MacBook Pro is a line of Macintosh portable computers introduced in January 2006, by Apple Inc.. It is the high-end model of the MacBook family and is currently available in 13- and 16-inch screen sizes. A 17-inch version was sold from April 2006 to June 2012.
History[edit]
The first generation MacBook Pro was announced on January 10, 2006, by Steve Jobs at the Macworld Conference & Expo. The first design was largely a carryover from the PowerBook G4, but uses Intel Core CPUs instead of PowerPC G3 processors. It was the first MacBook to use features now standard in its line, such as the MagSafe power connector and backlit keyboard.
Design[edit]
The MacBook Pro has a sleek aluminum unibody design. The current lineup consists of the 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina Display and the 16-inch MacBook Pro. The 13-inch model weighs 3.1 pounds and the 16-inch model weighs 4.3 pounds. Both models come with a large Force Touch trackpad and the Touch Bar, a thin touchscreen strip above the keyboard that offers context-specific buttons and controls.
Hardware[edit]
The MacBook Pro uses the macOS operating system. The current models are powered by the M1 Pro or M1 Max chips, which are part of Apple's own Apple Silicon line of processors. These chips offer significant improvements in performance and energy efficiency over the Intel processors used in previous models.
Software[edit]
The MacBook Pro comes with a variety of pre-installed software, including iLife, iWork, and the Safari web browser. It also supports a wide range of third-party software.
Reception[edit]
The MacBook Pro has generally received positive reviews for its design, performance, and build quality. However, it has also been criticized for its high price and lack of user-upgradable parts.
