> It’s got solid battery life for its class, it’s got all of the inputs most people will ever use, and it’s got powerful guts which just got stronger courtesy of Apple’s February 2013 update. Of course, there are quite a few laptops out there which have these features. But what those laptops don’t have is the superlative high-resolution display which the MacBook Pro with Retina Display has, and which will change your view of how good laptop displays can be forever. Coupled with Apple’s trademark build quality, this makes this model top of the class.
