Ever since the first Apple Macintosh introduced itself to the world with a spoken “hello” in 1984, the Mac has epitomised the ideal of everyday Information Technology that just works.
Today, almost 40 years later, the new generation of MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, as well as the Mac mini iMac supercharged by M1 and M2 chips, continue to bring their trusted mix of utility, joy, and ease of use to the home, workplace, and everywhere in between. But what exactly makes Mac work?
For starters, battery life. Load shedding has become a part of our everyday lives and a scheduled or unplanned electricity outage can play havoc with the computing technologies we’ve come to take for granted. That’s why the new Mac range, with its industry-leading battery life, is so ideally equipped to handle local conditions and challenges.
Take the entry-level MacBook Air M1, available at iStore for R16 999, in unplugged use, it’s officially rated for up to 15 hours of wireless web surfing. Entry-level MacBook Pro M2, R26 999, supports up to 20 hours of battery life and an active cooling system to sustain enhanced performance.
Mac also comes complete with a range of acclaimed apps for work and play, including Pages for words, KeyNote for presentations, Numbers for spreadsheets, and iMovie and GarageBand for unleashing your creative energies. If you’re making the switch from Windows, you’ll find its just as easy to use the full Microsoft Office suite (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook) which is fully compatible with Mac. The same applies to your Google Workspace apps. iStore has made switch easy, you can trade in your Windows Laptop at iStore save up to R10 000 on your new Mac.
Mac’s user-friendliness extends to its highly protective nature, ensuring that you’re able to run your apps with advanced security features for extra peace of mind. Every Mac features on-the-fly encryption to safeguard your data, as well as a Gatekeeper, which stands guard against malicious software from untrustworthy sources. MacBook, allows you to log in quickly and securely using Touch ID on your keyboard, safe in the knowledge that Apple’s revolutionary System on a Chip (SoC) processor will prevent unauthorised apps from loading.
Since all of these security features do their work in the background, there’s no need for you to worry about the settings and processes — Mac will take care of it.
Long battery life. Compatibility. Security. That’s what Mac can do.
