Apple Macbook MC207LL-A Vs Asus UL30A-X5 13.3-Inch Laptop

Specifications: These laptops are two of my favorite laptop model for the past year. The Apple MacBook MC207LL/A is a full-featured 13.3-inch laptop while the Asus UL30A-X5 is a sleek ultra-thin model. Both these models have very strong selling points and I would definitely have a very hard time if I had to choose to buy either one. The Apple model has a 2.26Ghz processor, 2GB of DDR3 Ram and 250GB for storage. The Asus model on the other hand comes with a 1.3Ghz processor, 4GB of DDR3 RAM and 500GB of storage. Although the Apple laptop has a more powerful processor, the ample storage and RAM on the Asus model more than makes up for it. If you don't perform a lot of heavy computing tasks on your laptop (such as running heavy applications), the specs on the Asus machine would prove to be more than sufficient.

Design: The Apple MacBook MC207LL/A is full-sized laptop, weighing in at 4.7 pounds. The Asus UL30A-X5 is just 0.98-inches in thickness and is much more portable at just 3.74 pounds. The Apple MacBook sports an all-white uni-body polycarbonate external casing while the UL30A-X5 has a beautiful brushed-metal casing. It is of no doubt that the Asus model is the more portable machine but in terms of aesthetics, these two models are some of the most stylish laptops in the market.

Features & Performance: Considering the ample RAM on the Asus UL30A-X5, it is designed for heavy multitasking. The average user will find this model to be more than enough for running everyday computing tasks. The Apple MacBook MC207LL/A is more suited for handling moderate to heavy PC tasks. The DVD drive would also prove to be useful (not found on the Asus model). The battery on the MC207LL/A can last 7 hours on a single charge while the battery on the UL30A-X5 can last up am impressive 12 hours on one full charge. All in all, both models prove to be excellent 13.3-inch laptops depending on your personal preferences and computing needs. At the moment, the Apple MacBook MC207LL/A is price at around $954 each while the Asus UL30A-X5 is priced at around $691.

HP Pavilion Laptops Vs Apple MacBook Pro Laptops

Price: One of the most obvious differences between Apple and HP laptops is in their price. Apple laptops are usually about twice as expensive as HP laptops. The important question is whether the price is justified. The more expensive price tag is justified in terms of design, specs and performance. Whether you need these extras is a completely different issue.

Design: Many would agree that Apple laptops generally have a more sleek design compared to regular laptops. They are made of environmentally friendly materials and appear a little thinner than normal Windows based laptops. HP laptops on the other sports more adventurous designs, often decorated with patterns and motifs.

Features & Performance: With Apple laptops costing so much more, they usually do come with a set of powerful specs. The highlights of an Apple MacBook Pro in terms of performance would be the Mac OS, powerful graphics card and great performance. Apple computers are known for their superb multitasking performance. They also have a much longer battery lifespan compared to regular laptops. HP laptops on the other hand have great emphasis on entertainment and hence, come with many features in that aspect. Although the specs may not be as powerful as an Apple model, they do come close.

Overall: It is evident that Apple MacBook Pro laptops usually have more powerful specs than a HP laptop but whether it is worth double the price is a subjective issue. If you are looking for a stylish and powerful laptop (and have the extra cash to spare) an Apple laptop would make an ideal choice. On the other hand, if you are looking for a powerful, affordable and straightforward laptop (and don't need a powerful graphics processor), a HP laptop will make an excellent buy.
