Apple is preparing to release new 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models with more power-efficient mini-LED displays before the year is out, claims a...
I returned my miniLED and opted for an edge lit air instead, aside from zone control for HDR content the display was a downgrade in so many ways, insane flickering, gets weirdly dark near the edges, and even though the contrast is better anything not pitch black exhibits the same amount of IPS glow as an edge lit screen, but instead of being uniform it’s blotchy and weird and it tries to match the content at a crazy low resolution of like 50x50
Wake me up when we finally get OLED
Apple hasn’t historically announced iPads or new Macs at the iPhone event. They’ve typically done that at separate October events.
If they keep their existing ones, they will have 13, 14, 15, 16, and 17 inch laptops. That seems a bit inefficient from a manufacturing standpoint, doesn't it?
Apple changed the 13” and 15” MacBook Pros to 14” and 16” when they did their first redesign after introducing Apple Silicon. They kept one low-cost 13” model around using the old unibody Touch Bar design. They haven’t made a 17” MacBook Pro since 2009.
So right now it’s just 13”, 14”, and 16”. Two modern chassis and a legacy chassis taking advantage of existing manufacturing capabilities.
13 and 15 are air 14 and 16 are pros.
They released a 15 air this year. Frankly I would love a 11-12 MacBook.
Ah yeah, I hadn’t considered they meant across Apple’s entire laptop offerings.
It’s still a slightly odd observation to make. Apple’s famous in the industry for having a streamlined catalog. Most PC vendors have 4-5 brands/lines with 4-5 chassis in each.
