Overview

Apple MacBook Pro

Editors rating
Rating: 8.0
Verdict

Apple's new 15in. MacBook Pro has a redesigned aluminium body, a new touchpad with expanded functionality and a dual graphics setup for either longer battery life or better performance. However, there's now less incentive to spend extra on a Pro because its 13in. mainstream cousin received a greater overhaul.

Typical price

£ 1488

Nokia E63

Review Although it's missing some features (chiefly HSDPA and GPS), Nokia's E63 is a well-thought-out, ergonomic and affordable smartphone.
