The new MacBook Pro - Who's excited?

[Abu Khadija]

I have a late 2013 15" rMBP with the dedicated graphics card. It'll be 3 years old in February 2017. Not in need of a new one now that I have a 9.7" ipad pro and looking on buying a 12.9" one soon or waiting for the 2nd generation to be released. It looks to me like you can charge the macbook in any of the thunderbolt slots.

One question though, why did they throw the lighted apple?

Probably to unify the look among Apple's devices (iPhone, iPad, etc.), but I have to admit I loved the lighted one.

I'm so excited that I just can't hide it.

 

[Abu Khadija]

You would of thought they would of had one thing to stand out among their devices. But i guess that's what the airpods are for.

I'm excited to purchase it. My cousin threw my current 2014 Macbook on the floor and it's all ugly now so I want a new one

 

[TurboTiger]

For me it was sticker shock.
I'm happy for you guys getting one
Good Luck

I wait to try it out at the Apple Store to see if I even like it! But with no direct input/output plugins, it make it hard to buy!

I think Touch Bar will be so distracting. I'm gonna stick with the regular 13-inch pro.

I'm eager to see how useful is the touch bar and if it becomes distracting. Besides that, I really like the new MacBook.

After seeing the keynote, I am so glad I bought a 2015 15" MBP a year ago in June. It has all the ports I want PLUS an SD card slot so that I can load my iTunes music onto it to use on my S7 Edge and I don't need any extra adapters to plug in my iPhone 6S/6S+ to it to sync. Even the two month old iPhone 7 will need an adapter to work with the new MBP.

Maybe they can use THIS song for the Apple commercial you produce...

I'm pretty pumped, ordered a 13" with touchbar on Saturday. It's pretty much exactly what I was looking for. The price made me pause for a minute, but in the end there's still nothing comparable. It'll be replacing my 2010 MBP, so i'll be getting a much faster, smaller machine with a gorgeous screen.

To be honest most new Mac releases don't overly excite me but this new one coming out has got me amped up, the new touch bar feature looks so cool and the design is very sleek per usual. Can't wait!

 

[Baltiervaan]

me!! i wanna try that touch bar and confirm how awesome it is when i do 3d modeling and photo editing.

Oh, DEFINITELY sticker shock. I think I'm going to wait a while or pick up an older model.

New MacBook Pro 15 "does everything you put him not to run short of anything !!!!

 

[sergeykrasilnik]

Can I use apple pencil to draw on a trackpad to create drawings in new Macbook Pro?

 

[ElenaCanada]

I'm excited! It is so nice. I just wish it wasn't so darned expensive!

 

[sergeykrasilnik]

I'm excited about new 13 inch without TouchBar. I just think it'll be very distracting. But maybe I'm wrong, I haven't tried it yet.

 

[pkcable]

Might wait for the next sale.
