Is this a good deal? (www.bestbuy.com)

Hi all, thanks in advance for any help. I’m looking to get a MacBook primarily for work but will want to use it for light recreational use too.

I believe in future proofing as I don’t want to but another device any time soon. I also like the idea of being able to carry it.

This seems like a good deal. It’s between this or the new MacBook pro m3 entry level 14” with 8gb of memory.

Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks

I actually just picked up this laptop from Best Buy yesterday. If you make the same configurations on Apple, the price is over $100 more. I think that’s a great deal, plus I got it with zero interest financing for 24 months! Can’t beat that. As for whether this vs an M3 MBP, I think it’s mainly preference. This laptop would probably be able to multitask better because of the added RAM, but I’d imagine the M3 computes quicker. I went for the bigger screen lol.
