When asked if there is a chance that the SD card slot and other connectors will return in the next MacBook models.





Probably, again, nothing concrete has yet been decided, the situation can always change. But since we spend a lot of time with the MacBook Pro exploring what our customers use, what they need to input/output data, where their needs grow and how they change, we did a lot of research and asked questions. In particular, we were interested in connectors, USB-A, a slot for SD-cards, HDMI and so on. We came to the conclusion that more and more customers use USB-C and Thunderbolt, they like an incredible margin of performance, higher power, and charging capacity. Therefore, we think that in the highest-level laptop, the four USB-C / Thunderbolt connectors provide the maximum margin for what you will do in the coming years.

Apple's vice president of marketing confirmed that the 16-inch MacBook Pro comes out at about $ 600 lower than expected: "Our goal was to replace the 15-inch with a 16-inch model and offer users even more at the same price."
