This is literally the upgrade from my 2012 MBP Pro I have been waiting for. Do not even have to sacrifice my hdmi, MagSafe or sd card slot 😍

notch is hideous. hdmi port fattened the machine. i have no idea why.
but of course moments ago they show the notch as part of the status bar which is like
WELL FINE IF ONLY YOU'D SAY SO BEFORE

So show us how this notch doesn’t obscure tool bars in full screen mode. I need to see this.
Yada, yada. But they are taking this back to the future thing quite seriously.
Not only does it resemble a 2007 MBP, it has ports.

A notch on a laptop…. Don’t like it. The rest looks real good.
Wow, this might be most revolutionary update to the MacBook Pro ever.
A notch and a huge chin!! The thin side bezels look so out of place..
Well nobody can say Apple didn't listen to feedback by pretty much making a U-turn to the 2015 style MBP body/ports etc.
I don’t mind the notch. I’d rather have that over a thicker top bezel.
I like the old design better. This looks like a Dell Inspiron from the early 2010s, minus the thinness.

Why is it always two steps forward, one step back with these dummies
“It also looks good in dark mode, which our pros love” = yeah because it looks terrible not in dark mode.
I don’t know about you, but I am selling my 13” M1 MBP.
They did it again.
They did it again.
And we thought the notch would be used to get rid of the bezels. Instead we get the notch and the bezels!
Trading a USB 4 port for an HDMI port is a downgrade.
Honestly not going to hate on the notch but would have been nice if Dark Mode could hide the notch better. The tech all sounds good but it's not a looker. Those feet look weird as well.

Get rid of a useful touchbar for crap like an SD slot and HDMI? Wow...neat. Hard pass
So then don’t buy it. Simple
I don’t understand, are people really complaining about having more screen real estate?
That bottom case design is a throwback to older powerbooks. I like it.
Yep, useless ports most people will never use.
Oh I get it.
When you hit full screen mode on an app the menu bar becomes black and the app window doesn’t go in that area.
For windowed mode I guess devs will be told there is a limit to how many menu bar options they can have.
