Apple Macbook Review

Apple have managed to carve a niche for themselves by producing some of the most desirable laptops available on the market today. They have managed to do this by concentrating on the finer details of usability and performance and creating a highly sought after brand.

The Apple Macbook is the starter model in the range and even though it is on the lower end of the specifications, it is still a very impressive machine.

The first thing to note is the portability of the laptop. It weighs a little over 2kg and also features a compact design to the unit making it a great option for traveling. It also has a battery that can deliver over 6 hours of power from just one charge which adds to its portable credentials.

The casing is white and glossy and it looks fantastic. It comes with a 13.3″ screen which is compact but offers some of the best levels of detail available from any machine on the market. It is a joy to use for photo editing or watching films.

Another benefit of Apple machines is that they come preloaded with a host of free software such as the iLife software that can be used to configure the screen. An example of the detail that Apple go to in their design is the way that the power cable attaches to the machine using a magnet. This ensures that it stays connected but of the cable is accidentally pulled it won’t take the machine with it.

It features a very useable keyboard and has the gesture control touch pad that was their design. This makes navigation very each and removes the need for a mouse.

If there are any complaints about the Apple Macbook, it is the lower specification that its equivalent PC laptops. It comes with 2GB RAM and 250GB hard disk. This does not detract form the performance at all as it comes with a high powered processor and it starts very quickly and can multi task with ease.

It may appear that you could get more from a Windows based machine, but there is no denying that the attention to detail on the Macbook put it in a league of its own and make it a great option for people looking for that bit extra.
