Apple’s 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pros with M2 Pro and M2 Max finally got their big announcement today. While it was just a press release and a video rather than a major production at Cupertino, there’s still a lot to digest. It’s been 15 months since the outstanding MacBook Pro 14 with M1 Pro arrived, and since then we’ve been introduced to the MacBook Air M2 and 13-inch MacBook Pro with M2....

Razer Blade 15 (opens in new tab) for $1,099 ($500 off, Core i7/16GB/128GB SSD) We reviewed this configuration of the Blade 15 and it earned 4 stars. We were impressed by its ever-stylish, lightweight chassis that got a boxy, retro redesign. And it held its own in the gaming and productivity fronts.
