+Frank B. Subscriber² Posted May 19, 2015 Subscriber² Share Posted May 19, 2015 Apple Releases New 15-Inch MacBook Pro With Force Touch and $1,999 27-Inch iMac With Retina Display Following a rumor yesterday that Apple would release new updated versions of the 15-inch MacBook Pro and 27-inch iMac, today the company updated its storefront with new models of the computers. The new 15-inch MacBook Pro gained all the expected updates similar to its 13-inch sibling: a Force Touch trackpad, faster flash storage, longer battery life, and better graphics. The MacBook comes in two configurations of 2.2GHz and 2.5GHz for $1,999 and $2,499, respectively. The iMac line that received an update today was not in fact the non-Retina version but a new $1,999 configuration of the 27-inch iMac with Retina 5K display. Both the 15-inch MacBook Pro and 27-inch iMac are available to purchase right now from Apple's online store. Source: Mac Rumours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adrynalyne Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 They should have waited for the new processors to be available. This is rather underwhelming. IceBreakerG 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Prodigy1982 Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 For both the 15 inch MacBook Pro and the 27 inch iMac 5K, the prizes went up a little... and for the MacBook the hardware differences are clear. But what upgrades did that iMac get? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is rather underwhelming. Agreed - I suppose it's just a stop-gap to get the new trackpad into the 15" line. I find the new pricing a little odd. Here in the UK the 5K iMac has dropped in price (I believe) and the MBP has stayed the same, if the dollar is to blame for EU pricing I'd have expected it to affect us here in the UK too.

Prices went up in Canada and a bunch of EU countries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pink Floyd Veteran Posted June 2, 2015 Veteran Share Posted June 2, 2015 Prices went up in Canada and a bunch of EU countries. yes, that is too bad. Can't update my old early MBP 2011 with that higher price in Canada. Wife would kill me for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
