Yes, you read that right: 2016<\/strong>, which means it has been seven years. That means no updated webcam, thick bezels, no MagSafe, and the much-criticized Touch Bar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, yes, Apple should immediately discontinue the 13-inch MacBook Pro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"M2 MacBook Pro 13 Review - Don&#039;t Choose Wrong!\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/VgSk9k9jo4M?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It had a great opportunity to quietly cancel it with the introduction of the 15-inch MacBook Air and the price drop of the 13-inch Air. At the very least, they could have reduced the price. But they didn&#8217;t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, come on, Apple. Now that we have the 15-inch MacBook Air, there is no reason to buy the 13-inch MacBook Pro. <strong>They are identical in price and performance, even though the 15-inch MacBook Air is better in every imaginable aspect<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If people want to buy it at a discounted price from third-party sellers, they are more than welcome to do so. <strong>But it is misleading for Apple to continue selling it<\/strong>.
