The ports remain USB-C / Thunderbolt 3, but the 13-inch now matches the 15-inch with all four offering full bandwidth. Light, sleek, and strong, but no longer modern looking in the age of iPhone X or some of its near-bezeless competition.

Three years into this design generation only one thing is for certain: This remains the most controversial and divisive pro portable Apple has ever made.


Rather than recapitulate everything here, I'm going to focus only on what's new and different. MacBook Pro (2018) is based on the platform Apple introduced in 2016. MacBook Pro setup (Image credit: iMore) Previously, on MacBook Pro… In addition, I've spoken to over a dozen pro users in a wide range of fields, to get a sense of how the new machines affect a wide range of workloads. I've also spent almost a second week throwing out those tests and doing them over again following Apple finding and fixing a bug in the thermal management firmware (see the Coffee Lake section, below). I've now spent a week testing a new, 15-inch MacBook Pro (2018) with a 6-core i9 processor, 32GB of memory, and 2TB of solid-state storage, which sells for a brisk $4,699. Second, from the irresistible force of Intel falling back on multiple extra cores to make up for multiple years of failing to get to a 10-nanometer process, slamming head-on into the immovable object that is Apple's insistence on keeping its pro portables ultra portable. You already know what hyper-performance wrapped in sleek lines feels like, but you're curious to see just how much better it can get.įirst, concerns about the reliability of the butterfly and dome-switch keyboards, which proved problematic enough in the previous two versions for Apple to have instituted a repair program. I'll probably never know for sure, but I imagine it's similar to getting into a new Ferrari. There's something about cracking open a new MacBook Pro for the first time. The result is significantly faster graphics performance - up to 60 percent faster than the Radeon Pro 560X15 - for tackling demanding video, 3D, rendering, and compute workloads.īuild-to-order options for the 15-inch only, you can get the Pro Vega 16 with 4GB of HBM2 memory for + $250.00 or the Radeon Pro Vega 20 with 4GB of HBM2 memory for + $350.00. HBM2 doubles the memory bandwidth to the GPU while doing so at considerably lower power, so more of the graphics power budget can be used by the GPU itself. Featuring the same graphics architecture used in iMac Pro, Vega delivers an enhanced compute engine and utilizes High Bandwidth Memory (HBM2).

No need to update if using Mojave or any other previous version of macOS.The 15-inch MacBook Pro now offers Radeon Pro Vega GPU options - the first discrete mobile Vega GPUs in a notebook. The 2.9.1 contains a workaround for this. It has already been reported to Apple and it causes some status bar apps to only display dropdown menus when clicking on external monitor. It doesn’t happen when side by side alignment.

It installs a precompiled kernel extension (32 or 64 bits depending on your system) that updates the Turbo Boost MSR register, so It will ask for your admin password when using it.
