In an interview which the Apple SVP, Phil Schiller has made, on the new MacBook Pro launched yesterday by Apple, in the l shared more about the design of it. He talked about the new keyboard and the physical "escape" key. But it also dropped. Something we already knew or at least intuited. The SD card port will not return.
It is a port that, at least for me, is quite useful, but it is clear that with Apple's strategy of including fewer posts the better, this one for SD cards was the first to go away.
The SD port does not seem to be coming back
In an interview given by Schiller to YouTuber Jonathan Morrison, talked about the new features of the new 16-inch MacBook Pro, which Apple launched yesterday the 13th.
They talked about how this computer has been launched, after having listened to the requests of the users. Of what most interested each of them. In fact the physical escape key on the keyboard, It has been retrieved by user suggestions.
However it seems that the port for the SD cards, not a priority for those potential buyers of the new laptop.
Schiller mentioned to the YouTuber's question, that he does not think that they will include that port again, since the users did not require it. "What we really saw is that more and more customers are taking advantage of USB-C and Thunderbolt. They love the incredible space left in the computer and the performance there is, the more power there is, the charging capacity there is, and so we believe that having four USB-C / Thunderbolt ports in the highest-end laptop it gives more space for the things he is going to do in the coming years "
Interesting last sentence. I do not know what Apple has prepared to include in the new MacBook Pros, although I'm afraid it will take a long time to find out what it is about. For now, we can forget about the included SD port.
