Longtime Mac users were especially happy to see the return of a normal keyboard. Instead of the "butterfly," this one has the much more comfortable, pleasant, and most importantly reliable Magic Keyboard, with special fiberglass to reinforce the keys.
In Russia, prices for Apple equipment are traditionally the highest in the world. So the new MacBook is sold on the official Apple.ru website for at least 199 990 rubles. That's $3120 at the current exchange rate.
And the lowest prices for Apple equipment are directly in the US. Let's take a look: the same device, on the same website, only in the ".com" section, costs $2399. That's 154 thousand rubles. The savings are 46 thousand rubles. For the more expensive version, with a 1 TB SSD and an 8-core processor, the savings are even greater, about 54 thousand rubles.
Shipping Apple MacBook from the USA to Russia
Buying gadgets on Apple.com from Russia is inconvenient, the company often does not accept orders (that is, absolutely does not accept them, and this is terribly annoying for us too). It benefits them for products to be bought at three times the price on the Russian version of the site. But there is a simple way out: buy on Amazon. There the products are sold directly by Apple, Amazon has had a partnership with them since last year. Prices for the best laptop in the world there are now exactly the same, $2399. Amazon is happy to sell products to buyers from Russia, moreover: it has free fast shipping across the USA to the warehouses of mail forwarders, which ship products to the Russian Federation.
The easiest way to then deliver a gadget from America to Russia is with Pochtoy.com – from $12, in 4-8 days. The fastest and most affordable option. Parcels are insured if necessary. Even this way, the savings amount to tens of thousands of rubles.
Because of crazy demand, the product on Amazon regularly sells out, but new batches arrive every few hours. And you can buy through the cart in any case, your order will just be processed a day or two later.
