A 6-core 15-inch MacBook Pro echoed a new echelon of performance from a portable machine, and Apple has taken that performance barrier to the next stage with the launch of its new, and fastest ever MacBook Pro. Comprising of 8th and 9th-generation Intel processors, for the first time ever, Apple has incorporated an 8-core CPU inside the premium housing of its notebook. This means that creative professionals, content creators, or anyone desiring the most powerful MacBook Pro or has grown accustomed to Apple’s macOS platform will certainly appreciate this launch. Here are all the details regarding the latest unveiling.

Both the 15-inch and 13-inch MacBook Pro 2019 versions retain the Touch Bar feature like their predecessors, but both versions come with a subtle, but necessary change, which was not mentioned in the press release. According to The Loop Insight, Apple has incorporated its 4th-generation Butterfly switches, promising a better typing experience, and hopefully, better reliability in the long run. Apple states that the new and much faster MacBook Pro offers two times the performance than a quad-core-equipped MacBook Pro, and 40 percent more performance than a machine featuring a 6-core CPU.
