An exclusive discount is in effect on Apple's 14-inch MacBook Pro M3 with a bump up to 16GB of RAM, now priced at $1,349 with a blowout deal.

Apple isn’t big on discounts, so a $400 Black Friday deal on one of its most stacked laptops caught our eye today. The Apple 2024 MacBook Pro with M4 Max chip is down to $3,099 right now on Amazon — the best price we’ve ever tracked on the powerhouse of a device.

This cheeky 13% Black Friday discount knocks the MacBook Pro M4 down to $1,749, a nice chunk of change from $2,000. This deal is good for all users, provided they want to be part of the iOS and Apple ecosystem—it's the home of digital creativity, after all.

Apple may have said goodbye to the MacBook Pro’s Touch Bar last year, but a team of four engineers believes the concept deserves a second chance. They’ve created the Flexbar, which is essentially a standalone version of the MBP’s thin touchscreen display that can be used with multiple devices and platforms through a USB connection.

This Kickstarter project is bring back the Apple Touch Bar -- but this time it works with a whole range of devices and is at least ten times more customisable.

It's safe to say that the MacBook Pro's Touch Bar is well and truly gone, as it has not been missed with the latest MacBook Pro M4. However, if it's as new and improved as it looks, the Flexbar could make a handy addition that doesn't take away a whole row of keys.
