Maxed Lenovo Thinkpad P53 Vs Maxed Dell Precision 7540 Vs Maxed Macbook Pro 16 Inch

I believe Lenovo, Dell, and Apple make the best laptops in the world. I always get asked about the maxed possible specs for 15″-16″ laptops, so I am making a comparison between three laptops. I will be including the price before and after using a coupon. The comparison will be with the following laptops. Lenovo Thinkpad P53, Dell Precision 7540, Macbook Pro 16 Inch.

Will The New 16 inch Macbook Pro Have a USB-A Ports ?

When Apple replaced all the ports from their Macbook Pro lines to USB C, I couldn’t believe it. The reason the line is called Pro, is because it is for professional users and professional users use USB-A and SD Cards all the time. I was going to buy the new Macbook Pro back then, but then I changed my mind and decided to wait to see if the markets really adapt and switch everything to USB-C. It has been 3 years and it isn’t the case until now, and Apple themselves ship new iPhones with USB-A cables, which doesn’t make any sense. Usually Apple doesn’t go back once they take a decision, but I really hope they add USB-A to the new 16 inch Macbook Pro, because this is what the professionals such as myself are asking for. I don’t want to switch back to Windows, I just want at least 2 USB-A and SD Card Ports.

All Pro users have been alienated forcing some of them to either use expensive dongles or switch to Windows. During Steve Jobs time, the company was all about gaining students and Pro users, but it is no longer the case these days.
