But, MKBHD’s researcher, showed that one of the most expensive Apple products available could be worth almost nothing after a little less than four years since it launched.
Imel tweeted that he “tried pricing out our $52,199 Mac Pro’s at the office for trade-in, which you can still buy from Apple, $52,199.” Apple never pays top dollar for trade-ins, but he – and everybody else – was shocked with how little the company offered for this $50,000+ computer: $970.What’s interesting is that Apple still sells the Mac Pro for the same price MKBHD paid four years ago. And yet it offers less than 2% of that price for a trade-in despite the maxed-out configuration.
So, if you have a maxed-out Mac Pro at home, you should keep using it or sell it to a friend or another store.new MacBook Pro with the M2 Pro and M2 Max chipsAlthough it was expected to feature a redesign, an “Extreme” processor, and user-upgradeable RAM, it seems this Mac Pro will feature the same design, up to the M2 Ultra chip, and two SSD storage slots for graphics, media, and networking cards.
