ThereР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р Р†РІР‚С›РЎС›s the familiar Apple chime that starts the computer up, the bright Retina display shining information into your own retinas, and a speedy system bringing it all to life super quickly.Р В РІР‚СњР В РІР‚С›nd it does exactly that, because while the fourth-generation Intel processors from last year weР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р Р†РІР‚С›РЎС›re no slouch, the fifth-generation Р В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎв„ўBroadwellР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎС™ processors are just as strong, booting the system up quickly and providing a computer for you to use.

This is like the MacBook Air, the MacBook Pro 13, the iMac, and even that especially thin brand spankinР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р Р†РІР‚С›РЎС› new MacBook we saw earlier in the year, with another beautifully chiselled unibody piece of aluminium making up the shell of the computer filled with the right technical configuration and operating system combination to make a machine truly spectacular, a fact you realise when you switch the machine on and let the interface greet you for the first time. ThatР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р Р†РІР‚С›РЎС›s not something many computer companies can build, either, and as you can imagine, AppleР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р Р†РІР‚С›РЎС›s attention to excellence is evident in this 15 inch MacBook Pro as much as it has been with prior models. Need a desktop every where you go? No worries, because thatР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р Р†РІР‚С›РЎС›s what the 15 inch MacBook Pro is more or less designed to cater for, providing a big screen and big set of specs in a machine that barely hits two kilograms. The model in this review is the highest model out of the two available before configuration, and is equipped with a 2.5GHz Intel Core i7, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD, and both Intel Iris Pro and AMD Radeon R9 M370X auto-switching graphics.Р В РІР‚СњР вЂ™Р’В«ig laptops arenР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р Р†РІР‚С›РЎС›t as popular as they once were, but AppleР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р Р†РІР‚С›РЎС›s MacBook Pro still manages to draw attention due to the level of quality the company throws in.

Viewing the graphics, youР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р Р†РІР‚С›РЎС›ll find a 15.4 inch In-Plane Switching (IPS) screen, offering AppleР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р Р†РІР‚С›РЎС›s Р В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎв„ўRetinaР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎС™ concept in spades with a display resolution of 2880Р В РІР‚СљР Р†Р вЂљРІР‚Сњ1800 native, which in turn provides a pixel clarity of roughly 220 pixels per inch, not far from what is offered in the 13 inch MacBook Pro (227 ppi).Р В РІР‚СњР В РІР‚С› few ports are also offered on this machine, and youР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р Р†РІР‚С›РЎС›ll find two Thunderbolt 2.0 ports, two USB 3.0 ports, a single SDXC slot, one 3.5mm headphone jack, and a lone HDMI port, which appears to be consistent with the previous MacBook Pro 15 inch.Р В РІР‚СњР вЂ™Р’В¬onnections are also consistent, offering both Bluetooth 4.0 and 802.11ac WiFi, with the latter of these backwards compatible with existing wireless 802.11a/b/g/n standards, while multimedia is also catered through AppleР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р Р†РІР‚С›РЎС›s typical assortment of microphones (two of them on this body, found on the left side of the machine) and a FaceTime HD 720p camera above the display.Р В РІР‚СњР В РІР‚С› full-size backlit keyboard is also here, as is AppleР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р Р†РІР‚С›РЎС›s new style of trackpad, the Р В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎв„ўForce TrackpadР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎС™ reliant on vibrations that trick your fingers and brain into thinking a button is there.Р В РІР‚СњР В РІР‚С›ppleР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р Р†РІР‚С›РЎС›s MacBook Pro 15 inch with Retina comes with Mac OS X 10.10 Р В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎв„ўYosemiteР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎС™ out of the box. That option is only available in one of the models, the high-end model, with the base model not upgradeable to this option. Video options are indeed options in this laptop, providing either IntelР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р Р†РІР‚С›РЎС›s Iris Pro graphics standard - built-in graphics for those playing at home - or a choice of AMDР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р Р†РІР‚С›РЎС›s Radeon R8 M370X with 2GB graphics. This is paired with 16GB RAM which is the maximum, with either a 256GB or 512GB solid-state drive - no hard drives are found here - with this solid-state drive also configurable to a whopping 1TB, twice that of the 512GB drive.

Be aware, however, that this is pretty much professional territory, with a sense of professional pride extending to what Apple throws into this machine, making it gutsy and high-end simply because of what the company is using.Р В РІР‚СњР В РІР‚С›s such, youР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р Р†РІР‚С›РЎС›ll find IntelР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р Р†РІР‚С›РЎС›s quad-core processors here, with Core i7 chips from the fifth-generation, also known as Р В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎв„ўBroadwellР В Р вЂ Р В РІР‚С™Р РЋРЎС™, offered in either 2.2 or 2.5GHz versions stock, though configurable up to a 2.8GHz version.
