The rumor DOES make sense:

1.  This year's chip for the Pro models is the 18 PRO.  There's no way they'd drop an 18 PRO in the base models next year.  That would be too confusing.

2.  Apple needs to combat perceptions that the base models are just "yesterday's tech."  Instead, watch for a 19 BIONIC in the base models, and a 19 PRO in the pro models.

It makes sense.

If the MacBooks actually get a Dynamic Island, maybe that means that FACE ID is coming with it!  That would be awesome!  (I have no idea why the notch cut-out on the current MacBooks is currently so wide.)

What this article fails to explain is this:  What's the big deal if Apple creates its own 5G chip vs. uses a chip developed by another company?

I am also exited about the macro capability, which is the reason I'm thinking of upgrading from an 11 Pro Max.

Were those real iPhone 11 Pro’s in the video or mocks-ups?  The reason I ask is that the camera bump looks different than what I recalled seeing at the launch video.
