Gotta love that new Mac smell, but just how new is this Pro? Get a whiff of these specs:

13.3” LED-backlit IPS Retina display with 2560 × 1600 resolution (227 dpi), P3 wide color gamut

3.1 GHz Kaby Lake dual-core Intel Core i5 (Turbo Boost up to 3.5 GHz)

8 GB of 2133 MHz LPDDR3 SDRAM

256 GB PCIe-based SSD

Integrated Intel Iris Plus Graphics 650

Four Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) ports and 3.5 mm headphone port

802.11ac Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.2

Thanks to prior experience, we've got the obnoxious suction-prying-sliding maneuver down, and we pop this little guy open in no time.

Once the oyster is cracked, and the pearl revealed, we get some serious deja vu.

Compare the MacBook Pro 13" Touch Bar 2017 (second)...

... to the MacBook Pro 13" Touch Bar 2016 (third).

Everything looks pretty much the same to us, right down to the 49.2 Wh battery.

The only difference we spot is the finish on the fans. Looks like the 4K iMac got the real refresh juice this year.

We pick some cuffs out of this notebook and turn them into some mustaches. Here are the secrets within:

Intel Core i5-7267U processor with Intel Iris Plus Graphics 650

Intel® JHL6540 Thunderbolt™ 3 Controller

SanDisk SDRQKBDC4 064G 64 GB NAND flash memory (x2 for a total of 128 GB on this side of the board)

Samsung K4E6E304EB-EGCG LPDDR3 DRAM (4 x 2 GB for 8 GB total)

Texas Instruments SN650839 power management, and TI/Stellaris LM4FS1EH SMC Controller (replacement codename for TM4EA231)

SK Hynix H9CKNNN4GTATMR-NTH memory with custom SSD controller layered underneath (likely)

Murata/Apple 339S00056 Wi-Fi Module

On the opposite side we find:

2x SanDisk SDRQKBDC4 064G 64 GB NAND flash storage (as seen in the 2016 Escape Edition's removable SSD)—bringing the total to 256 GB

APL1023/343S00736 (likely the custom Apple T1 chip that pairs with the Touch Bar) and (Apple?) 338S00193-A1 (probably both power management)

2x Texas Instruments TI CD3215C00 USB-C controller (+2 on the other side)

Intersil ISL95828 PWM controller for Intel CPUs (likely)

Texas Instruments HD3SS215 6.0 Gbps HDMI DisplayPort 2:1/1:2 Differential Switch

Macronix MX25L6473EZNI-10G Serial Flash Memory

NXP 66V10 (PN66V ?) NFC controller, containing Secure Element 008 and NXP PN549 (as seen in the iPhone 6s)

IC Identification, continued:

Texas Instruments TPS51980A power management and likely Renesas battery charger

Texas Instruments TPS51916 DDR memory power supply

Cirrus Logic/Analog Devices audio codec and amplifier (likely)

Texas Instruments TMPxxx temperature sensor (assumption)

Vishay SiC635 power stage

Serial Flash and EEPROM Memory (likely)

Apple SSD power management (assumption)

Here's the layout, such as it is, replete with mustaches!

For more detailed teardowns of the hardware in this device, consult the previous generation's teardown or even the past-gen one with more keys, if you fancy.
