According to the tech giant, you’ll be able to feel the speed in ‘everything you do’, whether that’s creating content or playing graphics-intensive games.

Yet despite its latest advances in tech, Apple fans are surprised to learn that the price has stayed the same, and it’s now available to pre-order online.
