Apple refreshes its MacBook Pro Line up

Apple recently updated its MacBook Pro line up with new Haswell processors, increased RAM and reduced prices on its high end models confirming the leaks that surfaced earlier. 

After this upgrade the base model of the 13-inch MacBook Pro comes with 8GB of RAM, up from 4GB. Also the new Haswell Core i5 chips increased the CPU speed to 2.6GHz from 2.4GHz. but the biggest difference is that this comes without any change in price. Earlier Apple used to offer its 128GB PCIe-flash storage model at a price of `94,900 which remains the same for the upgraded version. 

Additionally the 13-inch model comes with processers clocking at 2.8GHZ with a turbo boost to 3.3GHz, up from the earlier models. Also they can be configured with Core i7 chips to 3.0GHz and turbo boost to 3.5GHz. 

The higher variant i.e. 15-inch model sees the biggest change with a reduced price of $100 on these models. The base model of 15-inch MacBook Pro is now available at `144,900. Also these run on a faster Core i7 processor clocked at 2.5GHz with turbo boost to 3.7GHz and double the RAM at 16GB from an earlier of 8GB. 

Like the new 13-inch model, these can be configured to run at a higher clock speed of 2.8GHz with turbo boost to 4.0GHz. 

These new MacBook Pro are available at Authorized Apple resellers across the country.
