The MacBook Pro Retina Display is the latest buzz in the technology market. The most talked about features that one can immediately find are the slim and elegant body made of aluminum, excellent speakers and of course the best is the Retina display. Interestingly, the most impressive of its features is the staggeringly high resolution. However, these are not just the impressive features, there are more; let’s find out what else this new MacBook has.
retina display
This is the best feature of this MacBook. This is a powerful 15-inch retina display with a 2880 by 1800 resolution that delivers a stunning 5-megapixel image. The screen is so sharp and clear, thanks to its 221 pixels per inch. So, this is all in terms of clarity that’s on par with HDTV, which is included in the MacBook Pro’s display.
screen display
We are all aware of the importance of sharpness when it comes to on-screen display. You can easily compare the sharpness of the image displayed by MacBook Pro Retina Display with another laptop. You’ll find a striking contrast between the MacBook Pro and any other laptop, not just the picture quality, but also the sharpness is much better on the Mac, including the technology used in the panel. The reason, the use of IPS screens that are responsible for providing an immaculate image display.
Another interesting aspect to note is that when booting up a laptop, the user will encounter various display settings related to resolution settings. The screen is divided into two resolution options:
1. Best for Retina display
2. Scaling
If you choose the Scaled option, you will find numerous resolution options to select and apply. In addition, you will also receive an alert message that says: Using a scaled resolution may reduce performance. You can choose to adjust the resolution size according to your requirements or to best suit your graphics or display needs.
retina and non-retina
There are applications that are compatible with Retina and easily adapt to changes. For example, there is software like Aperture that enables retina-ready image clarity. This gives an advantage to duplicate UI elements. The clarity in the display of the user interface is visibly clearer.
On the other hand, non-retina software can’t display a clear user interface, which leaves the screen a bit fuzzy and fuzzy, unless you’re using Safari to navigate. This means that many applications need to be updated to adapt to retina technology.
Interestingly, when it comes to viewing the screen at different angles, the MacBook Pro is just as impressive. Whether you place it on the table or move the screen to another angle, you can see an equally clear and realistic screen at any angle. Additionally, the backlighting is also impressive as it doesn’t bleed and is even across all angles. The screen is also not that reflective and bright; this is the reason behind its clarity at any angle. The user is saved from the glare that most reflective and bright screens have.
Skinny body
Another impressive and eye-catching feature of this laptop is the slim body which is slimmer than its predecessor. It measures 0.71 inches with a sleek, slim profile to look at, weighing just 4.46 pounds. The Apple logo traditionally found on the rear is now under the machine.

For those who are more interested in webcam chat and Skype chat sessions, a 720p webcam is mounted on the top of the screen. You will be able to enjoy good audio and visual quality, Internet content will be visually clearer, and the gaming experience will also be impressive. With average use, you can enjoy any activity for a flat 7 hours. If you set the screen brightness to 50%, you can squeeze out a few more minutes (39 minutes or so).
refrigeration system
Compared to the previous model, this model is redesigned to provide ample cooling for the laptop. The vents are on both sides of the laptop, doing its sleek and stylish appearance justice without being an eyesore. The thermals do justice to keeping the laptop cool compared to its previous models.
