I'd be surprised if they brought back ALL of the ports. I'm guessing they'll bring back the HDMI and the sd card slot (although probably microSD this time).
- nicoburns 6y agoYeah, probably not all of them. I'd certainly be surprised to see usb-A. The rumours I heard said the magsafe port would be back too though.
- bonestamp2 6y agoI loved magsafe at the time, but I can't decide if I want magsafe now. It's pretty nice being able to charge most devices in my bag with the same USB-C cord. If they had a magnetic breakaway connection in the middle of a USB-C cord, that would be the best of both worlds.
- Teever 6y agoOnly microSD would be useless. People with fancy cameras need a full size SD port.
- bonestamp2 6y agoI think what you mean is that it would be useless for people who need a full SD ports. A MicroSD slot is not useless for MicroSD cards.
- Teever 6y agoApple would presumably be reintroducing an SD lot to court the prosumer/professional market with these new laptops just as they have with the revamped iMac Pro and the Apple Pro. As such they would need to add a full SD slot for people who use professional cameras because that is the form factor that these cameras use -- not microSD. Think about it another way -- what kind of products use microSD cards? What market would Apple be targeting if they brought microSD slots to their laptops?
