Later this year according to a new note from reliable Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo at KGI
Securities and corroborated by our sources, Apple plans to introduce a
dramatically overhauled MacBook Pro. He says the device
will have a new “thinner and lighter” design with design cues taken
from the
12-inch MacBook
, as well as Touch ID support and a new OLED
display touch bar above the keyboard.
Alongside the rumor of a OLED touch bar,
the design will apparently include new metal injection-molded hinges
that will enable the company to make the Pro series lighter and thinner.
(Uncorroborated reports suggested that Apple has tapped the same company that made the Surface's special hinges.)
The same sources say that new Pro laptops will come with USB-C and
Thunderbolt 3, while Apple will also bring a new 13-inch MacBook similar
to the latest 12-inch Retina model hat was just upgraded with performance boosts.If the range of MacBooks was
confusing before, it could get even more baffling. According
to Kuo's report suggests
that 13- and 15-inch models will arrive late 2016, although more
details on that curious OLED bar are scarce -- and that's the most
interesting part.
