OS X Mavericks, Apple’s newly-released update to its famed desktop operating system, may not offer a mind-boggling set of new features as well as enhancements to the naked eye, however in actual fact, the MacBook pro as well as MacBook Air notebooks both look set to reap the benefits of prolonged battery life.

The 13-inch MacBook Air 2013, which packs Intel’s new energy-efficient Haswell processor, can run for as much as 15 hours without charge, which aligns extremely well with Apple’s pledge from yesterday’s iPad media event, that the MacBook Air that boasts Intel’s most current as well as biggest chip, will see battery life enhancements of as much as 1.5 hours when running OS X Mavericks.

Apple has a knack for getting individuals of its products to embrace new software application releases sooner rather than later, as was seen with last month’s release of iOS 7. For those sitting on the fence as well as sticking, for the time being at least, with mountain Lion, this news of improved battery retention may just idea the balance, as well as if you’re the type of MacBook individual that likes to utilize their maker in any way times when on-the-fly, the complimentary Mavericks update would seem a no-brainer.

John Siracusa of Ars Technica has been doing some prolonged research study on MacBooks running mountain Lion vs. Mavericks, as well as in addition to finding that the gulf between this year’s using as well as last year’s is rather significant, he likewise made some fascinating comparisons with both OSes running on a 2007 MacBook Pro.

Indeed, as he has discovered, the MacBook pro of six years back can handle 3.15 hours on mountain Lion vs. 3.93 hours on Mavericks, however what is maybe even a lot more fascinating is that today’s MacBook Air can handle 12.07 as well as 15.68 hours respectively on mountain Lion as well as Mavericks. Not only is this a leap of nearly four hours of battery life, however in six years, MacBook battery life has improved fourfold, which is rather a jump even when we think about the fast-moving world of technology.

So, if you were wondering if there were any type of genuine benefits of upgrading to Mavericks, well, there you have it. Battery is substantially improved – a lot more so on the Haswell designs – as well as although Apple’s premium cost bracket continues to put some consumers off, it’s difficult to suggest the situation against the MacBook variety being among the best, if not, the very best in the business.
