This 16-inch MacBook Pro stands out for the nano-texture display, which is still rare on MacBook deals and is the main reason the configuration feels special. The 48GB memory and 1TB SSD make it a strong high-end setup, and the machine is still described as under 5 pounds and portable for a laptop. Pricing comparisons put it near prior M5 Max money, with similar or lower prices seen on other MacBook Pro configurations and refurbs. The main cautions are that the price has climbed, B and H Photo has a zero-return policy on opened laptops, and the larger chassis can feel heavy over a full day.

  • The price is described as not terrible by Apple standards, especially compared with Apple refurb pricing.

  • The nano-texture display is a rare configuration for MacBook deals, which makes this offer stand out.

  • A matte screen protector can help match the nano-texture look when the exact glass finish is not available.

  • The 16-inch model is reported to weigh under five pounds, keeping it relatively portable for a laptop.

  • The deal price is reported to be close to M5 Max money, and a similar configuration was seen for less at Micro Center.

  • B&H is reported to have a zero-return policy on opened laptops, which limits options to an exchange only.

  • The nano-texture screen is reported to be less common than expected, and gloss screens are described as undesirable.

  • A matte protector workaround is reported to be imperfect, since attempts can create air bubbles on the screen.

Not terrible by today's Apple standards but this same configuration was $2400 at Microcenter not that long ago.

Yeah this was close to what was previously M5 Max money. Keep in mind BHPhoto has a zero return policy on opened laptops. Just exchange.

Not a terrible deal, but man I am soooooo glad I pounced last winter on an open box M4 max 48gb 1tb for like $2598. Everything is getting so crazy $$$$
Same. I paid $2900 for a 16" M5 64GB 1TB regular screen about three weeks before the prices went up. I went with black because the gray was $200 more.

The day Apple introduces touch screen on laptops that is the day I get one. It is silly to not have touchscreen. Even cheap Chromebooks have touchscreen.
