Apple's 16-inch and 14-inch MacBook Pros will soon be released in the market. Before that happens, here are the important changes and features you need to know that could help you decide if you will purchase on.
SAN FRANCISCO, CA - JUNE 11: WWDC attendees look at the new MacBook Pro that is displayed following the keynote address at the Apple 2012 World Wide Developers Conference (WWDC) at Moscone West on June 11, 2012 in San Francisco, California. Apple unveiled a slew of new hardware and software updates at the company's annual developer conference which runs through June 15.
The upcoming laptops will feature the most significant design changes in Apple's MacBook Pro flagships since 2016. The tech giant manufacturer also confirmed that the new gadgets will solve the issues faced by the consumers with the previous models.
According to MacRumors' latest report, Apple will bring back the MacBook Pro's old features, such as the MagSafe. It will also have more ports and physical function keys. Here are the specific changes and the features that will return in the upcoming MacBook Pros.
16-inch and 14-inch MacBook Pros' changes
Apple is expected to bring back the old favorite MagSafe in the upcoming MacBook Pro models. This feature was first used in the previous laptop models from 2006 until 2016. However, Apple decided to change it with a USB-C port a few years after 2016.
SAN ANSELMO, CALIFORNIA - JUNE 27: In this photo illustration, the MacBook Pro logo is displayed on an Apple MacBook Pro laptop on June 27, 2019 in San Anselmo, California. Apple announced a recall of an estimated 432,000 15-inch MacBook Pro laptops due to concerns of overheating batteries that could catch fire. The recall is for 15-inch MacBook Pro laptops sold between September 2015 and February 2017.
On the other hand, Ming-Chi Kuo, an Apple analyst, said that the tech giant manufacturer will remove the latest Touch Bar feature. Apple specifically designed this feature to replace the function keys that were located in its place.
The feature provides a small OLED display that offers customizable controls and different functions on a per-app basis. On the other hand, since Apple promised that all upcoming MacBook flagships will have their latest M1 chipset, the upcoming 16-inch and 14-inch laptops will most likely have the company's new in-house chip. These are just some of the new features that consumers should expect. You can click here for more details.
Apple's upcoming iMac redesign
Aside from the upcoming MacBook Pro flagships, Apple is also allegedly working on redesigning its iMac. The Verge reported that the new iMac model will replace the Intel-powered 27-inch and 21.5-inch iMac flagships.
The giant manufacturer will most likely move its all-in-one desktop to its own in-house M1 chipset. Apple's innovation is considered the most significant change of any Apple product this year of 2021.
