If the 16" MBP has a new keyboard more similar to the pre-butterfly one, they're going to sell a bunch of laptops.

My 10 year old MBP17 still works, but it's good that finally there will be a replacement option available. Hopefully it will have upgradeable parts again (at least RAM and disk).

So please start making bigger MBPs and smaller iPhones!

While Apple "may" add more memory to their MBP specs, I can only wish they could add more USB-C ports AND spacing USB-C ports to farther away each other.

I sure hope they are wrong about the lightning port living another year

I will never buy a macbook again if they keep these stupid butterfly keyboards.

Having two on each side (plus optional USB hubs) seems to be plenty. USB-C isn't perfect, but being able to charge from either side is a quality of life improvement.

Starting with the 2018 models they added a membrane around all the keys that 1) significantly reduces ingress of random crap 2) makes the keyboard quieter.

Before I got my 2018 I had a 2015 MacBook Pro and don't find the keyboard to be inferior or superior to the old gen.

Maybe they will be “brave” enough to put a mechanical keyboard in a notebook?

One could dream...
