Apple launched the new MacBooks with M1 Pro\/ Max chips. It also redesign the Pro machine and introduced a notch for the first time.<\/b>
\nApple launched the new MacBook Pro last month in India and other international markets. The new MacBooks comes with Apple\u2019s most powerful chips called the M1 Pro and M1 Max. The new chips bring with them significant performance and efficiency claims. Alongside, the new Apple laptops also got a major redesign with the return of the SD card slot and HDMI port. Apple also shrunk the bezels around the display and introduced a notch. One might think that this notch also houses the Face ID setup but that is not the case. When asked by Wall Street Journal (via 9to5Mac), Apple executives explained the reasons for not including Face ID to the Macs. Apple\u2019s new MacBook Pro continues to feature Touch ID and the top right corner of the top case. Tom Boger, Apple\u2019s vice president of iPad and Mac product marketing, believes that Touch ID is \u201cmore convenient on a laptop since your hands are already on the keyboard.\u201d While that response (and logic) might be fair to some extent, one could argue that something like Face ID (or Windows Hello, for that matter) is even more convenient as the screen is also right in front of the user\u2019s face. The publication also asked Apple the reason for not including touch support on the Macs. John Ternus, Apple\u2019s senior VP of hardware engineering, said that a touch-enabled Mac was never in Apple\u2019s mind. \u201cWe make the world\u2019s best touch computer on an iPad. It\u2019s totally optimised for that. And the Mac is totally optimised for indirect input. We haven\u2019t really felt a reason to change that,\u201d he said. So in case you are waiting for that one Mac machine with touch-screen support, you are likely to be disappointed. The executives further revealed that water-resistant MacBooks is \u201cnot on many people\u2019s list\u201d and that users are unlikely to get the option to upgrade the hardware post-purchase due to Mac\u2019s unified memory architecture.
