MacBook Pro 2017 expected to introduce significant upgrades to specs

The MacBook Pro 2017 has been widely discussed over the internet, but there has not been clear confirmation from Apple about its actual specs and launch date. However, this has not stopped fans from speculating about its debut and features.

Rumor has it that the upcoming MacBook Pro 2017 will feature impressive upgrades. It is believed that the new device will come with a whopping 32 GB RAM powered by the latest 7th-generation Kaby Lake processor from Intel. If this is true, users may enjoy using the device without worrying about its capacity.

It is not surprising that tech enthusiasts expect significant launches from Apple this year since the Cupertino-based tech company will be celebrating a decade of making iPhones in 2017. Reports suggest that this year may be the best time to introduce high-end products and more sophisticated designs to usher the industry into a new generation of technology.

Tim Cook, Chief Executive of Apple, says that the Cupertino tech-giant has earned great revenue because of the strong demand for MacBook Pro units. In fact, Tim Cook reveals that their revenue soared to 14 percent, hitting a new March quarter record. He adds that they have generated $25 billion through the past four quarters. But what is surprising is that the tech giant company increased its sales despite insufficient hardware updates to its Mac lineup in three years — only the MacBook Pro that was updated last year. Previous rumors suggested that updated MacBooks might be launched next year.

Some reports suggest that the MacBook might not be introduced during the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) in June, but it could surface in October. 

Apple has yet to make an official statement about its plans for the next MacBook Pro installment. Thus, tech junkies should treat the latest claims as speculation until proven otherwise.

More updates should arrive soon.
