Apple is expected to incorporate several changes and improvements in the new Macbook Pro coming out this year.

According to a recent survey by Laptop Mag regarding the best and worst laptops in the market, Apple ranks fifth with its MacBook Pro line last year. Apple has consistently taken the top spot in the past years, but last year Lenovo took over the Cupertino-based company because of its features, design, and long battery life.

With this, there are rumors that Apple will try to make up for last year's "disaster" through this year's Macbook Pro 2017. Based on reports, the MacBook Pro 2017 is going to have high-end specifications.

Particularly, it is anticipated to come with the seventh-generation Kaby Lake processor. It is also expected to have options of 16 GB and 32 GB for internal storage. In addition, many believe that the MacBook Pro 2017 is going to come with a longer battery life.

Aside from the faster, bigger, and more powerful hardware under the hood, the MacBook 2017 is also expected to bring in several features that will make the device a highly valuable laptop for industry professionals.

There are rumors that Apple is going to bring in a feature that allows users to create content, similar to Cintiq's Wacom display, especially since the said technology is a huge hit among professionals. Apple may also incorporate compatibility of the Macbook Pro 2017 with the iPad Pro, so that users can seamlessly connect the two devices with ease.

In addition, Apple is also expected to ramp up the external looks of the MacBook Pro 2017 through the rumored gold variant. If this pushes through, it will match Apple's gold iPhones.

At the moment, no exact date has been indicated regarding the release of MacBook Pro 2017. Fans will also have to take this information with a grain of salt, as Apple is yet to confirm the specifications and features coming for the new laptop.
