Apple has released the long-awaited new laptop. The old 15-inch model has been replaced by a modern 16-inch beast with top-tier specs. The device's size has barely changed: the display has become noticeably larger, but the bezels have shrunk.

The device's specifications are impressive. The base configuration comes with 16 GB of RAM (DDR4, 2666 MHz) and a 512GB SSD. It also features:
- 6-core Intel Core i7 processor of the 9th generation with Turbo Boost acceleration up to 4.5 GHz;
- AMD Radeon Pro 5300M graphics with 4 GB memory;
- 16" Retina display with True Tone;
- Touch ID and Touch Bar;
- four Thunderbolt 3 ports;
- up to 11 hours of battery life on a single charge.
Long-time Mac users were especially pleased with the return of a normal keyboard. Instead of the "butterfly", it now has a much more convenient, pleasant, and most importantly, reliable Magic Keyboard with special fiberglass reinforcement for the keys.
Prices for Apple equipment in Russia have traditionally been among the highest in the world. The new MacBook is sold on the official Apple.ru website starting at 199 990 rubles. That's $3120 at the current exchange rate.
And the lowest prices for Apple equipment are found directly in the USA. Let's check: the same device, on the same website, only in the .com section costs $2399. That's 154 thousand rubles. Savings: 46 thousand rubles. For a more expensive version with a 1 TB SSD and 8-core processor, the savings are even greater, around 54 thousand rubles.
Delivery of Apple MacBook from USA to Russia
Buying gadgets on Apple.com from Russia is inconvenient; the company often rejects orders (meaning it rejects them completely, and it's terribly annoying to us as well). It benefits from people buying goods at triple the price on the Russian version of the site. But there's a simple solution: buy on Amazon. There the goods are sold directly by Apple, and Amazon has had a partnership with them since last year. Prices for the world's best laptop there are now exactly the same, $2399. Amazon happily sells goods to customers from Russia; moreover, it offers free fast shipping within the USA to the warehouses of package forwarders that reship goods to Russia.
The easiest way to then deliver the gadget from America to Russia is with Pochtoy.com – from $12, in 4-8 days. The fastest and most affordable option. Parcels can be insured if needed. Even so, you save tens of thousands of rubles.
Due to huge demand, the item on Amazon regularly sells out, but new batches arrive every few hours. You can still add it to the cart anyway; your order will simply be processed a day or two later.
