Apple’s Latest Tech Ventures in Malaysia In a major announcement from Kuala Lumpur on October 31st, Apple heralded the arrival of its updated line of MacBook Pro 14, 16, and the 24-inch iMac for the year 2023. The buzz? These are powered by the innovative third-generation Apple M3 Series chip.
Powerful Performance Meets Sleek Design
Continuing their legacy of integrating power with aesthetics, the new MacBook line retains a design similar to its predecessors. However, what lies beneath is the state-of-the-art M3 Series chip, touted for enhanced CPU, GPU performance, and efficient power consumption.

A Price Tag to Match the Upgrades Although bearing resemblances in design to the previous iterations, the latest M3-enabled MacBook Pro 14 and 16 come with a heftier price tag, reflecting the advanced tech they house within.
Versatility in Configuration Choices Offering a palette of choices, the MacBook Pro 14 & 16 are available with the new Apple M3, M3 Pro, or M3 Max chips, each with different CPU and GPU configurations. Apple aficionados can opt for up to 128GB of Unified Memory in certain configurations and enjoy an impressive internal storage capacity of up to 8TB.
How Deep Do Your Pockets Go?
For tech enthusiasts who wish to harness the full power and features of the MacBook Pro 14 and 16, be prepared to part with RM 29,599 for the 14-inch model, equipped with a 16-core CPU, 40-core GPU M3 Max chip, 128GB unified memory, and a whopping 8TB of SSD storage. The 16-inch variant, offering similar specifications, is priced at RM 30,799. Interestingly, this marks a RM 1,200 price distinction between the two models with identical configurations.
Awaiting the Apple Wave in Malaysia Currently, Malaysians have to wait a tad longer as the new M3-powered MacBook Pro remains unavailable for pre-orders. However, countries included in Apple’s first launch wave can place their orders immediately, with the promise of these cutting-edge devices gracing Apple Store shelves by November 7th.
