13-inch Retina MacBook Pro Review: So Good, But So Not Worth It
The difference isn't as dramatic as it was for the 15-inch retina, though, so you don't get the sense of this being a radical new thing as much as an intermediary between the incumbent 13-inch Pro and Air. It's not just the graphics performance being too similar to a MacBook Air, or the minor but perceptible systemwide slowdown when you use a higher resolution setting

However, Mac enthusiasts are unlikely to be too concerned by the limited ports, since Apple eases the pressure on the USBs in other ways, such as its Magic Mouse and wireless keyboard. Multi-threaded applications are also handled quickly thanks to hyperthreading, though the native quad-core i7 CPUs are still some way ahead in this area
This isn't a point of comparison but something that seems worth noting: almost as soon as I brought the Air and Pro into the same house, they began a power struggle over the Wi-Fi connection. Enlarge Enlarge Like its larger 15-inch brother, the retina MacBook Pro has a full-size HDMI port, two USB 3.0 ports, an SD card reader, two Thunderbolt ports, a headphone jack, and a port for the power cable

Even then, we couldn't hear the sound over the music from our game, though if you're attempting to, say, edit video in silence, you might notice the machine getting a bit loud. Additionally, as we said, we installed Windows on a separate partition, where we ran the same tests we normally run on PCs (precisely so that we could compare the performance more directly)
http://www.amazon.com/Apple-MacBook-MGXA2LL-15-Inch-Processor/dp/B00G2KNGT4I've never seen one on the Macbooks, so I bought this sight unseen, but I had a vague idea of how it might look because I also own a retina iPad Mini and that screen is lovely. A heavy plastic body that housed a removable battery, hard drive, ram and an optical drive is replaced with an aluminum unibody design where nothing is intended to be removable

But if you're looking for the best combination of power, display quality and endurance for a reasonable price, the 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina Display represents a pretty sweet middle ground.

Apple MacBook Pro with Retina Display (13-inch, 2015) review - CNET
The Bottom Line While the upcoming 12-inch MacBook has all the buzz, this 13-inch system gets a handful of updates to remain a top choice for combining power and portability. The current Air models are held back by aging designs and low screen resolutions, and the 15-inch MacBook Pro has not received the same updates or new trackpad, and is simply too big to lug around more than once or twice a week (although it's great for a desk-bound system)
The 13-inch model's display has a native resolution is 2560 x 1600 pixels, though 1680 x 1050 is the highest resolution accessible through the Display system preference. Apple's standard suite of application software is included on both MacBook Pros; you get the iLife (iMovie, iPhoto, GarageBand) and iWork (Keynote, Pages, Numbers) apps, along with Safari, Mail and a number of other apps and utilities
