Here&#8217;s our full review<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Long had the MacBook Pro been the no-brainer laptop choice of the professional twenty-first century digital worker. Creatives, journalists and music producers alike would buy one, run it into the ground and then buy a new one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But then Apple slimmed the Pro down, took away USB-A, took away the SD card slot, and even reinvented the function row as the Touch Bar. People still bought the new MacBook Pro, but a few others raised an eyebrow or two as the price went up and the ports disappeared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yet the 2018 13in MacBook Pro is still a great computer. It has exceptional build, a vibrant display, an improved keyboard and solid battery life. But its price and hamstrung ports might put off those who still need peripherals in their workflow and aren\u2019t all in on cloud computing. Or dongles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">MacBook Pro 13in (2018): Price and availability<br>\nApple sells a 13in and a 15in MacBook Pro. Our colleagues at Macworld UK reviewed the 15in 2018 model. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here, we reviewed the 13in with Touch Bar, but you can also opt for a 13in without the Touch Bar. The latter is still the 2017 model, so if you want Coffee Lake 2018 Intel chips, you have to go for the more expensive Touch Bar models that start at \u00a31,749\/$1,799. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The model we received for review from Apple costs \u00a33,599\/$3,699 and has an Intel Core i7 processor, 16GB RAM and 2TB storage. If you need the eye-wateringly expensive 6-core Core i9 processor or 4TB SSD option, Apple forces you to get the pricier 15in computer \u2013 and the same applies for 32GB RAM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\n\n               &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.oriccabattery.co.uk\/battery-pc-laptop_Lab.htm\" target=\"_blank\">Laptop Battery<\/a> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.oriccabattery.co.uk\/hotproduct.htm\" target=\"_blank\">Hot Products\ufeff<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 2018 13in MacBook Pro is a capable laptop with beautiful design that makes the same compromises Windows laptops are making this year.
