On my 2015 MacBook Pro I could put the laptop display to sleep using a small, weak magnet on the left side of the case. I did this to use my external display as the only monitor.
I’m not sure if this still works on the 2016 with Touch Bar.
Esta é uma boa pergunta?

Hmm, where is that on the outside case?

Apple uses strong neodymium magnets, however, with your Mac booted .. even to the login screen … move the magnet (on a piece of paper towel so you don’t scratch the surface) around the outer top of the Top Case until you find the sensor location (i.e. until it goes to sleep) … it will work.

On my MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2017), I needed two magnets - one on each side - to make it think the lid was closed.
I was able to do this by placing the magnets on the speaker grilles on each side, a little way down from the thunderbolt ports.
It seems likely they have added a second sensor to avoid the computer suspending by accident if you move a magnetic object close to it.
