Our objective tests are not compatible with OS X, unfortunately, so we used test slides from the Lagom LCD website to get a sense for the Pro’s display quality. The effect is most noticeable when viewing high-contrast text, which looks smooth even when rendering very small font. The result is an outlandishly sharp screen that looks more like a sheet of glass with a printed image behind it rather than a computer monitor. Apple claims the display’s pixels are too small to be seen at a normal viewing distance – and they’re right. The Retina display may not be the Pro’s newest feature, but it’s still the most noticeable.

OS X’s extensive support for multi-touch gestures remains a point of differentiation that Windows notebooks can’t match and works as well as ever on the latest version of the Pro. Nevertheless, it remains a smooth experience.
The touchpad, which measures 4.125 x 3 inches, no longer feels large relative to the competition, as it did when the Pro debuted in 2006. There is some minor light leak around all of the keys, but adjusting the brightness usually makes this a non-issue. This makes it possible to find the proper brightness in any lighting condition.

Manual control is also available, however, and there’s a total of ten brightness settings. Tactile feel is good, too, as keys bottom out firmly with a soft but audible click.īacklighting is standard and activates automatically when the webcam senses a low-light environment. Despite its thin profile, the keyboard remains excellent, with plenty of key travel and a spacious, well defined layout. Preserving keyboard quality while reducing a laptop’s size is not easy, but you wouldn’t know that when using the latest edition of the MacBook Pro. All of these ports are located near the rear of the notebook’s right and left flank, which means connected devices are less likely to be in the user’s way.
The latest Pro has plenty of connectivity to go around, with two USB 3.0 ports, two Thunderbolt 2 ports, HDMI, a combo headphone/microphone jack and a card reader. Port selection is an area where Apple has improved over the years. Those on the bottom are easily noticed, but they’re rarely in sight because, well, they’re on the bottom. Though panel gaps exist, they’re virtually invisible. The chassis feels rock-solid and there’s no hint of flex, even along the display. Regardless of what you think of its looks, there’s no denying that the Pro is a well built machine.
