Notable KGI analyst Ming-Chi Kou recently said that Apple is working on a new 15-inch MacBook Pro, which is expected to hit the market in the last quarter of this year. Another interesting tidbit of information from Kou is that the MacBook will pack a massive 32GB of RAM.

Apple is yet to release a MacBook model with 32GB of memory. Even the high-end models of its famed notebook only has 16GB of RAM. However, if Kou is right, which most of the time he is, Apple will be able to push the boundaries of its MacBook Pro models beyond the current restrictions imposed by memory system designs.

MacRumors noted that a MacBook Pro model with 32GB of RAM will surely appeal to more hardcore users, especially professionals who use RAM intensive applications like photo editor, graphics creator, and video editing software.

According to Venture Beat, Kou also believes that Apple will start to integrate Intel's Kaby Lake processors into some of its high-end MacBook models expected to roll out this year. He also thinks that the 12-inch MacBook model will be the first to be powered by an Intel Kaby Lake chip and is also expected to have at least 16GB of memory, which is double the capacity of current 12-iinch MacBook model.

In addition to these impressive sets of upgrades, the 2016 MacBook Pro has received the recommendation from Consumer Reports. The consumer watchdog rescinded its initial decision after Apple addressed some important details that Consumer Reports pointed when it first declined to give the approval.
