In November 2019, Apple launched the 16-inch MacBook Pro which took the place of the previous 15-inch model. Currently, the lineup includes the 16-inch model and the 13-inch model. The features for the 16-inch model include an improved keyboard that has a scissor mechanism rather than a butterfly mechanism, slimmer bezels, bigger 16-inch Retina display, graphics cards from the AMD Radeon Pro 5000M Series, a maximum of 8TB storage space, and a maximum of 64GB RAM.
In May 2019, the higher-end 13-inch model was refreshed by Apple, while the entry-level models were refreshed in July 2019, making them comparable to the more expensive choices. The updated features include new quad-core processors, an improved butterfly keyboard, True Tone support, T2 security chip, Touch ID, and Touch Bar.
