Apple MacBook Pro MB470LL-A 15.4-Inch Laptop – An Honest Review

August 12, 2009 – 5:57 am

If your love Apple designs and have some extra cash to spare, you should not hesitate to get yourself an Apple product. Whether it is an MP3 player, a desktop or a laptop, every Apple machine is head and shoulders above other brands in many ways. Of course, the extra features do come with a heavy premium (a much higher price tag).

Currently, the Apple MacBook Pro MB470LL/A 15.4-inch laptop is one of my favorite notebooks in the market. Although I like this model mainly for its good looks, its beautiful exterior does hide many powerful features on the inside. For starters, it is powered by a 2.4Ghz processor from Intel an has 250GB of storage. It also comes with 2GB of DDR3 RAM (max of 4GB) and NVDIA GeForce 9400 graphic cards.

Weighing at just 5.5 pounds, the Apple MacBook Pro MB470LL/A 15.4-inch Laptop pretty light for a 15-inch model. Like all the models in the latest MacBook range, it has a light aluminum frame and a beautiful 15-inch glossy LED display. Despite feeling a little lighter than usual, it feels very solid and durable.

The new Apple MacBook Pro MB470LL/A 15.4-inch laptop also has a new improved glass track pad that is 40% larger and comes with Apple’s multi-touch feature. It has a new lithium-polymer battery that can give up to 5 hours of use on a single charge. The keyboard also sports a couple of new features. Typing on it feels really good and it has back-lights to help you type in the dark.

As mentioned earlier, the Apple MacBook Pro MB470LL/A 15.4-inch laptop has a pretty steep price tag. Is it worth its price? Many features on this model can be found on many cheaper models (from other brands) in the market. The premium that you pay for the MacBook will be for its cutting edge design, user-friendly interface and the priceless ‘cool-factor’. In my books, it is absolutely worth it!
