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.
Pros:
- Strong CPU performance
- Ridiculously fast SSD
- True Tone display
- Quieter keyboard
Cons:
- 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.

Awesome
This piece of kit is second to none. Best all round for design, performance and reliability although I only had it a couple of weeks now. Only down side is the price

Pros:
- Outstanding speed
- Longer battery life
- Attractive design
Cons:
- Expensive

Definitely recommended
"Can't fault the ao service. You get what you pay for with Apple and I need the reliability that other manufacturers can't provide so although expensive definitely worth it when it's providing your income. I love the fact it was so easy to setup and not full of bloated software.
