The opening angle of the display is now bigger by some degrees and, so, also sufficient for working on the lap. The magnetic lock works trouble-free and holds the lid sufficiently tight if closed.įinally, Apple also reacted to the biggest disadvantage of the beautifully counter-sunk display hinge. Typical Apple the gaps are precise and the display lid finally closes due to the new closing mechanism of the MacBook Air absolutely flush. Compared to the former model, the case is even thinner and marginally lighter.

The full body aluminium case has an excellent haptics and appears to be of very high-quality. The aluminium case only finds a contrast in the display's black border (with crystal coat) and in the black plastic cover of the hinge (in order to guarantee WLAN and Bluetooth reception). Nevertheless, we liked the old power-button of the MacBook Pro even more. And also the power switch and the keyboard are the same. In the 5 th generation of MacBook Pros Apple completely re-engineered the MacBook Pro, and adopted the trend-setting MacBook Air design.Įspecially the rounded display lid reminds very much on the MacBook Air. So, this part is identical to the case section of the first MacBook Pro 15" review. Only the battery cover was not 100% accurately fitting and wobbled a little bit in the second test sample. Even if you use the MacBook Pro 15" for a longer time, the excellent impression the design and the workmanship of this laptop left persists.
