Pros & Cons of Apple MacBook Pro

This article is a part of our Extensive Hands-on Review of Apple MacBook Pro Review -

Pros

The unibody – This makes the laptop look far better than the previous ones. A single piece of thin aluminum that makes the Macbook Pro look neater, and stronger.
Automatic graphic switching – This is a battery saver, time saver and an ultimate feature. You won’t need to keep optimizing the graphics and brightness, its done automatically.
Battery life – The new battery got bigger, and has a life that can help you use the laptop wirelessly for long hours, at least for 7-8 hours at normal usage.
Simple and thin design – Am an Apple fanboy, so bound to appreciate every design. But this Macbook Pro has the design that really deserves the appreciation. Beautifully done and compact packed.
Cooler and quite – The polycarbonate bodies are normal and blending the temperature of the surroundings, but the Macbook Pro with aluminum body is normally cooler in touch, and rarely makes the heavy buzzing sounds when it gets heated up.

Cons

Expensive – Not everyone can afford buying it, except for those who feel the need of an Apple laptop with heavy specifications. I would rather go for any Windows alternative like Sony Vaio or Dell with similar specs and install Mac OS in it, if needed.
Non-removable battery – All the unibody laptops have got this disadvantage. You can’t replace the battery by yourself.
No memory card slot – When Apple is providing so many slots and sockets, they should have considered including a Memory card slot, for easier transfer for photos from cameras, or other devices. Why do we need to buy all the accessories separately and pay a big sum already for the Mac?
Heating up – As mentioned earlier, the non-rubber aluminum base gets heated up to an extent that your laps can’t bear it. It doesn’t happen always, but when its hot there is no other option than leaving the Pro switched off or at sleep.
