It has below-average battery life. It's expensive considering its performance
Pricey

Only USB-C ports

Shallow keyboard
No USB 3.0 or HDMI ports or SD card slot
16GB RAM ceiling
Windows rivals offer 4K screens for less

A big computer that happens to feel solid and designed well, Four USB Type C / Thunderbolt 3 ports, The MacBook Pro 15 can be charged from every one of the ports, Solid performance, Excellent screen, The biggest touchpad on a laptop ever
Touch Bar still doesn't feel super useful, No standard USB ports, No SD card slot
Despite the odd omission and a touch bar that still hardly feels like it lives up to its potential, Apple's 2017 MacBook Pro 15 is a slam dunk for us, delivering some of the best performance and battery life possible in such a thin design.Creatives needin...

Excellent in just about every way, long battery life, great touch pad, fingerprint unlock
Can scare the unfamiliar when the battery goes flat
As using the Apple MacBook Pro 15 inch is a seriously impressive computer. And now that the mid-year refresh has arrived, it costs a little less and performs a little better than the model reviewed here.Tags MacBook ProPrevious article Review: Kambrook So...
The updated 15-inch MacBook Pro gets faster processing and graphics options. It's still the biggest and most-powerful laptop Apple makes. The giant touchpad is easy to use and battery life is excellent
Having only USB-C ports can be a hassle. The super-flat keyboard is an acquired taste
Even if you're not sold on the idea of the Touch Bar, this slightly updated MacBook Pro is still the king of high-end laptops, especially for the creative class...

Abstract: Late last month, Microsoft fired a shot across Apple's bow. With the Surface Studio and Dial and an updated Surface Book, Microsoft made clear its plans to woo Apple's old core audience of creative professionals — a group Apple has seemingly forgotten in...
It's too early to tell if the Touch Bar is going to be as indispensible as Touch ID, but from what I've experienced, it's a finely executed fresh feature - but one that really needs third party support to help it realise its true potential.There are plent...
Abstract: The Dell XPS 13 is an excellent ultraportable laptop, the best 13-inch Windows model going for many. Dell hasn't aimed for a single superlative feature, a potential gimmick. Its footprint is smaller than the competition, but it's thicker. Its screen resol...

We've always been a huge fan of the MacBook and this update improves the experience even further.It is a stunning piece of technology but owning one does come at a high price and we can't help thinking that £1,249 is simply too steep.But if you want the u...
The MacBook is stunning but it is cursed with one port in a world that isn't ready for that yet. If you do everything over the air though and want the smallest, lightest ultrabook possible then it is an outstanding, if expensive, option.The Kaby Lake gene...

There’s no doubt that Apple’s new MacBook Pro is a sizable step in the right direction. They’re universally slimmer, lighter, faster and more pleasant to use than their predecessors. There is a price to pay, however: the cheapest MacBook Pro you can buy is £1,249...
