Sadly I doubt it. I think it’ll be staying the same. Now that the dream of 14” has been ruined they better give the higher end model 16GB as standard ?
I mean there is no way they are keeping those huge outdated bezels right? I mean look at the beauty of the new all screen XPS 13.. that's what we want

I really hope not but I strongly doubt they’d slim down the bezels which if they keep the same size would mean a smaller chassis to then increase it later on in the yesr

Ok, so this is an interesting development. Does anyone think that there will be a secondary refresh post WWDC in 2020 or will the 14” wait until mini-LED in 2021?

Damn. I expect a lot of folks who waited are going to order the 16" now. the 13" is too small for many of us.

16 as standard only on some models. Also looks like the 2TB port version still comes with 8 and 8th gen CPUs. So not much of an update on those models...

Hard to understand how they could leave the entry level with such a minimal update, especially given the new MBA is breathing down those models’ necks. Perhaps Apple doesn’t really care for entry level MBP anymore and wants to push buyers to MBA

Looks like the 15W model only gets the keyboard and storage bump the 28W gets all the goodies - 10th gen CPUs, 16GB of faster base RAM, and double storage and the new KB. Not that surprising I suppose, but a little disappointing when you consider the £1,299 model goes against the Air and is in several key ways inferior (graphics, storage) or at least no better... I think the 14" really always has been a mini LED/ end of year thing. Just hope they are on schedule with it and the corresponding 16" update!

Entry level and the Macbook air i5 are basically the same machine.
