[Translation] The new MacBook Pro 16 inches evaluation: the developer's dream come true

To ask now for developers to use the notebook, there are still many options available in the market, such as Dell's XPS series, Alien series (the game is Leverage drops), Lenovo savior series, there are all kinds of high distribution models, prices ranging from a few thousand to tens of thousands.

But, gentlemen pen he said evaluation room, starting from $ 10,000 had been difficult to locate the way to a conclusion to the next product, the demand is more professional, the ultimate class.

As a result, new listings directly to your MacBook Pro 18999 price started to dry, let Cock wire prohibitive, so local tyrant hands itch, so that developers fascinated, known as "the history of the strongest notebook" (price really expensive, but really fragrant). So, where is it in the end strong. Xiao Bian to find a foreign language reviews, incidentally, the ability to learn English under a double benefit.

Yes, Apple has finally revised the keyboard, but there are places more worthy of love

Wednesday morning (2019.11.17), Apple announced the long-awaited new 16 inches MacBook Pro. Last week Apple sent me a new MacBook, so I can share my experience with the developer community, and in the past week, I use it as the main equipment

The first thing I noticed was the new keyboard. Butterfly keyboard and say goodbye! (A lot of people criticized butterfly keyboard, but how I still feel a little used to it, maybe I am too lazy.) I am not a loyal supporter of the butterfly keyboard, I know I'm not alone. The new keyboard has a higher raised keys and excellent resilience, allowing you to feel more natural. Personally, I prefer a deeper keyboard with a click sound and voice (I guess this author like mechanical keyboard). If you like silent keyboard, you may be disappointed. The new Apple keyboard named "Magic Keyboard" (Magic Keyboard), which I use every day with the same name as their external keyboard at work. The new MacBook Pro's Magic Keyboard has a similar feel and sound of the keyboard, which is a huge upgrade to the previous MacBook.

Since 2018, I opened the MacBook Pro 15 '' next to the new equipment, it is clear that Apple has improved retina display. Desktop color depth display is undeniable. The new MacBook Pro beyond the screen and into the specification, more powerful than any MacBook I've ever had. I was given a computer with 8 TB of storage space, 64 GB of RAM and 8-core CPU I think I will never be able to fill the 8 TB of storage space, but soon learned that I do not have to extend iCloud storage space, I am very satisfied. Meanwhile, 64 GB RAM is the development of a dream. I have a 16 GB RAM only the MacBook Pro, it can not handle some problems running simulator in Xcode while running other applications, even if the upgrade to 32 GB, the situation there is still lagging performance. The new MacBook Pro can handle Xcode and simulator running, overheating or will not happen any "run out of application memory" warning appears.

Each iOS developers to build all know time is critical. (In fact, every Android programmer is so right)

For me, the true reality of the moment is to determine whether Xcode build time will be improved. Each iOS developers to build all know time is critical. Even a little improvement, you can improve productivity, because in the preparation and testing of new code, you shorter waiting time between building. I'm Calm full time iOS developer, our iOS application contains about 97,000 lines of code. When I run Xcode on a 2018 15-inch MacBook Pro, our new building time is 216 seconds, incremental build about 7 seconds. On the new 16-inch MacBook Pro, rebuild shortened to 135 seconds, incremental build time reduced to 2 seconds. At this speed, the use of the new MacBook Pro developers wait half the time in the build process.

When the old version and the new version of MacBook MacBook side by side run Xcode, I realized I did not hear the sound of the new machine fan. I'm used to the noise of the fan, and my MacBook become so hot when I work, so I accepted the norm. But the new MacBook seems to have a more efficient thermal management. Fans had started several times, but has not been as keep running like 15 inches model, your computer does not get hot. This should make us more comfortable when using a laptop computer!

Let's look at the battery life. As a developer, when you run Xcode, I have almost no chance to have a longer battery life. At work, I will keep the computer power is on all day, and you want the computer can still work in case of need long meeting. I did not expect the new MacBook Pro will have better performance, but surprisingly it's battery is really good. I charge it in a morning, and then take from the charger down at around 10am. In the rest of the day, when I use Xcode, Slack, Safari, Github Desktop and so on, I did not bring the charger. My battery lasted until around 6:00 pm, which is a full working day. I think, if you run an application of low intensity, the battery may continue to use a full 11 hours.

The new MacBook Pro MacBook is the biggest improvement over the years.

For people who are not a developer, I believe that the new MacBook Pro is worth it. I open the Apple TV app to watch one of the new Apple TV + program, and sound shocking, Bose sound like such a high-quality external speakers. (Xiao Bian used the Bose QC 35, the speaker is not used, but 35 is really fragrant) voice easily filled my 700 square feet apartment (apartment this big). Usually, when I want to play music in their own apartment, I'll put the TV on TV, but I think from now on, I can use the new MacBook Pro. I started watching "morning program", surprised by the clarity of visual effects. Sloped sides 15 inches MacBook Pro and the new 16-inch difference between feeling much larger than one inch.

16 inches MacBook Pro is very expensive, depending on the specifications, price ranges from $ 2399 to $ 6099 (RMB 18999 - 22199) to. If you are not need a powerful developer or professional machine, then upgrade the monitor only, speakers and keyboard may not be worth it. 16 inches is also heavier than MacBook 15-inch MacBook (speak truth, I was 13 years of 15-inch, feel good weight). Weight lifting is not much, but you still will notice. So, if you've been on the road, the 16-inch MacBook Pro may not be the best choice for you.

All in all, this new MacBook Pro is the most significant improvements over the years the MacBook. This is by far the most powerful Apple laptop, whether you're a developer, filmmaker, podcasts, graphic designer or writer, I believe you will see increased efficiency, because the new Macbook Pro's speed, memory and functionality really powerful.

Epilogue

This week had wanted to translate a technology related to the article, see this article on the results of the MacBook Pro on Meduim, could not help but point looked into (because I'm half fruit powder, but also always concerned about the dynamic). And then, put the number of the month runs out of sin, so long as this put out.

I believe that many readers are looking for related evaluation, in order to give yourself a chance to whether the grass is, after all, this valuable. At first bought a small series of 15-inch notebook, ridicule family, bought something more expensive than gold, has done a ho (thing) love (with) strong (willing) Chi (illegal), to take advantage of good notebook, embarrassed, and now it will play Android, iOS developers never to have had unnatural, I really was too simple.

However, many domestic and foreign developers are advocating doing development with MBP, after all, the performance and use, is indeed slightly more astute. I hope this brief orientation with small text, give the reader a judgment.
