Apple Macbook Pro Models Updated With New GPUs, CPUs, And More

Got a Macbook Pro this year? It’s time to feel bad already, because they’ve been slightly updated with new specs. To begin with, the AMD Radeon HD 6770M discrete GPU will be the gaming prowess in you 15-inch 17-inch versions. Even better yet, there are some CPU improvements to be examined: the 13-incher gets an with a 2.8GHz Core i7 or a 2.4GHz Core i5 dual-core processor, instead of the previous entry-level 2.3GHz Core i5 (and it also gets its HDD notched up to a minimum 500GB, or max 750GB). The 15-incher now goes up to a quad-core 2.4GHz Core i7 — the same speedy processor that comes in the updated 17-inch variant. And that is that.

Below is a list of the new Macbook Pros, debuted on Steve Jobs’ birthday. The design hasn’t changed a bit, except the internals. The main revisions are new processors, graphics, FaceTime HD, and a Thunderbolt port, used for 10 gigabytes per second file transfers (download and upload), which utterly destroys Firewire and USB. Prices range from $1,199 for the 13-inch model and up to $2499 for a 17-inch quad-core Core i7, clocked at 2.2GHz.

Intel May Have Leaked Something: The New Macbook Pro

This is so beautiful. You could cry (an exaggeration). It looks like in a little advert Intel may have spilled the beans on the new Macbook Pros, something of which they have a fantastic reputation for. Even the Mac OS X UI looks better even though it hasn’t changed a bit. Via: 9to5Mac

An Exclusive: Why Core i5 Is Not In The New Macbook Pro 13-inch

With today’s announcement of the new Macbook Pro line, the 15-inch and 17-inch models now either sport new Core i5 or Core i7 processors, but the Macbook Pro 13-inch, which is in fact the most popular Mac sold by Apple is still sticking to a 2.4Ghz Core 2 Duo. You might be asking yourself, “Why”? After speaking to Tim Bajarin from Creative Strategies at Apple, we have the full scoop as to how it’s excluded from the new Macbook Pro, as well as how Apple engineers could actually do it in the future. Read on past the break!

New Macbook Pro lines get spec’d up with Core i5 and Core i7, plus extras

Finally! Jumping the gun and going straight to the news: the Macbook Pro line has been refreshed featuring Core i5 and Core i5 processors. The basic Macbook Pro 13-inch comes with 4GB of RAM, 320GB, and a 2.4Ghz Core 2 Duo processor, but the 15-inch and 17-inch models are Core i5 and Core i7 for the record. Also, the higher-end models grab the Nvidia GeForce GT 330M graphics with Optimus switching, meaning that web browsing will be the lightest load of all time, and graphics speed will only be called in when you actually need it. While the 2.4Ghz and 2.66 Ghz Core 2 Duos with a claimed 10 hours of battery life in the 13-inch model definitely are to impress (hey, no Core i5 in the 13?), it’s the 15-inch and 17-inch ones that really count: Core i5 2.4GHz (520M), Core i5 2.53GHz (540M), and Core i7 2.66GHz (620M) processors come in the larger models, as well as the faster Nvidia 330M instead of the 13-inchers 320M. Also, Apple claims that you’ll get between 8 and 9 hours of battery life on these bad guys.

All models come with 4GB of sweet DDR3 RAM, 320GB hard drives and 500GB in higher-end ones, you have the stellar and tempting option of a 512GB SSD for $1,300. So to shoot it all down, the 15-incher gets the Core i7 and the 17-inch gets the Core i5. But let’s go to what this will all cost you, right? It’s $1,799 for the 15, $2,299 for the 17, and $1,199 for the 13. And Apple’s not done with you yet: a 1440 x 900 “glossy” display comes basic on the 15, a 1680 x 1050 glossy display goes for $100 more, and an anti-glare hi-res display for another $50 on top of that (making it $150 for a matte display). Everything’s up at the Apple Store with a shipping date of “24 hours” while the 13-inch model is delayed “2-4 days”. Awesome stuff, if you ask us. (Sans not having Core i5 in the 13, but still a great refresh).

BestBuy’s Macbook Pro SKUs Disappear, Core i5 Refresh Coming?

The Macbook Pro Core i5 refresh might be closer than we all think. TUAW has found out that BestBuy’s SKUs for the Macbook Pro line are gone, meaning that there are no longer receiving new units. Meaning that there’s a new Macbook Pro refresh coming up, probably with the new Core i5 processors! Okay, that’s not solid, but it’s something to start with, right? [TUAW]

UPDATE: Giving credit to the right source; we have learned that this leak actually came from MacRumors.

HP Envy 15 Beats Edition beats everyone else

hp-beats1

The already cool HP Envy 15 is now demanding respect. Look at the touches here and there. This is the best looking laptop of all time! Sort of. Although it looks better than all Macs combined, it probably costs as much, too. $2,299 is the price, although you do get Beat Headphones, so it’s worth it.

Although you could get a 17 inch Macbook Pro for the same price….
