#22Finally, the touch bar of the Macbook is gone.
...and the dreaded notch is back. Time to wait again.

#23I can't believe they're doubling down on the notch. The absolute best thing I can say about the iPhone notch is: I don't hate it enough to switch to Android. It's by far the thing that bothers me the most about the design. It's ugly and lacking harmony with the UI.
It's a much better compromise than the pop-up selfie cameras that were a fad for a sec, but then died because of the extra compromises needed for water resistance, battery, extra motor, etc.

#24Am I the only one bothered by the thickness? I mean, the new macs are going to be amazing machines but....it's just so un-Apple, you know? Still, gonna pick one up as soon as I can :)

#25This laptop seems to have 0 compromises, I'm buying one instantly.
It has a notch. That is one heck of a compromise.
Is it? I think the notch is just where the menu already is, so it's sort of a moot point. I'd love if my current Mac camera were integrated into the space that I already use for the menu bar.

Not to mention that I, for example, have the top bar automatically hidden on my mac. Meaning, if I ever decided to buy one of these, I'd have to have it always shown, or I won't be able to click on some of my browser tabs?
How does full screen mode work with this, I wonder?

There are under-display cameras these days.

#29The specs on the new MacBook Pro are incredible, especially considering people were already blown away by the performance of the first M1 MacBook. It’s a seriously powerful machine. And the additional ports are a very welcome change.

Personally not. They've been optimising for thinness at the cost of pro-ness for too long I think. This seems like a more sensible balance to me.
