The MacBook Pro 13" 2017 is powered by a dual-core Intel Core i5 processor. While not as powerful as higher-end i7 processors, the i5 chip still offers solid performance for most everyday computing tasks such as web browsing, word processing, multimedia consumption, and light photo editing.
With 8GB of RAM, the MacBook Pro provides enough memory for smooth multitasking, allowing users to run multiple applications simultaneously without experiencing significant slowdowns. However, for more memory-intensive tasks such as video editing or running virtual machines, users may find 8GB of RAM somewhat limiting.
The laptop is equipped with a 128GB solid-state drive (SSD) for storage. While SSDs offer faster read/write speeds and better durability compared to traditional hard disk drives (HDDs), the 128GB capacity may be somewhat limited for users with large media libraries or those who need to store a significant amount of data locally. Users might need to utilize external storage solutions or cloud storage services for additional space.
The MacBook Pro features a 13.3-inch Retina display with a high resolution, vibrant colors, and excellent viewing angles. The Retina display provides sharp text and crisp images, making it suitable for tasks such as document editing, web browsing, and watching videos.
