The new MacBook Pro 15 ” Thunderbolt are very good (apart from the lack of SSD or HDD 7200 rpm). They include excellent processors, Thunderbolt and new technology, created in partnership with Intel. Only the 13 “screen has a ridiculously small in terms of resolution and provides a shadow of meanness on the board.

So we have the MacBook Pro 15 “.

The MacBook Pro 15-inch matte version has the same hardware configuration, in this test we will test the differences between the two machines.

Screen – Apple remains on the 16:10 ratio. It’s a bit higher than the 16 : 9 but it is more convenient for surfing in general. With a resolution of 1440×900 it has 24% more than most 15 “) 1366×768. It’s a shame the lack of an option Full-HD (1920×1080) or WUXGA (1920×1200) for the Apple MacBook Pro 15.

The name of the screen is “LP154WP4-TLA1″. It has a brightness of 260 cd / m² at the center of the screen. Compared to version WSXGA + (302 cd / m², matte) is 42 cd / m² less (14%). Thinking a little more this weekend, one thing is quite striking: the MacBook Pro models compete seriously. iMac is closely followed very closely by the 15 “high end in terms of performance. The question is: for how long?

But it is a question that remains unanswered, because we never know what to expect from Apple. However, it must be said that for now, a MacBook Pro 15 ” with a high-end LED Cinema Display and Henge Dock is simply an iMac power, portability and more.

The biggest advantage of the matte screen is the fact that we can really use it anywhere because the light will not be reflected. With a glossy screen, it will always be difficult to find the ideal angle to avoid glare, the train is often no such impossible. To counter the glare, you need a matte screen with high brightness. The images below show the version WXGA + and WSXGA matte version in the open.

At viewing angles of the screen, this Macbook Pro 15 screen does not differ much from the mass mobile phones on the market. From left to right you do not feel that the problems happen in very wide angles. By vertically against one feels the difference immediately and colors fade quickly.
