$500 off moves the needle.

 

[Rychiar]

It’s embarrassing those aren’t the standard prices at this point. How were they selling m1 at m2 prices….

M1 Ultra/64GB RAM/1TB SSD Mac Studio for $3,699.00,


If the PC industry hadn't consolidated and instead kept the same price/performance trajectory 1995-2010, specs like that would be $1000. Maybe even less.

Under Oligopoly, regular people suffer.

At this point I don't really feel like this is much of a discount, M2 Max is $200 more for a 20% gain. Also Costco had the base model M1 Max Studio for $1499 two weeks ago, so this isn't the lowest price...

Best ever? 🤣

Costco had them for less ($1,499.99 and $3,199.99 respectively) 1.5 months ago.

Maybe they don't count because they're not an affiliate partner?

Costco regularly has much better deals that what MR tracks here, FWIW. You can almost always get Airpods Pro for $199 and Studio Display for $1350, for example.

Costco had the $450 just this past weekend, sale ended on the 18th.

It's the best ever where MR can make some referral money for

It'll probably come back in the near future.

Costco Mac deals are AFIK always base models. That does not matter with headphones, etc., but for Macs it likely places a buyer at lower RAM levels than are most appropriate. Beware.

yeah, but it's perfect for those that only need a base model and get a good deal on them.

No one is buying M2, because M3 is just around the corner, hence the discounts

Have you ever heard of inflation and R & D costs?

 

[sigmadog]

I dropped a metaphorical dime on an M1 Max Studio with 64GB Ram, 2TB SSD, and 32-core GPU. Before the update, this would have cost around $3200, but I got it in the Apple Refurb store for $2606. Saved about $600.

Feel pretty good about this purchase, as I'm replacing my 2013 Mac Pro (12-core, 64GB, 1TB) which I bought used for $3000 in 2020. My policy since 2008 is to never, ever pay retail for Apple computers.

 

[BillyBurke]

That sounds like a heck of a deal. Good for you. I, too, am a fan of Apple's Refurb Store.

$1499 at Costco

I'm just going to wait for the Mach 5 (M5)

M3 Studio won’t be till next April.

Not really. I got my daughter a pretty maxed out 14" MBP not too long ago.

I wished it were but it is very unlikely we will see the first M3 Mac Studio this year … maybe spring ‘24 but that would not be “around the corner” 😊

 

[currentinterest]

A recent review reported that the M2 Max performance was equivalent to the M1 ultra performance. There are of course port differences, but $1999 is a big difference from $3699.
