About this deal

Externally, this notebook has an integrated 720p FaceTime HD webcam, a revised "third generation" butterfly mechanism keyboard with an integrated "Touch Bar" with a touch-sensitive control that adapts for different applications and provides Touch ID login support in lieu of traditional function keys, and a gigantic "Force Touch" trackpad. This notebook also packs 8 GB of onboard 2133 MHz LPDDR3 SDRAM (which could be upgraded to 16 GB at the time of purchase, but cannot be upgraded later), 256 GB or 512 GB of flash storage, and an integrated Intel Iris Plus Graphics 655 graphics processor that shares memory with the system. This is a noticeable weakness compared with full-screen touch control in Windows 10, which offers a more consistent experience across all apps thanks to the operating system's native touch support. There are tons of other reviews that go deep into the benchmarks and differences, but the easiest way to explain is to look at the TDP of the Intel CPU in each.

Apple did make a small change to the design in 2017 but it wasn’t until 2018 that we got our first big change when Apple added a silicone membrane that would keep debris out of the key switch and prevent them from breaking. Support for 4K video output via HDMI was added but limited the maximum number of external displays from three to two. Dig deeper, though, and you find an exquisitely designed ultraportable that performs very well on everyday computing tasks, has good looks to spare, and will almost certainly last all day without being plugged in.

Alongside the redesigned M2 MacBook Air, Apple refreshed the 14 and 16-inch MacBook Pros powered by either the M2 Pro or M2 Max chip in January of 2023.

The 13-inch model has a trackpad that is 46% larger than its predecessor while the 15-inch model has a trackpad twice as large as the Retina models. This CPU supports multi-threading, which means each core can handle two instruction threads at a time, for a maximum of eight, a boon to modern apps written to take advantage of as many cores and threads as possible. It also consolidates many discrete controllers, including the system management controller, audio controller and SSD controller, into one. They are pretty much the same as on the 2018 models, so they are much better when compared to the 2017 MacBook Pros. On July 12, 2018, Apple updated the Touch Bar models with Intel Coffee Lake quad-core processors in 13-inch models and six-core processors in 15-inch models, updated graphics cards, third-generation butterfly keyboards that introduced new symbols for the control and option keys, Bluetooth 5, T2 SoC Chip, True Tone display technology, and larger-capacity batteries.In September 2019, India's Directorate General of Civil Aviation said MacBook Pro computers could dangerously overheat, leading the national carrier Air India to ban the model on its flights. The keys on this 2019 model seem to still have that membrane but it appears to be made out of sturdier nylon which means that in theory the reliability issues should be resolved. Now, as the 2019 model is still part of Apple’s 3rd generation of MacBook Pros, which launched in 2016, they also have the exact same design as the 2016 models.

inches (HWD) and weighs 3 pounds, admirable dimensions that won't needlessly weigh down your backpack or handbag. Prior to its discontinuation it was Apple's only product to still include an optical drive and a FireWire port, and only notebook with a hard disk drive and Ethernet port. In what will be a consistent pattern, all of the systems performed similarly on the Cinebench test with the exception of the MacBook Air, which uses a very different ultra-low-power version of Intel's Core i5. The 13” MacBook Pro 50 minutes to export the project, compared to just 17 minutes and 52 seconds on the 2019 15” MacBook Pro or 26 minutes on a 2017 15” MacBook Pro.

Still, the MacBook Pro will end up turning heads in the end, thanks to the iconic half-eaten piece of fruit emblazoned in the middle of the display lid. I then upgraded to a 2013 15” MacBook Pro and I now haven’t used a 13” MacBook as my daily driver for 6 years, as I had never found them to be sufficient for what I wanted to use them for which was content creation.

Now, something that not a lot of reviewers talk about is that this is also a 16:10 aspect ratio display, rather than the traditional 16:9.
