Images of New MacBook Pro With Magic Toolbar Leaked in macOS Sierra 10.12.1

Somebody's getting fired....this is as bad as when Apple's Twitter account leaked the iPhone 7 details

Don't be silly.

Sales of 2015 MacBook Pro's skyrocket.

This is quite funny and true. I'm planning on ordering the early-2015 model for my significant other once the price drops. I also own the early-2015 model and I'm happy that the new one still looks quite similar!

 

[CmdrLaForge]

Why oh why still those bezels

 

[PatriotInvasion]

I like the return of the MacBook Pro branding on the bezel. It is also noticeably in the San Francisco font.

What was the font used previously and on the current 12-inch MacBook bezel?

 

[bjet767]

ARM Processor on board for Touch ID, OLED & Hey Siri?

And here it comes again. Can't you all just enjoy the moment?

Do you complain when given a Christmas present that it wasn't what you wanted?

I like the speakers on either side of the keyboard and just hope they knocked at least a half a pound off the current 13" MBP.

 

[WiseAJ]

No no no no no!!!!! I seriously pray the "MacBook Pro" moniker is just the wet dream of the person who created the "redesign" mockup, please gawd please gawd please gawd no moniker arrrggghhh!!

What is everyone's problem with this?

 

[KALLT]

Hopefully this means that Apple finally opens up to a Trusted Platform Module or Secure Element.

 

[xmonkey]

Yes guys, please don't buy one because of the rMB keyboard design, that means I've got a better chance at getting one ASAP

 

[rasputin1969]

It's a shame that (unlike the existing rMBP) Apple have decided to slap "Macbook Pro" branding at the bottom of the screen. I always though the lack of in your face branding while using the machine was pretty classy.

 

[gnsallman]

so where are the ports

There are none. You get the computer with a full charge and once it dies, you can't charge it. You have to buy a new one.

I'm a bit skeptical of this new OLED bar.

How many folks look down at their keyboard when doing work? I do a lot of typing and I rarely do.

So Apple brings about a feature where I have to look at my keyboard down from the screen to use something and I can't use muscle memory to hit the ESC key but be afraid that I may hit the *wrong* thing?

I'm not sure how good of an idea this is, will need to use it for a while to see if it's going to increase productivity or just get in the way.

 

[Polaroid]

I was hoping for much thinner bezels, looks the same tbh - the sides only look thinner cause they are at an angle...

Lol, people here were just as peeved when they removed the 'MacBook Pro' branding from the rMBP's display.

Face it. Nobody will ever be 100% satisfied.

 

[Crzyrio]

Hmmmm..... maybe for the secure element ? But could be a simple S2 driving the OLED panel as well.

If they are including an S2 I would think they would use an ARM with secure element as well instead of Intel's secure element

 

[Ankaa]

Just get a 2015 on the cheap, if the keyboard's that much of a deal breaker. They're still solid, capable computers.

I'm a big BIG MBA fan...the current rMBPs are too thick/heavy for my personal taste. But the MBAs probably never gonna see retina and I wouldn't buy a Mac without retina, nowadays.

 

[ahlsn]

So how do you change the brightness while doing an Apple Pay payment?

Probably hold down alt key or something

 

[navaira]

No, you are no the 'only' one. Any DSLR/Mirrorless camera owner will be bothered but overall the number of us is relatively small and apple isn't afraid of having people use adapters based on past experience. So why its not certain they will get rid of it, I say there is a high chance, and they will instead sell an adapter with an SD card port.

I seriously hope 1) they come up with a dock instead of 12 dongles and 2) that dock will not cost €299.

 

[TimothyBe]

The Touch ID will be a "button" like the one on your iphone 7 with haptic feedback.

 

[jkim13]

I use the function keys all the time when using Excel. Will suck not having physical key since I use them almost as often as I use the enter and tab keys.

 

[Ankaa]

I keep wondering...am I the only one who's gonna miss the illuminated Apple logo dearly?

 

[apolloa]

Cool, looks nice with those thinner bezels, the touch strip looks meh but it may be like 3DTouch, seems pointless at first then it becomes something you use all the time.

 

[Saturn1217]

The details are very nice.
Can someone explain me where is the on/off button?
Isn't there a need for a physical button?

Was thinking the exact same thing! Doesn't the on/off button need to be a physical button? And if it is on any location besides above the keyboard, that is going to be really weird.

We have less than 48hrs to learn the truth...the suspense is killing me...

EDIT: ok now I see that the touch ID area is separate and might also serve as the power button. Makes sense.

 

[talkybear]

Unusable keyboards and no function keys, I doubt this works well for real professional users.

 

[MacsomJRR]

Yeah...not happy about that.

Ditto.

Wait, who said they're removing it? Did I miss something?
