Here are some of the features, functions, and other new things we expect in the next generation of MacBook Pro.
Apple released its latest generation of MacBook pro in October 2021 and another model with an M2 chip during WWDC in 2022. The new models landed on the market with a lot of new features, but the company with the bitten apple logo must continue to innovate and introduce new features, characteristics, and features in its future laptops to continue to amaze Mac users.
But what does Apple need to incorporate into its next MacBook Pro lineup? In this article, we will highlight what are all the hardware and design news that the Cupertino firm should implement in its future MacBook Pro. And they could be presented sooner than we think!
All the news we hope to see in future MacBook Pro
Notchless design
Apple inserts a small “notch” or frame in the top area of its iPhone and MacBook bezels to enclose all the necessary hardware components for facial recognition technology and cameras.
It would be a success if the company managed to manage to continue offering all sales of Face ID and the FaceTime camera reducing the size of the bezels of your MacBook Pro in order to provide a much more elegant and minimalist design.
5G connectivity
This is one of the most useful features that could come to the MacBook Pro line of laptops. It is especially useful for all those users who need to take their MacBook Pro to work or simply for all those who want to buy a MacBook to study.
The possibility of being able to count on a mobile data connection – and even more so if it is a connection with the speed of 5G connectivity – is of vital importance for MacBook Pro users. After all, we are talking about a technology which is already present in other products of the Apple ecosystem such as the iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch.
FaceTime HD camera improvements
Now you can use your iPhone as a webcam with macOS Ventura thanks to the Continuity feature
Many Mac users use their MacBook Pro for study and for work. This entails a lot of teleworking and, of course, many meetings by videoconference. So it would be interesting if Apple introduces some improvements to your FaceTime HD cameras of MacBook Pro.
The FaceTime camera on current MacBook Pro models has very poor image quality for such an expensive device. Apple’s solution is the Continuity Camera, a feature of iOS 16 and macOS 16 that allows the iPhone to be used as a kind of webcam for MacBook. It is not a solution up to Apple. We would like more sharpness, more contrast, more vivid colors and superior quality in low light conditions. And why not a 4K FaceTime camera? For asking not to stay!
The return of the Touch Bar
The Touch Bar on MacBook Pro offers a wide selection of features to maximize productivity
The Touch Bar was one of the most representative elements of the MacBook Pro laptops. For those who are not familiar with this element, it is a thin touch surface located on the top of the MacBook Pro keyboard that offers very interesting functions such as shortcuts, emojis, volume control, brightness control, corrections and much more.
Unfortunately, Apple decided to remove the Touch Bar from its MacBook Pro and it is most likely that we will not see it again in future generations. But as an active MacBook Pro user, I can assure you that it is one of the most useful and versatile elements of the laptop. It saves a lot of time and, let’s face it, using it is pretty cool.
So we’d love to see Apple re-implement a Touch Bar in future MacBook Pro models. Now, its return should be accompanied by many improvements, especially at the software level, so that users can decide if they prefer to use the “F1, F2, F3…” keys and so that they can more precisely customize all the panels, buttons and functions in each of the applications in which the Touch Bar is available.
These are the improvements that we hope that Apple incorporates in its MacBook Pro of the future. Although that future could be closer than we all imagine. Keep in mind that the latest generation of MacBook Pro models with 14-inch and 16-inch screen were presented in October 2021. In addition, Apple will soon hold a special event in which they will present the new iPhone 14 and the Apple Watch Series 8 through streaming from Apple Park on September 7.
At this event, Apple could surprise everyone and present new MacBook Pro models. Although it will most likely happen at another event in October. Of course, how could it be otherwise, from iPadízate we will carry out extensive coverage of the event so that you do not miss a single detail of all the news.
