One thing Skylake can’t do, however, is output 5K resolutions over a single cable stream. We may not see that flip of the switch in this year’s notebooks, but it’s possible nonetheless for Apple to tap into this functionality later on. Skylake has some tricks up its silicon sleeve that Broadwell lacks, including support for WiGig and WiDi short-range, high speed data transfer as well as wireless charging. Rest assured, we’re bound to see massive speed improvements across the board in addition to impressive battery lives, even if the specs don’t quite stack up against Kaby Lake. This year’s MacBook Pro, however, is believed to meet in the middle, at long last making the move to sixth-generation Skylake chips.

The MacBook Pro is trailing PC rivals in the processor stakes: Dell and HP are moving on to the seventh-generation Intel Kaby Lake processors this fall, while Apple is still clinging to the fifth-generation Broadwell chips. MacBook Pro 2016: What’s so special about Skylake? The 13-inch non-Retina MacBook Pro, tucked away apologetically at the foot of Apple’s product page, surely can’t be long for this world come the updates we’d expect it to vanish in favour of a Retina 13-inch model instead.Īpple tends to keep its pricing similar between generations, so an £899 entry-level Pro with Retina display is likely to be the baby of the range. The current MacBook Pro range starts at £899 ($1,099) for the 13-inch non-Retina model, rising to £999 ($1,119) for the entry-level 13-inch Retina MacBook Pro and topping out at £1,999 ($2,099) for the 2.5GHz 15-inch Retina. The machine is expected to boast a quadruplet of USB-C ports, two on each side, perhaps complemented by additional color variations akin to the 12-inch MacBook. Reports suggest that the new, slimmer MacBook Pro will be unveiled on October 27, the same day Apple is slated to host a press keynote. The hinges, which purportedly began shipment back in June, were allegedly being manufactured by Jarllytec, a major Taiwanese manufacturer who also crafts hinges for Microsoft’s convertible tablet. Up to this point, everything we’ve heard indicates that the new hardware, which will come in three different flavors, features hinges produced using a mechanism called ‘metal injection molding’ inspired by the Surface Book. Since then, following the launch of macOS Sierra, we’ve caught word that Apple released macOS Sierra 10.12.1, which itself hinted at integration with the new OLED ‘Magic Toolbar’.

While there were no computers in sight at the iPhone event, shortly thereafter Apple CEO Tim Cook suggested we “stay tuned” for Mac developments. More recently, Apple’s iPhone 7 event took place on September 7, the next candidate for a pair of new MacBooks to be announced. New MacBook Pros took a backseat to macOS Sierra and iOS 10.

However, as reports had previously suggested, this year’s conference focused primarily on introducing new software updates rather than hardware. We originally expected to see the new MacBook Pro 2016 at Apple’s annual developer event, WWDC, this June.
What will it cost? Likely starting at £899 ($1,099, about AUS$1,670).When is it out? Reveal on October 27 with a launch shortly after.

Let’s sift through the river of rumors to find nuggets of knowledge: what can we really expect from the 2016 MacBook Pro refresh? Cut to the chase And, like the iPhone 7 before it, some are even suggesting the death of the 3.5mm headphone jack. Instead, a Touch ID-capable OLED display called the Magic Toolbar is surmised to take the place of the MacBook Pro’s function keys in its 2016 revision.Ī ‘Magic Toolbar’ was further evidenced by a set of product photos leaked by Apple’s itself ahead of an official announcement and, in turn, discovered by MacRumors. The biggest change is likely to be in the Pros’ processors, and while there are rumors of detachable touchscreens we’d take them with a hefty pinch of salt. New MacBook Pros are clearly imminent, especially considering Apple’s market share in the computing space fell 13.4% in Q3 2016 compared to the year prior. Apple’s MacBook Pro range hasn’t been updated for some time: the 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina was refreshed in March 2015 and the 15-inch in May.
