If a 1.2 MHz CPU with a retina display can deliver superior performance than an Air, my kudos to Apple. On my rMBP it's a very different experience. I don't like working with any of the aforementioned apps on my wife's Air. Our performance is comparable and I would not suggest it's quick. All with modestly spec'd Mac's, comparable to my wife's Air. There is a group of 3 of us with Lightroom loaded (Aperture is my default, C1 is my future). Who knows how large his previews are, or how many presets he has loaded, of how large a cache he set, or what scrolling quickly in grid view looks like, or sharpening, or noise reduction. But he was not doing anything that would task resources. Ok, if this is for real I'll just order one, seems rather too snappy, browsing through pics as fast as Photomechanic
Best macbook widgets 2015 pro#
In the end, the 2015 Macbook is sexier, but a Macbook Pro is probably a better Apple laptop choice for the photographer. But the switch to all wireless accessories does pose some challenges with all my current external storage (SD cards + usb hard drives), and the throttling may be really annoying in real use. I too was interested in it, because it seems to be the best screen Apple has put in a laptop, ever. Not the best results, but about what I expected. Meanwhile on a conceptual basis I don’t see such a small laptop as the MacBook being used too much for Photoshop, but out of all of Apple’s ultra-portables, the MacBook does end up being the best fit due to its excellent screen." Rather the MacBook is falling behind on the basis of maximum clockspeeds and power limits, having to pull back because sustaining 2.4GHz for 28 seconds puts it outside of its power envelope for too long.
Performance is roughly on par with many of the Core i5 MacBook Airs, but it becomes a more significant gap once we step up to the i7, and I’d expect something similar if compared to a 2015 MacBook Air.įrom a throttling standpoint, at just 28 seconds long I don’t believe we’re seeing any kind of significant thermal throttling in this benchmark. "This being another multi-threaded test, the MacBook throttles harder and this leaves it towards the rear of the pack. Here's a review with a Photoshop test in it: All of its loaded on to a USB 3 external drive with the previews sitting on my internal SSD with 30 days of retention before having to load the previews again. I have a decent size library of 38,000 images with about 500gb of files. Adobe has been doing a great job of improving Lightroom's performance. But like I said, its way better than any previous version which use to stutter here and there. It almost a split second of load between the library and the development module. There is still the odd stutter and I'm being 'pretty picky' here. LR6 which was just released is by far the best version in terms of performance. I have a 2012 MacBook Pro with a Retina Display and Lightroom runs pretty good. The only thing i didnt like about the MBA was the screen resolution, now the new Macbook has a nice retina, but wondering how will perform in real life.Ĭheers and many thanks for sharing your experiences,
for travel i used to have a MBA i7, love it, then i tried the dark side with Surface Pro3 i7 (using it right now) but is just not cutting it for me. Thinking to order a 1.3 ghz version, but i cannot find anywhere any concesive benchmarks. Hi there, as they started to ship has anyone tried Lightroom on the new Macbook core m?
