It also permanently upgraded the M5 MacBook Pro lineup, nixing the 512GB storage tier in favor of a new base model with 16GB of RAM and 1TB of storage \u2013 Amazon now has this model at <strong>$100 off<\/strong> the new list price too.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"more-1197825\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Amazon is now offering the M5 MacBook Pro with 16GB of RAM and the new 1TB base storage tier down at <strong>$1,599 shipped<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This configuration first launched last year at $1,799 and is now $200 less than that.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>However, with the new base storage tier, this configuration actually carries a $1,699 list price now \u2013 while this new starter config is $100 more than the old 512GB, it is effectively less pricey than it was a week ago.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>We did catch the 16GB\/1TB M5 MacBook Pro at $50 less as part of the Black Friday festivities, but now that Apple has shuffled the lineup, those historical prices are far less telling or relevant at this point. We might very well see this same machine back down at $1,549 at some point throughout the year, but at this point you\u2019re looking at the lowest price on the most affordable MacBook Pro Apple sells \u2013 you can still buy the 512GB model elsewhere though, and it is starting at <strong>$1,549<\/strong> on Amazon right now.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/9to5toys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/03\/Best-MacBook-2026-preorder-deals-Neo-M5-Pro.jpg?quality=82&#038;strip=all&#038;w=1600\" alt=\"\"\/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/9to5toys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/03\/Best-M5-MacBook-Air-deals-preorders-2026.jpg?quality=82&#038;strip=all&#038;w=1600\" alt=\"\"\/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/9to5toys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/03\/Best-M5-Pro-MacBook-Pro-deals-preorder-2026.jpg?quality=82&#038;strip=all&#038;w=1600\" alt=\"\"\/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/9to5toys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/03\/Best-M5-MacBook-Air-deals-preorders-2026.jpg?quality=82&#038;strip=all&#038;w=1600\" alt=\"\"\/><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-m4-macbook-pro-features\">M4 MacBook Pro features:<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>SUPERCHARGED BY M5 \u2014 The 14-inch MacBook Pro with M5 brings next-generation speed and powerful on-device AI to personal, professional, and creative tasks.
