12-inch MacBook vs. 13-inch MacBook Air vs. MacBook Pro – Best Comparison So Far

Apple’s laptops are renowned for their sleek designs and powerful performances, but there is a downside to them. People always have a difficult time choosing one because there are so many MacBook models. With that being said, today we are going to help readers understand what Apple’s latest MacBook models have to offer and which one deserves their money the most.

12-inch MacBook

The first Apple laptop we are going to start with is the standard 12-inch MacBook. This laptop was refreshed back in 2017 and it is considered to be the “basic” Apple laptop. Nonetheless, the laptop is available with the following CPU options 1.2GHz and 256GB or 1.3GHz and 512 GB. The price difference between these models is about $300 so we advise Apple fans to pick wisely.

13-inch MacBook Air

If you are looking for a thin laptop that can be used for everyday activities, then the 13-inch MacBook Air is the perfect choice. This laptop is fueled by a 1.8GHz CPU and 128GB for 949 euros or by the same 1.8GHz CPU and 256GB for 1,099 euros. We should also mention that both models ship with 8GB of RAM memory.

MacBook Pro

Now that we briefly went over the 12-inch MacBook and 13-inch MacBook Air, the next step is the highly popular MacBook Pro models. Apple made sure to give fans different options to choose from when it comes to the MacBook Pro lineup and two of them even ship with different screens and a Touch Bar.

The premium model was released in 2015 and it ships with a 15-inch screen (without Touch Bar) and a quad-core 2.2GHz CPU that’s paired with 256GB of internal storage space. The laptop costs 1,899 euros and Apple fans who are on a budget can also pick the entry-level 2017 13-inch MacBook Pro that’s powered by a dual-core 2.3GHz CPU and 128GB for the price of 1,249 euros.

MacBook Pro 2018 Leaks – Will It Have Significant Upgrades?

The MacBook Pro line has had various problems and complaints regarding its design and functionality. The new MacBook Pros could come either in June at WWDC or later this year in fall. The biggest problems have been the butterfly-switch key design and the lack of an USB Type A port. Many people are wondering what does Apple have in store for MacBook. However, according to DigiTimes, the processor upgrade will be the only update.

Design: A bezel-free MacBook?

According to Apple’s best and worst brands report, MacBook’s design is more of a downfall rather than a significant feature. The single problem a bezel-free design would have is the webcam position but other systems have already succeeded in shrinking the bezels while keeping the webcam in place (Dell XPS 13).

Keyboard: Getting rid of the butterfly-switch key design?

This type of keyboard design has been considered fragile and sometimes difficult to write properly – having to press multiple times on certain keys. Unfortunately, it isn’t bound to happen. However, Apple is working on a crumb-resistant keyboard.

The processor: The biggest obstacle

Apple will invest in Intel’s 8^th Generation processors from which a quad-core Lake Kaby Lake R Core i5 or Core i7 is the most obvious choice. This would increase performance and double the number of cores. The second option is the Intel’s Kaby Lake G CPU with AMD Radeon Vega processors with a better graphic for Photoshop users, gaming and movie editing. Apple usually uses AMD’s graphics over Nvidia’s so Apple would choose the second.

Regarding chips, Apple would be ahead of its competitors and would fix their problems if the company adopted 10nm chips. Intel has launched Cannon Lake but there are a few laptops with this CPU. This would support more RAM at lower power than the current CPU, maybe a reason why Apple didn’t choose an option with 32 GB RAM.
