General
When it came out, this 15-inch Retina display laptop had the fastest standard configuration for a MacBook Pro, thanks to a fourth-generation 2.3GHz quad-core Intel Core i7 processor with Haswell architecture, a 512GB PCIe flash memory, 16 GB of internal memory and an NVIDIA GT 750M 2GB GDDR5 graphics card. Such a combination of features results in a wonderfully fast and powerful laptop that you can use for just about any audio or imaging project. As such, this laptop is ideal for DJs, travelling musicians and producers, and also as the core of your fixed studio setup. The 15-inch MacBook Pro with Retina screen comes with the 64-bit OS X Mavericks operating system and the iLife '13 software package.
Fast components
The fourth-generation 2.3GHz quad-core Intel Core i7 processor responsible for powering this MacBook Pro features Haswell architecture, which means that the 64-bit operating system uses each core's computing power optimally. That translates into your programs working smoother and faster than ever before! Furthermore, this MacBook Pro is equipped with 512GB PCI-e flash-based storage that works a full 60% faster than that of the previous generation of MacBook Pros.
Looks
All of this power is stored in an ultra-thin, rugged unibody housing made of aluminium. To be exact, the laptop is only 1.8 cm thick, so it will easily fit in any laptop case or backpack, making it ideal for mobile use. Furthermore, the 15.4-inch Retina screen is equipped with IPS technology and LED backlighting so you can enjoy clear, detailed images with life-like colours from any angle. The pixel density is in fact so high that the individual pixels aren't visible to the human eye. That means you can enjoy realistic imaging with 2800 by 1800 resolution.
