The new MacBook Pro may be controversial (and that’s an understatement), but Slice Intelligence reports that in the first five days of availability online, the latest model generated over seven times the revenue that the 12-inch MacBook did during its April 2015 launch.
The new model’s sales already equal 78% of all the revenue generated by the 12-inch MacBook since it became available, and has accumulated more revenue than any other laptop this year., according to the research group, which has a panel of over 4.4 million online shoppers.
The new MacBook Pro has already outsold combined sales of the Dell XPS 13 and 15, which have been on sale for more than 10 months. It has also sold almost four times as many units as Microsoft’s Surface Book.
