The iPhone SE was another smart move from Apple this year - hopefully, we continue to see many more 4-inch iPhones in the future, ideally with new designs and also some phone-specific features (why should larger iPhones get all the cool stuff like dual cameras?).Īside from the iPhone and iPad, though, Apple’s other products in 2016 weren’t so hot. The 9.7-inch iPad Pro was a good move, but the iPad still feels like it needs some new innovative features, and the price and functionality of iPad Pro-specific accessories leave much to be desired. In 2016, Apple showed the world that it's still deeply invested in the iPhone and iPad, but the future of other projects are still up in the air. Given the price of the computer, and all its drawbacks, this may be the first time many pro laptop customers will look outside Apple’s ecosystem. Apple advertised 10 hours of battery life, but many people have only managed to squeeze out 7 to 8 hours. But most importantly, the vast majority of MacBook Pro reviewers found Apple’s battery life claims to be inaccurate. People are also upset about the lack of an SD card slot, which saves pro photographers a lot of time transferring data from their cameras. Lots of people are upset that a “pro” laptop from Apple doesn’t have 32 GB of RAM, which is critical for intensive tasks like editing or rendering video ( Apple offered its own explanation for the absence). The MacBook Pro does have a few other nice additions, like Touch ID, but people have been largely critical of the laptop’s limitations. But these laptops are pricier than previous versions, likely due to the new touchscreen strip that replaces the function keys, which Apple calls the “Touch Bar.” While the Touch Bar is nifty, many reviewers found it not especially useful, either for regular people or the so-called “pro” market these computers are targeted at. It’s slim and sleek - the hallmarks of the MacBook line. Unfortunately, it’s not what people were hoping for.Īpple again nailed it in the looks department: The new MacBook Pro, which is available in 13-inch and 15-inch varieties, is beautiful to look at.
Lots of people were waiting for Apple to upgrade the MacBook Pro, and it finally happened in October.
