The MacBook Pro 15 is also a few grams heavier because of the slightly larger battery (77.5 Wh as opposed to 73 Wh). Because of the greater maximum energy consumption of the Core i7 processors, a larger 85 Watt mains adaptor has been used, although possibly it is still not quite enough - more of which later. It is a much better fit for the aluminium case, and it means that the power cable (now rubber-coated) leads directly to the back of machine where it is out of the way.

This allows you to order a high-res version with 1680 x 1050 pixels (currently €90 extra). You can increase the RAM up to 8 GB DDR3, choose SSDs with up to 512 GB, and also upgrade the display, which we find especially interesting. In addition, you can customize the notebooks to a certain extent in the Apple Online Store as you buy them. The versions also differ in hard drive capacity and graphical memory. The MacBook Pro 15 comes in three different versions, with a range of processor speeds (dual core, 2.4 - 2.66 GHz). the MSI X-Slim X610), are noticeably lighter.

Very few notebooks, generally consumer ultra-low voltage models with weak processors (e.g. The 15-inch model is one of the lightest multimedia notebooks in its class.
