Your thoughts on the next gen 13/14inch M1 MBP

[AndreRollins]

Do you think the next 13/14 inch Apple Silicon MBP will include more Thunderbolt ports? Do you believe it will be priced in the same range as the current 13 inch MBP? I am considering selling my current M1 when it does, and buying the new one if the price is right.

I'm in the same boat, and also very interested in this.

Yes, more TB ports, especially since it supports more than 1 external monitor.

Main reason I want the upgrade.

No. But I'll be in the market for a Mac Pro Mini or a Mac Mini Pro as soon as something of that nature becomes available.

This M1 MacBook Pro is everything I want from a laptop, and I'll keep using it until that changes. Even when I replace it, I'll probably keep it around as a reminder of Apple's transition to ARM, because I'm an ex-Acorn Archimedes user, and I've been waiting nearly twenty five years for something like this. For me, these first generation ARM machines are a piece of History.

Yes, yes and yes

It’ll be priced about the same as the current 13” Intel MacBook Pro not the price of the current 2 port M1 MacBook Pro.

Yeah, these rumors look amazing. Especially the return of MagSafe and real function keys.

Don't quite regret last year's M1 purchase yet, but it's getting there! I knew there would be more powerful models coming but I never thought they'd actually bring back Magsafe or ditch the Touch Bar on the Pro. If the rumors are true, the 14" really does sound like the perfect laptop IMO.

Donn't get your hopes up. After MagSafe has been rebranded as a iPhone charging solution, it looks very unlikely that it's coming back in the old form to the laptops. Touch Bar could go either way IMO.

If Kuo's recent report is correct my thoughts are they're all positive changes

It will have more ports because it will most likely replace the high-end 10nm Intel version.

But it will be out in Q3 2021, so it will be a long *ss wait.
