The next iteration of the popular laptop from the Cupertino-based manufacturer, Apple, dubbed as MacBook Pro, will most definitely come out sometime this year. However, tech enthusiasts, specifically the Apple fans, are now starting to get confused as to when it will exactly come out. Rumor has it that the MacBook Pro 2016 might come out this March but other reports have suggested that it could be unveiled during the company's Worldwide Developers Conference (or commonly referred to as WWDC) this coming June, according to MacWorld UK.

If the March event turns accurate, then the MacBook Pro 2016 will share the spotlight with the company's latest addition to their iPhone handset as well as their tablet, dubbed as iPhone SE and iPad Air 3, respectively.

However, another possible basis for this speculation was because of the fact that the previous installment in MacBook Pro, the 2015 edition, was first released in March 2015, during the company's "Spring Forward" media event.

Meanwhile, in terms of changes for the MacBook Pro 2016, according to the report from Fox News, there is a high possibility that the next-gen laptop from Apple will undergo some changes with regards to its physical appearance.

Furthermore, the report has explained that Apple hasn't updated their design for the MacBook Pro lineup ever since the 2012.

As for the components under its hood, the MacBook Pro 2016 is now rumored to be equipped with the latest, current generation chipset from Intel, the Skylake processor, which is commonly known and referred to as the sixth gen CPU.

If this rumor and prediction turns out to be accurate, then the laptop would certainly have a much more powerful processing speed as well as a longer battery life compared to the Broadwell chip of the MacBook Pro 2015.

However, since everything has yet to be confirmed, fans are advised to take this one with a pinch of salt, and consider it as a mere prediction until proven otherwise.
