I missed it, was there a release date??

Shipping today for the base 13" with no touch bar etc, 2-3 weeks for everything else.

They're taking the **** with those UK prices.

£180 for 8GB ram, my god.

LMFAO at those prices!!!!!

Brummies · 27 Oct 2016 at 19:31

Mad prices. Guess I'll wait.

fez · 27 Oct 2016 at 19:31

Wow. Those are some serious prices! For the one I would want to get I would be dropping £1929

Absurd prices. Think I'll pick up a Razor Blade Stealth instead sadly. Although I'm tempted by the Macbook (not Pro) - get a cheeky student discount with Apple!

Edit: Hold up, have they put their Macbook prices up too? Cheeky sods, I'm off to Windows

McBain · 27 Oct 2016 at 19:33

How can they justify that, $1800 is £1500, as above they're taking the ****.

underwhelmed to be honest, ignored rest of line, no updates elsewhere. I think Microsoft owned them yesterday

Can someone list or screenshot the prices for the touchbar versions? The website is showing me the old pro for some reason.

Figured I would cover all bases, ordered a 2015 13rmbp from the refurb store for £849 for delivery to an apple store.

I can get an 8% discount on new ones through work but I imagine with an expected 15% price increase the new base model will be about £200 more.

If that turns out to be true and it's not worth it I can keep the refurb. Or if they reduce the current model so I can get a new one for the same money then I can send the refurb back.

Not sure I can lose.

£849 for a Mac that is now £1249 makes me happy

£1949.00 for the 13 MPB with the fancy touch bar and 512GB SSD. WOW!

danielanthony · 27 Oct 2016 at 19:33

You could spend £5k on a fully loaded 15".

Might wait until the OLED versions come out in 201X.

Deleted member 77746 · 27 Oct 2016 at 19:34

£1,449.00, £1,749.00 and £1,949.00

Illusion · 27 Oct 2016 at 19:34

£1449 for the base non gimmicky touch panel 13". Jesus christ they must be having a laugh

£1749 for the 13, £1949 for the 15.

$200 for the 8GB RAM upgrade = £180 apparently.

Disgusting that is.

squerble · 27 Oct 2016 at 19:34

£2489 with a dual-core i5 + 16GB RAM and 1TB SSD. Bahahahahahahahaa :eek:

$1800 = £1478 + VAT = £1773.6

Raymond Lin · 27 Oct 2016 at 19:36

I can settle for the i5 but I must have that 16G RAM....and I think 512G SSD.

Nitefly · 27 Oct 2016 at 19:37

I think their pricing is too ambitious. I was planning on ordering straight away... now I'm unsure... so anyone who just had a slight interest is going to be put off.

$1800 will include sales tax surely?
