(L-R): MacBook Pro 2021 (14-inch), MacBook Pro 2020 (13-inch) (Image credit: Henry T. Sure, no notch would be better, but it's a decent compromise. Look at the 14-inch MacBook Pro side by side with the 13-inch 2020 MacBook Pro, and tell me you'd take the latter, with its smaller screen and thicker bezels. The only other 'new' change is that the left and right vents, for heat and audio, are larger than before.

Thankfully, the MacBook Pro 2021 notch fail could finally be getting fixed via an OS update that will be available to all customers soon. Tech enthusiast Quinn Nelson explained that he had issues with the iStat Menus utility when the Menu Bar options on the left and the icons on the right hit a breaking point. Unfortunately, the MacBook Pro notch had become a problem for some. The thinner bezels allow Apple to move the Menu Bar to the freed up space, and the notch only drops down far enough to be in that menu bar. I've already gotten used to it, and I'm more than accepting of it. It's 0.4 inches tall, and it's impossible to miss, at first sight that is. Yes, the little black rectangular space for cameras in the iPhone made it to the top-center of the MacBook Pro display. There is one exception, though: Apple gave the MacBook Pro a notch. The Dell XPS 13 with OLED has similarly small bezels, and for longer, as its computers have had InfinityEdge display panels for years. Now, they measure a little more than 0.1 inches, down from the 0.5-inch (top) and 0.3-inch (side) bezels of the last three years. More importantly, though, Apple's shrunk (most) of the MacBook Pro's bezels. This year? Nearly everything's different, as Apple's thrown out the tapered lid for a flat top, and even engraved 'MacBook Pro' on the bottom. For years, the MacBook Pro got very small, and pretty boring updates. The 14-inch MacBook Pro 2021 isn't just a new size for Apple's high-end laptops, it's also a part of a new era.

Lighter than Razer Blade 14 and heavier than XPS 13 OLED.

Thinner bezels arrive with a notch in tow.

Plus, you can upgrade to a super-high 64GB of RAM and up to 8TB of internal storage. The big story here is that the 14-inch MacBook Pro can still be customized with the M1 Max chip also seen in the MacBook Pro 2021 (16-inch).
