The new M2 Apple Silicon 13-inch MacBook Pro is now available to pre-order, with first orders expected to arrive on June 24.

Following its announcement at Apple's WWDC 2022 keynote, the 13-inch MacBook Pro can now be ordered online. It can be configured with 8GB RAM, 16GB RAM, or 24GB RAM, plus between 256GB SSD and 2TB SSD storage.

At present, it seems custom configurations are not available. Early attempts to select one were met with a "currently unavailable" denial.

"The 13-inch MacBook Pro is supercharged by the new M2 chip, which begins the next generation of Apple silicon and takes the breakthrough capabilities of M1 even further," Apple wrote of the new device.

Compared to the previous generation MacBook Pro, the new model has an M2 chip with a next-generation 8-core CPU and 10-core GPU. It also supports up to 24GB of Unified Memory, up from the previous cap.

The 13-inch MacBook Pro also has ProRes encoding and decoding for users working with the Apple video standard. Its battery life has also received a boost, with the model lasting up to 20 hours on a charge — longer than any other Apple portable notebook.

Other than those features, the 13-inch MacBook Pro remains unchanged from the previous model. Most of the new MacBook Pro's significant gains are because of the M2 chip, which is an incremental update on the M1 with a real-world performance boost.

It hasn't received any of the major redesigns or new features of the new M2-equipped MacBook Air, which isn't debuting at the same time as the 13-inch MacBook Pro.

Apple also says the new MacBook Pro is created with 100% recycled rare earth elements in its enclosure magnets and 100% recycled tin in the solder of its main logic board.

The 13-inch MacBook Pro will start at $1,299, or $1,199 for education customers. It's available in silver and space gray color options.

Now that Apple has begun taking preorders, the new MacBook Pro will also become available from third-party resellers who typically offer better deals.
