New MacBook Pro and iMac Models Available Today at Apple Stores

[MacRumors]

Apple's latest MacBook, MacBook Pro, and iMac models are now widely available at all but a few of its retail stores across the United States, and customers now have the option to reserve a model for in-store pickup on its website.

Apple began accepting online orders for the new MacBook, MacBook Pro, and iMac models on Monday, but delivery estimates currently range between June 12 and June 22 in the United States, so customers looking to purchase a new Mac earlier than next week may have better luck visiting an Apple Store.

Apple's in-store pickup tool shows the new MacBook, MacBook Pro, and iMac models are also in stock today at select Apple Stores in Canada, but we recommend calling ahead to ensure supplies remain available.

The refreshed MacBook and MacBook Pro feature Intel's seventh-generation Kaby Lake processors, improved Intel and AMD graphics options, and faster SSD storage in 12-inch models, while the new iMac models received the same treatment plus Thunderbolt 3 ports and brighter Retina displays compared to the previous generation.

To get the 2017 MBP 15" or wait for CoffeeLake. That is the question.

you buy now, or wait for CL and DDR5, nothing else matters, so buy now or wait until 2019

Get both. The 2017 now and then sell it when the new one comes out and get that one. I buy a new laptop every year.

The images used on the iMac and MacBook Pro inset photo in the article; are they included with the Mac?

I see, what you did there.

Redesigned MacBooks & iMacs are slated for next year, i.e. 2018.

No Mac mini. Boooooo

So I purchased the higher spec’d 15” MBPtb online with my BarclayCard about 10 minutes after the online store came back up.

My order still shows processing, not even preparing for shipment yet, and it says it may be delivered as late as 6/13.

Can I just stop by a store and have them cancel the online order and take home a MBP today? I’ve checked and they do have them in stock next at the Apple Store a few blocks away.

I think about buying a new computer like buying a new car...at the time when you need, or want, a new car, you get what is available. As with computers, there will be newer models that are likely to be better next year. Yet when next year arrives, the newer ones are on the horizon. It's a paradox. Best to get what you want/need now, car or computer withstanding.

Cannonlake will bring big changes, not Coffeelake.

 

[dan9700]

Ppl stop moaning saying do i wait till next year etc, things will always get better and u could always be waiting for next one so just buy it now and enjoy it, its like saying so i wait and buy the iphone 8 or wait another year for 9 lol more to the point if they haven't fixed the popping sound from screen/hindge and keyboard sticking then ill be angry

Is the RAM in the new 27" iMac still user serviceable via the memory compartment door in the back?

The question should be, do you need now. If so buy, if not, wait.

Yep.

 

[bigjnyc]

I got June 22nd in store pickup on a maxed out BTO 12” macbook

 

[Brookzy]

The choice of base model configurations in the iMacs is completely bizarre in my opinion: there isn't a stock model with more than 8GB of RAM.

I have no problem with them selling models with spinning disks and minimal memory if they are purely to pad out the lower price brackets.

But I couldn't in good conscience sell a customer a £2249 machine with 8 gigs.

Just wait forever. Once you are in a nursing home, you can finally enjoy a computer purchase. It'll be worth it. Wait.

You should be able to do that as long as your order doesn't change to Preparing for Shipment. If you can't cancel the order, you could ship it back or return it to the Apple Store without opening it.

My 2011 model didn't magically stop working when they release another $3000 laptop. $3000 buys a lot of cake in the nursing home.

I'm a bit torn about the current lineup of macbook pro's, have an high end 2012 version and compared todays version, it's about a 30% difference of cpu power.

In regards to coffeelake, am I right in assuming that this will maybe the first mobile CPU with 6 cores, meaning that we could see a 2018 Macbook Pro with 6cores?

Yes

 

[meaning-matters]

To replace my 2012 Retina 15" would be 3799 EUR. I'm still building up courage.

 

[MrGuder]

Nope, my Apple Store says available June 23 for the base model MBP 15" w 512 SSD.

 

[SteveNoJobs]

You can get a DELL XPS 15 with a Quad core i5 and a GTX 1050 for the entry 13" Model... kinda sad
better keep buying those overpriced glued fancy machines

It's a good thing, honestly. RAM is upgradable and way cheaper than what Apple sells it for. Keeps the cost of the machine lower.
