With six cores of processing power in a 1.5cm body, this is a pocket(-ish) rocket
Apple’s high-end laptop finally gets a big leap forward in power this year, putting six-core processors in as standard (the 13-inch model gets a tidy quad-core processor). The basic £2,349 model (2.2GHz core i7 processor, 16GB of RAM, 256GB of ultra-fast flash storage) is pretty handy itself, and compares well to the T3-favourite 15-inch Surface Book 2: for the same price, you get the same storage (but faster), the same rAM, two extra processor cores, but a weaker GPU. We got the XXXTREME version to test the MacBook Pro, a machine that comes in at tear-inducing £4,049, kitted out with a 2.9GHz core i9 chip, 32GB of RAM, AMD Radeon Pro 560X 4GB graphics card and 2TB storage.
