When are the late 2010 Macbook Pros expected to release?

[NityanandaSCSM]

It was last updated in April, 2010.

Have there been any rumors I missed?
We are waiting to update our computers hoping for a September or October release, does that seem likely?




I couldnt find the "macbook pro expected release date" subforum/thread so I posted here, Mods feel free to move it.

Who said that there are going to be Late 2010 MacBook Pro's?

There haven't been any rumors yet.

Late 2010?

MBPs have been updated in 8-9 months so there is a great chance that it will be early 2011. I just wish they wait and use Sandy Bridge and don't update them with old chips just before the release of SB

Like Apple are gonna jump to using new architecture straight away, pfft

They won't put Sandy bridge in anything until at least mid 2011

I think January/February 2011 if they keep the pattern.

There have been some rumors of cpu speed bump on the MBPs with i7 cores later this year, as per this thread.

Nobody wants 133MHz CPU bump when you have an option for totally new micro-architecture with much more significant performance increase

+1

 

[elpmas]

i say early 2011
right now is the time for ipods/itv

 

[iggypod]

2011. Definitely maybe.

 

[Sneakz]

2011 for sure. What we have now is it for 2010. Whether it'll be early or mid 2011, no clue.

i think it is about time for the: "[Sticky] [Official] *Still* waiting for arrandale MBP13 thread"

whenever that will be. I am still waiting for those to appear, although i have almost ordered a mid2010 version about a kazillion times now, always emptying my basket at the last moment.

i dont think we will se a 13" with arrandale. my guess is they will wait for sandy bridge or maybe do the jump to AMD and use one of their Lliano fusion cpu's.

Seeing the current ones are the Mid 2010 MacBook Pros there won't be a Late 2010 MacBook Pro.

More like Late 2011 or 2012.

 

[Kavier]

Don't think we'll see an update until 2011.

 

[NityanandaSCSM]

Darn. I hope it happens anyway but you have successfully killed my dreams.
What about this comment from the before mentioned thread:

"70 days 'til average refresh and 10 months for longest refresh so between November-February"

November doesn't seem like a possibility?

hypothetically Apple may update it as early as November, however it is more likely to be February

True, but if it's between a 2.66 i7 and a 2.8 i7, it's more than a 133 MHz bump in speed--it's a LOT more refined/optimized silicon in the 2.8, since Intel themselves have said they have a lot more work to do with the silicon in the current core iX line. The 2.8 would be worth the wait over the 2.66 for that.

Apple generally updates every 8 or so months, but don't discount the small speed bumps they occasionally do mid-cycle in those eight months; this means we are about due for that 2.8 GHz chip as soon as Intel starts putting them out for sale.

I would buy 2.8GHz refresh IF it also got an IPS display.

IIRC the MBPs are too thin for IPS
