It does well in final cut pro and adobe premiere, but export times are longer than with a pro. Regardless the performance is very respectable, and the fan noise / temps never really become noticeable except during heavy editing / gaming.

Is this a sarcastic remark? Because this is not a good review. This guy doesn't even know that the RAM in all of the Apple laptop and desktop computers is the same which is 1600 MHz.

I was being serious. About the RAM, I don't know what the RAM speed is and was in other Apple computers. So he might get a -1 for that if you're right. But other than that,he knows what he's talking about, period.

The new MBP's are rumored to use the 28W ULV's (vs the 15W in the MBA) which also can only use ram up to 1600MHz.

All of Apple's modern computers will occasionally drain their battery a bit if plugged in for a while and then let it charge back up a bit, to keep it conditioned. That said, I drain it to empty every 2 days, but usually leave my gaming laptops (Alienware) plugged in all the time.

Also, it's important to iterate that for better battery life you should have chosen the i5 configuration as the i7 takes a hit in bl close to 20%. Oh, and I bet developers will probably take advantage of mavericks power saving features once it's released.

Did you regret buying the macbook air? It seems you need the power of the macbook pro based on ghz. You are running that Air at an overclocked speed most of the time you are using Final Cut. Do you regret buying the Air? I am buying the new macbook pro when it comes out soon.

(1) The last connector design was flawed, if you pulled the plug at certain angles the machine would fall into the ground. (2) The Ram (LPDDR3) speed and processor choices were all wise to optimize for a higher BATTERY LIFE endurance, NOT performance.

Hello! I am thinking of a buying a laptop. But I am contemplating between two options: 1. Mac book air (i7, 8gb ram and 512ssd) 2. Mac book pro (i5, 8gb ram and 512ssd) My concern is does the MBA option match up with the basic MBPr in terms of performance after I have upgraded to i7? Would really love to hear your advice! Or anyone's view on this (: Thanks!

try to get the mac book pro with i7, 8gb, 512, or the i5, 16 ram and 512. it is depend of what you do. However, between this 2 option I prefer the macbook air. Its just my opinion

Asif Ali Rahman When getting a higher MHz ram you sacrifice latency, while lower MHz ram gets less latency. So there is no reason to get anything above 1600MHz. 1600MHz is a very well balanced speed.
