But the big advantage here is that it makes it possible to use pressure to determine the speed of scrubbing when navigating through video and audio content. In OS X, this means you can do things like look up addresses in Maps on websites in Safari, or check dictionary definitions of words, or even preview links to other pages on the web.įorce Touch is also open to developers, which means you can do things like add pressure sensitive drawing capabilities to Photoshop using only the trackpad and a standard stylus. Apple’s Force Touch tech allows for new types of input, based on how hard you press with your finger. The new 15-inch rMBP has some powers that its predecessor didn’t, chief among which in terms of immediately apparent differences is the addition of the Force Touch trackpad.

But when you install yourself at a desk wherever you happen to land, you’ll value the extra screen space, especially if you work in a creative field or coding capacity. This computer remains my favorite road warrior in terms of actually getting stuff done the larger footprint isn’t optimal for things like working on an airplane, where larger passengers like me, combined with people who recline their seats (ban reclining seats by the way) can equal preciously little room for opening the lid of a larger laptop. other models are easy pills to swallow for people who need those features, however.

The trade-offs of size and weight for exceptional display quality, plus ample screen real estate, as well as long-lasting battery life and improved graphical power vs.

When it first debuted, it was a marvel of engineering in terms of Apple’s ability to fit a machine with professional caliber specs into a package that is remarkably portable three years later, the industrial design of the product is emblematic of craft, if somewhat easier to take for granted since it’s been around for some time.Īs Apple’s largest current laptop, the 15-inch Retina MBP isn’t going to work for everyone – it’s also the heaviest at just under four and a half pounds. However, I will never again own a computing device that will work as hard, as reliably, for such a long time as my trusty mid 2012 15" MBP.The Retina MacBook Pro is, at this stage, a true design classic. The new M series processors are a harbinger that the time for such a change is approaching sooner than later. I am aware that eventually, I will have to break down and buy a new MBP. While the new MBPs are lighter and have longer battery life, they hold little performance edge over this machine in my day to day use of the machine as INTEL has done little to really advance processors in a meaningful way over the years since this machine was designed. This machine is fast, reliable and delight to use. The logic board nor the display on this machine have ever faltered.

I upgraded the machine to Big Sur using a popular patching program along with an upgrade to the latest Broadcom WiFi/BT card (thanks to an enterprising young man) and am running 11.2 currently with no issues outside the ones that are plaguing even the newest MBPs.
Both fans have been replaced and most recently I replaced the right side speakers as the woofer section had started to rattle. I have replaced the keyboard only ONCE in that entire time. The 1TB HDD is still used as an in-machine Time Machine drive for Big Sur. I upgraded to 1TB SSD and a 1TB HDD and moved to APFS once Catalina came along using the HDD as an in-machine daily clone backup drive (used SuperDuper until Big Sur negated the ability to easily create a bootable clone). I upgraded the SSD to a larger one and rolled the SSD and HDD into a FUSION drive using the tools apple made available to anyone comfortable with the command line, which I ran with zero issues for several years. I swapped out the super drive (CD/DVD burner) for an SSD (initially a relatively small one to just hold the OS). I upgraded the HDD several times (started life as a 256MB HDD).

This machine has a full compliment of ports with NO dongles needed! I upgraded the ram over time to its max 16GB. This machine was the last of the totally user repairable notebooks Apple made. Without question, a fine example of solid engineering. My daughter gave me this machine as a christmas present in late 2012.
I am among those still using a mid 2012 non-retina 15" MBP.
