Killer Deal: Apple's 15" MacBook Pro (2.5GHz, 16GB, 512GB, 750M) for $1,799 ($700 off)

Last updated

Back for a limited time, readers can grab Apple's 15-inch MacBook Pro (2.5GHz, 16GB, 512GB, 750M) model MGXC2LL/A for $1,799.00 ($700 discount) or $2,009.99 ($838 discount) with AppleCare.

This MacBook Pro, introduced less than a year and a half ago for $2,499.00, is strikingly similar to the model that replaced it just earlier this year at the same price point. The only material differences being the presence of a ForceTouch Trackpad, slightly faster internal flash memory, and a AMD Radeon R9 M370X graphics card instead of a NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M on the 2015 models.

Apple Authorized Reseller Adorama has renewed a killer deal that knocks the price down by $700 from its original price to an industry-low $1,799.00. It's also offering this same model with AppleCare included for just $2,009.99 ($838 off) when using the links in this article (or our Price Guides) and then combining promo code APINSIDER with this $50 AppleCare rebate. Both include free shipping and Adorama also does not collect sales tax on orders shipped outside NY & NJ. Step-by-step instructions for securing both of these deals are below.

Update: B&H Photo has matched Adorama's $1,799 price with free shipping and no sales tax outside of NY.

Rebate FAQs

The $50 Rebate is issued as a pre-paid $50 American Express car that can be used to make purchases anywhere a credit card can be used. It cannot be used at an ATM to redeem cash. The average lead time from when you submit your rebate application to when you'll receive your card is approximately 6 weeks. The card comes with a $50 value and you should attempt to use it in full before the end of the 4th month. After that, a maintenance fee of $2/month will automatically begin to reduce the value of your card. Best advice: use it as soon as you receive it on groceries, staples and other routine/common purchases.
