Apple’s Cupertino–based tech giant unveiled new models to its MacBook Pros range of laptop PCs last month in what can only be characterized as its quietest product launch ever. The MacBook Pro 2018 features have been labeled “the most sophisticated Mac notebook ever” by Apple. Previous generations of the MacBook Pro featured excellent design, software, and hardware properties, but the MacBook Pro 2018 features have been dubbed “the most advanced Mac notebook ever” by Apple. Ready to see what the most powerful MacBook Pros are made of, ladies and gentlemen? — although briefly.

Design

The 2018 MacBook Pros are known for their exceptionally gorgeous and sleek design, and it’s fantastic to see that this trend continues.

The MacBook Pro 2018 is identical to its predecessors in terms of size, shape, and weight. The MacBook Pro 2018 comes in two screen sizes: 13- and 15-inches, just like previous models.

The redesigned keyboard is another standout element of the MacBook Pro 2018.

The new Mac’s keyboard is described as a “third-generation keyboard,” with a silicone membrane that reduces noise generated by the keypads when typing.

The silicone membrane design not only keeps the keys quiet, but it also keeps dust out of the way.

The Touch Bar is a touch-sensitive panel with a resolution of 2170 x 60 pixels that displays context-sensitive buttons and shortcuts depending on the app currently in use.

The Touch Bar was initially introduced with the 2016 MacBook Pros, and it has gotten mixed reviews and reactions. The PC’s fingerprint scanner is located next to the Touch Bar.

Display

When compared to its predecessors, the new MacBook Pros’ displays haven’t seen much change. The “True Tone” function, which automatically adjusts the screen color to match the ambient light in the surrounding surroundings, is the only new feature to get excited about the display.

Processor

On the basis of CPU and storage, the 15-inch MacBook Pro ’18 is available in two models: the first has a 2.2GHz six-core Intel Core i7 (8th Gen) with 16GB of DDR4 RAM, while the second has a 2.9GHz six-core Intel Core i9 (8th Gen) with discrete Radeon Pro (4GB of video memory) and 32GB of RAM.

The Core i7 model of the 15-inch model comes with 256GB, 512GB, 1TB, 2TB, or 4TB of built-in storage, while the Core i9 model has 256GB, 512GB, 1TB, or 2TB.

On the other hand, the 13-inch variant is available in two CPU and storage configurations: A 2.3GHz quad-core Intel Core i5 (8th Gen) processor with 8GB RAM and a 2.7GHz quad-core Intel Core i7 (8th Gen) processor with 16GB RAM are both available.

Both models of the 13-inch MacBook Pro 2018 come with four different storage options: 256GB, 512GB, 1TB, and 2TB.

Users will be blown away by overall performance, as Apple claims the new MacBook Pros will be twice as fast as the previous iteration.

Battery

The built-in batteries in the 13- and 15-inch MacBook Pros are 58 WHr and 83.6 WHr, respectively. While Apple claims that the battery can last up to 10 hours, don’t be disappointed if you don’t get that much out of it because it all depends on how and how intensely you use it.

Macbook Pro Price and Availability

The 13-inch MacBook Pro costs roughly 540,000 Naira in Nigeria, while the 15-inch MacBook Pro costs around 650,000 Naira. Premium laptops are available for purchase in Nigeria’s main online stores.

The word “expensive” comes to mind when describing the MacBook Pro devices. The lowest-spec 13-inch model costs $1,799 (in the US) or £1,749 (in the UK) (in the UK). On the other hand, the 15-inch model starts at $2,399 (US)/ £2,349 (UK) (UK).
