Apple Offloads New MacBook Pro M5, Now Selling Cheaper Than Older M4 Models - Kotaku
"The good news during Black Friday is that the new M5 model with 512GB of storage now costs $1,399, down from $1,599. This makes it cheaper on Amazon compared to the previous M4 generation, which still sells for the full retail price of $1,599. This pricing shift makes the decision to upgrade clear, especially with a $200 saving that rarely happens with current-generation MacBooks."
"The M5 processor has a 10-core CPU and a 10-core GPU and this setup delivers great performance thanks to Apple Silicon's efficiency that rivals that of desktop workstations while fitting into a three-pound laptop. The improved Neural Engine built into each GPU core speeds up machine learning tasks like photo processing, video analysis, and AI features that define Apple Intelligence. This on-device AI processing keeps data local, and maintains privacy by not sending it to cloud servers where third parties could access sensitive information."
The MacBook Pro with the M5 chip launched in late October, replacing the M4 generation with improved neural processing and efficiency. During Black Friday the M5 model with 512GB storage is priced at $1,399, down from $1,599, making it cheaper than the M4 on Amazon and offering a rare $200 saving for a current-generation MacBook. The M5 features a 10-core CPU and 10-core GPU, delivering desktop-class performance in a compact, three-pound laptop. An improved Neural Engine accelerates machine-learning tasks and supports on-device AI for privacy. Sixteen gigabytes of unified memory allows CPU and GPU to share RAM and avoid bottlenecks. The 512GB NVMe SSD provides ample space and high read/write performance for system, apps, and active projects.
