The leaked Apple MacBook Pro M4 is available for sale on a Russian website.
The issues with Apple's MacBook Pro persist.
Recently, a significant leak related to the M4 MacBook Pro has occurred, which could be one of the largest in Apple's history since the iPhone 4. A classified ads website in Russia showcased this device, which the company apparently planned to unveil at the end of this month. Two Russian YouTubers managed to get their hands on an M4 MacBook Pro and shared unboxing videos, generating quite a stir.
The listing for the laptop on the Avito platform, similar to Craigslist, included a price of 720,000 rubles, equivalent to about $7,000 USD. However, this post has since been removed for violating the site’s policies on selling "non-existent products."
The fact that the M4 MacBook Pro is on the way is not surprising, as industry analysts, such as Mark Gurman from Bloomberg, had already hinted at the imminent arrival of this version of Apple's flagship laptop. In the shared videos, it was observed that the new model features three Thunderbolt 4 ports, surpassing the two typically found in previous versions, and a base configuration of 16GB of RAM.
What is truly surprising is how these devices made it to Russia, especially considering that the United States has imposed strict sanctions on the country, preventing companies like Apple from operating there. The appearance of several M4 MacBooks for sale suggests that there may have been smuggling of a batch of laptops manufactured in China. Whatever the situation, the leaked M4 MacBook Pro models have not yet been confirmed as authentic, and Apple has not provided any official comments on the matter.
