Apple’s Mac Pro can now be customized with Radeon Pro W5700X Graphic Cards
Persons who were considering getting a Mac Pro now have another reason to get one.
Apple is now allowing customers to add a very powerful Radeon Pro W5700X Graphics Card with 16GB of GDDR6 memory to their machines when using Apple's build-to-order feature, a new option that was just added on Wednesday.
Selecting the Radeon Pro W5700X adds an additional $600 to the price of the Mac Pro. Apple also offering an option to add two Radeon Pro W5700X graphics cards for a total of $1,600. It's also available as a standalone purchase for $1,000.
Apple’s powerful $399.00 iPhone SE appeals to budget-conscious buyer
The lower-cost model could also attract more consumers to Apple services, a growing driver of revenue.
The iPhone SE will start at $50 less than what was previously the cheapest iPhone available, the iPhone 8, which will be retired. The SE comes with a 4.7-inch display and the same processor chip as Apple’s most advanced phone, the 11 Pro.
The announcement comes as the United States and much of the world is reeling from the novel coronavirus, although U.S. political leaders have begun to talk about ending stay-at-home orders and restarting the economy.… Ben Bajarin, principal analyst for consumer market intelligence at Creative Strategies, said that Apple likely realized many customers were buying older models such as the iPhone 8 rather than the newer iPhone 11 Pro at $999, “and a big part of that is probably price.” Those budget-minded iPhone buyers may have been turned off by the iPhone 8’s aging chips and camera.
“Given its price tag, (the iPhone SE) is unlikely to be that impactful for Apple’s financials, but could help widen the installed base, which will be helpful long term for Apple’s services revenue,” said James Cordwell, an analyst with Atlantic Equities.
