Apple ’s new , most powerfuliMac Prois finally available for sales agreement , and while some may mean its $ 5,000 starting Mary Leontyne Price is a mo steep , it ’s the all spear carrier that will really get you . That ’s because when in full loaded with an 18 - core Intel Xeon CPU ( which wo n’t even ship until next year ) , 128 GB of error - checking memory , and a 4 TB SSD , you ’re looking at a entire monetary value of $ 13,199 .
For comparing ’s interest , a brand Modern Smart Coupe starts at $ 14,650 , while a Honda Fit will run you slightly more at $ 16,190 , and that ’s before you figure in any oddment - of - year discounts monger are slinging around right about now .
That ’s not all . If you want an extra matchingspace gray Magic Mouse 2 and a Magic Trackpad 2 , that ’ll be you another $ 149 . And if you are n’t sure , keep in thinker you wo n’t be able to circle back later and buy your matching peripheral , as Apple ’s online configurator notes : “ Space Gray accessories are usable only at the fourth dimension of your iMac Pro leverage . ”
Other optional supernumerary include a $ 79 space Gy VESA mounting kit , and pre - installed versions of Final Cut Pro X and Logic Pro X for $ 300 and $ 200 , respectively . Thankfully , Apple ’s first black USB - to - Lighting cord fall bundled with the iMac Pro for free .
As ridiculous as these price might seem , it appear that the iMac Pro ’s $ 5,000 base configuration might not be that overprice . Based on a few compare to roughly equivalent Windows systems , the folks over atApple Insiderfound that many iMac Pro competitors often costed slightly more than Apple ’s new high - end all - in - one , but they were n’t that far off . When it comes to the higher - specced modeling , however , spending over 10 M on a novel computer just does n’t seem like a good deal for most people .
I guess price like these are how Apple made$1,444.76 per secondly in 2017 .
