I want my ports back.

I want the same ports on the iphone as on the macbook.

No one cares about the damn touch bar. No one cares to have another few tenths of a mm shaved off the thickness.

I've yet to find a monitor that "just works" with my MBP. I'll take whatever they release.

My LG is nice, but often gets confused about when my laptop is plugged in. Both of my Dells are ok, but randomly lose signal and can't control the volume from the Apple keyboard or from the OS. It would also be nice to not need a docking station and or adapter anymore.

The 16.5" screen I would have never seen coming. I wonder what the target is or if they are just going edge to edge on a smilar size to what we have now in the 15

The 6K screen I predicted. It's the most data you can send over ThunderBolt 3. It does however, gimp any dock you could be able to use.

Now, will other manufacturers be quick to copy the 16" laptop?

I can plug in my Galaxy S8 to the MBP via the... power cable(male-male USB-C), but can't do the same with my SO's iPhone SE.

My phone came with a USB to USB-C adapter so now I can plug in the mouse as well.

My LG Ultrafine 4K works splendidly.

Lol, all the people waiting for a nice update on the 2017 mbp, that maybe would take care of the retarded keyboard and instead they release a macbook that nobody wanted

Excited for the 16-inch MacBook Pro.

Hopefully they will bump the pixel density and keep the 15” footprint by just using the black bezels around the screen. It’s kind of a shame that’s the current 15” doesn’t have a pixel density high enought to support 1:4 pixel matching in their default resolution. It results in blurry text.

At CES, "Samsung Unveil[ed a] 15.6-Inch Ultra-HD OLED Display for Laptops," https://www.anandtech.com/show/13896/samsung-unveils-15-6-in.... I wonder if Apple is going to round 15.6 inches up and call it 16".
