Webcam is rumored to be 1080p. At the price point of a Macbook Pro it should be a 4K webcam. We'll see, maybe the rumors are wrong. We know how long it takes Apple to upgrade their webcams so we might be stuck with 1080p until 2030.

Didn't film and TV make-up departments infamously have to do more/differently when higher definition cameras started to be used? I'm not sure I want a high resolution webcam...

It really shouldn’t. Most pro users absolutely don’t need a 4K webcam.

It should have a better camera, that much I agree with.
