We’ve been wondering for some time what Apple will do with the entry-level MacBook Pro, which is still using 2020’s M1 chip despite its 14-inch and 16-inch siblings upgrading to the M1 Pro and M1 Max. Now, Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman has revealed what Apple plans to do.
However, it’s likely it won’t be able to rival the M1 Pro and M1 Max in terms of power, and that shouldn’t be a surprise considering the laptop’s entry-level positioning. Like the more powerful MacBook Pro models, though, the M2 edition will allegedly drop the Touch Bar once and for all. If that pans out, it’s would be interesting to see Apple keep the 13-inch MacBook Pro around rather than, say, launching a more affordable 14-inch MacBook Pro. Right now, Apple’s high-end laptop range comes in three different sizes — a potentially confusing situation — and this latest development would do nothing to change that.
What about Face ID? Speaking of Apple’s all-in-one computer, Gurman believes Apple considered adding Face ID to the 24-inch iMac when it underwent its total overhaul in 2021. According to Gurman, “Face ID was in the cards for the original M1 iMac. Naturally, the iMac is the thickest Mac with a built-in display since Apple’s laptops have fairly thin screens.”
