Bloomberg‘s report reiterates much of what we already know about the 16-inch MacBook Pro. The machine will reportedly include a brighter 16-inch display and a more reliable keyboard, with today’s report calling it the “first major update to the MacBook Pro line” since the Touch Bar revision three years ago.
In terms of price, the report says the 16-inch MacBook Pro will cost “about the same” as the 15-inch model, which starts at $2,399. The 16-inch MacBook Pro will “replace the current 15-inch model,” the report says.
In addition to supply chain reports, recent macOS releases have provided glimpses at what to expect from the 16-inch MacBook Pro.
macOS Catalina contained a hardware icon showing a MacBook Pro with slightly smaller bezels, which corroborates reports that the 16-inch MacBook Pro will be close to the same physical size as the 15–inch MacBook Pro.
Bloomberg also says the new Mac Pro will likely go on sale in December. Apple has promised a release during the fall, which runs until December 21.
