$500 off isn’t enough to offset the time, money and frustration you will spend fixing the trash keyboard

The link provided shows $1749 price. So it looks like it’s already gone.

so was this an error or people really love the 2018 model?

Considering the repairs are next day, covered under warranty and as simple as stopping by the Genius Bar, I'll take the $500, thanks.

I have the new MBP and the keyboard is fine for me.

3 years with first model and fine for me. Have not had issues here.

This would be a great secondary machine at home if it had 16GB of RAM and a usable keyboard. I also wish they would put some sort of discrete GPU in the 13" MBP. Other thin laptop makers like Razer do this and Apple charges a ton for a Pro machine with an integrated GPU. I'm not even asking for something powerful, just anything would be a big improvement over an integrated GPU that sucks RAM away from the system.

I think my next portable Mac will be after they switch to ARM chips and hopefully fix the keyboard.

 

[hipnetic]

Need some deals on 13” w/16GB RAM.

 

[QCassidy352]

I probably would have bought this at the $1500. Why have a 1 hour sale or whatever it was?

 

[riptidewahoo]

Best Buy just had the same model for $1399 with student discount a few days ago... so it's not really an all time low. I got one for that price myself.

[Jimmy James]

This is the machine spec I want and I finally have the extra money to buy it.

I’m putting my money where my mouth is and holding firm with my old machine until they resolve real or perceived reliability issues.

 

[jeyf]

most peeps email and surf so anything would work
but
you need a keyboard that works so
NO

 

[jawshoeaw]

Deal is already dead? That was fast.

Flippers and resellers buy all these

Less than half an hour, actually. I'm also confused about that.

 

[Michvuee]

There are better laptops with better specs at lower price.

 

[PickUrPoison]

There are better laptops with better specs at lower price.

But unlike this one, which can also run Windows, those “better laptops” can’t also run macOS. So they’re not better.

I’ve often thought MacRumors needed more slam poetry.

Yep was going to say. Got one myself too. It was $1499 without student discount, $1399 with.

 

[QCassidy352]

There are better laptops with better specs at lower price.

Better specs, no doubt. But I need macOS, and I prefer being able to dual-boot into win10 also. So “better laptop” is in the eye of the beholder.

 

[Ghost31]

Give it time.

I’ve given it time. Even had a 2016 that was fine. Stop acting like it’s a sure thing when it definitely isn’t
