Apple’s second fall conference will be on stage at 1 am on the 19th East Asian time; outsiders predict that the protagonist this time will be the latest MacBook Pro equipped with the M1X chip.
According to the latest news, in addition to expanding the screen to the extreme edge, the latest MacBook Pro may be equipped with the “notch” design from the iPhone X, and new colors are available.
According to a foreign media “MacRumors” report, some people recently claimed to have obtained news from the supply chain on Weibo and exposed the unreleased MacBook Pro.
It can be seen from the photo that the frame of the MacBook Pro narrows, the screen expands to the extreme edge, and the “notch” added from the iPhone X appears at the top of the screen.
It is reported that this is to expand the laptop’s full-screen ratio, with a high-quality “FaceTime lens” that is expected to reach 1080p, and a “True Tone sensor” that automatically detects the brightness of the environment.
Although notch is not used to support Face ID face unlocking, and most fans seem to dislike “notch”, due to the user interface design of macOS, there is often a blank design in the middle of the upper menu bar.
The left side is for the opened application menu, and the right side is the time, input status bar, etc. Therefore, compared to the iPhone, notch obstructs the laptop’s visual experience should be less.
Although it is impossible to determine the authenticity of the revelation, foreign media estimates that Apple will launch two 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pros with M1X chips. The colors are in addition to the original gold, silver, and space gray.
Two new colors, “Starlight” and “Midnight” are expected to be added this year, but Touch ID fingerprint recognition is still used.
As for hardware upgrades, there are M1X chip, Mini LED screen, built-in memory and storage capacity increase, as well as HDMI, MagSafe charging port, SD card reader and other expansion interfaces.
