New documents from Apple suggest that the MacBook team are working on some radical ideas for future macOS laptops.
The second feels a little more futuristic and perhaps geared more towards a portable keyboard for the likes of the iPad Pro or an updated Magic Keyboard. This would allow a single key, or a block of keys, to be lifted out or slid away from the keyboard to act as a pointing device.
Imagine lifting out one of your sift keys to find that it's really a small mouse, or a rather stubby Apple Pencil… Given space is at a premium in any modern mobile device, you can see the advantage of having something physical have two different physical roles.... [+] Graham Civic Auditorium September 9, 2015 in San Francisco, California. Apple Inc. unveiled latest iterations of its smart phone, forecasted to be the 6S and 6S Plus and announced an update to its Apple TV set-top box. As with any patents, the fact that they have been published does not guarantee that any of the discussed features will make it to the public. What you can see is the direction that Apple is taking in terms of design thinking, especially as these are continuation patents which show continued work on an idea. In practice though, you have to look at the current MacBook Air and entry-level MacBook Pro and realise that these designs are six years old. Apple made a step forward with its laptop design when it released the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models in 2021, introducing larger screens and a more angular design. When the new MacBook Air and MacBook Pro models are launched later this year, they are expected to bring over the changes from the larger Pro laptops. Will there be more?
