There's also an onscreen button for changing the video window from portrait mode to horizontal, and video calls can be made between MacBooks and iPhones as well. With a solid Wi-Fi signal, jumping into full-screen mode was clear and mostly stutter-free. Thunderbolt is technically capable of 10Gbps bidirectional transfer, and if Intel and Apple have their way, it may replace many other kinds of ports and connections in the future, but there are only a handful of peripherals that work with it currently.Īlso notable on the 2011 MacBook Pro (including the version we tested earlier this year) is a 720p Webcam, which works with the new Mac version of FaceTime, the same video-conferencing app found on the iPhone and iPod Touch. It still functions as a DisplayPort output, and in fact, you're able to daisy-chain up to six Thunderbolt devices or displays to that single port. If it looks a lot like the Mini DisplayPort connection on older MacBooks, that's because it is the same, except for the tiny lightning bolt logo next to it. The big difference between MacBooks and other laptops in the ports and connections category is the recent port based on Intel's Thunderbolt high-speed I/O technology. Faster than the retina! My only recommendation is buy an antiglare film like the Moshi iVisor Pro which will reduce glare and will not harm your eyes.Stereo speakers, headphone/microphone jacksĮthernet, 802.11n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, optional mobile broadband I also installed an SSD and Mountain Lion boots in less than 12secon ds. Also, no fan noise with Windows when using normal web browsing and documentation. I suspect it will be less hot if you Bootcamp Windows instead of fusing it with Mountain Lion.

Its fantastic and works exactly like the Windows OS machine.

I installed VMWare Fusion 5 and ran Windows XP on it. Also, there is absolutely zero fan noise even while browsing and opening word documents unlike in 2011 model. Two interesting facts in the 2012 model is that I realised that the screen is one degree brighter! though it was the standard screen. Had the October 2011 model and this one is different. Windows will get a little hot, also buy antiglare.Ĭons: Very glossy screen (Buy antiglare film), also will get little hot with Windows
