Apple's updated 15" MacBook Pro to start at $1999

Apparently, Apple is trying to deliver to its customers the highest quality products at a rather lower price. Even though the latest Apple releases are based on the most advanced technology, it seems that the famous manufacturer is trying to promote them at a lower starting price, which aims to make the new release more accessible.

The latest updated 15-inch MacBook Pro, which comes with Intel Crystalwell graphics, can now be purchased at the starting price of $1999.

This might turn out being a good deal, having under consideration the improvements and great features that this new device presents to its users. Moreover, the $200 price drop might be seen quite well by fans of Apple products. The refreshed laptop features the latest Intel processor, as well as an extended battery life, which offers enough juice for the device to function for 8 hours.

When it comes to features, the new device includes the already popular Retina display, along with quad-core Intel ivy processor, 256 GB SSD, as well as 8 GB of memory. The device also features Intel Iris Pro graphics, which comes to replace the more discrete GPU.

For this new release, Apple has also worked to add enhanced wireless performance on the device. In fact, the new 15-inch MacBook Pro comes with certain improvements on this aspect, featuring the next- generation 802.11ac Wi-Fi, which according to Apple can even triple the wireless performance of the device.

While focusing its attention on the release of some new devices, Apple decided that it was time to put an end to some older versions of the MacBook, which the company has in sale. So, at the time when the new Apple updated 15" MacBook Pro was released, the company discontinued the non-Retina 15-inch MacBook Pro.

However, Apple decided to keep in its lineup the 13-inch MacBook Pro, the non-Retina model, which actually is the only Apple laptop that is still in sale and which does not feature optical drive and a spinning hard disk. Why did the company opt to still keep this device in sale and discontinue the 15-inch model remains unknown, at least for now.
