The absence of the function row at the top of the keyboard confirms speculations of the possible use of an OLED technology. Yet to be installed were the Trackpad and the keys.

However, the size of the MacBook model in the pictures seems a little bit thinner. Four USB-C ports are revealed in the photos - two on the left and two on the right. Also present are thin speaker grills on both sides of the keyboard and a headphone jack.

Apple is working on completely new and improved 13 and 15-inch MacBook Pro models. Rumors have it that they will have thinner and lighter form factor with OLED display touch bar to replace physical function keys. A Touch ID button is expected to be built into the bar for support of USB-C and Thunderbolt 3.

The new MacBook Pro is set to hit the market in the fourth quarter of 2016, though many fans were anticipating for a Worldwide Developers Conference launch as noted by the same publication.

However, based on Kuo's information, the launch of the new devises will probably happen during fall 2016. Here is a sneak peek for more information on the imminent MacBook Pro 2016.
