#Macbook pro 13 retina 2015 benchmarks pro#

In the Black Magic Disk Speed Test, the 13-inch Retina MacBook Pro posted an average write speed of 1156.1 MBps and an average read speed of 1299.9 MBps. ItвЂ™s not the 40 percent that Apple touts, but AppleвЂ™s testing was done with a different benchmark that includes three video games. The graphics improvement is much more impressive: The new 13-inch Retina MacBook Pro had a 29 percent increase over last yearвЂ™s models in the Cinebench OpenGL tests. WeвЂ™ll have a review of those laptops coming soon.) (On a side note, Apple updated the 15-inch Retina MacBook Pro during this review process. The fully loaded model ($1799 at the Apple Store) has a 2.9GHz Core i5 processor with Turbo Boost support up to 3.3GHz, and 512GB of flash storage. The middle-tier model ($1499 at the Apple Store) has the same processor as the $1299 version, but it has 256GB of flash storage.

The base laptop ($1299 at the Apple Store) has a dual-core 2.7GHz Core i5 processor, with Turbo Boost support up to 3.1GHz, 3MB of shared е…ѓ cache, and 128GB of flash storage. Apple replaced the Intel Haswell processors in the 13-inch Retina MacBook Pro with new Broadwell processors. What else is new with the 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display I donвЂ™t see myself ditching the mouse soon, but I could be using it less and less. But Force Click has me using the trackpad more often because itвЂ™s so useful. I prefer a mouse because my fingers fumble when I have to do things like click and drag to select part of an image or a section of text. IвЂ™ve always used the trackpad as a last resort. Force Click has different functions it can be used for Quick Look in the Finder Force Click on a date and a pop-up appear to add an event to Calendar it can activate Look Up it shows a preview when you Force Click a web link and much more. You can press to click like you normally would, but you can also perform a Force Click by pressing a little harder youвЂ™ll feel a second, more pronounced click. The Force Touch trackpad has sensors to detect how hard youвЂ™re pressing. In System Preferences > trackpad, you can adjust the amount of pressure needed to perform a click.

For longtime MacBook users, you can notice a difference when the new 13-inch Retina MacBook Pro is off: You can still click a trackpad on an older MacBook thatвЂ™s powered off, but tap on the Force Touch trackpad and it feels dead, like youвЂ™re pressing against the laptop case itself. When you press it, the 13-inch Retina MacBook ProвЂ™s Force Touch trackpad feels like it clicks, but the click you actually feel is haptic-technology is used to create a sensation of clicking.
