Maxed-out touchscreen MacBook Pro tops $14,500 with a new 16TB SSD option, MacRumors reports
A fully loaded version of Apple's new touchscreen MacBook Pro now costs more than $14,000, according to MacRumors, which tallied the configuration prices on Apple's online store after pre-orders opened on October 28.
MacRumors reports that the maximum 14-inch model comes to $14,249, while the 16-inch tops out at $14,549. Both use the M5 Max chip with an 18-core CPU and 40-core GPU, 128GB of unified memory, a 16TB SSD and the optional nano-texture glass.
The storage upgrade is the biggest single line item. On the M5 Max models, moving from the standard 2TB drive to 4TB adds $1,000, 8TB adds $3,000, and 16TB adds $7,000. The 16TB tier is new: the previous generation stopped at 8TB.
