What a weird event

 

[Lounge vibes 05]

Still Lightning accessories lol.
The M3 looks like a decent upgrade for anyone still on an Intel machine, but even the M1 still holds its own.
They absolutely refused to compare it to the M2 series, which pretty much says everything.

8gb of ram on the base model 14”. The penny pinching never ends.

They said late November but I just ordered a 16" M3 Max and it says it will deliver on November 7. Glitch?

Looks like Touch Bar is officially dead. 13 inch version is gone from Apple's site.

 

[sza]

M2 pro will be greatly discounted and it’s a good time to buy.

 

[GMShadow]

The M3 Pro and Max now start with 18GB of RAM, which is...what the heck?

Upgrade tiers are 36/48/64/96/128.

 

[Mr. Dee]

If you bought a M2 MacBook Pro 9 months ago, I wouldn't feel too bad, but if you bought one after June, I would feel kinda scammed.

And Magsafe 3 cable

 

[PCorneliusMusic]

Aw, damnit. I just bought a new 14” MBP two weeks ago.

Oh well.

 

[bobcomer]

I wanted an M3 Pro and more RAM in the iMac.

 

[goodcow]

+$400 to go from 8GB to 24GB on the iMac, lol

 

[syklee26]

So Apple really wanted to start at 5pm to go along with Halloween?

 

[GimmeDatApple]

Apple really just told 27 inch iMac users to f*** off. No, the 24 inch screen is NOT a replacement for the 27 inch screen.

 

[ShufromChina]

Question: since we are a few days from the holidays extended return period, if I place order today (and assuming the extended return period starts a few days later), does my purchase still have the extended return window? Thanks.

 

[Tadros]

It’s kinda wild that they had pre orders up the second the event ended. Just ordered my 16 inch MBP!

 

[GimmeDatApple]

8gb of ram on the base model 14”. The penny pinching never ends.

It's $400 cheaper so suck it up and order more RAM.

 

[oofio2461]

This could have been a Press Release, to reduce our expectations, but keep reusing lighting cables apple while you claim that you improved each lineup when you didn't even improve the iPad lineup this year!!!

 

[Anijake]

When will they allow custom builds to be shipped for a store pickup?

 

[madebybela]

WHY

 

[Fuzzball84]

I doubt anyone with M1 or M2 chips will be envious about M3

There’s some nice performance increase and architecture changes to GPU but for the vast majority of users… you won’t be missing out much

And all because Apple silicon is so fast to begin with… M1 is still awesome

No wonder they are happy to leave MacBook Airs on M2… for such bursty workload systems there is no real benefit.

 

[Sasparilla]

I wanted an M3 Pro and more RAM in the iMac.

Was thinking about the iMac....they make it so thin they can't put the bigger chips in it that need serious heat ventilation equipment, so no CPU up-selling for them - that's a bummer.

Glad they kept the colors and they obviously mean to keep it at 24' with the comparisons to 27 Intel iMac's, leaving money on the table there again. Will be getting one next year, but wanted a 27' or larger, oh well.

 

[ccsicecoke]

8GB my ass

 

[Mrkevinfinnerty]

Do the iMac keyboard and mouse still have lightning then?
