Just add "save as draft message like Android google's message app and I will be very very happy. Than, I don't have to use Notes or email to write a draft message text than copy/paste into iMessage. In advance, thank you Apple.

Smaller circuit makes very small difference for saving space on motherboard. But, when more discrete chips(WiFi,BT,4G/5G modem,etc) functionality get integrated on single SOC, you save space on motherboard so motherboard is smaller which provides extra space for other things like battery.

WiFi 6 will add some relief to already congested WiFi networks but true benefit of WiFi 6 speed won't be realized until 6Ghz clear channel will be implemented in routers,devices.

What is “6Ghz clear channel”?

In WiFi 6, 6 Ghz (5.925 GHz up to 7.125 GHz); legacy Wi-Fi 4 and Wi-Fi 5 devices will not be allowed. Wi-Fi 6 radios on these frequencies will not have to compensate for Wi-Fi 4/5 radios barging into their transmissions. WiFi 6 6Ghz(not WiFi 6 2.4/5Ghz) will have clear channel/band/frequencies for itself for transmission.

Not having WiFi 6 when the current iPhones offer the feature in a 900 to $1,500 Apple product is disappointing, but otherwise, this seems to check all the boxes for the most capable portable Mac ever without any apparent showstoppers waiting in the wings at least for my personal projected use cases, port needs, etc.

And I've waited through the entire butterfly era for a dream machine.

Count me in.

WiFi 6 would have been nice for future proofing MBP purchase but until WiFi 6, 6Ghz is approved by FCC and such chip is available to put in MBP, current WiFi 6 is half the story. Because current WiFi 6 signals use 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz band which also compete with WiFi 5 and WiFi 4. For that reason, if you need than just buy 16" MBP and in future buy tiny $25 full WiFi 6 USB-C plug-in adapter.

You had me until you cited Forbes ... then I stopped reading. Seriously guys??

Anyway, will buy one when they’re announced, and not before!

There are two writers(Gordon and Spensor) on Forbes who constantly talks against Apple products.I hate both of them because they portray as independent product analyst but probably paid by Apple competitors.
