Hi guys!!

So i wanna buy mbpr 13in this Saturday at apple boutique. The price online for entry level is 5899 and i wanna ask if the price is the same at the boutique? Or is the online price rised a bit because of shipping n tax stuffs? Because if the price at stores is cheaper around 200myr. I wanna buy the 256gb version of 13in mbpr if its cheaper la (online price rm6799 very costly :'/

Thankss

Also if there's any other suggestion dell/asus laptop as powerful as mbpr is a welcome

Apple authorized reseller such as Machines, Harvey Norman, should sell the same as online price. In online store, you can get student discount if you are a student.

Personally if you think about gaming, I'll go for windows. Otherwise if you just want a Mac OS, then go for Mac. I personally prefer Windows because my engineering softwares are mostly Windows based.

Also, there's an Apple Byte forum discussing Macs, this section is mostly Windows laptops.

There are sellers in garage sales selling for way lower prices. Get from them instead.

I see. Im an spm 2015 leaver and currently applying for universities(so i dont have a student id card yet) and yet can i get education discount? If so,what should i bring? My spm slip? Hahahaha

And does the student price also applicable through purchases at physical stores like at Machines or only online?

I use mac mainly for work/study,got a windows 7 laptop good enough for moderate gaming.

Sorry i posted here,because no one replied in the apple byte section :'(

from what I know for education price, you need a college offer letter and student id to proof it (better call apple customer support to get more info)
yet, only buy from apple store website can get education price, reseller like machines, mac city, etc ... don't have at all

Oooo thanks a lot mate! So umm i think i just have to stick with the 128gb ssd of mbpr. No student id card yet. So no education price :/

Again thank you

welcome, but if you not urgent better wait for new version
as the mbp retina display processor is using 5th generation intel processor
I think by this month Apple will announce new macbook with using 6th generation intel processor

Yeah thought about that. But i kinda need it quite soon. Thx for the info,i might wait only if the gpu is upgraded with better graphics like geforce etc and even so thats only for the high end level of mbpr i think.

but I don't think 13" macbook pro retina display can equip the nvidia graphic card
