Wednesday June 15, 2022. 05:38 AM , from Macworld UK
Apple may have announced during the WWDC keynote that the M2 MacBook Pro wasn’t coming until July, but preorders are opening sooner than that: Apple has announced that the M2 MacBook Pro will be available to order this Friday, June 17. Here’s everything you need to know about the new laptop.

What’s new about the M2 MacBook Pro?

Before talk about how to preorder, let’s review what’s new with the machine. Basically it’s just the processor. Apple hasn’t changed anything about the design or features of the laptop, so if you like the current model with the Touch Bar, this one will just be faster. It doesn’t have MagSafe or a notch, though it will be slightly faster than the MacBook Air in some circustances due to its advanced cooling system.

When will the M2 MacBook Pro go on sale?

The new MacBook Pro will go on sale Friday, June 17, at 5 a.m. PT. (6am MDT, 7am CDT and 8am EDT). In the U.K., sales will kick off at 1 pm, and 10 pm in Sydney Australia.

Apple says the first M2 MacBook Pro models will start shipping on Friday June 24.
