The 12-inch MacBook

Apple has a habit of producing outstanding laptops. The 12-inch MacBook is a prime example. Redesigned from the ground up, it has a thinner keyboard with larger key caps for easy typing, and a remarkably detailed 2304 × 1440 display. The Force Trackpad lets you select different controls with greater pressure, and the USB-C ports can handle power input, video output, and fast file transfers.

Under the hood, the MacBook has innovative tiered batteries. This allows Apple to squeeze 35 percent greater capacity into the same half-inch thickness. The 1.1GHz processor can reach 2.2GHz with Turbo Boost, and the fanless logic board holds 8GB of RAM and the powerful Intel HD Graphics 515. The whole thing weighs just two pounds, with a choice of four beautiful colors.
