The new Apple MacBook Pro were announced yesterday with great anticipation. No one can deny that there is an evolution in the new ultrabooks of the apple company that are remarkable but also other decisions that have created controversy. In the following lines we are going to detail the 6 most remarkable elements of the new generation MacBook Pro.
Thunderbolt 3 USB ports on MacBook Pro
Whichever peripheral we connect to the equipment, an external disk, a monitor, charger, etc., it will always have the adequate power to make it work (up to 100 W).
Goodbye to MacBook Air
When the MacBook Pro 13 quickly hit the scene, it was compared to the Air "It's thinner than the MacBook Air" . What would be the point of continuing to launch a MacBook Air at this point? Apple seems to have made it clear without saying it.
The Magsafe connector will no longer be used
The connector that was used from the first MacBook is going to be replaced by USB-C. The Magsafe was magnetically connected to the Macbook and easily disconnected to avoid tripping over the cable and the computer falling to the ground.
The evolution of the 'Escape' key
The 'Escape' key will now no longer be a physical key and will be part of the new 'Touch Bar' that was added in the MacBook Pro. The key will not always be available, since it will depend on the image and application that we have active in that moment.
A fixed SSD memory in the equipment
The MacBook Pro has SSD memory that is soldered on the motherboard, so you can never increase the amount of storage memory internally. So before purchasing one of these equipments, you will have to take into account its capacity.
You will not be able to charge your iPhone as before
The new MacBook Pro will not let you charge your iPhone in the traditional way, now you must have an adapter or a special cable (which Apple sells) with a Lightning port and USB Type-C connector.
