MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2018)
The 2018 15-inch MacBook Pro is Apple's large-screen Intel Pro laptop. Every configuration uses a 6-core Intel Core i7 or Core i9 chip, 16GB or 32GB of 2400MHz DDR4 memory, and a dedicated Radeon Pro graphics processor with 4GB of video memory alongside Intel UHD Graphics 630, switching between the two automatically.
Screen, keyboard and ports
The 15.4-inch Retina display runs at 2880 by 1800 with 500 nits of brightness, Wide color (P3) and True Tone. Above the full-size backlit keyboard is the Touch Bar with an integrated Touch ID sensor, and below it sits a large Force Touch trackpad. All four Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) ports support charging, DisplayPort and Thunderbolt at up to 40 Gbps, and the machine can drive up to two 5K displays at once.
Who it suits
This model suits people who want a large screen and real multi-core headroom on a budget: photo and video editors, developers running virtual machines, or anyone who wants a desktop-replacement laptop that can still travel at 1.83 kg. Apple lists macOS Sequoia as the newest compatible operating system.
Every refurbished 2018 15-inch MacBook Pro comes with a 12-month warranty and a 15-day change-of-mind return window, and delivery is free anywhere in New Zealand with no minimum spend.
