I personally find it quite limiting because having a normal USB port, that rectangular one, would have so much more useful. There's only one port on the Macbook and that's the USB-C port. Go ahead, put a piece of paper on your table and pretend to type on it. It's almost light typing on a piece of paper. There's almost no feedback when pressing the buttons. Vertical space of the buttons is reduced. Unfortunately, the keyboard isn't comfortable to type on. The keyboard almost fills the whole of the bottom part and there's a large trackpad. Speakers are just above the keyboard and they sound good. The only downside is its glossy screen, but that also makes the colours more vibrant. Macbook's screen is a LED-backlit IPS panel so colour reproduction and viewing angles are great. Here's a table comparing the Macbook and the Macbook Airs.Ģx USB 3, Thunderbolt 2, MagSafe 2 power portĢx USB 3, Thunderbolt 2, MagSafe 2 power port, SD card slot

It's actually smaller than the 12.9-inch iPad Pro that weighs 713 grams, and that's without the keyboard. It's actually just slightly bigger than my old 9.7-inch iPad Air. When I first hold it in hand, I'm really impressed by the size and weight. The unit that I have is the dual-core 1.1GHz, 8GB RAM, 128GB flash storage and Intel HD Graphics 5300. However, I was still interested enough to see how it actually fares so I borrowed a unit to test it out. It's just not the right laptop to do the job. The short answer is yes it's powerful enough but it has serious limitations. This review is for artists and designers wondering if the Apple 12-inch Macbook is good enough for graphics work.
