The refreshed MacBook Pro 13 with Retina is in many ways the same system we saw in 2012. It looks the same, weighs (almost) the same, and has the same display. Yet it feels different. Back in 2012, the Pro 13 was one of the most portable systems around...

You can't go wrong if you're ready to take a bite into Apple, but it's pretty expensive. The 13-inch MacBook Pro is Apple's answer for users who are looking for a little more power and functionality but don't want to forfeit the advantages of a laptop...

In last year's line-up, moving from entry to middle models of the 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display meant gaining more memory and more storage. With this year's range, it will cost you £200 just to add another ‘128 GB' (actually a change from 121 GB...
Force Touch trackpad is magic. Improved performance and battery life.
