It is thinner than its predecessor, made solid-state storage (SSD) standard, added HDMI, and included a high-resolution Retina display. The third-generation MacBook Pro was released in 2012: the 15-inch in June, a 13-inch model in October. Updates brought Intel Core i5 and i7 processors and introduced Intel's Thunderbolt. Called the "unibody" model because its case was machined from a single piece of aluminum, it had a thinner flush display, a redesigned trackpad whose entire surface consisted of a single clickable button, and a redesigned keyboard. The second-generation model debuted in October 2008 in 13- and 15-inch variants, with a 17-inch variant added in January 2009.
Later revisions added Intel Core 2 Duo processors and LED-backlit displays. The 15-inch model was introduced in January 2006 the 17-inch model in April. The first-generation MacBook Pro used the design of the PowerBook G4, but replaced the PowerPC G4 chips with Intel Core processors, added a webcam, and introduced the MagSafe power connector. It is currently sold with 13-inch, 14-inch, and 16-inch screens, all using variants of the Apple-designed M1 system on a chip.
Introduced in January 2006, it is the higher-end model of the MacBook family, sitting above the consumer-focused MacBook Air.

The default warranty for the MacBook is one year of coverage for parts and labor, but toll-free telephone support is limited to a mere 90 days-well short of what you'd typically find on the PC side-unless you purchase the $349 AppleCare Protection Plan, which extends phone support and repair coverage to three years.The MacBook Pro is a line of Macintosh notebook computers by by Apple Inc. We're still not fans of Apple's nearly obligatory extended warranty upsell (so much so that we've simply copied this complaint from our last MacBook review). Both systems had identical graphics cards, so we credit the CPU.ĭespite some initial concerns that the revamped MacBook Pro offered less battery life, we got an impressive 4 hours and 23 minutes with our battery drain test-that's 47 minutes more than the older version of the MacBook Pro, and 20 minutes more than the MacBook Air.
Running Quake 4 at 1,024x768, we got 88 frames per second, compared to only 65 frames per second from the 2007 version of the MacBook Pro.

The Nvidia GeForce 8600M GT graphics card allows for some basic gaming-although if you plan on playing games on the MacBook Pro, you'll probably want to install Windows on a separate partition through Boot Camp. The MacBook Air was well behind-its custom Intel Core 2 Duo CPU, designed to fit into the Air's extra-thin chassis, is slower than the typical Core 2 Duos found in most laptops. With the newest Penryn CPUs, the MacBook Po offers an excellent boost in performance over the previous mid-2007 Pro revision in our benchmark tests, although a pre-Penryn 13-inch MacBook from late 2007 was nearly as fast, reinforcing our opinion that Intel's Penryn CPUs, while more energy efficient, don't offer much of a performance boost.

The MacBook Pro remains the only laptop we can think of with a FireWire 800 jack (along with the more common FireWire 400), useful for digital video fans, but we still think adding a simple SD card slot would be a huge plus for the Pro (and let's get that on the regular 13-inch MacBook, too, while we're at it).

Modem, Ethernet, 802.11 a/b/g Wi-Fi, optional Bluetooth Stereo speakers, headphone/microphone jacksįour USB 2.0, mini-FireWire, multiformat memory card reader Stereo speakers, line-in/line-out jacks, built-in mic Despite our love for a clean look, we've also become used to having at least a few media control keys-attractive touch-sensitive media controls now regularly pop up on even the cheapest laptops. Physically, the refreshed 15-inch MacBook Pro is identical to its predecessors, still only 1 inch thick, but now that we've had time to get used to the thinner, lighter MacBook Air, it feels positively huge in comparison.īy now we're very familiar with the minimalist layout-open the lid and inside you'll find only a power button, a full-size keyboard, stereo speakers, a sizable touch pad with a single mouse button, and a built-in iSight camera.
