We're not living in normal times though just now, so I don't see what it benefits Apple by holding anything back.
The more I look at the price of a 16GB, quad core MBA, with no TouchBar, I think I've found my new laptop, regardless of what the new MBP brings.

Well the time for it has come and gone so I guess so D: They must be having a good laugh over there in Cupertino!
After years of wait, the Apple Mac lineup finally makes sense once the new 14" is out.
Current base 13" MBP is such a terrible deal right now though. 128GB SSD, 8th gen processor (does it even beat the 10th gen Y series on the new 2020 MBA??) and scam keyboard. Cmon Apple, give us the new MBP we need and deserve

The shipping dates for it have now pinged back in line with the other non update models after mirroring the Air and iPad Pro so looks like that's right. But yeah the new MBA makes it a very poor option!
It's ok, they've stopped calling it that (now it's just called 'full sized backlit keyboard') problem solved!

Well, Apple, I'm here with the money in my hands. Announce a 14" MacBook Pro with WiFi6 and the improved speakers and I'll throw it at you. Whenever you're ready.
This actually have some logic behind it since a lot videographers and photographers as myself are buying pro because of better display. People who desperately need new macbook for photo business will buy current mbp 13. Even I would buy one now if I needed it for paid work, but as I hobbyst I can wait couple of weeks/months even though I really was looking to see one today 
why would they though? Display is same (except tiny bit less nits) and cpu + gpu seems comparable...This actually have some logic behind it since a lot videographers and photographers as myself are buying pro because of better display.

Cpu and gpu are comparable, but display is inferior. I already said that it is not by a huge margin, but for color corrections and better contrast I appreciate additional nits and you can see additional colors which comes from dci p3 standard.
Totally agree. For me, video editing is just a hobby, and my usage mainly resides in a web browser or Adobe suite (definitely counting down the days until Adobe Illustrator is released on iPad, but there’s plenty of options to use in the meantime).
I was totally ready for the 14" MBP today. Money was ready. Really disappointed.
Me too, especially difficult because I finally decided to purchase one to compliment my 10.5 pro.
Yup, that's exactly what I ordered this morning. I got a used 2019 MBP 2.4Ghz i5 for around $1100 that I can still return to Amazon. I'm sure it's faster, but the touchbar is useless and I'd trade it for the new keyboard.
Nobody knows.... The recent rumour suggests by Q2, so sometime before June.
I'm still hopeful we will get something announced sooner rather than later.
Me too. I was really hoping for 14 miniLED as soon as possible but we are probably going to get 13 updated sometime until june and then 14/16 mini led at the end of 2020 or spring 2021. There is no way they are going to leave old 13 until new year with this price and without update.
