[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1925620, member: 56379"] The 13" M2 MacBook Pro was released June, 2022 (6 months ago)...thus it is new (newest 13" MacBook Pro model)...but not exactly as "new" as the 14" and 16" M2 MacBook Pro's announced yesterday (January 17, 2023).:) Redesigning a computer model takes a lot of time, money, and retooling of the factories where the computers are produced. The 13" M2 MacBook Pro (as well as the M1 13" MacBook Pro)...probably need to be redesigned to before the touch bar is removed (other items redesigned as well). The 14" & 16" M2 MacBook Pro's are more premium products. If Apple removed the touch bar from them...the touch bar in the 13" MacBook Pro probably won't survive the next redesign. And that's if the 13" Macbook Pro isn't discontinued altogether...since it's sort of silly to have both a 13" and 14" MacBook Pro in the same lineup. Nick [/QUOTE]
