The excellent tracking of the pad remains the same as does the omission of dedicated mouse buttons.
The newest revision updates the pad with "Inertial Scrolling", which as the name implies allows scrolling with momentum-especially useful when reading long web pages. Still, for Windows-users the keyboard layout will necessitate a longer time to get used to.Įven the glass touch pad is identical to those in the larger MacBook Pro versions. Thanks to the firm fit, comfortable size and the excellent feedback one can add the keyboard, naturally independent of subjective individual taste, to the list of highest quality laptop keyboards. Also integrated into the design is the practical keyboard backlight (paired to the brightness sensor). In comparison to the white MacBook, the keystroke is a touch softer and the haptics of the keyboard are a bit higher grade.
It is identical to the other MacBook Pro keyboards and offers the same layout that Apple is well-known for. With respect to the chiclet keyboard, nothing has changed from the older models. However, due to the small height of the chassis, this is not a big problem. Also noteworthy is that the battery cannot be changed by the user.Ī further point of criticism levied on the previous unibody-models remains the same: the sharp front angle is uncomfortable to the underarm after periods of long use at a desk. If one wants access in order to change the HDD or RAM, the entire bottom shell must be unscrewed and removed. Thanks to the fixed integration of the slightly more powerful yet equally-sized battery, Apple has eliminated the maintenance hatch on the underside of the notebook. The robustness of the aluminum casing is incredible compared to other notebooks: even the traditionally weak area on many notebooks above the DVD drive does not give at all under pressure. In comparison to the larger MacBook Pro models, the design of the 13" MacBook is tailored to be better proportioned. The unibody aluminum chassis of the MacBook continues to set the standard for design, haptics, stability and craftsmanship.
