Apple MacBook Pro 13in (Mid 2010) review

 

Now remedied with updated drivers, the Apple MacBook Pro produced a WorldBench 6 score of exactly 100 points, so it has comparable performance to PC World Labs' reference desktop machine, with 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo E6600, nVidia 7900GS graphics and...

You can save half a kilo on the 15in version with the 13in Apple MacBook Pro, although last season’s CPU and integrated graphics means you lose the faster performance. Yet the baby MacBook Pro still offers build quality, attention to detail and...

Apple 13-inch MacBook Pro (Spring 2010) review

 

The latest crop of MacBook Pro laptops from Apple has several new features, such as a new generation of Intel processors, improved dual graphics, and increased battery life. Most of the changes, however, are relegated to the 15- and 17-inch models. The...

If you already have the previous 13-inch MacBook Pro, there's not a lot of reason to upgrade unless you simply must have the newest version of everything. The changes to the 13-inch lineup are mostly about improved graphics and battery life, and they...

Apple's 13-inch MacBook Pro (Early 2010) Reviewed: Shaking the CPU/GPU Balance

 

I'm convinced that there's no perfect mobile form factor. You can make arguments in favor of and against everything from the smartphone and tablet to 17" desktop replacement notebooks. There's simply a time and a place for everything.

Review Apple MacBook Pro 13" 2010-04 2.66 GHz Notebook

 

Graphics Update. With the newest update to the MBP13 family, Appl

Excellent unibody chassis; Very good input devices; Long battery life; Quiet during normal use with Mac OS X

Reflective display; Few options for connectivity; No UMTS; Expensive premium for more powerful version; Utilizes an "older" generation processor

Actually the competition comes mostly from in-house - the cheaper entry-level 2.4 GHz version as well as the white MacBook are both worth a look. In the world of Windows the more powerful and more expensive Sony Vaio Z11 available with Core-i...

Apple MacBook Pro 13-inch (April 2010)

 

Without the upgrade to Intel's new processors, the smallest in the MacBook Pro range sits a step behind its higher-powered, bigger-screened siblings.

Strong battery life ; Improved Nvidia graphics

Still uses a Core 2 Duo processor ; No new ports added ; Expensive compared with Core i3 laptops

Review: Apple 13-inch MacBook Pro (Spring 2010)

 

While Apple's new 15- and 17-inch MacBook Pro laptops feature new Core i5 and i7 processors, improved dual graphics, and increased battery life, the 13-inch MacBook Pros remain remain the most similar to the previous generation. The least expensive...

The new MacBook Pros have the same Multi-Touch glass trackpad as before, but the line adds a new trick. All of the new MacBook Pros (including the 13-inch models) now have inertial scrolling. Just like on an iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad, swipe your...
