APPLE MACBOOK PRO 13 REVIEW: Design
Apple has not changed much at the basic design of the 13-inch MacBook Pro. It comes in the same Silver or Gray color. The dimensions are roughly the same at 11.97 x 8.36 x 0.61-inches. This is slightly thicker than the previous model which had a depth of 0.59-inches.
It’s also slightly heavier (3.1 pounds) than the 2019’s (3.02 pounds). This difference won’t be too noticeable for most people and It is still reasonably light for a pro laptop. The screen remains the same as last year’s model which is not a bad thing.
There is no huge amount of change in the design of the new Apple MacBook Pro 13-inch but Apple has made tweaks and they are noticeable and welcome. One thing that Apple changed with the design is the thick bezels around the screen. This makes the new MacBook Pro 13-inch feeling outdated.
Display-MACBOOK PRO 13 REVIEW
The Apple MacBook Pro’s display with a resolution of 2560 x 1600 remains unchanged when compared to the previous model. But it is still among the best that you can get on a 13-inch laptop.
It made with the True Tone technology which changes the color temperature of the display depending on the ambient light and P3 wide color gamut support. This last bit is very important for photographers and video editors who need to work on projects that require accurate colors.
APPLE MACBOOK PRO 13 REVIEW: Keyboard
On opening up the new MacBook Pro 13-inch, Apple has finally replaced the controversial Butterfly switch keyboard with the new Magic Keyboard. The overall typing experience is a lot more comfortable and good than before. The Magic Keyboard’s keys feel pillows soft.
The Magic Keyboard also includes a dedicated physical Esc key and it is no longer hidden in the Touch Bar. Apple has also changed the arrow keys to an inverted-T arrangement which makes them easier to find.
Performance
The MacBook Pro 13 inch 2020 comes with a quad-core 10th gen Intel Core Core i5 processor running at 2-GHz, 16GB of 3733MHz RAM and 512GB of storage. Even with dozens of tabs open in Chrome, streaming Spottily and editing images, the Apple MacBook Pro remained responsive and also faster than last year’s model.
The MacBook Pro 2020’s Iris Plus graphics are perfectly suitable for photo editing and video editing. But don’t expect to play demanding games at high frame rates. This laptop hit just 18 frames per second on the Civilization VI benchmark, which is just a bit lower than the XPS 13’s 19 frames per second.

MACBOOK PRO 13 REVIEW: If you are not a fan of Apple, especially its designs, then you have not feel the need to get this laptop. Apple has stuck to the same design that means there are competing laptops from Dell, HP, Razer and even Microsoft, which look and feel a little bit more modern. But looks are not everything.
