Overhauled MacBook Pro laptops and a new computer monitor were presented in a press conference at Apple’s Cupertino, California, headquarters. The new MacBook Pro has a Touch ID fingerprint scanner which makes it easier to buy online using the Apple Pay payments system. Chief executive officer Tim Cook has meanwhile sought to expand services revenue from the App Store, iTunes and iCloud to offset slowing hardware sales. The new version of the MacBook Pro comes with either a 13-inch or 15-inch display. Apple also announced a 5K monitor developed with LG Electronics Inc that connects to the new MacBook Pro, and a new TV app.
