As someone who has been wanting to buy a MBP for several years, the 16" MBP is the best laptop they've made since the 2015 MBP.

That being said, I agree with you. It's too large.

There's also still a lot of stuff I don't care for (bezel size, massive trackpad, still has an underwhelming keyboard, lack of port diversity, touchbar), but it's decent enough for me to pull the trigger if it were in a smaller package.

They gave us the esc key back, and moved away from the butterfly mechanism, etc. If it was just in a form factor similar to that of comparable dell/lenovos (<= 14"), I'd buy one and I feel like I'm not the only one.

That being said, I also echo the price concerns. You can easily spec out a 16" to over $3k - that's a lot for a laptop.

> It's too large.

For what it's worth, it's actually slightly smaller on every dimension than the 15" 2015 MBP, even with the extra diagonal-inch of screen space:

  358.9 mm × 247.1 mm × 18.0 mm

vs

  357.9 mm x 245.9 mm x 16.2 mm

Anyway, I'm sure the keyboard updates will make it to the 13" soon.
