Industry experts and Apple enthusiasts are speculating that MacBook Pro 2016 will likely debut this year. However, most fans wonder how this laptop will be powered from the inside. According to a report by Forbes, there will be many significant improvements that the fans can expect to see in this much awaited Apple machine. In fact, Ming Chi-Kuo, the most trusted Apple analyst, claims that the next MacBook Pro will be "the most significant upgrade ever taken by Apple".
By now, almost everyone who is closely following MacBook Pro updates will know that the new laptop will be much slimmer and lighter than its predecessors.
There is also rumor that the MacBook Pro will replace its function keys with touch panel, running along top section of the keyboard. Meanwhile, another rumor suggests that upcoming MacBook will also feature its biometric Touch ID.
But the question is, what will new MacBook pack under the hood to fitfully become the most awaited laptop of this year? Rumor has it that MacBook Pro will feature Kaby Lake processor in its upcoming laptop.
As confirmed by Intel CEO, Brian Krzanich, the company is already shipping its new processors to their customers and OEMs, as reported by MacRumors. Based on this revelation, many wonder if MacBook Pro 2016 will debut in fall, along with other Kaby Lake powered machines. Besides, the improved Kaby Lake CPU architecture will dramatically enhance the graphics and chipset ecosystem, fitting Apple's product description to the tee.
While rumors indicate a possible launch anytime between October and November, Apple is clearly focusing more on its iPhones as they sell more and bring in more profits. However, the buzz around MacBook Pro refuses to die, even though there is significant lack of credible information. But, if industry experts are correct in their analysis, the upcoming Apple laptop will certainly be a game changer.
