MacBook Pros that use Retina displays from Samsung reportedly are not affected by the same issues. ArsTechnica reports that the class action lawsuit says that because the two makes of the Retina displays "exhibit different levels of performance ... Read similar

Primate Labs benchmarks new Retina MacBook Pro models

www.tuaw.com Steven Sande 90 days ago

Apple bumped the processors in the Retina MacBook Pro line last week, pushing the 15-inch model to the 2.4, 2.7 or 2.8 GHz quad-core Intel Core i7 and the 13-inch to 2.5, 2.6, 2.9 or 3.0 GHz dual-core processors. As usual, Primate Labs grabbed a handy copy of their "flagship product" -- Geekbench -- and tested each model's performance. The 100 MHz increase in processor speed across the board on the 15-inch MacBook Pros was responsible for a 3 to 5 percent increase in performance as measured by the Geekbench 2 scores. Likewise, the 13-inch models received a bump in both speed and performance.... Read similar

Rumor Roundup: The incredible shrinking iPhone

www.tuaw.com Chris Rawson 128 days ago

This week was a particularly ridiculous one as far as Apple rumors go. The big "news" this week? Apple is launching a cheaper iPhone! Except that it maybe/probably isn't. Also, Apple's manufacturing orders for the iPhone are shrinking! DOOM! Except that maybe/probably isn't what happened at all... and there may be highly nefarious motives behind people making such claims. Smooth sailing is over for Apple (BGR) Some analyst is full of doom and gloom about Apple's future prospects. He's skeptical that Apple's single-device, high-margin approach to the smartphone market is the right answer, and... Read similar

Intel Y-level Ivy Bridge chips may dip below 13W, lead to speedy Windows 8 tablets

www.engadget.com Jon Fingas 164 days ago

Intel historically swings its attention to its latest generation of processors along with a new year, very nearly leaving the old platform by the wayside. There's hints, however, that the current Ivy Bridge architecture may have one last gasp. VR-Zone has published claimed specs for the Y level, a new tier of Ivy Bridge chips that would draw less energy than even the ultra-low voltage U roster. A range of processors from a 1.1GHz Pentium through to a 1.5GHz Core i7 would normally demand 13W or less of power, already lower than the 17W we know today, but step down further depending on the sit...

If you haven't played around with one yet, get down to an Apple store and see one for yourself. The images you've seen dancing around the web don't do it justice. More than ever, this Apple product makes its predecessor look stale and boring. Or, as I've said before, the new iMac makes the old iMac look like it was designed by Dell.
