To be honest, we weren’t really expecting much in the way of Cyber Monday deals on the new M3 MacBook Pro models - let’s not forget that they were announced less than a month ago - but competition for your laptop dollar/pound has never been fiercer, which means that retailers are offering discounts left, right and centre.
And the good news is that not even the very latest MacBook Pro has escaped the price-trimming scythe, so if you want a powerful Apple music-making machine that should be good for several years into the future, read on.
Predictably enough, Apple claims that M3 chip can deliver “dramatically increased performance”, thanks in part to the fact that the chips are built using 3-nanometer process technology. For the uninitiated - which is probably most of us - this means that more transistors can be packed into a smaller space, improving speed and efficiency. So now you know.
There’s lots of talk about M3’s new GPU, which offers dynamic caching, mesh shading, and hardware-accelerated ray tracing, while faster performance cores should mean that you can use more tracks, effects and instruments in your DAW projects. The M3 Max offers support for up to 128GB of memory, too, if you’re prepared to pay for it.
The M3 chip comes in three configurations - standard, Pro and Max - and is available in both the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pros. Here are the best deals around right now...
