New 15″ MacBook Pro battery test: 8 hours of surfin’ time

by DailyManila on June 16, 2009

Here’s another reason why you should get the new 15″ MacBook Pro — surf wirelessly for up to 8 hours!

AnandTech takes a look at the new MacBook Pros released at WWDC last week and focuses on the new non-removable battery design. Apple first introduced the non-removable battery into the 17″ Unibody MacBook Pro last fall with mixed reactions from the community. Apple’s reasoning behind making the battery custom and non-removable has been the ability to incorporate a larger battery that will provide even longer battery life. They’ve also argued that most laptop owners do not carry spare batteries. (Source: MacRumors.com)

It looks like the new design gained 46% improvement over the MacBook Pro 2006 model.
