Apple has updated their MacBook and MacBook Pro lines of notebooks with Kaby Lake CPUs, optional 16GB of RAM for all models, and improved dedicated graphics for the 15-inch MacBook Pro. The base model MacBook Pro 13 also saw a price-drop to US$1299.

And here I thought they would wait for sure the upcoming Coffee Lake, 15W, quad core CPU. At the longest is gonna be in 2-4 month, and the performance increase would have been 30-40% from the 15W skylakes of the 13".
Again apple, I'm displeased by your timing' put a 9 month old CPU regarded as the most boring refresh ever just to have it again "obsolete" in less than a quarter.

I was looking forward to seeing 32 GB of RAM in the 15 inch Macbook pro. Or a real pro model with twoUSB 3.1 gen. 2 ports and NO touch bar but a bigger battery in return. But alas, I keep on waiting or a reason to upgrade.
