New Retina Macbook Pro 2016: fitter, happier, more productiveДЇaster is a given, a better battery is almost certain. This would theoretically replace the now-defunctВ Thunderbolt Display of yesteryear. ThatвЂ™s why, in June, sources told Buzzfeed reporter John Paczkowski that Apple is working on a 5K external display complete with its own integrated graphics chipВ to handle the stream. However, one thing Skylake canвЂ™t do is output 5K resolutions over a single cable stream.

DonвЂ™t expect those features to be enabled in this yearвЂ™s notebooks, but theyвЂ™re likely to turn up in future iterations. Skylake has some other tricks up its silicon sleeve including support for WiGig and WiDi short-range, high-speed data transfer as well as wireless charging. Moving the MacBook Pro to Skylake should deliver massive speed improvements across the range as well as better battery life.

The move to Skylake processors should be more significant than the move to Broadwell, as the latter was more about battery life and energy efficiency than performance.

The MacBook Pro is trailing PC rivals in the processor stakes: Dell and Microsoft have already moved to the sixth-generation Intel processors, but Apple is still on Broadwell and Haswell chips. New Retina Macbook Pro 2016: whatвЂ™s so special about Skylake? TheВ 13-inch non-Retina MacBook Pro, tucked away apologetically at the foot of AppleвЂ™s product page, surely canвЂ™t be long for this world come the updates weвЂ™d expect it to vanish in favour of a Retina 13-inch model instead.ДЄpple tends to keep its pricing similar between generations, so a ВЈ899 entry-level Pro with Retina display is likely to be the baby of the range. The current MacBook Pro range starts at ВЈ899 ($1,099) for the 13-inch non- Retina model, rising to ВЈ999 ($1,119) for the entry-level 13-inch Retina MacBook Pro and topping out at ВЈ1,999 ($2,099) for the 2.5GHz 15-inch Retina. The 2016 MacBook Pros (and perhaps the next MacBook Airs) may even arrive in the arrangement of new color variants, akin to its12-inch sibling, including Gold, Space Gray and Rose Gold. Reports suggest that the new slim MacBooks will feature a quadruplet of USB-C ports, two on each side. Meanwhile, the 15-inch modelвЂ™s hinges are set to arrive in the third quarter of the year, making the Q4 2016 release window argument even more convincing. These hinges have purportedlyВ begun shipmentВ for the 13-inch MacBook Pro. Said to be inspired by MicrosoftвЂ™s Surface Pro line of devices, the hinges are apparently being manufactured by Amphenol, who makes hinges for MicrosoftвЂ™s convertible tablet. It reckons they will feature hinges produced using a mechanism called вЂmetal injection moldingвЂ™.

So even if there is a new MacBook Pro in the works, it took a backseat toВ iOSВ andВ OS Xamendments.ДЄccording to one report by Digitizes, Apple is gearing up to releaseВ new 13- and 15-inch MacBooksВ in the second half of 2016, specifically the last quarter.

However, as reports had previously suggested, this yearвЂ™s conference focused primarily on introducing new software updates rather than hardware. We expected to see the newВ MacBook ProВ 2016 at AppleвЂ™s annual developer event, WWDC, this June. The biggest change is likely to be in the ProsвЂ™ processors, and while there are rumours of detachable touchscreens weвЂ™d take them with a hefty pinch of salt.ДЄppearing more and more likely, though, is that a small, OLED display will take the place of the MacBook ProвЂ™s function keys in its 2016 revision. (Apple has yet to officially announce the date.)ДЄppleвЂ™s MacBook Pro range hasnвЂ™t been updated for some time: theВ 13-inch MacBook Pro with RetinaВ was refreshed in March 2015 and the 15-inch in May. The New Retina Macbook Pro 2016 is slated for release just before the holiday shopping season in the fourth quarter - if not earlier, in September, side by side another highly anticipated device, the iPhone 7.

Deemed the sleekest Apple laptop to date, this yearвЂ™s MacBook Pro, available in 13- and 15-inch models, is said to deploy:
