As a counterpoint, I use my MBP for work (both coding and photo editing) and my list would be:
Should have:
* Headphone jack
* SD Reader
* Two USB ports, one on each side
Don't care:
* Video output ports - the few times I've needed a second/larger monitor AirPlay worked fine for me
* Function keys - I don't mind having to use fn to use the function keys
Don't want:
* Ethernet
* CD/DVD drive
* A dozen built in USB ports - if I need more than two I'll buy a hub
Not including a headphone jack would be really annoying but I would probably still buy one. I could buy a cheap pair of blue tooth headphones and be fairly sure they'll last for a while.
On the other hand, no headphone jack on the iPhone 7 means I absolutely will not buy one.
- tw04 10y agoGetting rid of a video out would be the single dumbest idea they could ever have. You will literally lose every professional on the planet who needs to present. I don't know of a projector in a corporate environment that supports airplay. 90% of them are still stuck with vga.
- chadgeidel 10y agoI agree, but aren't there several USB -> (vga/hdmi/what have you) devices on the market? I'm assuming that most people who need video out functionality need a dongle, but maybe HDMI is enough these days.
