A groundbreaking Retina display. All-flash architecture. The latest Intel processors. Remarkably thin and light 13-inch and 15-inch designs. Together, these features take the notebook to a place it’s never been. And they’ll do the same for everything you create with it.

When you pack so many pixels into a display — over four million on the 13-inch model and over five million on the 15‑inch model — the results are positively stunning. The pixel density is so high, your eyes can’t discern individual pixels. Images take on a new level of realism. A spectacular 2560x1600 resolution on the 13‑inch MacBook Pro and an equally impressive 2880x1800 resolution. And text is so sharp, you’ll feel like you’re reading email, web pages and documents on a printed page.

The Retina display reduces glare while maintaining incredible colour and quality. Its high contrast ratio results in blacker blacks and whiter whites. And everything in between is rich and vibrant. IPS technology gives you a wide, 178 degree view of everything on the screen, so you’ll see the difference at practically any angle. And you’re going to love what you see.

With the latest-generation dual-core Intel Core i7 processor, the 13 inch MacBook Pro with Retina display lets you take your most performance-hungry apps on the road. That means wherever you can take your camera, you can take Aperture and your entire digital photo studio too. Hyper-Threading technology, which enhances performance by letting each core handle multiple tasks simultaneously, is included in every model. And with speeds up to 2.8GHz, shared L3 cache up to 4MB and Turbo Boost speeds up to 3.3GHz, these processors are ready for just about anything.

The 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display features Intel Iris Graphics, which boost performance by up to 90 per cent1 — so it can handle both everyday tasks and graphics-intensive creative apps. Scroll through large photo albums with ease. Play games with amazing detail. Even connect an external display or two. It’s just another way this 13-inch MacBook Pro is small on size and big on performance.

The 13-inch MacBook Pro now lasts up to nine hours between charges, and the 15-inch model lasts up to eight hours. That’s impressive battery life for any notebook. But for a high-performance notebook with an ultra-high-resolution display, state-of-the-art processors and graphics, and a super-slim design, it’s absolutely remarkable. The built-in battery gives you up to 1,000 full charge and discharge cycles and up to 30 days of instant-on standby time.
