The new MacBook Pro features a precision unibody enclosure created from a single chunk of aluminum – a thin and lightweight mobile computing workhorse and a true engineering achievement The new MacBook Pro is less than 1 inch thin and just weighs 4.5 pounds, and it is highly durable. It includes a 13.3-inch, LED-backlit glass display (instead of an LCD panel), plus a glass trackpad that doesn’t include a button (for larger tracking area) that features Apple’s Multi-Touch technology.
Visually, the Macbook Pro 15 is not that much bigger than the Macbook Pro 13 but, you will *perceive* the 15.4″ Macbook as being significantly bigger than the 13.3″ on your lap. This is something to consider when choosing between both.
Apple has combined advanced NVIDIA integrated graphics technology with an Intel Core 2 Duo processor. As a result, the 13-inch Apple MacBook Pro is faster than ever. MacBook Pro will keep you working longer without the power cords with a longer battery life of up to 10 hours.
MacbBook Pro is the most powerful 13-inch MacBook, with 4 GB of memory and a 250 GB hard drive now standard. It also comes pre-loaded with Apple’s Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard operating system. THis operating system is custom-designed for the advanced technology inside (and it also comes with the iLife ‘09 suite of applications, including iPhoto, iMovie, GarageBand, and iTunes).
A New Standard for Performance and Portability
With the 1066 MHz frontside bus and 3 MB of shared L2 cache of the Intel Core 2 Duo processor, all your applications will run faster and more efficiently than you thought possible. The 13-inch MacBook Pro also features the new NVIDIA GeForce 320M integrated graphics processor with 48 processing cores–three times as many as before. This results in a huge difference when using 3D games and graphics-intensive applications. And when you’re not, you’ll benefit from a new energy-efficient architecture that uses up to 40 percent less power for everyday tasks like writing email and surfing the web.
The new MacBook Pro features advanced NVIDIA integrated graphics technology along with a quicker Intel Core 2 Duo processor. That makes for the ultimate combination of performance, portability, and battery life up to 10 hours – without adding an ounce to the slimmest, lightest MacBook Pro.
Unibody Design
Most of you are probably familiar with the Apple unibody design, which is carved from a solid bloc of aluminum. However, if you have not held a Macbook Pro in your hand, you might not know how ultra-rigid the unibody frame is. I tried the magnesium and carbon-fiber casing, and I can tell you that this feels much more solid. It gives a very reassuring feel when holding it.
Traditionally, laptops are made from multiple parts. With the MacBook Pro all of those parts with just one part-the breakthrough unibody enclosure. Every MacBook Pro starts its life as a single block of aluminum, which is precisely machined into the basic unibody design. Another pass and the unibody takes shape. Another, and the integrated keyboard emerges. When you pick up a new MacBook Pro, you immediately notice the entire enclosure is thinner and lighter. It feels strong and durable – perfect for life inside (and outside) your briefcase or backpack.
Battery up to 10 hours
The new energy-efficient architecture in every MacBook Pro, along with automatic graphics switching, gives you dramatically longer battery life. On a single charge, the battery in the new 13-inch MacBook Pro lasts up to 10 hours. You will get up to 1,000 full charge and discharge cycles – that’s nearly three times the lifespan of typical laptop batteries. Advanced chemistry and Adaptive Charging allow the battery to maintain charging capabilities longer and determine the optimal way to charge the battery’s cells. Because the battery lasts up to five years, MacBook Pro uses just one battery in the same time a typical laptop uses three. That makes for less waste. And that, in turn, makes for one environmentally friendly battery.
Because Apple makes both the hardware and the software for the MacBook, they’re designed to work together to produce a smarter product that uses less electricity. The display is designed to dim when you enter a darkened room. To reduce energy consumption, the hard drive spins down automatically when inactive. MacBook also decides which processor–CPU or GPU–is best suited to efficiently perform a task.
LED-Backlit Display
LCD displays typically use cold cathode fluorescent lamps, or CCFLs, to create light and project a picture onto a screen, and this creates two problems–the lamps require more space and they take more time to warm up to full brightness. The MacBook Pro uses LED backlight technology to create the same amount of brightness in less space. Unlike fluorescent lamps, an LED backlight reaches maximum brightness instantly. Finally, a new, smaller iSight camera is concealed behind the display for quick access to video chats and snapping pics for uploading to social networks, such as Facebook or Twitter.
Additionally, conventional CCFL displays use mercury to create a backlight and arsenic to prevent irregularities in the glass. The LED-backlit display on the MacBook Pro, on the other hand, is both mercury- and arsenic-free. LED backlight technology also conserves energy: This display requires up to 30 percent less power than a CCFL display.
Apple MacBook Pro meets the stringent low power requirements set by the EPA, giving it ENERGY STAR qualification. ENERGY STAR 5.0 sets significantly higher efficiency limits for power supplies and aggressive limits for the computer’s typical annual power consumption.
Pre-Loaded with Mac OS X Snow Leopard and iLife ‘09
MacBook Pro gives you more options for high-performance graphics, starting with the new NVIDIA GeForce 320M integrated graphics processor in the 13-inch model. It’s up to 80 percent faster than the previous generation and is even more energy-efficient for everyday tasks like writing email and surfing the web.

Apple MacBook Pro has an immaculate LED-backlit display with wide-angle viewing and a color gamut usually seen only on a desktop display. Whether you aree watching a movie or making one, you’ve got the perfect canvas. The ultrathin seamless glass enclosure makes the display strong and durable. And because it’s power efficient and free of mercury and arsenic, this display is greener than ever. Apple MacBook Pro has advanced Intel Core 2 Duo processors. It also comes standard with a large hard drive offering up to 250 or 320GB of storage capacity, so there’s plenty of room for your photo libraries, video projects, and files. And of course all MacBook Pros come standard with Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard Operating System and iLife.
Multi-Touch Trackpad
With no button on the durable glass trackpad, there’s more room to track and click. Without a separate button, the spacious trackpad gives your hands plenty of room to move on the large, silky glass surface. It also incorporates Multi-Touch gestures–including swipe, pinch, rotate, and four-finger swipe–and even more natural inertial scrolling–an intuitive way to scroll through large photo libraries, lengthy documents and long web sites. If you’re coming from a right-click world, you can right-click with two fingers or configure a right-click area on the trackpad.
The trackpads on the Macbook Pro line of product have to be the biggest trackpads out there. The best thing about them is that they use a glass surface, while most laptops have a plastic surface. The glass trackpad is very smooth and your fingers basically slide much more easily and comfortably than on a plastic pad. Also, Apple made it really big because there are many multi-touch gestures available – some on Windows too. There are no apparent buttons, but the whole surface can be clicked on (it is a real mechanical clic), and you can also set zones (like lower-right = right click). To conclude on the trackpad, Apple has implemented multi-touch, but also an inertial scrolling that makes the Macbook behave like an iPhone when scrolling up and down.
