What if it comes with an iOS module where it can run iOS apps AND MacOS apps, thus one processor for each...
Lol... I'll see myself out.

Finally some rumors....Macrumors
.I have a hard time believing bad battery life. When he means bad does he mean worse than the current ones? How is that possible? This report is very conflicting with what we have heard thus far.
I started in the waiting for Broadwell thread in 03/2015, and have been following this thread since 05/14/2015, page 10. Unbelievable I read all 1011 pages, and unbelievable I waited through six Apple events.
This sounds a lot like a possible 13" Macbook Air. Although it sound more like complete bullsh**.
I doubt that too, because battery life is so important.
he didn't say much about it, just mentioned the battery life is not good. but you know, it maybe just a "rumor".
I wonder what will be revealed 1st: the Nintendo NX or the new MacBook Pro? Was Tim Cook not satisfied with us reaching 1000 pages?
If you translate (I used Google translate as you can translate text on an image) the picture he posted it said twice the battery has blown up.
Here is the translation although not a very great one.
Accidental encounter between a man Quanta, Quanta do not know, please Baidu, happens to do mbp. Made in the workshop. Landlord computer almost scrapped, he just told some news, FY know there are people so impatient, they share it. Popular first know the exact release date, I am not a party uncle Apple relatives classmate party party, a chance to really just happened to know this plant in Costa Rica, so please behave points. Personal feeling manufacturers new message flow from the grassroots supply chain or foundry message out than the absolute upper reliable flow out, of course, except for the upper Apple headquarters anyway. Although I do not know the specific release time, but the landlord is the undergraduate school of management, so the relevant factory inventory management have some understanding of what can be put into operation in accordance with well-founded knowledge about the situation foundries Published Bjo indeed currently taking, Abrasives with a 100% change, this man is responsible only for 13, 13 currently in volume production, they plant three production lines, Nissan to 3000, the mill has changed, the biggest feature is 13, not 100% sure touch ID and OLED Bar, CPU is the sky, a total of three holes in a headset on, there are headphone jack, two type C. This weeks before mass production, the battery does redesigned, last week when the pilot before mass pro 13 battery has two explosion, leading to some slow-paced, but according to him recently adjusted, but also no accident, and have mass production. Because the landlord often water WF, so the other day there was a pro FY claimed that in addition to the two, as well as with a fan of Macbook pro 13 is not to be released in October of 100% (also in the Mac version of the message it was said Sure pro hair is not made, the new ten lip ㄧ stop, originally 9a Pro E- E7 13 of the original post seems to be so? I forgot, probably such a meaning, so I'm afraid the factory brother mistake, he said he was not mistaken, they are pro 1,310,096 of this, the body has a pro and instructions printed is absolutely pro, so, if you really are only two typeC, it really is .... ..... anyway, I was absolutely speechless about 15, I was most concerned about, so I asked him, after all he was not doing 15, he said there are 15 department colleagues have seen, he says he is not currently say around
Definitely sounds like MacBook Air. Kuo and Gurman all but confirmed Touch bar for the MBP. Though I do agree that they probably wont ship in October. They might be announced next month, but wont ship until November.
Or March as I have been saying all along. There are not enough products to support an event. They won't release a new product with just a press conference. So we are for march or if Tim is more stupid than he looks then June.
Apple already missed the boat for back to college, I hope they are not planning to miss the holiday season as well.
They're still dizzy just dreaming of all that revenue from unnecessary removal of the headphone jack and that they actually got away with it.
But rMBP 13 could or should use Kaby Lake CPU...
At the end if this is true that will be another epic fail for Apple!!!
This is exactly the Skylake update I hoped for. No bs, plain but functional upgrade.
Sounds too logical and pro-catering to be true
From what I've understood of this gibberish, that reads like some **** a retard in kindergarten wrote, theres a fanless MacBook Pro or MacBook or whatever these ******* are gonna call it. MBP cant be fanless...its just not possible. This is most likely the Air, or what I believe to be the larger variant of the rMB. Thats why instead of one USB C it has 2. This makes complete sense. And Im happy because that means itll be a Retina screen instead of the **** TN Display panel on the Airs. I may consider this a purchasing option, if they completely bomb the OLED bar like they did 3D Touch (imo). Although Touch ID would have been good in all models.
[doublepost=1474522341][/doublepost]
You could be right. They could release the MBP in March/June. But I think they might release the larger variant of the rMB or updated MBA in October. So we may not see those MBP this year altogether, but I have a feeling we're going to see some kind of Mac this year.

good points as the 13" laptop was rumoured a while back and there was confusion if it was a MBP or not. I think you could be right on your assumptions and maybe the computer for me, we will see. Otherwise it will be back on the 13" pro wait.........
Dude.. no. Please. Stop.
stop with the damn kabylake sh**. people are tired of explaining why there won't be kabylake macbook pros this year and to those asking why should start reading back 500 pages and stop asking worthless questions
I can read chinese, I try to translate it here, and sorry for my English..
I met a friend who works in Quanda, if you don't know Quanda please search it using Baidu(similar with google).
he is working on the MBP in the workshop. my computer is almost scraped. he just told me some message,
I know many FY(guys with same interest about Apple products, met in a forum - weiphone.com, like us in this thread.) are tired of waiting, I share these messages here.
First, I don't know the exactly release date, I am not the one whoes closest people works in Qunda, I just made a friend with this guy, blabla..
personally I think the message from foundation supply chain or OEM is more reliable, blabla...
the mold is changed, 100% confirmed. this guy is in charging of MBP13, and currently the MBP13 is in volume production stage, they have 3 product lines and could produce 3000+ aday, mold is changed, the biggest feature of MBP13 is thinner, but battery life is bad (or not good), no touch ID and OLED Bar,100% confirmed. the CPU is skylake, 1 headphone jack, yes there is headphone jack, 2 Type C. the battery is redesigned, and 2 explosion happened in the week before last week during the pilot production, which slow down the produce. however he said the problem was fixed now and volume production is started.
I often visit this forum, and several days ago, a guy here said that beside the MBP13 and MBP15, there is another 13 inch MacBook(with fan, not pro) will be released at Oct. (I remember he said that this 13 inch MacBook was planed to be released at Sep. but was cancelled at the last moment, and it would be released at Oct.) so I double confirmed with the guy working in Quanda, was he talking about the MBP 13 or the 13-inch new MB ? he said it's MBP13 definitly, because there is "pro" printed in the mac body. If there is only 2 Type C, I would be so upset and have nothing to say. As for MBP15, I asked him some question too, but he is not in charging of MBP15, he just heard from his colleague that there is touch ID and OLED Bar for MBP15, but he didn't know anybody who was working on the MBP15, so he think the MBP15 is still in pilot production stage.
Ah that makes sense now. I guess they're differentiating the 13 and 15 like they do with the iPhone 4.7 and 5.5. Advanced features on the larger model. I think we might see a MacBook Pro and MacBook Pro Plus moniker used. I dont really care for OLED Bar, but no Touch ID hurts a bit. If this is true, Im pretty happy - personally because I think the rMB is really sleek.
