Retina MacBook Pro Lineup Refresh Brings Faster CPUs, More RAM Standard; India Prices Slashed

Apple has refreshed its lineup of Retina MacBook Pro laptops, giving each model a speed bump and an increased amount of RAM by default. Further, the India prices of all Retina MacBook Pro variants have been slashed, with most models receiving a  Rs. 5,000 price drop, while the most expensive variant has seen its price cut by Rs. 20,000. The non-Retina MacBook Pro has received a price drop of  Rs. 11,000.

All 13-inch Retina MacBook Pro laptops will now come with 8GB RAM standard. Earlier, the 256GB and 512GB SSD storage variants came equipped with 8GB RAM, while the entry-level 128GB model had 4GB RAM standard. The 128GB and 256GB SSD storage variants will now come with 2.6GHz dual-core Intel Core i5 processor, instead of the 2.4GHz processor they earlier came with. The 512GB SSD variant gets a speed bump from 2.6GHz to 2.8GHz.

The 15-inch 256GB SSD variant of the Retina MacBook Pro will now come with 16GB RAM as standard to match its 512GB SSD counterpart. The CPU on the 256GB and 512GB SSD variants has been bumped up to 2.2GHz and 2.5GHz respectively, a jump of 200MHz for both.

Rest of the specifications of both 13-inch and 15-inch Retina MacBook Pro models can be found on the Apple website.

I went to reliance digital express or old istore in anna nagar chennai.

The price of iphone 5s 16gb came down from 53,500 to 49,900 only.
iphone 4s  8 gb with buy back offer from 30,500 to 24,500 , like flat 6000 discount. If you with your smartphone with wifi then 2000 discount will be added.

macbook pro 13 inch dual core 3rd generation , 4 gb ddr3 , 500 gb hdd is 78,700 rs where last month it was 89,000 something  :educated

Also in emi option if you use hdfc credit card they give your 6,700 cash back after 90 days + 1000 rs from hdfc bank credit cards only. Rest all cards 5,700 cash back after 90 days.
via bajaj finance , they will give you 13% process fees free , so its 0% interest  free.

Bad things i found out a good information about gadget depreciation price.  >:(  :(
my iphone 3g 8gb for 500 rs take back
my iphone 4 16gb for 8000 rs take back
and after 3 months of iphone 6 launch , iphone  4 will be lowered to 2000 rs too. Soo iphone 4 and 4s lovers should sell the mobile for 8000 immediately in some cash back or ?
