New 13-inch MacBook Pro

Just a spec bump and addition of the Magic Keyboard. Sure, 10th gen CPU and up to 4TB/32GB, but no 6-core CPU, no 14" screen. A lot of people are going to be disappointed.

Spec bump (not even wifi6) is an indicator of a major design upgrade coming in the fall. I expect a significant exterior change or the switch to Arm processors come October.

Not this year, maybe next October and it's still a stretch..

Arrogance is an Apple trademark, but they now have become complacent regarding their products ( not their financial performance though.. )

What's the target audience for 14'' 6-core? Perhaps not as wide as a 13'' 4-core that's significantly cheaper. Those looking for a highest spec mbp would probably look into 16'' anyway

I agree - but competitors like the XPS 13 have a 6-core CPU.

Yeah, I agree. These upgrades are kind of disappointing.

Yep.. 14”.. otherwise I’d have ordered the 32gb/2tb top version
