M2 MacBook Pro available to order beginning June 17

Apple has announced that its new M2 13-inch MacBook Pro, featuring a faster 8-core CPU and 10-core GPU will be available to order this Friday on June 17 at 5 a.m. Pacific Time.
Announced at WWDC last week alongside the next-generation macOS update – macOS Ventura, the new 13-inch MacBook Pro with M2 is a relatively minor update compared to Apple’s new M2 MacBook Air. Unlike the new 2022 MacBook Air, the 13-inch MacBook Pro with M2 lacks any major design changes, MagSafe charging, new color options or notable new features.
“We’re so excited to bring our new M2 chip to the world’s two most popular laptops — the MacBook Air and 13-inch MacBook Pro,” said Greg Joswiak, Apple’s Senior Vice President of Worldwide Marketing in a press release shared online. “M2 also comes to the 13-inch MacBook Pro, featuring incredible performance, ProRes acceleration, up to 24GB of memory, and up to 20 hours of battery life — making our most portable pro notebook even better.”
The machine is priced at $1,299 (US) and $1,199 (US) for education. Availability for the new machine will begin next week on Friday, June 24.
