Not content with new MacBook Pros and an external GPU, Apple on Thursday also launched new Leather Sleeves, sized for 13- and 15-inch Pros.
Both versions are meant to slip in a MacBook vertically, and come in Midnight Blue, Saddle Brown, or Black. Apple has produced leather MacBook sleeves before, but only for 12-inch MacBooks.
The 13-inch Pro Leather Sleeve costs $179, and should ship starting next week. The 15-inch Sleeve has been announced but isn't yet on Apple's website.
The new MacBook Pro line supports configurations with six-core processors and up to 32 gigabytes of RAM. Apple also promises a quieter keyboard, and on some models a True Tone display that matches ambient light color.
New 13-inch Pros start at $1,799 for a 2.3GHz quad-core i5 model with 8 gigabytes of RAM and 256 gigabytes of storage. 13-inch systems start at $2,399 for a 2.8-gigahertz quad-core i7 with 256 gigabytes of storage and a Radeon Pro 555X GPU.

Ohhh... I could make my laptop match my phone.
When are you guys going to start proofing your copy before publishing? PLEASE quit trying to rush out the article before proofing. "New 13-inch Pros start at $1,799 for a 2.3GHz quad-core i5 model with 8 gigabytes of RAM and 256 gigabytes of storage. 13-inch systems start at $2,399 for a 2.8-gigahertz quad-core i7 with 256 gigabytes of storage and a Radeon Pro 555X GPU." Should say 15-inch systems start at $2,399..... There was another on your sub-headline on the other MBP article this morning, which thankfully has been updated. This happens ALL the time and reduces the credibility of this site.
Will these work on the 2017 models also?
