The new MacBook Pro has finally be unveiled at an Apple event after months of waiting. Here are five accessories to help you make the most of the new USB-C ports and keep your shiny new computer in good condition!
Apple announced its new MacBook Pro computers last week. Like the iPhone 7, the laptop eliminates quite a few ports that came standard on past models — MagSafe power, USB 3.0, Thunderbolt 2 and HDMI. These are replaced with just two or four Thunderbolt 3 / USB-C ports. That makes for a sleek-looking laptop, but it also means you can’t plug your iPhone in without an adapter. Here’s what you’ll need.
It’s nice to get work done away from your desk, but if you’re using a laptop with a mouse it’s not always easy to find a good place for everything. The LapPad is designed to solve this problem, offering a flat and even surface that holds your laptop or tablet, your mouse and your mobile. Essentially, the LapPad recreates the desk feel for your lap.
Apple is preparing to overhaul its MacBook Pro line of laptops, according to KGI analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. The 13- and 15-inch laptops will be thinner and lighter, with a keyboard inspired by that of the new MacBook and new metal injection moulded hinges.
One of the biggest surprises of the new MacBook was its ports — or rather, its lack of them. The new laptop from Apple has only two ports: one 3.5mm headphone jack and one USB Type-C port. This single USB-C port is responsible for pretty much everything: adding peripherals, connecting to monitors, and even charging.
