Apple MacBook Pro 15in (2018) review: DisplayĪside from higher overall specifications, the main reason to pick up the 15in MacBook Pro over its 13in cousin is the extra screen real-estate that comes with an increased footprint. Other manufacturers, take note: this is how all trackpads should be. The trackpad also remains unchanged - it's still huge and expansive, with great feedback and excellent gesture support. The addition of this protective measure should also ensure that the newer MacBook Pros have a longer lifespan than their predecessors, which is definitely good news.

Unfortunately, it has made the feedback a little bit less defined, but it's still a total joy to use and is firmly in our top three keyboards ever. While we didn't think there was much of a difference at first, it's immediately apparent when you compare it side-by-side with the previous model that it is noticeably quieter. This is supposedly to make the keys quieter (because heaven knows the previous model was all but deafening) but is in actuality designed to prevent dust and other particulate matter gumming up the keyboard - an issue which has caused widespread hardware failures. One of the comparatively few changes Apple has made to the most recent iteration of the MacBook Pro is a new keyboard, which now features a membrane underlay between the keycaps and the butterfly switches.

On the plus side, Apple's signature aluminium unibody chassis maintains its feeling of high-quality, sturdy reliability.
#Macbook pro 2018 reviews portable
It's not quite as portable as the LG Gram but it's much more slender than other 15in laptops including the Surface Book 2 and Dell XPS 15. It may be 1.6cm thick and 1.8kg heavy, but it's still perfectly portable and fits easily in any reasonably sized bag without being too overbearing.

But even though the design is simple and wastes no space, it still strikes you as something took a great deal of time to perfect and it's unquestionably the most aesthetically pleasing laptop we've ever tested. The design is truly minimalist with clean-cut lines and with a total absence of the unnecessary. Still sexy and sleek, it sports the 2017 model's chassis and if it followed in the iPhone's naming evolution, it would be the MacBook Pro 4S. The timeless MacBook design has gone unchanged from the previous iteration, not that it needed to.
