Costco's 14.2 inch MacBook Pro with the M5 chip, 16GB memory, and 1TB storage is drawing attention as a strong value for everyday productivity, especially with the Pro screen, ports, and free shipping at $1,349.99. The 1TB storage and Costco's 90 day return window add appeal, and the deal is also honored in warehouse with a simple pickup flow. The main concern is RAM headroom, since 16GB can feel tight for heavy multitasking, Teams, development, or local AI work. It looks best for general use and lighter creative or coding tasks.

  • Costco's 90-day return window can reduce risk if the M6 version deal changes after purchase.

    freshsqueezedT3QN1K

  • 16GB RAM can be sufficient for office work, web browsing, light Python, and light photo or video editing.

    Capetotxpyro

  • Costco's deal appears to work smoothly for in-warehouse pickup using the app stock check and merchandise pickup flow.

    TheDoDeals

  • The $1,349.99 price undercuts Apple's $1,999 pricing for the same 14-inch M5/16GB/1TB configuration.

    Itechnofreakify

  • 16GB RAM can feel limiting under heavier multitasking, which may lead to disk swapping.

    fintlewoodlewixa_land

  • Checkout and order placement can fail, including a frozen order placement screen and later order cancellations.

    BlNG0Capeto

  • Office usage can trigger memory pressure, and Teams performance can be poor on this class of configuration.

    a_land

  • Intermittent freezing has been reported on an M1 Pro MacBook, which raises concerns about stability for similar systems.

its the 16gb ram. I have m1 air 8gb ram and it's enough except the damn ram. wish I got the 16gb from the jump, wouldnt be looking to upgrade right now
Same here. I'm still using my M1 Pro 8GB RAM from 2020 and its the RAM that's the issue now + battery has degraded since I've used my Macbook a lot.

Looking to get a new Macbook but not sure which one I need (Macbook Pro w/ 16GB ram or would having Macbook Air w/ 24GB ram be better, etc).

I think I'm going to go 24gb. Just so I don't run into issues later. Some people supposedly are saying 16gb sometime has slow downs now

What do you do? Data analytics, app design, local LLMs, video encoding, multiple huge excel documents? If none of those then 16 GB would likely serve you well for the next 4+ years. I do the above less LLMs on my 16 GB M2 Pro MacBook Pro without much issue on the RAM side (huge data sets I'm throwing on a server anyways)....

Do you value the nicer screen/ports of the Pro? The Air is fanless if you prefer that and aren't doing heavy calculations/encoding etc.... If you are doing those then the fan is nice to have so it doesn't throttle.

Very tempted by this, my M1 Pro MBP (base model) is starting to feel a lil bit long in the tooth and the battery is 5 or 6 years old at this point. For my use case I don't think I need the M5 Pro processor but I do use the additional ports and better screen compared to the MacBook Air.

For comparison, the 13" MacBook Air with an M5 processor and 1TB storage upgrade currently retails for $1600; the 14" MacBook Pro with the newly released M6 processor (comes with 1TB storage) retails for $2000.

You have 90 days to return to Costco, so nothing to lose by buying now just in case inventory is gone with the M6 released.

Oof. 16gb for a MacBook Pro? Gimme a break. I bet an 8GB version for 999 will get upvotes too.

A battery swap is way cheaper. The performance here isn't going to be much more, especially if you have 32gb in your old machine.

I don't have 32GB in my old machine.Also slight update to my previous post, Costco has the 1TB/16GB MacBook Air for $1400, or with 24GB of RAM for $1600.

Typical/daily usage would be watching a bunch of videos (movies, shows, YouTube, etc), listening to music, emails, and things like that.

I'm a Software Engineer so sometimes regular development + I also do mobile app development (Xcode, Android Studio) while also utilizing different AI tools. I would definitely want to be able to run both Xcode w/ IOS Simulator + Android Studio w/ Android Emulator + other things without it lagging, being choppy, or having issues.

Most of the dev work I've done the past several months were work-related so it was done on my work 16 inch Macbook Pro which is a pretty high spec one from 2 years ago.

24GB of ram with this is an actual upgrade over the M1. If you want to upgrade, that's a legit deal and enough RAM for almost everyone.

Who are you? Sam Altman? A web browser with a bunch of tabs is going to pressure 16GB. Add some other normal person apps like spotify and whatsapp and you're now diskswapping.
