Credit: Brooke CrothersWith the MacBook Pro, 12-inch MacBook, and possibly the MacBook Air due for a refresh in June at the WWDC, let's dig down a little and set expectations. But getting back to silicon, this is the anticipated bump-up from Intel 6th Gen Intel "Skylake" processors to 7th Gen "Kaby Lake." Kaby Lake is an "optimized" version of Skylake: For all you chip heads out there, Kaby Lake is still 14-nanometer not 10-nanometer as was originally expected. "Kaby Lake is indeed a minor update, but it brings important features like more efficient video decode," he told me in an email. Coming price drops on Skylake MacBook Pros: The coming months will be a great time to get killer deals on Skylake 13- and 15-inch Touch Bar MBPs.
