I guess today's release window came and went. Lets see if they announce it tomorrow morning.
 
is it my imagination, or was there a rumour going around that the 16 inch MacBook pro would also have a cellular connection also? i would really love that option.
 

You're forgetting that they did a formal announcement of the product though at an event. Its not like Apple just threw it up on their website with no one ever having seen or heard of it before, which is the case here. Apple has never discussed this new MacBook Pro. To me, a thinner bezel with an updated keyboard is going to warrant an event.

I still say this is 2020 at an event. I hope I'm wrong but I doubt it.
 
Is going to be too expensive to be a Christmas gift and they don't want a redesign muddying consumer sentiment for their current models around Christmas. They will release early February after the return period for Christmas is over
 
Once out it will be a disappointment.

Apparently the bezel is only slightly slimmer and the body actually larger. So it’s not going to be a 16’’ in a 15’’ body really.

Won’t look as cool as in that concept image I’m afraid.

If so, hopefully Apple doesn’t regard this as a real redesign and we have to wait another 3-4 years for a full overhaul.
 
It'll launch right after the PowerBook G5.

Apple have released new Macbook Pro's every four years like clockwork since 2008. This next one is going to be 2020. Thanks.

I believe it will be soon because sales have been dropping faster than Apple would like, due to the keyboard, the thermals on the current 15in, processor price drops, people wanting a larger screen like the old 17in and more competition.
 
I've decided that this is the last time I'm going to allow myself to get baited by these new MBP rumours. It will happen when it happens, I need to accept that lol.


It is a bit silly to get excited, and tiring! They make a "new" machine every year, so yeah, it will show up.

Of course many are waiting for news of a "worthy" replacement. I ask myself if i will buy another mac, or if i will buy a Lenovo?

I think it all hinges on this upcoming machine. It will tell us what direction Apple have decided to go. Will the new MBP be an Apple Watch type fashion accessory, you know, like imagine hipsters ironically using a laptop when they can swipe on a mini phone on their wrist that isnt actually a phone....or will it be a tool following in the long lost tradition of making machines built for function?
