Why we like it
There are a lot of different MacBook models with varying specs available during the Best Buy Tech Fest, so what makes this one the best? The Apple MacBook Pro with M3 chip is a powerhouse of a laptop. With 18GB RAM and 512GB SSD to boot, it's the laptop of creatives who are designing and editing daily, especially with its battery life that lasts over 16 hours.
In her review, Mashable Tech Editor Kimberly Gedeon noted that compared to the MacBook Air with M2 chip, the M3 MacBook Pro had an 18% increase in performance with its ultra-fast chip. To get the M3 chip, you don't necessarily have to splurge on the MacBook Pro anymore as the Air models now come loaded with the same processor. However, MacBook Pros are better for professionals in graphic design or video editing with their increased RAM and storage.
Plus, to maximize your MacBook savings, the Apple MacBook Pro, 14-inch (M3, 18GB RAM, 512GB SSD) is the best value. Normally, $1,999, it's down to $1,499 knocking $500 of the price for 25% savings. That's the best deal among all the MacBooks currently on sale at Best Buy.
