The trackpad is large and full of functionality, offering various gestures that you might be familiar with if you use an iPhone, such as pinch to zoom.

The keyboard is full-sized and typing on it is pleasant, although it felt a little spongy compared to the Apple keyboard we were used to using, and we felt we had to press harder than we were used to in order for the keys to register. The eye-catching Retina display – which is standard across all Apple laptops, bar the MacBook Air – is stunning. It comes in a darker, iPhone-inspired Space Grey, or a classic silver finish. That might sound like a big leap, but when you consider that you get a bigger screen as well as the quad-core processor and discrete graphics then it makes the 15-inch look a bargain in comparison (and perhaps that is the point of that 13-inch model).Īs you’d expect from an Apple laptop, the 13-inch MacBook Pro has a premium design. However those extra features come at a price: the entry-level 2.8GHz 15-inch Kaby Lake MacBook Pro costs £2,349, which is another £400 on top of the price of the top-of-the-range 13-inch model. Considering that the MacBook has a comparable price for a lower-spaced machine, the 13-inch MacBook Pro looks like a good deal.Īs for the top of the range 13-inch model, we think that at £1,949 this might be a bit overpriced given the fact that it’s not got discrete graphics or a quad-core processor like it’s larger siblings. In terms of the 13-inch model, the new entry-level price drop is refreshing (or rather, the removal of the older 2015 model and the introduction of the new 2017 model at the same price).

3.5GHz Kaby Lake i7 dual-core processor + £270/$300.

3.3GHz Kaby Lake i5 dual-core processor + £90/$100.

But if you are a creative pro looking for a powerful machine to match your graphics needs you aren’t going to find what you want in the 13-inch MacBook Pro.īest Prices Today: Apple 13in MacBook Pro (2017)

If you are a user who needs a decent amount of power but you are baulking at the price of the 15-inch MacBook Pro the 13-inch model may well suffice, and if you need a bigger screen you can just plug it into a separate display. The MacBook is also the lighter laptop, if it’s portability you are after – although it has to be said, the Pro is a lot lighter than it was back in 2015.Īnd you do get a lot more in terms of specs from the 13-inch MacBook Pro and we think that makes the machine better value for money than the MacBook. And the same goes for Apple’s consumer-oriented creative apps. That said, in terms of your standard Office apps, such as Apple’s Pages, Numbers and Keynote, but also the Microsoft Office software, we don’t think anyone would be better off with a MacBook Pro than a MacBook.
