Time to upgrade your MacBook? Apple unveils stunning laptops at cheaper price

If your MacBook feels in dire need of an upgrade now could be a good time to head to your local Apple Store. The US technology firm has just unleashed a swathe of rebooted laptops and all of them now pack some impressive M3 silicon under their aluminium shells.

This new range of chips looks set to take performance up a notch with Apple promising that all of its new laptops will be faster than previous models.

When they arrive in stores next week there will be numerous options to choose from including 14 and 16-inch screen sizes along with different levels of processing power.

Owners will be able to pick from a standard M3 chipset or upgrade to the faster M3 Pro or Ultimate M3 Max versions.

To make things even more enticing, anyone opting for the entry-level 14-inch M3 laptop will be able to pop this machine in their online shopping basket for £1,699 - that's around £400 cheaper than before.

As well as being faster and cheaper to own, there's also a new colour to choose from with Apple launching these devices in a Space Black shade.

That's something that's never been available before and will certainly please those wanting a Batman-style PC on their laps.

There are all the usual features you'd expect including Liquid Retina XDR displays, built-in 1080p cameras, impressive speakers, MagSafe charging and plenty of ports for your accessories.

“There is nothing quite like MacBook Pro. With the remarkable power-efficient performance of Apple silicon, up to 22 hours of battery life, a stunning Liquid Retina XDR display, and advanced connectivity, MacBook Pro empowers users to do their life’s best work,” said John Ternus, Apple’s senior vice president of Hardware Engineering.

“With the next generation of M3 chips, we’re raising the bar yet again for what a pro laptop can do. We’re excited to bring MacBook Pro and its best-in-class capabilities to the broadest set of users yet, and for those upgrading from an Intel-based MacBook Pro, it’s a game-changing experience in every way.”

If you fancy treating yourself, the new MacBook M3 Pros will arrive in stores from November 7.

Apple's event wasn't just about laptops. The US firm also unveiled a refreshed iMac which also gets that latest M3 chip tucked inside.

This all-in-one PC will be available from next week with prices starting from £1,399.
