No Touchscreen. Still no touchscreen. And it’s already 2016. Instead, Apple decided to remove the physical function keys and replace it with a contextual Touch Bar. It’s a nice approach but we think a touchscreen display would have been nicer.
Switch to Butterfly mechanism on the Keys. The thin butterfly keys on the Macbook are now also on the Macbook Pro. Having used the Macbook Air and Macbook, we think the original keyboard mechanism is still better.
No Regular USB ports. Good thing there are a lot of Thunderbolt ports (4 of them, in the shape of USB Type-C) but why did Apple had to remove the regular USB-A ports where we can connect an external mouse, printer, camera, including the iPhone’s Lightning cable. You’ll be really forced to buy those expensive adapters after all. Hello, octopus dongles!
No MagSafe Port. Yes, you can now charge the Macbook Pro to any of the 4 Thunderbolt ports (which is nice, yeah) but the proprietary Apple MagSafe 2 is still better or more practical. Perhaps they could have reserved one of the 4 ports and just use the old MagSafe port while continue to support charging on the other 3 ports. Bets of both world, right?
No SD Card reader. Having an SD card reader on a laptop should still be a standard and we think the size of the Macbook Pro should still be able to accommodate it. This should be a bummer for a lot of photographers out there looking to upgrade.
