About This Mac

In the latter months of 2016, Apple would announce their fourth generation of MacBook Pro. This redesign was one of biggest changes in Apples laptop history. Introducing the full-colour Touchbar, Touch ID, a new ‘Butterfly Key’ mechanism, new colour (Space Gray or Silver) and a new Chassis which was lighter and smaller than its predecessor but lacking a dedicated charger port. This model had the option two or four of Apples new Thunderbolt 3 connections which were capable of high speed data transfer, connecting 4K displays and charging the device itself. A lower end version would also be released which would include only two Thunderbolt 3 ports and swapping the Touchbar out for physical function keys.
