With any luck the Touch Bar is on its way out. The M1 MacBook Air doesn’t have it and is honestly a better laptop for that sole reason.

- Ashanmaril 5y agoThat was mostly based off the base-model 13" MacBook Pro from before which didn't have a touchbar.
- arn 5y agoThere are legit rumors that Apple is specifically killing the Touch Bar as well.
- Ashanmaril 5y agoI know, I'm just saying the M1 MBP isn't an indicator because it's not a new design.
- aroman 5y agoNo, it is based on leaked schematics[1] from one of Apple's component suppliers who were the unfortunate victims of a ransomeware attach. [1] https://www.macrumors.com/2021/04/21/macbook-pro-stolen-schematics-ports/ https://www.macrumors.com/2021/04/21/macbook-pro-stolen-sche...
- Ashanmaril 5y agoI'm aware of the leaks/rumors, but I'm saying the M1 MBP isn't any indication. It's not an entirely newly designed body, just the old base model with a new processor (and I think the new non-butterfly keyboard?)
- aroman 5y agoI don’t follow. The leaks indicate Apple is planning a fully designed MBP. The schematics show a completely redesigned chassis and the removal of the touch bar. i’m not sure why the current M1 MBP is relevant here.
