Apple MacBook Pro 13" 2019

At the end of spring 2019, Apple introduced the updated MacBook Pro. Ultrabooks received several significant improvements - both system and hardware. Representatives of the company claim that the device will work several times faster, from 40% to 100% depending on the configuration. We offer you to figure out exactly what are the advantages of the updated Pro line, namely the version with a 13-inch screen and Touch Bar.

Performance and Features

MacBook Pro is a new benchmark for power and portability in one gadget. With super-powerful processors and graphics, massive storage capacities and ultra-fast storage, your ideas and fantasies are brought to life faster than ever before. The MacBook Pro 13 has been given the brain and heart of a 15-watt Intel Core i5-8365 (2.4 GHz with Turbo Boost up to 4.1 GHz) and an Intel Core i7-8665U (2.8 GHz with Turbo Boost). Turbo Boost up to 4.7 GHz)

Graphics capabilities are provided by the integrated Intel Iris Plus Graphics 655. For faster performance and graphics processing, the 13-inch MacBook Pro with Touch Bar features an integrated graphics processor with 128MB of integrated DRAM.

Memory and communications

The MacBook Pro 13 is equipped with 8 GB or 16 GB (DDR3 standard) of RAM, which is enough for optimal performance. It is worth noting that the solid state drive, just like its predecessors, is soldered on the motherboard. (This means that you will not be able to add more memory modules yourself). Available volumes of SSD drive from 256 GB to 2 TB. It's nice to have plenty to choose from.

The case has four Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) ports, which are ideal for both recharging and synchronization. Connecting external drives, video cards and monitors is a reality that you can't help but like. To the delight of many, Apple laptops still have a 3.5 audio jack for connecting headphones. A trifle, but nice. Wireless interfaces are represented by a dual-band Wi-Fi module and Bluetooth 5.0.

Housing and keyboard

The aluminum chassis of the MacBook Pro is already part of a classic story. The standard was also retained in the MacBook Pro 13 2019. The main hardware innovation was the update of the butterfly keyboard mechanism. In fact, this is the fourth update of the mechanism, with which minor problems arose from time to time. (Please note that the company is correcting the error and replacing the keyboard with a new one if necessary).

The keyboard in the new models has a silicone membrane replaced with a nylon one. In all other respects, it's still the same keyboard with 65 buttons and a Touch Bar with a built-in Touch ID fingerprint scanner. The touchpad has remained unchanged, and it is still considered one of the coolest on the market.

Screen and design

Regardless of the size, the new MacBook Pro 2019 supports True Tone technology, which makes the image several times more pleasing to the eye. The sensors almost imperceptibly adjust the color reproduction according to the level of ambient light.

The 13-inch MacBook Pro with Touch Bar has a 2560x1600 resolution and P3 color gamut. The 500 cd/m2 IPS Retina display is by far the most comfortable thing to work with photos and videos at a professional level. And the bonus is that there is no negative effect on your vision. Apple has taken care of everything :)

Autonomy and security

The 13-inch models are equipped with a 58 Wh lithium polymer battery and a 61 W USB-C power adapter. The battery life reaches 10 hours, subject to the average level of screen brightness and Internet browsing.

To keep your MacBook as secure as possible, Apple created the Apple T2 Security Chip. Also, Apple laptops are equipped with the Secure Enclave module, which is responsible for the secure download and storage of encrypted data.
