Terms of the previous offer
- Currys explicitly states that the laptop charger is not included. The box contains a USB-C to MagSafe 3 cable, so budget for a suitable USB-C power adapter if you do not already own one.
- Exact Currys item 10292723 was out of stock on 15 August 2026; do not rely on the previous £1,249 offer unless the same variant returns with buying controls.
- 16GB unified memory and the 512GB SSD cannot be upgraded after purchase, so buyers running large virtual machines, heavy professional media projects or large local libraries may need a higher configuration.
- The listing says Backlit Magic Keyboard but does not explicitly confirm the physical UK key layout; check the product imagery and order details if this matters.
Why the previous offer stood out
- The M5 10-core CPU, 10-core GPU, 16GB unified memory and 512GB SSD form a balanced base MacBook Pro specification at £1,249.
- The 14.2-inch 3024x1964 Liquid Retina XDR display supports adaptive refresh rates up to 120Hz, P3 colour and high HDR brightness.
- Three Thunderbolt 4 ports, HDMI, MagSafe 3, an SDXC card reader and a 1.55kg chassis make it better equipped for sustained work than a MacBook Air.
