To use these displays at their native resolutions you’ll need to turn to a third-party utility such as EasyRes. Interestingly, the highest resolution setting on the 13-inch is 1680 by 1050 on the 15-inch, the highest available resolution setting is 1920 by 1280. The Best for Display setting is the default pixel-doubled resolution. If you want to change the resolution to fit more windows, images and documents on-screen, OS X’s Displays System Preferences allow you to choose between one of five available resolutions. Icons and user-interface elements are so sharp and clear that I sometimes find myself just admiring the contents of the Dock and menu bar. By default, both displays are set to pixel-doubled mode: 1280 by 800 for the 13-inch models, and 1440 by 900 on the 15-inch laptops.Īs mentioned in previous reviews, the Retina displays look great.

The 15-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display sports a 15.4-inch IPS LED screen with a 2880-by-1800 resolution. The 13-inch Retina MacBook Pro has a glossy 13.3-inch (diagonal) IPS screen with LED backlighting and a native resolution of 2560 by 1600 pixels. Processor upgrades and flash-storage upgrades (up to 1TB) are also available at the time of purchase. The 13-inch models all come standard with a healthy 8GB of RAM, while the 15-inch models come with a very generous 16GB configuring the 13-inch model with 16GB costs an additional $200. RAM is soldered to the motherboard, so if you think you might ever need more than the stock amount, it’s important to configure your MacBook Pro with that extra RAM at the time of purchase. If fact, you’ll need a special Pentalobe screwdriver just to get the back cover off. The Retina MacBook Pro isn’t built with upgradability in mind.
