Det har lite oväntat dykt upp recensioner av OS X 10.9 Mavericks. Och det är inte från bloggare som laddat ner beta versionen och struntar i NDA. Det är istället recensioner godkända av Apple. Jim Dalrymple på The Loop förklarar:
“After Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference ended, Apple supplied me with a 13-inch MacBook Pro and a copy of OS X Mavericks to evaluate and post my thoughts on The Loop. The version of Mavericks I tested was newer than the one released at WWDC, but not as new as the one released on Monday.”
Det är ungefär samma förfarande som med Mountain Lion och tydligen så Apple arbetar numera. Vad säger testarna då?

“If you use multiple monitors, you previously had to choose between using Apple’s cool features and actually taking advantage of your two monitors. Now it just works.”

“Updates to Notifications likely didn’t get the sort of feedback Apple had hoped during WWDC. Granted, additions to functionality introduced in Mountain Lion won’t elicit the same sort of excitement as brand-new features, but there are certainly some welcome upgrades here. Most notable is the addition of Quick Reply for Mail and Messages. When you get a note from one of those two proprietary apps, you can reply directly within the alert. That means you don’t have to reconfigure and launch a new application to shoot off a quick reply — yet another way Mavericks is aimed at helping to reduce clutter.”
Jim Dalrymple på The Loop
“The real shining point of Mavericks is the continued integration between OS X and iOS. Whether it’s Maps directions shared to your mobile device or passwords being synced from your iPhone to your Mac, Apple is making their entire ecosystem work for the user.To be clear, I see this as more of an integration of the user’s information, not the two operating systems. Apple is using the best operating system for mobile and desktop uses, while allowing the user to sync information between the two.”
