Two 2020 models, easy to mix up
2 ports or 4 ports ?
Apple sold two different 13-inch Pros in 2020. Count the Thunderbolt ports: two means the entry model (8th-gen Intel, macOS Sequoia at most); four means the higher-spec model (10th-gen Intel, 16GB standard, and it runs the latest macOS Tahoe). This page is the four-port model.

Common Questions
Is the four-port 13” 2020 MacBook Pro still worth buying in 2026?
For the right buyer, yes: it's the last Intel 13-inch Pro, with a quad-core 10th-generation Core i5 or i7, 16GB as standard, four Thunderbolt 3 ports, the Magic Keyboard with Touch Bar and Touch ID, and the T2 security chip — at a fraction of the £1,799–£1,999 launch price. It runs macOS Tahoe (the final Intel release) and it dual-boots Windows via Boot Camp. If you don't need Windows or x86 software, the 13” M1/M2 is faster, silent and lasts twice as long on battery.
Two ports or four ports — what's the difference in the 2020 models?
Apple sold two 13-inch Pros in 2020. The four-port (4TB3) model on this page has the 10th-generation Intel Core i5 2.0GHz or i7 2.3GHz, 16GB of faster LPDDR4X memory (32GB CTO), four Thunderbolt 3 ports and support for the latest macOS Tahoe. The two-port (2TB3) model has the 8th-generation Core i5 1.4GHz or i7 1.7GHz, 8GB standard (16GB CTO), two ports on the left side, and tops out at macOS Sequoia. Screen, keyboard, size and weight are identical.
Which macOS does it run, and will it keep getting updates?
It runs the latest macOS 26 Tahoe — one of only two Intel MacBook Pros that do (the other is the 16” 2019). Apple has said Tahoe is the final major macOS for Intel Macs, with security updates continuing for years after. Apple Intelligence features need an Apple Silicon Mac.
What's the difference between Fair, Good and Excellent?
Purely cosmetic — every Mac is fully tested and works perfectly regardless of grade. Fair has noticeable scratches or light dents (our best value), Good shows light signs of use, and Excellent looks like new. See our grading guide with photos.
What ports does it have, and how many monitors can it drive?
Four Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) ports — two each side — plus a headphone jack; it charges over any port with the included 61W USB-C charger. It drives one 6K or two 4K external displays — more than the M1/M2 13-inch, which manages one.
What's included, and what about warranty and delivery?
Every Mac comes with a fully compatible 61W USB-C charger, a 12-month RTB hardware warranty, 14-day returns, an 85%+ battery-health guarantee (under 400 charge cycles) and free insured next-day UK delivery on weekdays.
