Yes they introduced the MacBook Pro before the MacBook.
- nerdjon 3y agoI did not know that, however that is a bit different since they had the Powerbook. So that's more of a rebranding than a new product. I do realize that the name change came with a switch from PowerPC to Intel.
- dagmx 3y agoEven with the PowerBook, the PowerBook came before the iBook. The Mac (Pro) came before the iMac/Mini etc too The pro moniker is just branding but they usually start with the pro line for more expensive hardware. Even with the iPhone, the current pro line is a continuation of the main line iPhone that evolved via the X.
- chrisandchris 3y agoThey upgraded the MacBook (Pro) to the M3 chip while the Air had to wait (and skip the M2 at all).
- sweetjuly 3y agoI'm not sure what you mean. There's definitely an M2 Air and an M2 Pro.
