With an upgrade to 16GB RAM, Apple's M3 14-inch MacBook Pro is $300 off in addition to $50 off AppleCare thanks to an exclusive coupon discount. Units are in stock with free expedited shipping.

Save $300 on this popular M3 MacBook Pro configuration

With a discounted price that's available exclusively to AppleInsider readers, Apple Authorized Reseller Adorama is knocking $300 off Apple's M3 14-inch MacBook Pro. This configuration has a bump up to 16GB unified memory, and it also comes equipped with 512GB SSD storage.

Now $1,499 with the special promo code APINSIDER, this deal provides shoppers with the lowest price available on the Space Gray MacBook with double the amount of memory compared to the standard M3 spec.

Buy for $1,499

The $300 discount is in the form of a $250 instant rebate already in place stacked with the $50 promo code. Step-by-step activation instructions can be found below. The laptop also comes with free expedited shipping within the contiguous U.S.

Grab bonus savings on AppleCare

Protect your purchase with AppleCare, which is discounted too.

Further adding to the savings, the same APINSIDER coupon takes $50 off a 3-year AppleCare Plus extended protection plan, bringing the price down to $229. AppleCare Plus offers coverage for the MacBook Pro, its battery, power adapter and more. Accidental damage protection is also included (each incident is subject to a service fee). The choice is yours whether you want to tack on AppleCare in your cart, but it does offer additional peace of mind to safeguard against out-of-warranty repairs.

Every other Mac is eligible for a coupon discount too

If you prefer Apple's M3 Pro or M3 Max chip, every other MacBook Pro configuration is eligible for exclusive savings with the same APINSIDER discount code -- as well as MacBook Air, Mac mini and iMac models.
