Dont think so. They already prepared for Xmas season. Lots of stock in the shops. In apple store USA, standard specs includes with 2tb 32gb ram. Can buy immediately from shop.

what brand is it and how much boss ? i tried to browse and seems like malaysia do not have many option to choose. juz upgraded so better ask before regret on purchase

Due to urgent use I had get US set from 3rd party seller with top spec.

Great thin bezels. Keyboard ok, compared to butterfly I still prefer this which is old style.

Damn... I bought mine then only watch this video.

Luckily, I got it cheaper than usual.

Nice. Apple family and friends discount?

Yup, brother is Apple employee.

woah, they even offer it for latest product? how many % they are entitle for?
heard from my wife its 15% or so

I previously own a MacBook Pro 15 inch 2016 version. I used the laptop for 2 years+ and went through multiple repairs due to the faulty keyboard. At the end Apple gave me a full refund of the amount I paid this year and I waited for a refresh.

Saw them released this 16inch and immediately ordered one.
What a big upgrade (for the same price I paid three years ago!)
I got twice the amount of Ram, twice the core count (8 core) and twice the graphical power.

I have not benchmarked this laptop because I had been using my iPad as my main computer (and stopped coding and editing photos for some time) but what I immediately noticed is how much better this keyboard felt compared to the old keyboard.
The improvements in speakers are noticeable, but not "groundbreaking" compared to the previous 15 inch. This is definitely the best laptop speakers for now and anyone who came from a laptop other than the 2016 -2019 series MacBook will be pleasantly surprised with the audio quality.

Sidecar is extremely fluid when paired with my iPad. I could draw with the Apple Pencil on Photoshop with pressure sensitivity when using sidecar! (No more reason for me to get an external monitor)

I felt like this iteration is the laptop apple should have released in 2016. It's not groundbreaking or anything, but it felt more like a fix for their mistakes in the past.

Also, I got apple care+ from elsewhere because it covers accidental damage too (would recommend getting that instead of the one in Malaysia)

This is the specs of my thicc boi:

Yes, all product for 25% discount.

Wut. cipek 25%. damn good discount there

Yes... every year can sell and top up a bit to get new model.

25% that's great!

Did you get your 2016 Macbook from Malaysia or oversea? Which service center did you go to?



Worldwide or just Malaysia? Mind to share more details with me about that?

Online... buy from the apple's webpage of the country to ship to.

can help to buy 1 more

Google Apple Employee discount and came upon this.
--------------------------------
As an employee you get 25% of discount on the FIRST unit of any product you buy, so you can buy one of each Apple product line (iPhone, iPad, MacBook…) after that you have a family and friends discount, which allows you to buy up to 10 units with 15% of discount.

Yes, the quota renew each year. Each product can get 25% for 1 unit per year... after that will be 15%.

Can ask your brother when Apple Pay is coming to Malaysia??? And an official Apple store?

I went to Seremban service centre to fix my old laptop

Just updating after a few weeks with my new 16 inch. All good for now. Battery life not that great. Speakers wonderful. Keyboard, similar to my old pre-touchbar 13 inch. No complaints other than extra weight and size when carrying it around.
