Research notes (unverified)
- Apple T2 chip. The SSD controller, audio, FaceTime camera, ambient light sensor, Touch Bar, keyboard and trackpad are reached through the T2 bridge (apple-bce binds on real Linux machines).
- Booting a non-Apple OS requires Startup Security Utility (in Recovery) set to "No Security" and "Allow booting from external or removable media". The Broadcom Wi-Fi/Bluetooth chip needs Apple's firmware files.
- Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) ports only, plus a headphone jack. Touch Bar and Touch ID on every model.
- 16-inch with a scissor-switch keyboard, physical Escape key and 3072x1920 True Tone display. MacBookPro16,4 is the build-to-order Radeon Pro 5600M (Navi 12, HBM2) model sold from June 2020.
- Two GPUs: Intel UHD Graphics 630 and a discrete AMD Radeon Pro 5300M or 5500M (Navi 14, 1002:7340, amdgpu).
