Apple unveils three new MacBook Pro models starting at $1,499

27 October 2016
As expected, Apple finally announced some new MacBooks at its special event today. The MacBook Pro line has received a much needed refresh. The new MacBook Pro laptops still come in 13" and 15" sizes, though this time you can choose between silver and gray as colors. They're made from aluminum, even more this time around than in the previous design.

    Core i7 6th gen, 1TB HDD, gtx 1060 6gb, 17" 1080 panel, customizable keyboard lighting, usb 3.1 / thunderbolt... this is the starting cost model for a gaming laptop which is $1,499. a lot cheaper and way better specs than the most expensive macbook pro to date. Mac OS is not that great to make people buy macbooks. apple needs to rethink their pricing strategy.

            On apple web says the RAM is LPDDR3, not DDR4. Don't know why if they put a Skylake processor didn't use DDR4 memories with higher bandwidth and a lower power consumption.

              Apparently "innovation" is copying what Lenovo already did (in the past) with their Thinkpad X1 series. And the reason it failed is quite obvious, no amount of animation or vibration replaces the touch-and-feal of a real key -- you know, the one you can find and type even with your eyes closed/looking elsewhere.

              Their use-cases would be solved much better by a touch-screen, you know, like all high-end PCs today already offer (at bare least) as an option!

              Finally, can a product that doesn't have the function keys row really be called "Pro"?

                everyone hating it and yet most of you will end up buying it anyway because of the "apple is the best" type of inspiring bullshit. sorry had to say this.

                        Very nice and should be super fast. The Iris graphics are surprisingly capable...I run games via bootcamp like dark souls 3, lords of the fallen, final fantasy 13/13-2/LR, fallout 4, dragon's dogma ect (with graphics set to medium) without any problems on a MacBook Pro Retina mid 2014 (Intel Iris Pro) so I imagine that these new models will be even more capable. Gaming aside, the design is beautiful and Mac OS Sierra is a joy to use. Worth it. Well done Apple.

                                  Do Apple fans still moan about burn-in, when they have an oled watch and an oled touch panel? Oh wait, they're already salivating for the oled display in the next iPhone.
