TrendForce: 16-Inch MacBook Pro Will Hit Shelves This Fall

Do you regularly notice individual pixels at 227 PPI at normal viewing distance?

This is a pretty irrelevant marketing hype statistic. While it is technically true you can't see the pixels at this density, it doesn't mean you can't make out more detail in a higher resolution display. As Apple themselves demonstrated when they introduced @3x retina with the iPhone 6 plus.

I always got the 17'' macbook pro with full configuration. Since they discontinued the 17'' macbook pros I never renewed my laptop, worked on my desktop. I really wish they would make 17'' as well. I really enjoyed the screen size, cooling, keyboard and trackpad size. Also the speakers were great too! Bring those back with better SSD, ram and graphic cards please. I really dont care about them making it slimmer. The thickness we currently have is enough.

This fall I would like to see refreshed MBP 13" with 10nm 4-core i5 Ice Lake U processor (with new integrated Wi-Fi card AX) and finally new scissor mechanism keyboard.

In case of OLED screens be careful what you wish for... because OLED panels have significant current draw (much shorter battery life) and I believe this is one of reason why Apple does not want to offer it now. Also according to external tests OLED delta color errors are much higher (see Dell 7590 tests) so percentage of screens that can fulfill Apple hardware requirements is much lower so overall unit cost is much higher than in competitor products (Dell or Lenovo does not worry about delta color errors, brightness uniformity/ light leakage etc. which is visible in almost every test where panel is focused only on brightness and maybe contrast ratio).

Neither much shorter battery life nor severe color errors seem to be an issue for apple’s switch to OLED for iPhones.

How far outside the window? You may want to try going to an Apple Store and pleading your case.

Apple stores listen to you? Or they just tell you to upgrade & offer .10cents on the dollar for a trade ?

I’ve had extremely good customer service at Apple Stores. As have many others.
