13” M2 8GB/256GB at $829.99? This has to be the absolute worst deal on a MacBook ever.
Save yourself some money and get the M1 at the everyday price of $649 at Walmart, or one of the many M3/M4 16GB options at all the online vendors for less than this $829 planned obsolescence 8GB mistake!
Ditto. This price is way overpriced.
The product is a MacBook Pro. The one you are talking about available at Walmart is a MacBook Air which is a totally different model.
Best Buy has a similar model, this one is 10 core, but open fair condition for $695.99. https://www.bestbuy.com/product/apple-macbook-pro-13-3-laptop-m2-chip-8gb-memory-256gb-ssd-space-gray/6509652/openbox?condition=0&sb_share_source=PDP
Alternatively, the M4 13” MacBook Air can often be had new for $850 and it also has 16GB RAM and TB4 ports, at the expense of a few other ports and an inferior built-in display.
The “Pro” moniker is a misnomer when we’re talking about 8GB RAM here and single monitor support! The 13in “Pro” doesn’t even have SDXC or HDMI ports, it’s literally worse in every possible way than the M4 MacBook Air, which now starts at 16GB, supports dual external monitors, and retails at BestBuy at $849 brand-new with full standard warranty from Apple.
Literally the only difference of this “Pro” and the brand-new full-warranty M1 at $649 everyday at Walmart, is the touchbar, which was such a useless feature that Apple has completely discontinued from all products now.
