SHARE

After a really long wait and endless rumours and leaks, the 2016 Apple MacBook Pro launched. We said that a new line of MacBook Pro will be launched in Q4 of 2016 and recently reported that the launch date is October 27 which turned out to be right. Apple was being constantly thrashed for not bringing any significant changes in the MacBook series. As a result, MacBook was left far behind its Windows counterparts. Yesterday, Apple launched the MacBook Pro with a total overhaul. The 2016 Apple MacBook Pro launched in three variants and you can pick one according to your taste and needs.

What else?

2016 Apple MacBook Pro Touch Bar
The highlight of the 2016 Apple MacBook Pro is definitely the Touch Bar and we can see why.

The USP of the new MacBooks will be the Touch Bar, which is like the 3D Touch one can find on an iPhone. To give a hint of how useful this innovation is, Apple paired with Adobe’s Photoshop and displayed how it enables full-screen editing by displaying hidden menu. The Touch Bar also houses the Touch ID which is sitting under the power button.

The support for Touch with the apps will available by the end of the year. There was no mention of the MacBook Air at all which probably means that the earlier rumours suggesting that the MacBook Air will be discontinued might be true.

Price and availability

The 2016 Apple MacBook Pro launched in the US and Europe only. Apple India website has listed them but they are not yet available. Do not worry as they have been listed with a tag of ‘coming soon’ on the page.

Apple India shows the 2016 Apple MacBook Pro as ‘coming soon.’

However, the base prices of the same are out. Take a look at the latest MacBook’s price in India :-

12-inch MacBook – Starting at Rs.92,810

13.3-inch MacBook Pro – Starting at Rs.1,29,900

13.3-inch MacBook Pro (with Touch Bar) – Starting at Rs.1,55,900

15-inch MacBook Pro (with Touch Bar) – Starting at Rs.2,05,900

In short, 2016 Apple MacBook Pro launched with much pomp and fanfare. Keeping in mind that Apple’s profit are going down for the first in all these years, the updated line of MacBooks could play an instrumental role in getting back some of the profits.
