The new MacBook Pro delivers outstanding performance, advanced capabilities, and unique portable features only found on an Apple notebook. And best of all, this performance and cutting-edge feature set is designed into an extremely mobile enclosure so that you can have power without pounds.
On the outside, MacBook Pro maintains our patented precision aluminium unibody enclosure. Carved from a single block of aluminium, the unibody design provides a seamless workspace with beautiful contours.
On the left side of every MacBook Pro, we can see that it has a full range of ports offering the ultimate in expansion.On the other side, there is a built-in SuperDrive.MacBook Pro comes in three display sizes: 13-inch, 15-inch, and 17-inch. So there is something for everyone.
The latest Intel Core i5 and i7 processors bring a new single chip micro-architecture, an enhanced turbo boost technology, faster 1333MHz memory, plus all the features from the previous Core models including hyper-threading, an integrated memory controller and L3 cache.
To understand how far we’ve come with processor technology, let’s look at the previous generation of dual-core Intel processor architecture.
At the heart of Intel’s latest generation Core technology is a single chip micro-architecture that integrates the processor, cache, memory controller and graphics on a single chip. The close proximity of all these components accelerates data transfer for super-fast performance.
The direct connection of memory to processor gives faster access to data stored in memory, so each core spends its time much more productively — crunching data, not waiting for it to arrive.
And for the first time, the graphics use 32nm technology and share L3 cache with the processor. This means that the architecture is not only faster, but also more energy efficient which means you get great performance and long battery life.
When it comes to graphics performance, the new MacBook Pro takes a major leap forward with all-new graphics. It features the latest Intel integrated graphics processor — and all-new high-performance AMD discrete graphics on the 15-inch and 17-inch models. Thanks to Intel’s new micro-architecture, the graphics processor is on the same chip as the central processor and has direct access to L3 cache. That proximity translates into faster performance for every MacBook Pro. Intel HD Graphics 3000 is both fast and energy efficient. The graphics processor is dynamic and automatically increases clock speeds for higher workloads. An integrated hardware encoder enables HD video calls with FaceTime, and a decoder gives you long battery life when you’re watching video.
Intel’s fastest integrated graphics yet has more than enough horsepower to get the job done, whether you’re organising your photo library, editing video, creating presentations, or playing games.
Every Mac comes with 90 days of telephone technical support and one year of service coverage at an Apple-authorised repair centre. By purchasing the AppleCare Protection Plan with your Mac, you can extend your coverage to three years from the computer’s purchase date. We recommend that you purchase the AppleCare Protection Plan when you purchase your computer to take maximum advantage of the coverage the plan provides.
