The hottest rumors right now is that Apple is hard at work on the MacBook Pro 2016, and it's been speculated that this time around, the upgrades to the device would be more than just updated internals and a more slender appearance.
Rumors and leaks about the anticipated notebook have been more than generous online, and to ensure everybody's up to speed about what could be in store, here's a roundup of the talks that are swirling.
2016 MacBook Pro Appearance
The new 2016 MacBook Pro is shedding off more weight to become significantly thinner, according to reliable KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. To do just that, Apple is allegedly going to use specialized pivots to make it possible. The brand is said to unveil two models of the MacBook Pro in 13 and 15-inch variations.
One of the best features that's coming to the device is the rumored OLED display touch bar, which is said to take the place of the familiar F key functions above the number keys of the keyboard. On top of that, the touch OLED bar is believed to be completely customizable as well, where users can set the functions to open applications such as Spotify, or appoint volume controls to different keys aside from the defaults.
2016 MacBook Pro Release Date
The next MacBook Pro models could be announced and take off in October if Gurman's forecast is anything to go by. At any rate, the new lineup will soon hit shelves in due time. However, the apple fans are speculating that the device might very well make an appearance in Apple's September 9 event, where the tech giant will unveil the iPhone 7.
That's about it for the roundup. Keep in mind that since these details are incorporated from leaks and rumors, they should be taken with a grain of salt. If anything, they give a good idea of how the upcoming Apple-branded laptops will end up being.
With everything said and done, what do you think about the rumors about the 2016 MacBook Pro? It's certainly a sight to behold. Only time will tell.
