M5 teaser for the MacBook?

Apple's M5 MacBook Pro Imminent: What to Expect

Apple is going to launch a new version of the MacBook Pro as soon as tomorrow, so we thought we'd go over what to expect from Apple's...

Will be interesting to see if the Macbook lineup sticks with Air/Pro or if they’ll slot in a plain Macbook too.

Maybe a new Mac Pro? It’s somewhat overdue by now.

If it's still a cheese grater design it'll be disappointing since the form factor is hardly applicable to most of its hardware since it's essentially a non upgradeable Mac mini/studio with PCIE slots.

MB, iPad and Vision Pros

iPad cool - Vision Pros cool if you like that - Oooof that's disappointing for those waiting for the next MB Pro. It just a base M5 processor shoved in the entry level 14" MB Pro.

MacBook Pro

Find the best MacBook Pro for you with the M5, M5 Pro, or M5 Max chip. Built for AI. Up to 24 hours of battery life. Liquid Retina XDR display.

If the M5 Pro and M5 Max processors are also just drop in replacements that'll be seriously disappointing from Apple for all those expecting something... better.

M5 Pro and Max are apparently going to be coming next year with the new OLED design

No new Apple TV? My wallet will celebrate.

Apparently. Still underwhelming. If they had TB5 perhaps that would've been something. Clearly they've run out of base model MB4's to sell or trying to get rid of the current form factor.

Lol another EU success story.

If they had've launched a studio I would've been annoyed. I need to feel special with my M4 Max for a year at least.

UK is not in the EU, just Apple being Apple.

I'm glad that Macrumours listed some of the European countries. And glad they added "others"... I suppose they weren't sure which other countries are in Europe or not.

Anker chargers are better anyway.

The 256/512GB iPad Pros now have 12GB of RAM and the 1/2TB have 16GB, as previously. It was thought that Apple would go 8GB to 16GB and 16GB to 24GB, but they cheapened out.

I've had better luck with Apple USB-C chargers than with either brand.

Weird my 2 Ugreen 140 watt chargers are still going strong.

Apple prefers that people in Europe go with the likes of Anker. If buying a charger may as well get one which can also charge your phone, watch, tablet and notebook, often at the same time.

Anker tend to be lighter and smaller and have more ports. Some even have displays which show you the current output like their recently release portable 140W charger. The only benefit the Apple charger has is that it identifies its serial number and amperage in Mac OS utilities eg Coconut Battery or Al Dente.

Anker Prime 250W vs Apple 96W stock charger.
