iFixit's PROLED MacBook Pro Teardown Reveals Logo LEDs


iFixit today took apart Apple's touchscreen PROLED MacBook Pro to see how Apple shed weight, what powers the logo, and how it compares to the 14-inch M6 MacBook Pro. Apple added a glowing logo on the back of the PROLED MacBook Pro, but since there's no backlight to illuminate it, Apple used four LEDs, a reflective layer, and a diffuser to create an even glow. When the light is off, the logo's two-way mirror coating gives it a shiny finish.
