New chip in production in April and we’re to expect new products based on it half a season later?
- no thought to thorough testing under various extremes the chip would go through?
- no thought to creating and testing various motherboards/logic boards?
- no thought to production tests or variants?
- no thought to testing product colour variants before production?
April, currently it’s May, and next month it’ll be June at WWDC on the 7th/10th. heck a LARQ large fridge is taking 2mths from design to finalizing production (and it’s built out of recycled plastics except for 5mm glass lens, electronics for UV-C, battery and traditional filter packages). We’ve NEVER seen a production laptop, desktop, heck even an iPhone take 2 months from chip production to annoucement and shipping under 30 days.
I think the April chip production is going to fall or winter products, not these MBP to be announced in a few weeks.
