Apple launches 13-inch MacBook Pro with Magic Keyboard, new processor
Apple launched a new version of its 13-inch MacBook Pro with an upgraded keyboard, processor, and storage.
The new laptop has a 1.4GHz, quad-core, 8th generation Intel Core i5 processor, which can be upgraded to a 2.0GHz, quad-core, 10th generation Intel Core i5 processor.
It starts with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. There’s also a version with 16GB or 32GB of RAM, and up to 4TB of SSD storage.
Perhaps the most important new feature is the Magic Keyboard, which replaces the old unreliable butterfly keyboard. Its layout is also different than before, with a physical Escape key and inverse T-shaped arrow keys.
The 13-inch MacBook Pro with Magic Keyboard follows the launch of the 16-inch MacBook Pro with the new keyboard, which has replaced the 15-inch MacBook Pro in the company’s lineup. Despite rumors that the 13-inch MacBook Pro will be similarly replaced by a larger, 14-inch variant, this hasn’t happened — at least not yet.
The new 13-inch MacBook Pro starts at $1,299 and is available for order today over at Apple’s website. The version with Intel’s 10th generation processor starts at $1,799.
