When shopping for laptops in Dubai, it's essential to understand that different brands and models offer various features. Therefore, it is beneficial to shop around and compare prices before making your purchase.
Apple recently unveiled their newest MacBook Pro and Mac mini models with M2 processors, featuring an array of features at competitive prices in Dubai.
1. Retina display
If you're in search of a screen with a higher resolution than what your current Mac provides, the Retina display of the MacBook Pro is an ideal option. It boasts crisp images and text, plus transitions look smoother than on most regular resolution screens available today.
Apple refers to these high-resolution displays as Retina due to their impressive pixel density. According to Apple, a Retina display boasts such an incredible pixel density that it becomes almost imperceptible to the human eye when held at normal viewing distances.
2. Intel Core i7 processor
The Intel Core i7 processor is one of the most sought-after Intel CPUs. They're often found in prebuilt mainstream computers and offer an excellent combination of performance and price.
The i7 processor features two to six cores and supports up to 12 concurrent threads. Its clock speed ranges from 1.70 GHz to 3.90 GHz, and its cache memory covers a memory range of 4 to 12 MB.
The Intel Core i7 processor is built for heavy-duty tasks, especially gaming or other high-end activities. However, for general computing needs and light apps, the i5 can suffice. Furthermore, it features Turbo Boost technology which allows you to boost processing power without needing a hardware upgrade.
3. Intel HD Graphics 620
The Intel HD Graphics 620 is an integrated graphics processor found in many 8th Generation Core U-series CPUs. This version boasts an increased clock speed of 100 MHz over its predecessor.
As such, the Intel HD Graphics 620 is more than twice as fast in games compared to a entry level laptops with an outdated GPU. This means even modern high-end titles such as GTA V and League of Legends can be enjoyed on a laptop without a dedicated GPU.
However, to maximize performance from this chip, you need an updated Intel HD Graphics 620 driver. Unfortunately, Intel's drivers may not always support the most recent hardware, leading to issues with displays and gaming.
4. 8GB RAM
When shopping for a laptop, RAM is one of the most essential features to take into account. Not only will it increase your computer's speed, but its responsiveness and performance as well.
8GB is typically sufficient for most productivity users, though you may require more if you're doing intensive gaming or running multiple programs simultaneously.
For heavy users or those who use CAD software, video editing apps, or games requiring high-end graphics, 16GB of memory may be beneficial. It will enable multitasking more smoothly and avoid lags; however, this additional expense is rarely justified for most people.
5. 256GB storage
For your MacBook Pro to serve as your primary computer, it must have a minimum storage capacity of at least 256GB. This is because, over time, you'll accumulate files and data - photos, music, movies - that need space over time.
Additionally, you'll require plenty of storage for your work. For instance, you'll require a large enough hard drive to save all your Lightroom libraries or other projects.
Apple has responded to customer demand and now offers top-of-the-line models with 512GB or 1TB of storage - providing plenty of room for years of hassle-free computing and should be taken into account when selecting your next MacBook.
6. Intel Iris Graphics 540
The Intel Iris Graphics 540 is an advanced integrated graphics solution found in mainstream mobile Skylake processors since 2015.
The 540 features 48 execution units and a maximum frequency of 1.1 GHz, all built on 14 nm process technology. Furthermore, it features 64 MiB of eDRAM side cache for improved performance on-chip.
The Iris 540 is an ideal option for gamers who want to play high-detail games at 4K resolution but don't require as much strain on their GPU. Unfortunately, it isn't as fast as a third-party card and should not be relied upon solely for gaming or high-resolution video editing tasks.
