If you’ve been holding out for Black Friday to score a deal on a powerful MacBook, you’d be wise to head over to B&H Photo. Today only, the retailer is knocking up to $1,400 off two high-end configurations of the 2017 15-inch MacBook Pro with Touch Bar. This is a bit of a steal considering the power and storage involved, and in both cases these are the best prices we’ve ever seen these models listed for.
The less expensive model boasts 512GB of storage, a 3.1GHz Intel Core i7 processor, 16GB of RAM, and AMD Radeon Pro 560 Graphics. You can get it for just $2,199, down $800 from the usual retail price of $2,999. That’s also down around $450 from the prices you’ll find at competitors.
If you really want to play with power, though, you want to pick up the model with a truly staggering 2TB of storage for just $2,799, down $1,400 from the normal retail price of $4,199. That’s phenomenal. Other than the storage, the specs aren’t any different from the model listed above.
I personally use a 2017 15-inch MacBook Pro, although it doesn’t have the magisterial specs I see in this device. I admire it for the most part, although I find I prefer the 13-inch model for both its portability and smaller palm rests. You can read more of our thoughts on this machine in our full review.
The sale ends today at 11:59 p.m. Eastern time, and as of the time of writing, you only have a little over 10 hours left to buy them at these prices (or at least while supplies last).
