Macbook Pro 2016 Rumors, Release Date: Sierra Hints At OLED Touch Bar, No News At WWDC
Shilpa ChakravortyAlthough Mac users were disappointed in the WWDC 2016 as no information was available about Macbook Pro 2016, rumors have been in the air about its specs.
There has been no confirmation about the possible release date of Macbook Pro 2016, yet chances are there that it will be out during September 2016.
A new report from Macotakara citing a reliable source in China claims Apple will announce the 2016 MacBook Pro in June with an August release date. While still possible, this was not shown at E3.
The reason for late confirmation of the Macbook Pro 2016, according to Gotta Be Mobile is perhaps due to the late arrival of the Intel processor. Apple has reportedly relied on Intel chips for Macbook Pro and other Macbooks and thus, have lesser controls over the production compared to the Apple - A series processors used in iPad and iPhones.
A leak shared by Cult of Mac showed the users with keyboard, which the new layout found in the Macbook and Apple Magic keyboard, but with an opening at the top to include the OLED touch panel for easier control of some functions.
The touchpad in the leaked design is bigger than the current model, and the Macbook is rumored to have a sleeker body.
The newest design for the Macbook also comes with four USB C type ports and a headphone jack, but no SD card reader or MagSafe 2 charging connection.
Although there has been no confirmation on Apple's side regarding the OLED touch panel, the new code spotted in macOS Sierra reportedly supports an OLED touch screen, which could be introduced at the top of the 13-inch Macbook Pro model.
