In case you guys didn’t know, Apple just launched new 2018 MacBook Pro laptops
If you’re a user of the older Touch Bar Macbook pro, you should know that the keyboard is extremely loud when you type and good news on the new 2018 MacBook Pro is that now it’s more quieter keyboard. You don’t have to become a distraction any more.
Of course aside from that there are also several new configurations for both the 13-inch MacBook Pro with Touch Bar and the 15-inch MacBook Pro with Touch Bar where they have updated components, but the computer design is unchanged.
