There's no telling when this deal could expire, so get it while you can. By comparison, the new 14-inch MacBook Pro M2 Pro scored a record-breaking 14,965 on the same test. It also runs circles around the best Windows laptops, defeating notebooks like the Asus Zenbook 13 OLED (6,411) and Dell XPS 13 OLED (5,420) in the same performance test. This is well above the M1 MacBook Pro's 7,571 score on Geekbench 5.3. On Geekbench 5.4, which measures overall performance, the MacBook Pro 2022 scored 8,911 on the multicore portion of the test.
Although the new processor isn't as powerful as the M1 Pro or M1 Max chip, it's still a huge improvement over the original M1 chip. In our MacBook Pro 13" M2 (2022) review, we called Apple's 13-inch laptop the most powerful baseline 13-inch MacBook Pro Apple has ever released. The whole situation has made me want to do something completely different, like give an iPad Pro a try as my main computer.Yes, we'd all love to own Apple's M2 Pro-touting MacBook Pro, but unless you're a creative pro, you're better off with the cheaper 13-inch MacBook Pro, which still delivers amazing power for the price. I've noticed the growing cult of high-end 2015-ish MacBook Pros with the old keyboards and SD card readers and such. When I started working at The Outline, I was offered a choice of a new MacBook Pro or a MacBook Air for my work computer, and I chose the MacBook Air, with its good keyboard that doesn't break from dust. This old MacBook Pro is still fine, and most importantly, all the keyboard keys work. Enjoy a feather-light notebook, sharp graphics, and a more powerful than ever processor in an Apple Macbook Pro. I still had my 2013 MacBook Pro around, so I sold my 2016 MacBook Pro back to Apple's refurb program, and now I just use the 2013 as my laptop (I used the recovered money to build a PC, lord help me). And on top of that, you're paying a very expensive premium out the door to get a Touch Bar and to not get any useful ports. The current models' keyboards have severe reliability issues, and are so badly-designed that service and replacement can take hours or days under warranty and cost hundreds of dollars out of it. There's a huge sale on MacBook Pros right now at Best Buy, but Casey Johnston convinced me not to upgrade.
