No visible screw covers around the display bezel. Unlike other laptops, every feature has been taken very seriously and it is obvious that Apple has put much effort into making this a sleek and understated design. Only underneath are small color-matched screws visible, and a very small gap between the bottom panel and the unibody.Īs usual, Apple has paid particular attention to detail when designing the MacBook Pro. A singular piece of metal reduces the amount of individual parts and screws required, making the manufacturing process simpler, but also making the case stronger. The unibody is constructed using a single piece of aluminum, which is machined to provide a solid structure for the MacBook Pro, but it is also the case that contains all the components. The MacBook Pro uses what Apple call a unibody design.
