When introducing the new MacBook Pro, interested parties quickly noticed that the notch is now also finding its way into Apple notebooks. Criticism was not long in coming.
Apple: Notch on the MacBook Pro provides more space
In an interview, Apple has now commented on the recess. According to the group, it is "an intelligent way" to offer users more space on the display . Due to the recess, the actual edges of the MacBook Pro can be made thinner, it is said. The menu bar of macOS, which has been moved up, also ensures that the actual content can be more in focus.
Apple's Shruti Haldea sums it up like this: "We actually made the display bigger . As with other 16-inch notebooks, you still have an active area of 16.0 inches diagonally in a 16:10-inch window, and we simply enlarged the display from there and attached the menu bar at the top "( Source: Same Brain on YouTube).
