MacBook Pro: Don’t Buy (now)

Here’s some piece of advice. If you’re thinking about switching to a Mac or if you’re a Mac user about to renew your platform pay attention: Macrumors’ buyer’s guide for Mac products indicates that some Apple products are late in update cycle and new updates are expected. The most expensive articles in Apple’s assortement are not the latest, yet.

  • The Mac Pro is in average updated every 236 days: but now it’s got no updates since 342+ days (+45%).
  • The MacBook Pro is 45+ days beyond it’s average updates cycle of 200 days (+23%).
  • Especially the Cinema Displays are since 1041+ days the same – “normally” the’re getting updated every 230 days (+353%).
  • Even iPhone is affected: in common it’s renewed every 178 days but like the MacBook Pro it got since 245+ days no updates (+38%).

All of these four articles got from Macrumors the status “Don’t buy – updates soon.” MacBook Air and Xserve are just close to it’s updates cycle end. So Macrumors says: “Buy only if you need it – Approaching the end of a cycle.” Generally the iPods are just new and may last until summer 2010. iPad of course is not affected.

On top of that Apple’s marketing makes Geekbench.ca release some benchmarks on the new MacBook Pro with Nehalem CPU. It’s way faster than the current ones and got Mac OS X 10.6.2 (Build 10C3067). Maclife.de does not predict a release this Tuesday but may be between 11th and 13th February – at the Macworld in San Francisco. Even if Apple does not take part…

Insiders report that in Apple stores and at resellers stocks of MacBooks are running short and raises are delayed. So we may get new Macs and iPhones within spring 2010. So if you ever plan to buy Apple products make sure you’re up to date and keep watching Macrumors’ buyer’s guide.
