Apple MacBook Pro 2018 Core i5 2.3GHz 16GB 256GB 13.3in
The Macbook Pro 2018 is a seriously good machine that meets the demands of seriously discerning users.
Performance and power
The Macbook Pro 2018 continues Apple's dizzying performance standards with new eighth-generation Intel 6-core and quad-core processors. The 15-inch model now boasts a 6-core Intel Core i9 processor that works up to 70 per cent faster than previous generation models!
Mega memory
It's no problem to run multiple pro apps when you have up to 32GB of memory at your disposal. And even easier to run them for longer with up to 10 hours battery life.
Blackmagic gaming magic
Blackmagic eGPU is a big part of the MacBook Pro, and the cutting-edge graphics accelerator creates VR content and an awesome gaming experience.
All at your fingertips
Fingertip control makes the Macbook Pro even easier to use, including Apple Pay for secure online purchases, fast access to system settings and locked notes, and the ability to instantly switch between users.
Sounds as good as it looks
Hi-fi quality sound is another feature of the MacBook Pro, with a wide dynamic range and more bass. That great sound can be heard better than ever with speakers directly linked to system power, allowing for greater peak amplification. In partnership with the stunning visuals, the sound makes for a mind-blowing entertainment experience.
Not everything is full noise
While the sound coming out of the system can be a blast, the 13-inch and 15-inch MacBook Pro models with Touch Bar now promise a quieter typing experience; good news for you, and for those working next to you. The innovative Force Touch trackpad also gives your fingers plenty of room, making for a more comfortable experience.

Apple MacBook Pro 13 2018 (Touch Bar, i5) Laptop Review
The announcement of the new 2018 MacBook Pro lead to many headlines. They were mainly focused on the performance of the new processors, which did not meet the expectations. Apple released a software update one week later, which was supposed to improve the performance.- excellent chassis and build quality
- huge trackpad with great precision
- quiet and good cooling
- high WLAN transfer speeds
- very good display with perfect scaling
- very good speakers
- improved battery runtimes
- 4x Thunderbolt 3 with full bandwidth
- cooling solution is at the limit
- neither USB-A nor HDMI-out
- 2.4 GHz WLAN issues with attached USB-C device
- poor webcam
- very expensive – especially the upgrades
- power adapter is at the limit
Apple MacBook Pro 13-inch (2018) : Actually for Pros
Dual-core processors just aren't enough for real professionals anymore. Graphics work, video editing and photo manipulation require more power than ever. And while Apple caught flack for a lack of power in the 13-inch MacBook Pro last year, the company's update to quad-core chips packs a punch.- Strong CPU performance
- Ridiculously fast SSD
- True Tone display
- Quieter keyboard
- Battery life shorter than competition
- Still short on ports
- Only expensive models refreshed
Apple MacBook Pro 13-inch (2018) Review
As someone who's been working every day with a 2016 MacBook Pro -- and who is sick of seeing spinning beach balls during heavy multitasking -- I'm happy to report that the 2018 MacBook Pro 13-inch with Touch Bar (starting at $1,799) has the serious speed boost I've been waiting for.
