Apple has just launched a new MacBook Pro today with a screen size of 16-inches. The new MacBook is available now for pre-order and will be in stores later this week. With a starting price of $2,399, Apple seems to have kept the same price as the previous 15-inch MacBook Pro. If you go all-in on the specs the price jumps to a staggering $6,099.

It comes with a new processor, a larger screen, better speakers, a larger battery and all on the same footprint as the previous generation.

The Keyboard

Apple has gone back to the old Scissor Mechanism of the switches that were used on the MacBook Pros of 2015. It’s not the same Mechanism that was once used but it is slightly different. The travel distance is around 1 millimeter. And the name of it is Magic Keyboard. Also at the top right corner now there is a dedicated Escape key and on the other end of it, a separate Touch ID unlocks sensor which is also a physical key.
