Now that Apple has officially confirmed another event, rumors about the new M1X MacBook Pro models are increasing. Now a leaker is reporting on the features.
Various sources suggest that the upcoming devices will feature a new chassis design, an HDMI port and an SD card slot, as well as an Apple-designed “M1X” SoC that is expected to replace the current 16-inch Intel configurations with better performance and power efficiency. According to the reliable leaker @dylandkt (at least reliably so far) these professional notebooks will also come with a higher quality 1080p webcam. For years, users have criticized Apple's laptops for their poor camera quality, from the 12-inch MacBook's awful 480p lens to the extremely mediocre FaceTime camera on most current Mac models. And yes, webcams are more important than ever in times like these.
M1X MacBook Pro: More RAM, slimmer display bezels
With the launch of the M1 iMac earlier this year, Apple finally started revamping the FaceTime camera. The device is known to have a surprisingly good 1080p webcam. It is therefore safe to assume that the MacBook Pro will be next. In his Twitter post, Dylan also touched on the RAM. He claims that the M1X MacBook Pro will come with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage as standard, both in the 16-inch and the new 14-inch sizes. In addition, there will supposedly be a 32GB RAM option, according to the leaker. As for the design, Dylan says that the "MacBook Pro" lettering in the lower display bezel has been removed in favor of an overall slimmer bezel. Regarding the display, he confirmed a previous statement, according to which the devices will receive a mini-LED display. (Image: rendersbyian)
