I got a m2 macbook pro 16gb 512gb that is still within the return period(costco) and they just price matched it for 1599. The m3 pro is 1849 at costco and while not much more, I don’t see the real big difference for 300 bucks…if I get to a point that this one is outdated, have a feeling the m3 will be as well.
Also space gray is pretty nice…idk how I feel about space black lol.
Personally, if you don’t need to upgrade, take that money and get AppleCare+. This is my opinion/recommendation. I just dropped my charging adapter in the water by accident and was sent a new one for free.
