What's available?
In May 2020, Apple launched an updated version of the 13-inch MacBook Pro with double the storage, faster processing speed, and the much-loved Magic Keyboard. All configurations of the 13-inch MacBook Pro include the controversial Touch Bar, but the 2020 model includes a physical escape key, which is big news for coders.
In November 2019, Apple shuffled its MacBook Pro lineup. Gone is the 15-inch MacBook Pro with Touch Bar and Touch ID, which has now been replaced by an all-new 16-inch model.
