PHOTO EDITOR MACBOOK MOVIE
Battery life is 9hrs+ with non-stop movie running. And it runs cool most of the time unless you really tax the processor. It's runs silently even when the fans are on. It's quick to startup, launch applications, import and download files. It's just way faster working with a mouse/trackpad.įor photo editing, I use Lightroom 5, handling just slightly over a hundred photos each time. The iPad just quite can't cut it for blogging just yet for the simple reason that it lacks a mouse. I'm using it for blogging and photo editing. But it's also definitely much lighter than the Macbook Pro. Many users claim they can't feel the weight, but it's definitely there. The 11.6-inch weighs 1.08kg and the 13 inch 1.35kg. There are two USB 3 ports, a Thunderbolt port, and only the 13-inch models come with the SDXC card slot. These are all the different standard configurations: The higher end model, you can configure for more storage up to 512GB. 1.3GHz dual-core Intel Core i5 processorĬonfigurable on the Apple online store are the processor up to 1.7Ghz and 8GB RAM.Mine's the standard configuration for the 13-inch model that Apple released in June 2013. The review will be based on my experience using it for days during my recent Spain trip. But I will compared it to the Mac Mini (2012) that is my current workstation. There's not going to be any numbers or benchmarking in this review.
