Where to buy 2021 MacBook Pro (M1 Pro/Max) in the UK & US: Best deals
Apple announced major upgrades to the MacBook Pro line up at its 18 October 2021 event. Apple now sells new 14in and 16in MacBook Pros with variants of the M1 chip: the M1 Pro or M1 Max. The laptops are available to buy now from Apple and a number of other retailers, although there are stock shortages.
It’s worth noting these new MacBooks didn’t replace the 13in MacBook Pro models – you can still buy both the 13in MacBook Pro and Air. These newer models are designed for a more professional and demanding market than 2020’s M1 models. Here’s our 16in MacBook Pro (2021) review and the 14in MacBook Pro review. We also compare the 16in and 14in MacBook Pro.
The big problem with these new models has been availability. Stock of the 14in and 16in MacBook Pro has been constrained, most likely an effect of the global component shortages combined with shipping problems related to the COVID-19 pandemic. But there are stockists in the UK and US that have 14in and 16in MacBook Pro to sell – and some of them are even discounting them!
