But upgrading the base models that start at $2,899 for the 14-inch, and $3,399 for the 16-inch, with every premium hardware option that Apple offers pushes those prices to an eye-watering $14,249 and $14,549, respectively.Both of those premium configurations include the M5 Max chip with an 18-core CPU and 40-core GPU, $150 worth of nano-texture glass, 128GB of memory that adds an extra $2,000, and 16TB of storage which is the real budget breaker here thanks to the ongoing memory shortage.Maximizing the configuration of the previous 16-inch version of the MacBook Pro topped out at $10,149, according to MacRumors, but today’s $14,549 price is a result of the 16TB storage option that Apple now offers which adds an extra $7,000 to the new MacBook Pro’s price. If you only upgrade the new 16-inch model to 8TB of storage, a $3,000 option, the fully specced price is $10,549, or $400 more expensive than its predecessor.Follow topics and authors from this story to see more like this in your personalized homepage feed and to receive email updates.Andrew LiszewskiAppleGadgetsLaptopsNewsTech“It doesn’t work.”Richard LawlerTwo hours agoSwiping around on the new touchscreen MacBook Pro.Richard LawlerTwo hours agoThese are the touch settings for the new OLED MacBook Pro.Antonio G.
