The laptop market is in complete shambles, with even Apple introducing a price hike that made its Macs and a multitude of other products more expensive. Fortunately, if you’re still looking for an exceptional discount, Amazon is dropping a bomb of a deal, as Apple’s $2,499 14-inch M5 Pro MacBook Pro is going for $500 off and offers impressive specifications, such as 24GB of unified memory and a 2TB SSD.
The higher-end M5 Pro MacBook Pro configuration features a 15-core CPU and a 16-core GPU
No matter how and from where you look at this deal, the M5 Pro is certainly a force to be reckoned with as the Apple Silicon packs Neural Accelerators in every one of its 16 GPU cores, along with a 16-core Neural Engine for on-device AI workflows. You can run LLMs on this portable Mac thanks to 307GB/s memory bandwidth, with the 2TB SSD operating at PCIe NVMe Gen 5 speeds, making everything snappy and buttery smooth.
The 14-inch display might be small, but it’s a crisp mini-LED panel that delivers up to 1,600 nits of peak brightness, with a 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio. Most importantly, Apple has given the M5 Pro MacBook Pro a high refresh rate display that the company calls ProMotion technology, with support of up to 120Hz. There are also three USB-C Thunderbolt 5 ports that can deliver 120Gb/s throughput, allowing you to hook up a host of peripherals and external monitors to extend your workspace.
Apple proudly claims that the M5 Pro MacBook Pro can last for up to 24 hours on a single charge, with the machine supporting fast charging too. A 12MP Center Stage camera, studio-quality three-mic array, and six-speaker sound system with force-canceling woofers offer an audio package that competitors can’t seem to replicate for whatever reason. As for wireless connectivity, you get Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6 courtesy of Apple’s N1 chip.
Last, but certainly not least, the M5 Pro MacBook Pro packs a build quality that’ll last you for years, with the solid unibody aluminum construction and immaculately tuned hinges ensuring that the portable Mac can withstand tons of wear and tear. While some might refrain from upgrading to this particular configuration as the $2,499 figure might be steep for some, we’ve included other models too that would likely fit in your budget, so make sure to check those out.
