Apple’s accidentally leaked its rumoured Macbook touchbar and we’re just a few days away from Apple’s announcement. The rumoured OLED Macbook touchbar is now believe to be called the Magic toolbar based on trademark filings.
Images hidden inside the latest operating system “MacOS Sierra 10.12.1”, showcased this dynamic magic toolbar in action.
One of these images features Apple’s new keyboard layout. Now this might be hard to see but if this mockup from Apple are believed to be true, you can actually see that the touch-iD sensor is located at the top right hand corner of this toolbar and it’s actually its own separated section which is part of the entire magic toolbar.
The speakers here are also thinner in size but they align with the top and bottom of the keyboard. In past MacBooks though, the 13-inch never had speakers, only the 15-inch model did. So, either they squeezed this into the new design or the image we’re seeing is from the new 15-inch MacBook Pro.
Also, if you take a closer look at the arrow key layout, it has taken a page from the ultra thin 12-inch Macbook design and the escape key is completely missing because that has been replaced by the entire magic toolbar.
So we’ll have to wait for Apple’s official announcement that’s coming on Thursday, October 27th, 2016 at Apple’s headquarters to know if these leaked images are the real deal.
