$300 off/M5 MacBook

While we are still tracking a sizable $500 price drop on this 2TB M5 Pro MacBook Pro, deals on the most affordable end of the M5 lineup have been much harder to come by. Apple’s official refurb store however, is serving up a compelling offer on the most affordable M5 MacBook Pro it still sells with the 16GB/1TB configuration at $300 off the list price.

The official Apple Certified Refurbished Store is offering the 14-inch M5 MacBook Pro with 16GB of RAM and the 1TB SSD down at $1,699 shipped.

This is a regularly $1,999 machine brand new, and you can now land it straight from the source with a proper 1-year Apple warranty at $300 less than that.

For comparison’s sake and to further highlight the point above, Amazon is charging $1,849 for this model in new condition right now. And, it has not sold for any less than that there since the late June price hikes official took hold at official retailers.
