MacBook Pro 2016 News
An October release for the MacBook Pro isn't exactly impossible. There have been quite a few rumors saying that Apple will release a new MacBook this year. This is also supported by a certain email leak that occurred a few weeks ago showing a conversation between an Apple follower and Tim Cook. According to a source, Cook has allegedly said that the company is very committed to the Mac and that fans should just stay tuned.
For the other Macs such as the MacBook Air, Mac Pro, Mac mini and iMac, there have been no concrete news or rumors about their refresh yet.
