Apple on Monday introduced new MacBook Pro and iMac computers and three new chips to power them, with the company saying it had redesigned its graphics processing units (GPU), a key part of the chip where Nvidia dominates the market.

The new computers and the M3, M3 Pro and M3 Max chips were unveiled at an online event heavily focused on professional users.

In the UAE, the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro laptops, and the new iMac desktop with the M3 family of chips are available for pre-order now, and will be available to buy on November 7. The 14-inch laptops start at Dh6,899 and go up to Dh13,539, with the price depending on storage, chip, and other specifications. The 16-inch ones, meanwhile, range between Dh10,499 and Dh16,799.

The new iMac desktop with the M3 family of chips starts at Dh5,499 and goes up to Dh7,179.

According to the Apple website, monthly instalments are available.

Apple also tweaked its overall lineup of computers, appearing to have eliminated a cheaper 13-inch model of its MacBook Pro.
