“Apple’s 15-inch Retina MacBook Pro has come a long way since the first Retina models were unveiled in 2012,” Stephen Silver writes for AppleInsider.
“While the Retina Display made its overall debut on the iPhone 4 in 2010, it made its first appearance on a MacBook with the Retina MacBook Pro line that was introduced in 2012,” Silver writes. “The 2012 version offered 2880-by-1800 resolution at 220 pixels per inch, along with around 300 nits brightness. The new version starts at 2880-by-1800 native resolution at 220 pixels per inch and 500 nits brightness. The new version, meanwhile, offers TrueTone technology, which was not available in any previous model.”
