Along with the new 12-inch MacBook, Apple Store PH now carries the refreshed MacBook Airs and the new MacBook Pro with a Force Touch trackpad.
The MacBook Air models have upgraded internals, if you would notice that they now carry 5th Gen Intel Core i5 CPUs. The MacBook Pro 13-inch with Retina Display however now comes with Apple’s new Force Touch trackpad which senses pressure and no longer clicks physically (aside from the internal spec bump).
The new MacBooks retain their prices from the previous models (base configuration price):
- 11-inch MacBook Air – Php44,990
- 13-inch MacBook Air – Php49,990
- 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina Display – Php64,990
The 15-inch Retina MacBook Pro did not receive any updates, just in case you were wondering, so there is little to no reason to upgrade if you already have one.
Just kidding:
Hmmm… Force touch? What’s next — Force choke?
Apple really went to the Dark Side…
Also, I have to be the Jedi to do Force touch…
