No moving HD heads to crash or moving platters. after that the standard laptops stays at home. Pack around a regular laptop around about 20 days, then an Air.
MACBOOK PRO EARLY 2013 15 INCH FULL
Only one moving part, ultrafast boot time SSD, the full power of laptop with the weight of an Ipad (close).Īir is the only Mac that has Haswell, 802ac wifi, and incredible 12hr. Here is an excellent video comparison between the 11” I5 vs. Also own a couple macbook Pro, new and older one i rebuilt. Ive got an Imac and current Air, and owned several Air, the air is the hands down choice for myself and I wouldnt part with it for any amount of money. Its stronger in alloy form factor, slim design with only ONE moving part, no HD to crash from mechanical failure of impact etc. Is the MacBook Air weaker or stronger than the laptop I am using now Id keep the Air, its "Star Trek" nature of "doesnt weight anything, does everything (and fast), and has incredible battery life". if I was forced to get rid of all but one. But again that is part subjective ,and part empirical truth.Īll choices boil down to "needs and subjective likes", that being said having 6 Macs. If your not a gamer, or video editor, the large 15" Pro you have, and a fine machine it is, has nothing over the current Air. You should take your Pro down to the Apple store, boot both and run some simplex tests side by side if need be. The PCIe SSD on the new Air will run circles in read/write speeds around the 15" and with a 7+ second boot time and the fact that weighs about as much as an Ipad and is fast to boot and close, not everything is "in the engine" Not to mention absurd 13+ hour battery life, and incredible 802ac wifi speeds. Anyways, Thanks to anybody who can help me!Īs a quad core it has more raw processing power (your 15") however considering your speeds are limited by a conventional HD with platter and spindle speeds its like having a powerful engine in a very heavy and slow car. I am thinking about saving up for a 27-inch iMac, which would then be my primary machine, but if I were able to buy one, it wouldn't be for awhile. Now, since the MacBook Air is smaller, I know that it displays just as much as this laptop does, so I don't think that the screen size would be that big of a problem. How much would I be able to sell this laptop for on Ebay? Is the MacBook Air weaker or stronger than the laptop I am using now? Screen real estate is something that matters a lot when using a music program, which is why I initially went for this laptop. I was wandering if this would be a good idea.
MACBOOK PRO EARLY 2013 15 INCH UPGRADE
I really value battery-life I would probably upgrade the RAM to 8 gigs, and maybe upgrade the processor to 1.7 GHz, maybe upgrade the SSD to 256, but I might not. The laptop is a little thick and heavy, and its battery-life is nothing compared to the MacBook Air. I was wandering if I should sell this laptop on Ebay, and buy a brand-new Macbook Air, 13-inch, 2013 model. I also do some other small things on my laptop, like word-processing, web-browsing and I bring it to school everyday. I'm really into producing music, and I use Reason 6.5. It was in perfect condition when I bought it, and it still is. I bought it off of an Apple product store on Ebay about 3 and a half months ago. It has 8 GB of RAM, a quad-core, 2.3 GHz i7 processor, hi-res, anti-glare display, an AMD 6750m and Intel HD 3000. I currently own a MacBook Pro 15-inch, early 2011 model.
