That's $150 off this configuration's <a data-i13n="cpos:5;pos:1" href="https://keepa.com/#!product/1-B0BSHDVBXZ">typical going rate[/url] on Amazon, $200 off Apple's MSRP and the largest discount we've seen to date. B&amp;H's listing says the deal is only scheduled to last through Tuesday. Note that only the Space Gray model is discounted.</p><p><core-commerce id="3c9fb9e944924fd58574d2e633734b8b" data-type="product-list"></core-commerce></p><p>This deal applies to the entry-level 14-inch model, which includes a new M2 Pro chip with a 10-core CPU and 16-core GPU, 16GB of RAM and 512GB of SSD storage. The 14.2-inch Mini-LED display has a resolution of 3,024 x 1,964 and supports refresh rates up to 120Hz for smoother scrolling. There's a 1080p webcam inside an iPhone-style display notch, plus three Thunderbolt 4 USB-C ports, an HDMI 2.1 port, a full-sized SD card slot, a MagSafe connector for charging and a headphone jack.</p><span id="end-legacy-contents"></span><p>We gave the latest 14-inch MacBook Pro a <a data-i13n="cpos:6;pos:1" href="https://www.engadget.com/apple-macbook-pro-14-inch-review-2023-m2-pro-max-140048268.html">review score of 92[/url] back in January. Although that review was based on a higher-power configuration than this discounted model, the general benefits are the same here. The new MacBook Pro is essentially just a speed bump, but it remains a fast and sturdily-built notebook for power users. Its display is still superb, its keyboard and trackpad are still comfortable, its speakers are still top-notch and its battery life can still genuinely last beyond a full work day. On the flip side, the whole thing is still expensive (even with this discount) and hardly upgradeable, but that's a familiar story for Macs. This entry-level model also comes with a 67W charger, while the more expensive configurations include a faster 96W adapter in the box.</p><p>The one major upgrade here is the new chip. To be clear, this variant of the M2 Pro isn't worth the upgrade for most owners of the <a data-i13n="cpos:7;pos:1" href="https://www.engadget.com/mac-book-pro-14-16-inch-review-2021-apple-mighty-macs-130011975.html">prior MacBook Pro[/url], and its graphics performance is still clearly behind the M2 Max chip available in the pricier Pro models. Because of the way its NAND chips are configured, this entry-level model's storage performance is <a data-i13n="cpos:8;pos:1" href="https://9to5mac.com/2023/01/24/macbook-pro-ssd-performance-drop/">technically slower[/url] than the last entry-level 14-inch Pro as well.&nbsp;</p><p>That said, this is still a powerful notebook. Any storage drop-off isn't likely to be noticeable the vast majority of the time, and the CPU and GPU performance here is still a nice jump for most looking to upgrade from an older Intel-based Pro.
