Eadicicco notes that the MacBook’s 2,304×1,440 resolution screen is sharp and colorful, but that doesn’t set it apart from its competitors, since most high-end laptops are now equipped with extremely high-resolution screens.
The MacBook is now 13.1 mm “thin” as Apple says, 0.9 kg “light”, with a 12 ” 2304 x 1440 Retina Display and longer battery life of 10 hrs.
Apple announced last week that it will release an upgrade of its compact laptop MacBook. They also show how the USB Type-C connector cable can be used to both provide power to the laptop’s batteries and deliver access to the actual computer for accessories.
As per reports, the MacBook Pro 2016 will be unveiled at the World Wide Developers Conference (WWDC) in June.
The new MacBook went on sale Tuesday on Apple’s online store – early in the day, however, the purchase page was inaccessible – and was to hit its retail chain and some authorized resellers on Wednesday. Meanwhile, Apple has already started making efforts to clear up the existing MacBook Air stocks to make way for the new 2016 MacBook Pro models, which is evident from the discounted prices of the 11-inch and 13-inch Air models on Best Buy and B&H Photo.
