The MacBook Pro in this deal packs a 1.4 GHz, an 8th Gen Core i5 CPU, 8GB of RAM, and a 256GB SSD. These specs are identical to the base model 2020 MacBook Pro.
In our MacBook Pro review, we liked its great battery life, extremely fast performance, and bright and colorful display. Although we thought the keyboard could be better, we gave it a 4 out of 5-star overall rating.
If you appreciate a stellar picture, the MacBook Pro's 2560 x 1600-pixel Retina Display is among the best. We watched the 4K trailer for The Lion King and could make out individual wisps of fur on Simba's paw as he placed it on the muddy footprint of his father.
