The laptop encountered a rough patch in 2016 with the introduction of the Touch Bar, part of a major redesign. The new look brought a thinner chassis, alterations to the keyboard, a larger trackpad, Touch ID, and the removal of all ports except the Thunderbolt ports and a headphone jack. The Touch Bar itself divided opinions, with some users praising its innovation while others found it less practical. Apple eventually phased out the Touch Bar with the latest 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models but retained it in the 13-inch MacBook Pro.
