well hey guys this new on with the verge I'm here with the new 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display it looks very much like the previous MacBook Pro only it is far far thinner because it omits the optical drive it's got some new ports here it's it's got the new Mac safe port it's got two Thunderbolt ports USB 3 on the other side it's got an HDMI port obviously SD card slot and another USB 3 obviously the the big change here is the Retina display this has an effective resolution of 1280 by 800 but because it's pixel doubled you can't see the pixels it looks amazing you can also run it at 1680 by 1050 which is a resolution of the old 15-inch MacBook Pro which is great so this has a lot of potential for pro users if you have a 15-inch MacBook Pro there's you have every reason to look at this and particularly important is this thing seems to perform really really well so we put together kind of an insane test here I've got GarageBand open I've got a 1080p Iron Man 3 trailer and I've got aperture with a 21 megapixel raw file open this is the CPU monitor you can see all four cores are kind of barely doing anything I'm gonna start Ironman I'm gonna start GarageBand this is a cacophony of sound and I'm going to start scrolling around in aperture let's get iron man open here and you can see everything is just kind of working pretty well and the CPU is only about at half so although it has integrated graphics until HD 4000 graphics and it's pushing this ultra high resolution screen performance seems to be actually really great erasing kind of a big worry people had about those graphics powering this display so that is the 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display that's a great product if you're like me and you have a 15-inch MacBook Pro you have a whole new reason to want a smaller computer
