Ciao! It is definitely a bit thicker and heavier than before and is also reminiscent of older gen MacBook Pro models. Still, if that's what it means for great thermals and battery life, no complaints on any of those counts. pic.twitter.com/Fz72F6pN9NCiao!

New Zealand does not currently have any Apple Stores in the country so all of its customers are getting their new MacBook Pro and AirPods through delivery. In Australia, however, Apple does have a retail presence so we should also expect to see photos of customers picking up their new devices at their local store.
Apple originally announced the new MacBook Pro and 3rd generation AirPods at its "Unleashed" event last week.
The new 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pros feature the company's new M1 Pro and M1 Max processors, a mini-LED display, MagSafe charging, a new keyboard, and the return of a number of ports. It also announced new colors for the HomePod mini and a new subscription tier for Apple Music called the Voice plan.
The newest and best
The 14-inch MacBook Pro (2021) comes with an M1 Pro or M1 Max SoC that's fast, secure, and available with the most memory and storage options. Did we mention that incredible display and that it comes with MagSafe?!
