OLED panels are often thinner
Oh, thank God! Already having major back problems carrying my new .7mm thick MacBook pro!
Don't worry. Next year Apple will announce the Paper thin MacBook Pro.
The keyboard and screen will each be the thickness of a piece of paper.
The only sacrifice will be ports, battery life, and durability.
It can be neatly folded along its crease lines and placed in your pocket. Be aware that wrinkling it does void the warranty and will likely cause it to develop system failure.
Battery life will be in the area of 1 hour (not much space for a battery). Recharging is accomplished by sliding the charging adapter into the microscopic and nearly invisible charging port. The adapter itself is only the thickness of a human hair. Care must be taken to avoid split ends or bending of the power connector.
The amazing new paper thin MacBook Pro will only be $3599. AppleCare will be available to cover all accidental damage at the bargain price of $12,000, covering unlimited repairs for 3 years.
Aftermarket protective cases are available from Pee Chee folders.
