Apple MacBook Pro ME864ZP/A - i5-2.4GHz -13-inch with Retina Display
Product Description: Retina Display The Retina display reduces glare while maintaining incredible color 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. Build and Design Make no mistake that this is one of the best looking notebooks available right now. The 13-inch
MacBook Pro Retina (rMBP) features a very thin and sleek design weighing in only at 3.57 lbs and 0.75 inches thick. The rMBP is about a pound lighter and 20% thinner than it's non-retina counterpart. Interesting enough, the rMBP weighs half a pound heavier than the 13-inch MacBook Air and only .07-inches thicker so you can say that this is more or less in between the non-retina display MacBook Pro and the MacBook Air. In real world testing when carrying this around vs. the MacBook Air 13-inch, I couldn't really tell the difference after walking a mile with both (trying to simulate walking around an airport) in a backpack and messenger bag. If half a pound is going to kill you or if weight is a huge factor, then the Air would be a more viable option. The 13-inch rMBP has a similar aluminum unibody design of its larger 15-inch counterpart with the silver and black color scheme. Like all the Apple notebooks before it, the 13-inch Retina is solidly built and feels like a premium quality product. Open up the magnetic latch on the screen you will be greeted with a beautiful 13-inch Retina, a chiclet style backlit keyboard, and a large glass touchpad. On the left side, you'll find the MagSafe 2 power connector, two Thunderbolt ports, a USB 3.0 port, and a headphone/mic jack. Over to the right side, you'll be pleased to find a standard HDMI port, another USB port, and an SD card slot. FaceTime Camera The rMBP comes with a built in 720p FaceTime camera for video conferencing. It works great in a well-lit room but if you are relying on sunlight and on a slightly cloudy day, there will be a lot of noise on the image. Other than that, on Skype and FaceTime calls; people could hear and see me very clearly. Keyboard and Touchpad The keyboard on the 13-inch rMBP is a joy to type on. The chiclet style layout has been my favorite over the years and it doesn't feel cramped on this MacBook Pro even when coming from a 15-inch. If you are familiar with the 13-inch Air or even the non-retina counterpart of the MacBook Pro, you will be no stranger to the keyboard as they feel very similar which is great. You get the same responsiveness and bright backlit keyboard.
