But regardless of the configuration, the 13-inch MacBook Pro is a very worthy option if you're looking for a new laptop that's capable of handling intense creative tasks, like video editing, graphic design, or other forms of media production. It's safe to say that most of you might not need that beefier spec. It comes with that Core i5 processor by default, but you can upgrade to the Core i7 processor if you want more power. I received the $1,799 13-inch MacBook Pro to review, which features the latest 10th-generation Intel Core i5 processor, 16GB of memory, and an Intel Iris Plus Graphics card that Apple says improves graphics speed by up to 80 percent. The $1,299 base model starts at 256GB, while the $1,499 and $1,799 versions start at 512GB, and the $1,999 model starts at 1TB SSD.īoth of the lower-tier models come with older, 8th-generation Intel Core i5 processors, which can be upgraded to a Core i7 if you're willing to shell out a little extra money.īut the real star of the show here is, of course, the model with the beefiest base processor (and a price tag to match). In addition to the Magic Keyboard, Apple has doubled the amount of base storage across all of its 13-inch MacBook Pros (opens in a new tab).

And the change has officially reached this year's 13-inch MacBook Pro, as well.

Last year's 16-inch MacBook Pro was the first to finally ditch the Butterfly Keyboard in exchange for the company's new and improved Magic Keyboard. MacBook Air 2020 review: Apple gets this Air just right
