Overall, the late-2016 MacBook Pro 13-inch with Touch Bar is an accomplished machine dominating single-core tests, while unsurprisingly falling behind a quad-core i7 device like the Razer Blade in. MacRumors attracts a broad audience of both consumers and professionals interested in the latest technologies and products. We also boast an active community focused on purchasing decisions and technical aspects of the iPhone, iPod, iPad, and Mac platforms. For last 2 days I am not able to login to my MacBook Pro. It was working fine and suddenly for no reason after I last shutdown my mac I am not able to login. The mac starts up fine and goes to the login screen. After I enter my password the progress bar is stuck in 70%-80% and sometimes at 100%. I tried resetting NVRAM and SCM but it didn't help. The current 16-inch MacBook Pro was the lone MacBook line not to receive an M1 upgrade. It features a ninth-gen Intel Core i7 CPU, 16GB of RAM, AMD Radeon Pro 5300M graphics and a 512GB SSD.
Ever since Apple introduced USB-C and Thunderbolt ports to its MacBook laptops, they did so at the expense of other ports. As much as many had hoped to see the market flooded with USB-C devices, it isn’t necessarily that case even today, and many users are still having to use dongles and docks.
However, the good news is that with the next-gen MacBook Pro, Apple could fix that issue. A report from analyst Ming-Chi Kuo claims that with the next-gen MacBook Pro, Apple is said to not only introduce a brand new design to the laptop, but will also bring back certain ports like the SD card slot.
They will also be introducing a HDMI port which is great news for users who own monitors that don’t necessarily have a USB-C/Thunderbolt connection. Ideally we’d love to see maybe USB-A ports for legacy devices, but we suppose having HDMI and the SD card slot back would be a decent compromise.
Other rumored features include a design inspired by the iPad Pro, the return of MagSafe charging, and we could also be bidding the Touch Bar goodbye. We’re not sure when the new MacBook Pro will be announced, but seeing as the last refresh was late 2020, chances are it will probably be much later in the year.
