In November 2019, Apple confirmed the rumors that it had been around the industry for a while and was doing so by announcing the first MacBook Pro 16 ”. Now, all the attention is coming to the new MacBook Pro 13 ”.
There is a lot of speculation around Apple's next laptop in the Pro range. Will it have a big screen? Will the company improve the MacBook's battery independence in the 2020 model? Have you solved keyboard problems?
Don't miss all the information known so far about the new MacBook Pro, which could reach the market by 2020. We look at rumors about its release date, its price, its design, its details and its features.
Edit: When will the MacBook Pro 2020 be released?
If we pay attention to the details of DigiTimes, Apple will update its range of computers with the launch of the new 13 ”MacBook Pro model in the first half of 2020, which means we will get it soon.
Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo says Apple will release the new MacBook with a new keyboard with a scissor system by the second quarter of 2020, and this could be the new MacBook Pro 13 on release day in June. 2020.
Judging by Apple's trajectory, it may come soon. In May 2019, the app company launched two models with a 2.64 GHz processor, while the 13 ”input model was updated in July 2019.
Price: How much will the MacBook Pro 2020 cost?
It is unlikely that Apple will make changes to the price list for the MacBook Pros of 13 ”. Therefore, it is worth remembering the current prices of the four models sold on the company's website.
- 13 ”MacBook Pro with 1.4 GHz quad-core processor processor, Iris Plus Graphics 645 and 128 GB of storage: € 1,499
- 13 ”MacBook Pro with 1.4 GHz quad-core processor processor, Iris Plus Graphics 645 and 256 GB of storage: € 1,749
- 13 ”MacBook Pro with 2.4 GHz quad-core processor processor, Iris Plus Graphics 655 and 256 GB of storage: € 1,999
- 13 ”MacBook Pro with 2.4 GHz quad-core processor, Iris Plus Graphics 655 and 512 GB of storage: € 2,249
Design: What will the MacBook Pro 2020 look like?
The 16 ”MacBook Pro introduced some changes to the design during its launch last November. On the other hand, due to the smaller bezel, a larger screen was found. An upgraded keyboard is also included.
Below, you'll find all the rumors and leaks circulating that we might even see that change in the design of the new MacBook Pro 13 ”. Will Apple introduce a smaller model 13 ”?
Screen
If they were hoping Apple would introduce the 13 ”model with a larger screen, as it did with the 15” model, you should know that the company that was already managing them would deny the 14 ”model.
Working the same lines, DigiTimes said in a November 2019 report, in fact, the new MacBook Pro screen will still have the same 13.3 ”screen. That determines the possibility of reducing the bevel to fit the larger panel.
Keyboard
Another thing we can almost believe is that the new 13 ”MacBook Pro will have the same keyboard with the scissor system that we saw on the 16” model. This should solve the problems found on the previous model keyboard.
Advances in the new keyboard are amazing, and now it's best to type in it. Also, the arrow keys are different. Basically, the left and right buttons are smaller, which should make their position easier.
This same reason can explain the fact that there is a & # 39; Esc & # 39; The sensor ID sensor is also unique.
Details: What features will the MacBook Pro 2020 have?
We do not expect Apple to surprise a complete redesign by 2020 this year, but major changes are expected internally, especially in terms of promotion plans and storage options.
Generally, these are the definitions we can identify:
- 13 ”MacBook Pro with 1.4 GHz Intel i5 quad-core processor / 1.7 GHz quad-core Intel i7 (up to 3.6 GHz with Turbo Boost), Iris Plus Graphic 645, 8 GB / 16 GB LPDDR3 memory 2,133 MHz, 128 GB / 512 GB / 1 TB / 2 TB
- 13 ”MacBook Pro with 2.4 GHz Intel i5 quad-core processor / 2.8 GHz quad-core Intel i7 (up to 4.1 GHz with Turbo Boost), Iris Plus Graphic 655, 8 GB / 16 GB LPDDR3 memory 2,133 MHz, 256 GB / 1 TB / 2 TB
Processor
The 16 ”MacBook Pro has the same processor as the previous 15. Due to improvements in heat management and other problems they eventually encountered, the larger MacBook Pro gave better results in Gebenbench.
It is possible that the new Mac 13 Pro features a new generation of processors and that it is being passed on from the 8th generation solution to the other 9th generation, which Apple & # 39; s 16 ”currently has.
Another possibility is that the 10th generation of Intel processors will come with the 13 ”MacBook Pro, which we already see on other laptops. To be honest, this certainly isn't possible and let's see them first in the most powerful model.
Storage
The only change we would like to see in the new MacBook Pro is extra storage. 128 GB of the installation model is up, so we would like to see if 256 GB or 512 GB as standard and have a selection of 512 GB and 1 TB.
Battery
The MacBook Pro has a 100 W battery, the maximum allowed for aircraft. This large battery capacity of the Apple laptop makes its autonomy high again, now in use for 11 hours.
The 13 ”input model with a 1.4 GHz processor has a 58.2 W battery, and in the models with a 2.4 GHz processor, the battery is 58 W. Both models have a good battery life of 10 hours.
It is likely that Apple will learn how to achieve greater independence in 13 models ”, perhaps looking at how they have done in other models. The MacBook Air, for example, has a 49.9 W battery that lasts 12 hours.
Speakers and microphone
The 16 ”MacBook Pro comes with upgraded speakers, especially on bass, and has noise cancellation. With the new version, we can see these same changes even though they have not improved.
Face ID and webcam
Other changes we'd like to see are the 13 ”MacBook Pro on the SpaceTime camera. Currently, the webcam is still 720p, and the front camera of the iPhone 11 is a 12 MP lens and can record videos at 1080p.
In addition, the iPhone 11 series of the front camera features TrueDepth technology, which means it also offers FastID. This is something we would like to see on Apple laptops and could start with the new MacBook Pro 2020.
WiFi 6
Another feature with the iPhone 11, 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max is the WiFi 6 802.11ax. It is not yet available on any Mac computer or laptop, but we would like to see that soon. However, it will come as early as the 16 ”MacBook Pro.
Will there be a 16 ”update for the MacBook Pro by 2020?
In our opinion, the MacBook Pro 16 sold in November has plenty of room for improvement, albeit not because it doesn't include Intel 10-generation processors or WiFi 6.
That is why there is a chance that, with the new 13 ”MacBook Pro, Apple has decided to release a new 16” model by 2020. If so, there can be no doubt that, if guaranteed, this will frustrate the few who buy the 2019 model.
