Apple.pro has posted new photos (via Engadget) of what are claimed to be the new MacBook casings. Apple.pro was the Chinese blog that previously posted photographs of prototype MacBook Pro casings that were later believed to be real.
The latest collection of photos reportedly depict the upcoming MacBook revision which is expected in late September. The photos depict the top half of the MacBook's casing without any electronic components. The glow-in-the-dark Apple logo remains in place in these images. The case is made of aluminum and resembles the MacBook Air casing.
Translation provided by Ken:
A bunch of (more than 10) manufacturers mailed me to ask for the
dimensions and specs of the new revision MacBook Pros.
I don't want to talk about it.
Not because I'm worried about what will happen if I talk about it.
But why should I tell you?
We have no relationship.
We don't even know each other.
At least you should ask politely.
Anyway, enough of that.
This time, my good friend Ariel brought good information.
Everyone knows already that next month lots of products will be refreshed.
Of course that includes the MacBook, which we are going to show everyone ...
Of the entire line of MacBooks (MacBook/MacBook Pro/MacBook Air), only
the MacBook (black and white) is in a plastic case.
It's about time to unify them.
From the picture below we can see
that the MacBook has also entered the world of aluminum cases.
Along with its two big brothers it has changed to an aluminum case.
Everyone can also pay attention to the corners.
Right now Apple loves to do stuff like this.
Everyone wants to know if the Apple logo on the cover lights up.
The picture below should make this clear,
without needing me to say much.
As for the next two pictures,
I'm going to hold out a bit for now,
and everyone can just continue to wait for my reports.
And if Macrumors this time thinks that these are fake,
then all I can say is that you are blind!
