

Get refurbs while you can!

 

[Kito]

The 11" MacBook Air is discontinued

Also, £1750 ($2150) for the touch bar base Pro model ... the fuck.

 

[Jenotron]

Looks like I still hang on to my Mid-2012 rMBP...it's held up well, but I don't know how long it will last me.

I'm in the same boat. I've got a Mid-2012 rMBP and an iMac that are ok for running Premiere and the bulk of my Apps but struggle with Da Vinci Resolve. I was ready to drop money today replacing one or both.

RIP the 11" Air?
Thats my daily driver and it's an awesome piece of kit, my go to computer.

 

[eyeball_kid]

16GB max with no RAM upgrades? For a pro product? What the hell?

 

[Frustrated_me]

LOL Here are the Canadian prices

 

[victreeb3l]

Yeah the price is pretty gross. Guess I'll stick with my current MBP for the next few years. I do like the touch bar though.

 

[SuperEpicMan]

LOLOLOLOLOLOL. $4299? LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL.

or £4049 in the UK.

Thanks brexit.

 

[Ensirius]

Pricing on 13 inch model in Spain.

LOL

 

[SmoothBrain]

1999€ for the base 13" with Touch Bar
2699€ for the base 15" with Touch Bar

I'm out, not enough money for this.

 

[StarVigil]

13 Inch
1.699,00 €
1.999,00 €
2.199,00 €

15 Inch
2.699,00 €
3.199,00 €

 

[Jayayess1190]

The base 13" looks to be using the i5-6360U, which is a 15W cpu, not 28W like normally used.

 

[MrPink93485]

So uh as someone who's been waiting to upgrade his 4 year old computer and has now been priced out of the new line, when do you think retailers start fire-selling the old ones?

 

[grmlin]

This fucking TouchBar and the new keyboard really leave me disappointed.

I really hope they pulled of a David Copperfield, because if the keyboard is anything like the on in the 12" Macbook it's pretty much unacceptable.


Gladly I'm not in a hurry though as I'm very happy with my late 2014. But a workmate with an exhausted first gen Retina 15" Pro is not amused.

 

[EmiPrime]

720p webcam still.

Nice.

 

[collige]

They don't. And the replacement one is slower.

Get refurbs while you can!

They do for the 15" one.

[Benjamin1981]

The 15 inch starts at 2699 Euro.

 

[Fliesen]

... weird position they put themselves into ...

the new models are hella expensive, their product portfolio is far too big, with plenty of overlaps ...

and the macbook air is still the most reasonable package
that new 15" should've been sub $2000, the 13 should've been 1300...

 

[batrush]

Crazy pricing.

 

[SuperEpicMan]

RIP the 11" Air?
Thats my daily driver and it's an awesome piece of kit, my go to computer.

The 13 inch. It doesn't look like you can get the 11 inch anymore.

 

[dc89]

15" Pro with a 1TB SSD is £3239.
That's with a 2GB graphics card. That's daylight robbery.

Want to bump that graphics card to 4GB, that's gonna cost you £3329.
