Numerous rumors about the imminent update Macbook Pro 13 "confirmed. Now «youngest» MBP comes with Retina-display. The laptop has the same features as rMBP 15 "(our review): Lighter weight, thinner body, giving up CD / DVD-drive.
But the main thing, of course - is the display. Screen size - 13.3 ", its resolution - 2560 x 1600. Four times as many pixels than before.
The display is made on the basis of IPS-matrix (finally!). He does not matte, but the reflection of the level reduced by 75%. Moreover, almost one-third increased the contrast, improved brightness. Viewing Angle - 178 degrees.
The machine is equipped with two ports of the Thunderbolt, two connectors USB 3.0, HDMI port, a slot for SD-cards. Power adapter - MagSafe 2.
As is the case with rMBP 15 ", the 13-inch model is equipped with two speakers, two microphones, a camera FaceTime HD.
We still have to test the new Macbook Pro at work, but one thing is already alarming: this laptop does not have a discrete graphics card. It is unclear how to work comfortably in the MBP 13 with applications such as Photoshop.
The price of the new rMBP 13 "starts at $ 1699 (data for the United States, Russia is the cost is much higher). For this amount the buyer receives the car with a dual-core Intel Core i5 2.5GHz, 128 GB of flash memory, 8 GB of RAM and a video card Intel HD Graphics 4000. The battery life remains the same: the next 7 hours to recharge.
The older model rMBP 13 "will cost in 2000 dollars. The main difference - higher volume of flash memory: 256 GB instead of 128 GB. The rest of the specifications remain unchanged (even the same processor).
