Anyone purchasing a new 16-inch Macbook Pro will get a 140W USB-C charger plus the 2-meter USB-C to MagSafe 3 cable. If you order the new 14-inch MacBook Pro, then you can expect to receive a 67W USB-C power adapter if your laptop has an 8-core M1 Pro CPU inside, or a 96W USB-C adapter if you order one with either a 10-core M1 Pro or M1 Max CPU (it’s also available as an optional accessory for the cheaper model). The 2-meter MagSafe 3 cable has a USB-C plug to plug into the charger. Without providing detailed specs, Apple says that with fast charging, the MacBook Pro can charge up to 50 percent in just 30 minutes.Īpple’s spec page reveals that both of the new MacBook Pros will still come with USB-C charging bricks. The 27-inch iMac comes with a base configuration of 3.1GHz 6-core 10th-generation Intel i5, 8GB DDR4 RAM, 256GB SSD, and Radeon Pro 5300 graphics for 1,799.

According to Apple, the new MacBook Pros can still charge via USB-C also, but the updated MagSafe 3 plug delivers more power than before. A less familiar addition is the new notch atop those Mini LED-packed 120Hz displays.īut for the clumsy people with cable-strewn desks, the return of MagSafe - what we’ve seen on iPhones just isn’t the same - might be the most important feature. The Mac Pro, MacBook Air, Apple TV, Airport, Time Capsule, Cinema Displays, etc. iPhones and iPods are on a roughly annual release schedule. Other than their M1 Pro and M1 Max chips, the new 14-inch and 16-inch computers ditch the much-hated Touch Bar in favor of physical keys and bring back the additional ports (HDMI, SDXC) power users love. Usually the cycle is that you get a new spec release, followed by a speed bump release, followed by new spec release, etc. Apple MacBook Pro ports with MagSafe 3 Image: Apple

It seems unlikely an experienced professional like Brownlee would have made such a huge mistake to leak the M2 MacBook Air’s release date without the go-ahead from Cupertino, so it’s more likely the host deliberately provided viewers with an “Easter egg”, knowing that it would certainly add to the hype that is already building over the new MacBook Air’s upcoming retail launch.Apple ditched MagSafe five years ago when it moved to USB-C charging on its new laptops, but MagSafe 3 brings the familiar quick-release connector back to this latest lineup of MacBook Pro laptops. These calendar entries lend plenty of weight to the belief that the 2022 Apple MacBook Air will be available for pre-orders a day after the briefing, so on July 8, while the laptop will be officially released a day after the review embargo, therefore on July 15.

As spotted by eagle-eyed observers like Michael Burkhardt, it seems the TechTuber has an “Apple MBA briefing” to attend to on July 7 while there’s a note made on July 14 for “MacBook Air Embargo”.

While testing out the phone’s touch responsiveness, Brownlee scrolls through a calendar that reveals some very interesting information. Apple ditched MagSafe five years ago when it moved to USB-C charging on its new laptops, but MagSafe 3 brings the familiar quick-release connector. We have already reported about a tip that pre-orders for the new MacBook Air would begin on July 8 with the laptop appearing on shelves at retailers on July 15, and these dates may have been confirmed by “accident” by none other than Marques Brownlee in a video review for the Asus ROG Phone 6 Pro. Apple brings MagSafe 3 to the new MacBook Pro. Not only does this latter laptop feature the same M2 chip with a choice between an 8-core GPU part or 10-core GPU part, where the new Apple silicon has already been particularly praised, but it also features a considerable redesign in comparison to the 2020 MacBook Air with M1 chip.

While the new 13-inch Apple MacBook Pro with M2 has somewhat divided opinion, with its dated looks and SSD controversy casting a bit of a pall over its generally positive reception, there are still huge expectations in place for the upcoming 2022 MacBook Air.
