everything to know about macbook pro 14 inch | apple mini led
after the release of macbook pro 16 inches 2019 which replaced the macbook pro 15 inch everyone was curious about if apple is going to do the same thing with the 13 macbook pro and replaced it with 14 inch macbook pro.
and now we have some concrete proof and we know that apple might release macbook pro 14 inch. Ming chei kuw who is an Apple analyst great at predicting future apple products is saying that we're gonna get a MacBook Pro14 inch instead of macbook pro 13 inches.
we're going to get an extra inch of screen real estate from the macbook pro 14 inch very similar to the macbook pro 16 inch model. apple is going to reduce the size of the screen bezel while keeping the same form factor the outside.
this new screen size in macbook pro 14 inch means that we're also getting new display panel technology instead of the traditional LCD panel inside the macbook pro 14 inch as we get on the MacBook Air and entire macbook lineup is going to be using mini LED display panels instead
this mini led display panel adoption in macbook pro 14 inch is great because mini LED offers a higher peak brightness, wider color gamut, better color accuracy, and better blacks than traditional LCD display panel.
don't get a mini led display panel confused with micro-LED display pannels. micro-LED is the upgrade from OLED and we don't want OLED display in our laptop as cool as it is, as bright and vivid as it gets we don't know how it's going to be 4 to 5 years from now.
OLED display panels are also known to have display burning issue and people keep their laptops longer than they do their smartphones that's why OLED display in a laptop is not ideal to use.
now obviously just like the macbook pro 16 inch version we're gonna get the better speaker, better microphone, the bigger battery, the Siri button being moved over a bit more to the left on the touch bar and most importantly the Escape key in the macbook pro 14 inch.
when it comes to performance apple is still going to use Intel processors inside the macbook pro 14 inch. we know a lot of people would like to use AMD processors but we don't think that's a good idea in the macbook pro 14 inch.
the Intel processors of laptops coming out this year will still be faster than the AMD counterparts. AMD is a lot closer but Intel still going to be a better plus on top of this it has Intel Quick Sync and all the benefits of Thunderbolt 3 which will allow you to access an 8k display or a higher refresh rate depending on the type of monitor you hook it up to.
AMD is just not there yet in terms of mobile processors features and you have to understand something even if apple were gonna go with AMD in the macbook pro 14 inch they'd have to re-optimize everything in macos to work with it and right now quick sync especially in applications like Adobe Premiere it offers huge speed improvements when you're rendering files.
speaking of rendering files those intel processors in macbook pro 14 inch will be about 12% to 15% faster than the previous generation of Intel processors at least in terms of raw CPU performance.
the biggest area that you'll see a performance boost in the macbook pro 14 inch is going to be to graphics. these laptops are coming with the intel iris plus graphic chips which will give you about a 30 percent performance increase.
this will make a big deal if you game on your macbook pro 14 inch, this will matter if you're using Final Cut Pro or Adobe Premiere or any application that can utilize the integrated GPU.
besides that, you're not going to see much more difference between macbook pro 14 inch and macbook pro 13 inch. these are internal spec updates plus redesigned keyboards using the scissor switches that are very similar to the macbook pro 16 inch and most importantly the year of mini LED for Apple.
we're gonna see much better display panels on the upcoming apple products as well as the macbook pro 14 inch than we did the previous year and that alone is very exciting for me as someone who appreciates in good display I'm kind of excited for the macbook pro 14 inch I am curious to see exactly what these products can do.
