The downclocked Nvidia GeForce GT 330M in the MBP17 reaches a noticeable performance boost compared to the old Geforce 9600M GT. The problem is kept within limits due to the case's low height, though. Merely the fairly sharp front edge is a bit unpleasant at longer typing. The feel of the utilized materials is excellent. The broad display hinge opens far enough, but is perhaps a bit to smooth. Merely the base plate can be dented marginally with strong pressure. The gaps are Apple-typically even and the display lid also closes absolutely flush. The aluminum case has virtually been manufactured without flaw. Nevertheless, the 17" MacBook Pro is likely still the most beautiful 17" notebook on the market even after a year. Still it doesn't look as attuned as the small MacBook's due to the large gaps between the keyboard and case's limits. The design is practically identical to the smaller MacBook, or rather the 15" MacBook Pro models - just simply bigger.
The unibody case is still milled from one single aluminum piece and pleases with its plain, timeless design. Thus, the following parts of the test are partly based on the review of the 17" Unibody MBP of 2009. The case of Apple's biggest notebook remains untouched in the new model. 3D Printing, 5G, Accessory, AI, Alder Lake, AMD, Android, Apple, ARM, Audio, Benchmark, Biotech, Business, Camera, Cannon Lake, Cezanne (Zen 3), Charts, Chinese Tech, Chromebook, Coffee Lake, Comet Lake, Console, Convertible / 2-in-1, Cryptocurrency, Cyberlaw, Deal, Desktop, E-Mobility, Education, Exclusive, Fail, Foldable, Gadget, Galaxy Note, Galaxy S, Gamecheck, Gaming, Geforce, Google Pixel, GPU, How To, Ice Lake, Intel, Intel Evo, Internet of Things (IoT), iOS, iPad, iPad Pro, iPhone, Jasper Lake, Lakefield, Laptop, Launch, Leaks / Rumors, Linux / Unix, List, Lucienne (Zen 2), MacBook, Mini PC, Monitor, MSI, OnePlus, Opinion, Phablet, Radeon, Raptor Lake, Renoir, Review Snippet, Rocket Lake, Ryzen (Zen), Science, Security, Single-Board Computer (SBC), Smart Home, Smartphone, Smartwatch, Software, Storage, Tablet, ThinkPad, Thunderbolt, Tiger Lake, Touchscreen, Ultrabook, Virtual Reality (VR) / Augmented Reality (AR), Wearable, Wi-Fi 7, Windows, Workstation, XPS, Zen 3 (Vermeer), Zen 4
