a lot more powerful than the last one and a lot of users are excited.
The new MacBook Pro comes with features not found before on previous ones; these include a new Touch Bar and Touch ID authentication.
The biggest feature of the new MacBook Pro is the Touch Bar that changes replaces the regular function keys. It’s has a Retina display and available touch keys change based on the application you are using. Apple demonstrated this with several programs like Office, Photoshop and Pixelmator.
If you’re browsing photos, swiping the Touch Bar navigates between images. Developers can customize the experience and program what to appear in the Touch Bar while building apps for Mac OS.
The Touch Bar also supports Touch ID. This technology which is present in the iPhone and iPad secures the new MacBook with fingerprint and also lets you make payments via Apple Pay.
The rumor published earlier this month turns out to be true. It doesn’t come with the traditional USB port found on all laptops. As a matter of of fact, you need an adapter to be able to charge your iPhone through USB. MacBook Pro now comes with 3-4 Thunderbolt 3 ports. Old chargers won’t work anymore as Apple has also gotten rid of MagSafe. However, you still have the earphone jack.
