Overview
- Amazon’s 14-inch M5 MacBook Pro with 16GB RAM and a 512GB SSD, which fell to about $1,399 on Friday, is the lowest-priced current Pro and was reported as Space Black only.
- Apple’s certified refurbished store has the same 16GB/512GB model for $1,359, and it includes a one‑year warranty, 14‑day returns, AppleCare eligibility, and the standard charger and cable.
- Deal trackers note the 512GB Pro has been split into a separate Amazon listing and the silver option appears gone, suggesting Apple and retailers are phasing out this SKU and that stock could vanish quickly.
- Across the rest of the lineup, Amazon is taking $150 off nearly every new M5 MacBook Air, with the 13‑inch 16GB/512GB model at a record $949 and 1TB versions in all colors down $150.
- Shoppers should weigh the savings against fixed specs because MacBook RAM and storage cannot be upgraded, and Apple’s move to 1TB base storage on Pro models raises entry prices but can make closeout 512GB units strong short‑term values.
