The editors didn't like

  • Performance is a step or two behind recent Broadwell-U Macs
  • In 1440×900 mode
  • The integrated GPU sometimes struggles to keep up with the high-res screen
  • Upgrades are impossible. Everything from the RAM to the SSD is soldered to the tiny motherboard
  • Med
  • Overall performance isn't on par with competitors' laptops
  • High-performance processors or graphics
  • A large number and variety of ports
  • Deep
  • Clackity keyboards
  • Low
  • Low pricing
  • Must use dongle to plug in most devices
  • Pricey
  • Loss of MagSafe could lead to a costly accident
  • No USB-C adapter
  • Splitter or hub in the box
  • Starting at $1
  • 299
  • The MacBook is expensive for what it offers
  • Only one USB-C port
  • With no adapters included. USB-C is not Thunderbolt-compatible. New keyboard and Force Touch trackpad take some getting used to. Can only be upgraded at initial purchase
  • Weak keyboard
  • Single USBC port for charging and peripherals
  • Slow Core M processor
  • Single USB-C port for charging and peripherals
  • Its performance and battery life falls short of the MacBook Air and Pro. The new keyboard is shallow and takes some getting used to
  • And sharing a single port for all accessories as well as the power cord is almost immediately frustrating
  • USB Type-C port won't fit existing peripherals
  • No SD card slot or MagSafe power connector
  • Shallow keyboard travel takes some getting used to
  • Core M CPU isn't as powerful as Core i5
  • Lack of keyboard travel is disconcerting at first. Expensive
  • Limited performance
  • Very expensive relative to performance
  • Only slightly more powerful than iPad Air 2
  • Specific target audience
  • So it will not please everyone
  • No touchscreen. Come on
  • Apple
  • Single USB TypeC port limits desktop/office use (adapter not included)
  • Polarizing keyboard typing experience (shallow travel
  • Limited feedback)
  • Average processor performance (slower than expected)
  • Worthless 480p webcam
  • Expensive to the point of being hard to recommend. A little slow when you push it. The battery is just shy of being as worryfree as it wants to be. USBC isn't yet everywhere
  • Single USBC port and lowpower processor
  • Processor-intensive tasks are slow
  • Laptop gets warm
  • Only one port for everything
  • Only one combined USB and power connector
  • Bad webcam
  • No maintainability or upgradeability
  • High price and expensive accessories
  • Only 12 months warranty

  • Dimensioni e costruzione, Qualità dello schermo, Trackpad Force Touch innovativo
  • Prezzo elevato, Una sola porta che richiede pure un adattatore, Tastiera precisa ma non troppo comoda
  • Il nuovo MacBook non è un costoso netbook, ma un portatile che oltre alla indubbia qualità costruttiva si è dimostrato anche sufficientemente veloce per la maggior parte delle applicazioni “consumer”. Evidenziamo consumer perché, malgrado il prezzo a nost...

  • Il nuovo MacBook è un portatile da 12 pollici e 920 grammi con telaio in alluminio e schermo che va da bordo a bordo. Non è un Air e non è un Pro, anche se dei primi estremizza il concetto e dai secondi eredita il posizionamento. È un laptop pregiato e ...

  • Ottimo design e realizzazione, Processore sorprendente per essere un Intel Core M, Flessibilità di utilizzo e portabilità
  • Prezzo elevato, Autonomia inferiore al MacBook Air equivalente, Una sola porta USB-C, Recensione MacBook 12, prova su strada del portatile del futuro, è stato modificato il: 07 05, 2015 Antonio Dini, Pagine: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
  • Il grande problema del MacBook 12 non è la potenza o la flessibilità, la tastiera o il trackpad, la batteria o lo schermo. Il vero problema è il prezzo. La decisione di Apple di “comprimere” così tante tecnologie diverse in uno spazio che per adesso non s...

  • Una delle maggiori curiosità sul nuovo MacBook 12 pollici, dopo le prestazioni in grado di essere erogate dal processore Core M, è l'usabilità della nuova tastiera. Introducendo il computer durante il keynote di alcune settimane fa, infatti, Phil Schiller

  • Durch den Einsatz des Intel Core M und eines sehr großen Akkus behauptet Apple, das Macbook würde einen Tag lang durchhalten. Diese Angaben sind natürlich relativ – ein Projekt in Logic Pro zu bearbeiten saugt den Akku des zähesten Laptops leer. Aber gene...
