You’d needs to crack open the 2017 MacBook Pro to see what really separates it from last year’s model. You can hook up a pair of headphones, as the good ol’ 3.5mm port is still present and correct, but the speakers are decent enough for just about anything other than critical listening or audio production.ĪPPLE MACBOOK PRO (2017) PERFORMANCE & BATTERY LIFE They can really pump out sound, too, with ample volume and clear vocals. The last-gen 13in MacBook Pro didn’t have room at the sides of the keyboard for speakers, but Apple has managed to squeeze a pair in here. Colours are decent enough, but even brightly-lit shots come out a little grainy – not what you’d expect given the price.Īt least audio is on par with the screen. The 0.7MP FaceTime HD camera built into the screen bezel could be better, though. If there’s a better quality laptop screen, I haven’t seen it.īrightness is impressive as well: Apple says it can hit an eyeball-searing 500nits, but whatever the figure, I could work on it outdoors and still see everything onscreen clearly. Graphics pros will be more than happy with complete sRGB coverage, too. It really shows, with brilliantly bright hues, crisp pure whites and deep, inky blacks all sharing screen time together. It covers the DCI-P3 wide colour gamut, y’see – the same colour space all of today’s blockbuster films are mastered in. Photos and videos are bursting with detail, but it’s colour vibrancy and accuracy where the screen really stands out. The 13.3in panel is absolutely bursting with detail, and even the macOS desktop looks pin-sharp. OK, so it might not take the overall resolution crown, but the MacBook Pro’s 2560×1600 pixels are plenty, thank you very much.
