Our MacBook Professional thirteen evaluation tells us the Apple’s new Acer notebook, MacBook Professional thirteen, includes Intel Core i5 & i7 processors. Using the new Intel’s Sandy Bridge single-chip processors, Apple is claiming the speed has almost doubled as compared to the last year’s model. This has been possible due to the Hyper-Threading & Turbo Boost technologies used in these processors. What makes the MacBook Professional thirteen works is while it has retained the price of last year’s model, the CPU now offers much higher performance & the acer laptop battery life has also significantly improved. With almost 7 hours, the acer laptop battery life has improved by an hour when compared the last release.Like all Apple’s machines, this Acer notebook also looks beautiful with it’s aluminum unibody enclosure and the thirteen inch LED-backlit glossy widescreen display. The screen is also stunning; it has an excellent viewing angle & the colors are sharp and clear. You can watch HD videos on this Acer laptop; they look smooth, crisp & natural. Text is also very easily readable. The desktop icons stand out but also give an overall nice effect to the Graphic User Interface (GUI).
Webcam streaming is in HD and also works with FaceTime application. The new FaceTime HD camera allows the users to make 720p video calls to another MacBook user or a lower resolution call to iPhone 4 or iPod Touch users.However,acer Travelmate laptop battery, the screen resolution has not improved in this 2011 release and graphic performance still leave a lot to be desired. While the 2010 MacBook had an integrated Nvidia graphics, the 2011 release uses the Intel’s HD Graphics 3000 card. The loss may be insignificant for some users, but it surely disappoints the majority.The much-hyped feature on this sleek machine is the integration of a high-speed data/video port, Thunderbolt. This technology, being developed by Intel, promises to be the sole successor to USB, FireWire and DisplayPort. It is claimed that it will be capable of transferring data at high rates of 10 Gbps. Though there are no Thunderbolt peripherals available now, the port will sure come in handy once the technology catches on.The Backlit keyboard with well-spaced keys is very comfortable & easy to use.
The Glass Clickpad has no competition from any other vendors and is a very satisfying experience. Apple’s environment-friendly policy promises the device is free from Mercury, Arsenic, BFR and PVC. The aluminum and glass enclosures are also supposed to be recyclable & the Ethernet connection is also Energy Efficient.We end our MacBook Professional thirteen evaluation with the conclusion that due to its technology overhaul, this Acer notebook will continue to be Apple’s best-selling Acer laptop in the future.
