Lookup MacBook Pro MacBook Pro 13-inch

MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2012)

The highest-resolution notebook ever. And the second-highest.

In 2012 the Macbook had a major overhaul in design and performance with a new high resolution “Retina” display and added external ports for extra compatibility. This model was the first 13-inch laptop from Apple to introduce non upgradeable components with the RAM being permanently attached to the logic board inside. We also saw the introduction of an HDMI port on Macbooks for the first time following the release of the 15″ “Retina” model and high speed solid state drives debuting high speed storage against slow, outmoded mechanical hard disks.
