Indeed, when Apple compares the new
model to the previous-generation 8-core 15-
inch MacBook Pro with the highest graphics
options, video editors using DaVinci Resolve
will see up to 1.8 times faster effects rendering
when color grading and gamers will enjoy
smoother gameplay with up to 1.6 times faster
performance when battling in games such as
Fornite. And to power the huge increase in
performance, Apple is compensating with a
bigger battery pack - 100Wh of power. That’s
the largest battery ever included in a MacBook
and offers up to 11 hours of wireless web
browsing or Apple TV video playback, allowing
for all-day use.
BETTER THAN EVER
Whilst cloud computing has changed the way
everyday users interact with their machines,
professional users with tonnes of assets need
more storage than ever. The new MacBook Pro
doubles the SSD storage to 512GB and 1TB on
standard configurations, and for the very first
time, consumers can opt for a staggering 8TB
storage configuration, the largest SSD ever
in a notebook, though this will set you back
an additional $2,400, bringing the price to
$4,799.00 before any other upgrades such as
memory or processor upgrades.
