  Apple inflicted three multi-year disasters on its own MacBook lineup. Hopefully the end nears. 1. The Touch Bar, costing customers hundreds of dollars for something they didn't want 2. Providing only USB-C ports so you can't sync and charge your iPhone 3. The butterfly keyboard h…

  New story: For new high-end 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pros, Apple indeed plans return of MagSafe, the end of the Touch Bar (finally), brighter screens, minor design changes, next-gen M-series chips and more. Launch around mid-2021. https://www.bloomberg.com/...

  This is Apple saying fuck you to people who bought the Touchbar MacBooks https://twitter.com/...

• @mountdiscovery Chirayu Patel on x

  Apple firing on all cylinders. Looking forward to the new design as since 2016, MacBooks were hindered with keyboard reliability, ran hot and had incremental perf. With no more reliance on Intel,& complete control of hardware/software, the next gen ARM Macs will be something. htt…

  NO TOUCH BAR???!! 😍 I've been looking to get an M1 laptop for myself (keep stealing Jamie's 😂), and legit, the one Touch Bar on the Air vs the Pro is worth the light drop in both battery and screen nits no contest. https://twitter.com/...

  I keep accidentally clicking on the Touch Bar in my Macbook Pro - good-riddance! https://twitter.com/...

  If half of those rumours about the future of MacBook Pro are true, they are going to be the best laptops ever... again https://www.macrumors.com/...

  Completely flat MacBook Pros could look very weird. I'm probably just scared of change though. https://www.macrumors.com/... https://twitter.com/...

• @quinnypig Corey Quinn on x

  Everyone loves these changes but they're basically “rolling back the things that made them suck for the past five years” in many ways. https://twitter.com/...

  High spec 16" MacBook pro with no touch bar, more ports, and old magsafe charger. I'm hopeful we can finally consider the last 5 years of Apple laptop design a closed chapter. https://twitter.com/...

  Data point: son loves the Touch Bar for when he's doing video editing and needs to scrub. (I don't think he'd want to use a mouse though I guess that would be the option.) https://twitter.com/...

  Am I the only one who will miss the Touch Bar? I use it all the time in Keynote and Illustrator. https://twitter.com/...

  Apple should allow you to trade every POS touchbar MacBook for a brand new one, free of charge, regardless of age. https://twitter.com/...

  Expected to debut in Q32021 I wonder 💭 whether I should persist with my 2014 MBP for another 6-8 months .. 🤔 https://twitter.com/...

• @stroughtonsmith Steve Troughton-Smith on x

  This sounds like Apple is undoing the last 5 years of unpopular MacBook Pro design decisions 😲 https://twitter.com/...

• @simonbs Simon B. Stvring on x

  I like everything about this, except the “released in the third quarter” part. https://twitter.com/...

• @mybest_j @mybest_j on x

  Apple finally undoing the mistakes of the awful MBPs with butterfly, Touch Bar, all USB-C, no MagSafe https://twitter.com/...

• @stevestreeting Steve Streeting on x

  Undoing all the design missteps on the MBP since 2015 would be a step in the right direction. https://twitter.com/...

  Apple ditching basically everything that was controversial about the 2016- MacBook Pro series? https://9to5mac.com/...
