It is designed for a TDP ( maximum thermal output) of 35 watts. The CPU has Hyper-ThreadingВ and hence can support up to four threads in parallel. A single core can be overclocked to 3.1 GHz. Under ideal thermal conditions, Turbo Mode can overclock all cores to 2.9 GHz. The mobile Ivy Bridge CPU has a nominal clock speed of 2.5 GHz. The CPU in this entry level model is the dual-core Intel Core i5-3210M.

With the introduction of the current processor generation, all models of the MacBook Pro series see a bit of a boost in performance. We recommend looking at tests of the previous generation.ДЇinally something new to report.

Compared to the models from early 2011, there are only minor differences. Since the black point is also a bit higher, the contrast hardly changes. We measured a ten percent increase in brightness.

The results under Windows are slightly better. Because of the low black value of 0.48 cd/m 2, the contrast ratio of 623:1 is more than acceptable.

Under Mac OS X, the maximum brightness is 299 cd/m 2, while the brightness distribution is pretty even at 90 percent. We are not being critical here: the display used does its job really well. Apple doesn't specify what they are using exactly, but we can assume that this entry-level pro device is using a comparatively inexpensive display. Compared to 16:9, noticeable more vertical screen real estate is available. Fortunately, the aspect ratio remains at 16:10.

Since it's been quite a few years, we would have liked to see an update and a switch to a higher pixel count here. The resolution is still at 1280 x 800 pixels. Starting with the MacBook Air, Apple uses a 13.3-inch display with a reflectiveВ glass layer on top. The cost for the warranty extension is 249 Euro. Users interested in extending the warranty to three years can take advantage of the Apple Care Protection Plan. WarrantyДЄpple only offers a standard 12 month warranty. The notebook has to be sent in or needs to be taken to an authorized reseller in that case. Only the battery is not user replaceable. The fan unit can be cleaned should it become necessary. Hard disk drive and RAM are easily accessible and a breeze to change. TheВ MacBook Pro is quite user friendly in that aspect: after removal of ten small Phillips screws, a part of the bottom plate comes off and allows access to the internal components. 'Unibody' usually means difficult maintenance. Apple stores usually have a huge selection of accessories, both from the manufacturer itself as well as other vendors. AccessoriesДЄpple usually ships their notebooks withВ only the most basic accessories, so it wasn't a big surprise that the box only included the power adapter and a few user manuals. The main advantage of the already three-year old technology is the decreased power consumption, which leads to better battery life.

With Bluetooth 4.0, AppleВ incorporates the latest standard of the short-range wireless technology. The LAN controller (Broadcom) supports Gigabit Ethernet, the WLAN controller (also from Broadcom) supports 802.11a/b/g/n (both 2.4 and 5 GHz). Not much has changed from the predecessor. One thing up front: the somewhat low display resolution regrettably hasn't changed. Other changes we will discuss more thoroughly in the respective sections. Additionally, the USB ports have been updated to USB 3.0. Courtesy of the new processor generation is the integrated Intel HD Graphics 4000. This mobile CPU featured a 2.5 GHz core frequency and can overclock to a maximum of 3.1 GHz using Intel Turbo Boost.

So what did change? The most noticeable difference is the Ivy BridgeВ dual-core CPU Intel Core i5-3210M. And why fix something that's not broken - the customers obviously appreciated the design. The chassis is still a slim unibody structure made from solid aluminum. The outside of the new MacBook Pro entry-level notebook looks almost identical to the predecessor (we are talking about the versionВ 'Early 2011', since we had no chance to test the 'Late 2011'-model). Not everybodyВ was happy: screen too small, display glossy, and not even a matte option? Fast forward a few years: the little MacBook Pro is now well-established and was refreshed recently, when Apple updated the current portfolio. When the 'Unibody' MacBook was absorbed into the MacBook Pro line and debuted as MacBook Pro 13, it became the new entry-levelВ 'Pro'В model. But fans don't quite agree on the entry-level notebook into the realm of Apple Pro notebooks. Today, the 15-inch MacBooks are commonly accepted, and the Retina model is a worthy successor to the now discontinued 17-inch version. If you asked any die-hard Apple user a few years back about the 'ideal' MacBook Pro, he or she would have insisted on a 17-inch display, non-glare of course.
