Although the performance of Apple’s new MacBook Pro is very powerful, and the M1 Pro and M1 Max chips make people feel in awe of Apple’s hardware research and development capabilities, the new MacBook Pro can’t make everyone like it – at least that carefree bangs, really Too unappetizing.
The new MacBook Pro uses a very high-quality screen, but on the upper edge of the screen, Apple unceremoniously placed a big bang. According to the frame width of the MacBook Pro, even if you don’t use bangs, you can put down the camera. Why is MacBook Pro so obsessed with bangs’ design? Could it be just to keep up with the iPhone? Whatever the reason, this is unacceptable.
What’s more frustrating is that the bangs of the MacBook Pro actually affect the use! macOS is not optimized for these bangs, the bangs on the screen will actually cover the content displayed on the screen! Move the mouse to the bangs, you can find that the bangs can cover the mouse.
Although the location of the MacBook Pro bangs is the menu bar of macOS, the general software will not have enough menu options to let the bangs block the content, but the menu bar of macOS also takes into account the function of information display.
For example, users can use some A tool that displays the running status of CPU, network, etc. on it. At this time, bangs often block information, which can be said to be quite in the way.
MacBook Pro bangs design is too anti-human, what should I do? We may need a gadget called “Liu Haier Completion Plan”.
The official website of Liu Haier Completion Program:

As the name suggests, this is a gadget to save MacBook Pro bangs. Its use is very simple, just unzip and run after downloading. According to the author’s statement in v2ex (original post address), for some unknown reason, the Apple Store refused to list it on the grounds that it did not conform to human-computer interaction.
After running the Liu Haier completion plan, as long as you move the mouse under the bangs, the content covered by the bangs will automatically pop up, and the effect is like the animation below.
Without a doubt, this is a must-have on a MacBook Pro for those who like to have a bunch of gadgets in the macOS menu bar! Although this Liu Haier Completion Plan is compact and simple in function, it can be regarded as a magic weapon to save the victims of Liu Hai and the fire and water.
I don’t know why Apple thinks it is not in line with human-computer interaction? Or does Apple feel that the current bangs are a good form of human-computer interaction? In any case, if you are also troubled by the bangs blocking the content of the MacBook Pro, you might as well give it a try.
