Touch ID, OLED touch bar to highlight thinner MacBook Pro models in Q4
Have you seen an OLED display next to an LCD? It makes the LCD look like dog crap. OLED is the future. Pixel shifting will eliminate burnin and lifespan concerns and once the yield rates improve, their price will go down. Thinner, lighter, malleable. This tech was made for Apple.misa said:
Every time you see OLED, close the news item, because it's full of crap. OLED's are rubbish technology for anything that isn't meant to be thrown away in a year. Everyone loves LCD's over CRT because of the increase of sharpness and LCD's weigh substantially less, so for that reason we can replace a TV.patchythepirate said:That question is 99% of the reason I opened up this thread. I can't think of a non-gimmicky reason to have that feature. And since I know Apple doesn't do gimmicks, I'm intrigued. And flummoxed!
Hmm, maybe somehow part of a gesture-based interface?
But the push to replace LCD's with worse technology seems to be a profit-driven choice, without any concern for the e-waste. Apple is already bad enough with making things impossible to repair, so making laptop's have the lifespan of a cell phone isn't exactly a good direction for Apple to go.
Everything should last 7 years without needing to be repaired or replaced

Why doesn't Apple bring the smart connector to the Mac and have that become the new Mag Safe? Power and data.jibberj said:It all sounds good, but I hope they don't ditch the MagSafe.

Sight unseen, consumers are more excited about Apple's 'iPhone 7' than they were for iPhone 6s
3D Touch is crucial to Apple being able to eliminate the home button and shrink bezels. People should stop saying they have no use for it. YOU WILL!
