It seems that the standard MacBook Pro did not just receive a
hardware refresh, but there is also the next generation model – an all
new 15-inch MacBook Pro that goes the way of the new iPad as well as
iPhone 4/4S, which is to come with a stunning Retina Display. Not only
that, this next generation MacBook Pro will feature all flash storage as
well as quad-core processors. Despite packing in such firepower, it
will not weigh you down literally – how can it do so when it comes in an
extremely thin and light design that measures just 0.71-inches and tips
the scales at a mere 4.46 pounds?
Apple’s CEO, Tim Cook, has this to say about the new MacBook Pro,
“The MacBook Pro with Retina display pushes the limits of performance
and portability like no other notebook. With a gorgeous Retina display,
all flash architecture and a radically thin and light design, the new
MacBook Pro is the most advanced Mac we have ever built.”
The new MacBook Pro Retina Display is touted to be the world’s
highest resolution notebook display, sporting more than 5 million
pixels, which is 3 million more than your regular HD television. It has a
count of 220 pixels-per-inch, making the Retina Display’s pixel density
so high that the human eye cannot distinguish individual pixels from a
normal viewing distance, making your text and graphics look extremely
sharp. The Retina display relies on IPS technology in order to deliver a
178-degree wide viewing angle, and boasts of 75% less reflection and
29% higher contrast than the previous generation.
Apart from that, it comes in a precision engineered aluminum unibody
design, sporting an all flash storage architecture, the latest Intel
Core i7 quad-core processors, NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M discrete graphics,
up to 16GB of faster 1600 MHz RAM, a couple of Thunderbolt and two USB
3.0 ports, and a new HDMI port. You get up to 7 hours of wireless
productivity, where other hardware specifications include a FaceTime HD
camera, glass Multi-Touch trackpad, full-size backlit keyboard, dual
microphones, enhanced speakers, 3-stream 802.11n Wi-Fi and a thinner
MagSafe 2 power port.
Prices start from $2,199 upwards, depending on the configuration that you want.
