Apple publishes one trade-in figure for each MacBook family, the most it pays for the newest model in the best condition. An older MacBook Pro 13-inch (Intel, 2020) gets less, so the tool leaves Apple's figure out of the upgrade cost and uses local quotes.
Is it worth upgrading from the MacBook Pro 13-inch (Intel, 2020) to the MacBook Pro 14-inch (M5)?
A new MacBook Pro 14-inch (M5) with 16GB / 1TB costs £1,999 in the United Kingdom. After selling yours at the best local quote, it costs £1,720 (5 Oct 2026). Our default verdict: UPGRADE.
Your MacBook Pro 13-inch (Intel, 2020) does not get macOS 27. Upgrading makes sense.
- Your Mac does not get macOS 27, which runs only on Apple silicon. Apple usually sends security fixes to the previous version for a while, but new features and app support will move on without it.
- It is 6 years old.
What the MacBook Pro 14-inch (M5) adds
- The M5 chip, against the Intel Core i5/i7 in yours.
- Apple Intelligence, which your Mac cannot run.
- A Liquid Retina XDR display with ProMotion.
Your own result depends on memory, SSD, battery, condition and where you sell, so run the tool for your Mac.
