It\u2019s up to time to tell us if Apple will launch two versions; 13-inch and 14-inch or just the one size for all.<\/p>\n<p>Apple did do something similar last year with the MacBook Pro 15 released in the summer and then released the MacBook Pro 16 in the winter.<\/p>\n<p>Now you may be thinking \u201c<strong>How much is this new 13-inch MacBook Pro going to cost?<\/strong>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Well we don\u2019t have any solid evidence as of now to give you any conclusions, but going with the history on the prices of the MacBook Pros and Apple\u2019s usual pricing schemes we can do a good estimate.<\/p>\n<p>The newest 16-inch MacBook Pro that Apple released in December has the same exact price as the MacBook Pro 15. Even though it\u2019s a newer MacBook with extra features and benefits it is still the same exact price.<\/p>\n<p>So if they are continuing to follow this pricing structure, <strong>the new 13-inch MacBook should be $1,299 at the entry level and giving consumers the option to upgrade with additional features.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>At entry level we can expect apple to upgrade its storage \u2013 as it\u2019s only 128GB currently. Even the MacBook Air\u2019s entry level is at 256GB. Other upgrade will most likely include a later version of Intel\u2019s 10<sup>th<\/sup> generation Ice Lake chip; going from an 8<sup>th<\/sup> gen chip to a 10<sup>th<\/sup> gen chip.<\/p>\n<p>Along with a revamp of the keyboard with the Magic Keyboard that Apple has given to the 16-inch MacBook Pro and the MacBook Air. The new 13-in MacBook Pro should have the same keyboard as the other products.<\/p>\n<p>Ming-Chi Kuo also predicts that Apply will upgrade the quality of the screens with new technology as they are working on the Mini LED display. Kuo believes that we would see that tech on the 14-inch MacBook Pro. So even though the MacBook screen are beautiful right now, it should look even better to the eyes with this new technology in place.<\/p>\n<p>Only time will tell what Apple will do next, but we sure are all on the edge of our seats, waiting!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following the beautiful and powerful MacBook Pro 16 Inch launch in December 2019, there have been rumors to release a much needed, 13 Inch MacBook Pro.
