Tabs in Finder, Useful new apps, Enhanced performance, Great multi, display improvements
Suboptimal tagging, Some elements still pig, ugly, Few moments of excitement, Feels a bit unfinished
On balance, the experience is positive, but there's a feeling Mavericks is a touch unfinished and that this iteration of OS X was rushed. Our hope is that Mavericks represents further evidence of Apple rapidly iterating OS X, bringing new features and id...

Battery life improvements are great, notifications, improved multiple display support, it's free (from Snow Leopard and beyond)
Different to iOS 7 design language, check for third-party application support to be sure, Quick Look is slow, Mail not as fast
Mavericks is a free upgrade so it's really hard to complain about, well, anything much. Quick Look seems initially slower than before, while Mail doesn't seem as speedy as its predecessor. We might also question why Apple hasn't gone down a more iO...

Smooth running and efficient, Fully featured, Tightly integrated with iOS 7, Cleaner looking, Smart new power management features
Minor inconsistencies here and there
Once again, Mavericks shows that Apple got things right when it chose to create separate operating systems for computers on one hand, and for phones and tablets on the other. OS X is the smoothest, most reliable, most convenient, and most manageable cons...

VERDICT Mavericks 10.9 is a solid update to arguably the world's best desktop operating system. Disappointed by 'solid'? So were we, a little bit. Maybe it's our hangover from iOS7's release: we reckon that Apple had an opportunity to do something truly s...
Better support for multiple monitors; Finder tabs; improvements to performance and battery consumption; new Maps and iBooks apps; and updates to Safari and Calendar; new productivity features
None, yet...
OS X Mavericks may come with an unloved codename but the software behind it shows another strong step toward the unification of Macs and iOS devices. But some added features can also make users focused on Mac productivity cheerful too, and the system seem...
Abstract: At least, that's what the arrival of Mac OS X Mavericks 10.9 feels like, such has been the deafening noise accompanying the build-up to the launch of Apple 's iOS 7 . A humble Mac desktop point release? It never stood a chance.Packed with new features and...
Abstract: Mavericks has plenty of modest refinements that add up to a system well worth the upgrade - even if Apple weren't giving it away for free.Many years ago, Web surfing changed dramatically when the Opera browser offered a way to open multiple Web pages in t...
Abstract: I woke up yesterday (a bit difficult, because I stayed up the night before to watch the Apple Event) and proceeded to download the new, free OS X 10.9 upgrade, or as it's better known, Mavericks .Frankly, I was willing to shell out upwards of US$30-$50 fo...
Abstract: 雖然 OS X Mavericks 不像 iOS 7 有這麼大規模的改版,但這次更新加入了大量 iOS 元素,不只在程式和介面做了改版,加入了 iOS 上的 iBooks、Apple 地圖。看不到的底部也加入了不少省電和效能增強,像是 App Nap、記憶體壓縮,讓老 Mac 也可以有更好的效能與續航力表現。OS X 10.9 代號 Mavericks,看似是一次小版號的升級,但這代取消了過往貓科的代號命名方式,改用了加州地名,也意味著 OS X 正走向了一個新的路線。Mavericks 雖然還是維持了 ...
