5 truths about Apple's new 12-inch MacBook: I'll cry after reading this

Want to buy an ultra-portable notebook? The 12-inch MacBook launched by Apple this year may be a good choice. It weighs only 0.9 kg, has a gorgeous Retina display, and is extremely thin and light; but at the same time, it is a unique product with only one port on the whole machine. Obviously, the unique design of the MacBook makes it quite controversial and has also generated some confusing rumors. Below, we will analyze several key points to restore the true situation of the MacBook.

Viewpoint 1: A MacBook with only one port is not easy to use

Conclusion: Incorrect

Currently, the MacBook is the only laptop on the market that is equipped with only one port, and this design is inevitably questioned. However, this USB-C port actually represents the future computer connection standard, supporting the USB 3.1 specification, with a transfer rate of up to 10Gbit/s, and rich connectivity. With just this port, you can complete charging, data transmission, image output, etc. Of course, the inconvenience in use is that you need to use a compatible accessory to achieve charging and other needs at the same time.

Viewpoint 2: MacBook cannot play games

Conclusion: Basically true

The MacBook uses the latest Intel Core M processor and fanless design to achieve an ultra-thin body design. Of course, the 1.1GHz main frequency and integrated Intel HD 5300 graphics card are not enough to run high-end games. However, it is still possible to play small games such as "Minecraft". At the same time, if the resolution is reduced to 1280*800 pixels, Steam can be installed to run more games.

Opinion 3: The MacBook's camera is not good

Conclusion: True

There is no doubt that MacBook is expensive. The starting price is 9288 yuan, which is not cheap for an ultra-portable notebook with low performance. More importantly, the MacBook Air of the same brand has a higher cost performance. Except for the slightly lower screen resolution, the performance and battery life are better.

Opinion 4: MacBook is too expensive

Conclusion: True

There is no doubt that MacBook is expensive. The starting price is 9288 yuan, which is not cheap for an ultra-portable notebook with low performance. More importantly, the MacBook Air of the same brand has a higher cost performance. Except for the slightly lower screen resolution, the performance and battery life are better.

Point 5: MacBook is not capable of basic productivity operations

Conclusion: Incorrect

Although the main frequency of MacBook is 1.1GHz, its turbo frequency can reach up to 2.4GHz. At critical moments, it can increase the main frequency to achieve better performance, which is enough to run PhotoShop and Final Cut Pro and meet certain productivity needs.
