As a result, it is the biggest MacBook screen so far after the discontinuation of the 17-inch unibody MacBook Pro in 2012. It has a larger 16-inch 3072×1920 Retina display with a thinner bezel than its predecessor. On November 13, 2019, Apple unveiled the fifth generation 16-inch MacBook Pro, which replaces the previous generation’s 15-inch edition. The price range for the MacBook Retina pro started from $2199, which was even more than models with higher specifications. There were some drawbacks to the new MacBook Retina, such as a soldered memory board which made it un-upgradable, and the lack of Ethernet and Firewire 800 port, among other things.Īpple rolled out several updates to the MacBook Pro, such as increasing the RAM of the high-end 15-inch model to 16 GB, slimming down the chassis of the 13-inch model, and adding support for a 15-inch model for dual-cable output to multiple 5120×2880 displays, and so on. The new model included Intel’s Core i7 processors, USB 3.0, and a high-resolution 15.4″ IPS 2880×1800-pixel Retina Display. Apple had kept the thickness at 0.71 inches by eliminating the laptop’s optical drive, inviting several people’s wrath.

Apple’s Phil Schiller introduced the next generation MacBook pro by saying, “It’s thinner than my finger”.

This was a huge boost for Apple enthusiasts, and the new introduction worked like a charm for the people waiting for the next version of the MacBook.

The year 2012 marked the entry of the MacBooks with a Retina display.
