While one company has made multitasking a breeze with a triple-monitor expansion for laptops, another startup is aiming to make your present MacBook Pro configuration more capable using an external graphics solution, a useful tool for trying out the best Mac games. Moreover, MacBook Pro excitement from third-party accessory makers hasn't ceased either. If you recently bought a MacBook Pro or a MacBook Air I'd love to know why you picked your model you can reach me via email or via twitter.Other new features you'll soon be able to experience with your year-plus-old MacBook Pro include Universal Clipboard for copying/cutting/pasting across different Apple hardware, unlocking your MacBook Pro using an Apple Watch, improved photo categorization and – finally – Apple Pay. I'm curious whether it's the cheaper price or the faster performance (or a combination of both) that's contributing to the MacBook Pro's popularity.

These results suggest users who want the fastest 13-inch Mac laptop are opting for the MacBook Pro, while everyone else is opting for the 13-inch MacBook Air. However, the opposite is true for the faster models the Core i7 MacBook Pro outsells the Core i7 MacBook Air by the same factor of two to one. Based on the results uploaded to the Geekbench Browser, the Core i5 MacBook Air outsells the Core i5 MacBook Pro by a factor of two to one. Now that both models have been out for a week it's possible to test that hypothesis. When the new MacBook Pros and MacBook Airs came out, I wondered if the new MacBook Air would be more popular than the new MacBook Pro the lack of results for the new MacBook Pro suggested that would be the case. The Core i5 13-inch MacBook Pro is 10% faster than the Core i5 13-inch MacBook Air, while the Core i7 13-inch MacBook Pro is 15% faster (and $100 cheaper) than the Core i7 13-inch MacBook Air. The latest MacBook Pros also offer a nice increase in performance over the latest MacBook Airs. Some of the increase is from higher processor speeds, while some of the increase is from the improved Ivy Bridge processor architecture. Both the Core i5 and the Core i 13-inch MacBook Pros are over 10% faster than the equivalent Late 2011 13-inch MacBook Pros. The latest MacBook Pros offer a nice increase in performance over the previous MacBook Pros.
