This move obviously throws up a few issues, but Apple has moved to alleviate fears of quickly depleting batteries by developing a system of intelligent charging to prevent eroding the capacity of the battery prematurely. Consequently this new model features a 58 Watt-hour capacity unit compared to the 48 Watt-hour one from last year, but still weighs just a smidgen over 2.0kg This, so says Apple, is so it can fit in a higher capacity battery without increasing the weight of machine. This time it’s with the battery, which unlike last year’s model isn’t user replaceable. However, just when you think Apple has steered a course toward friendship and reconciliation with the real world, it finds another reason to court controversy. Other new features include a long overdue SD card reader (quite how Apple held out for so long is beyond us) and the backlit keyboard, which is now standard even on the entry-level model.Īll of which go someway to appeasing our complaints from the 2008 version. Primary among those was the lack of a FireWire 800 port, which is one of the most desirable additions to this new model. With all this said there were some good reasons why the first edition wasn’t deemed ‘Pro’ enough to be a MacBook Pro.
Moreover, as the 13in aluminium MacBook (as was) shared the same design language as the MacBook Pros above it, its separation from them could be deemed a little odd. This actually makes a lot of sense given the older white MacBook is still on sale it saves a lot of unnecessary confusion.

However, as impressive as the new MacBooks were, there were one or two niggling issues that prevented the full TrustedReviews stamp of approval: a Recommended Award. No surprises there really, if nothing else Apple is known for its great design. Last year’s arrival of the aluminium ‘unibody’ MacBooks (see Apple MacBook 13in) was something of a revelation where laptop design was concerned.
