Apple will release a new MacBook Pro with a 16-inch screen this September according to a new report, making it the firm's biggest laptop in years.
The new laptop will reportedly have an LCD screen with a resolution of 3,072 by 1,920 and is said to be getting a processor upgrade as well. At 16 inches, it would be the largest MacBook Pro Apple offers — andsince the 2011 MacBook Pro, which offered the option of a 17-inch screen.
It's not the first time we've heard that Apple is planning to release a 16-inch MacBook Pro. Back in February, TF International Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo reported that the company would launch a 16-inch MacBook Pro sometime this year, although he did not specify a timeframe.Apple currently sells the MacBook Pro in 13.3-inch and 15.4-inch screen sizes.
Apple has always positioned its Pro laptops as being ideal for those who are using their computer for more than just web browsing and word processing and are in need of a high-performance machine. With that in mind, it makes sense that Apple would release a larger version with more screen space that it could market toward professional photo and video editors.
