MacBook Pro 2016 release date, specs rumors update: Announcement will happen at the WWDC in June?
Apple's MacBook Pro 2016 has been in the rumor mill for quite some time now. Although details of the upcoming device has yet to be announced by the Cupertino-based tech giant, fans and critics have already provided their own idea about what to expect on the new laptop once it hits the market. New rumors about the device suggest that it will be rolled out before the second quarter of this year ends.
According to Digitimes, the ultra-thin 13- and 15-inch MacBook laptops will finally be released. The website also added that Apple's competitors such as Dell and Lenovo are already planning their own release to compete with Apple's highly anticipated device.
Meanwhile, International Business Times suggests that the laptop will come in three different versions—12-inches, 13 inches and 15 inches.
Many fans have been disappointed that Apple did not reveal the MacBook Pro 2016 in the company's "Loop You In" event on Mar 21. Nevertheless, rumors about the device's specs are already out and it is nothing but impressive.
The new MacBook Pro 2016 is said to come in a sleek design with ultra-thin feature, which is quite similar to its 2015 12-inch version. Reports also suggest that Apple will use Intel's newest chipset, the Skylake. The new processor is allegedly being used by other makers such as Dell, Microsoft and HP on their newest projects. Fans will also appreciate the multiple USB ports, which has been the request of many Apple followers for years now.
The MacBook Pro 2016 will also carry a bigger storage capacity compared to its predecessor. Rumor has it that it will have a 256 internal storage system.
Although nothing is set on stone as of the moment, it is expected that Apple will finally announce the much awaited line of the series in June 2016 at the World Wide Developers Conference or WWDC.
