Wait to buy macbook pro retina 15"

Does anyone know if the LG displays on retina are still used on the newest macbook pro's order via apple site? I feel that these issues along with the fact that they dont have the Haswell gen processors seems that spending 2k plus dollar or even 3k would be an unwise move by anyone. If anyone has ordered a newest macbook pro retina from apple please let me know.

I've noticed many improvements in the retina display. People say that brightness is lower, I say not. People say it looks pixelated, I say not. See these screenshots I took (bottom = retina).
And zoomed in even more...

The only 'noise maker on a retina MBP are the fans. The will speed up if there is a need to dissipate heat.
The MBP will become hot if CPU/GPU intensive applications are in use. That is expected and normal.

Need Suggestion on buying macbook pro retina display

No macbook pro retina is announced at WWDC. I want to buy one so I need suggestion, Should I wait or buy the existing one?

There will always be replacements coming for what you buy now. If you need it, buy it. I did and still can't believe how great it is.

Buying macbook pro retina in two weeks

I am considering to buy the macbook pro retina 15 inch with 16 gigs of ram in two weeks. I am just not sure if i should wait for the new line of macbook pro's to come out in fall or not. I know they have haswell processor's but as far as i am concerned they are giving one better batterylife but the speed is not improving so much. And i guess the gpu is going to get upgraded too but i dont know how important that will be?
I hope you guys can help me out with me choosing wisely (:
greetings

If you have a need for a MBP now, purchase it. Only Apple knows what specifications a new model will have and when they will be offered for sale. Anything you hear or read are pure guesses. If you can wait do so but you will not know for how long it will be.
If you cannot decide what to do, you may employ a decision making tool, such as a coin and toss it in the air.

Macbook pro without retina display heats up more.
The New retina models have the a-symetrical fans which allows quieter noise and runs cooler

Should I buy a Macbook Pro Retina 13" now?

Hello, I need to buy Macbook Pro retina 13" to school start. I have already bought a macbook pro retina because I got discount by my county, but I havent received it yet. So, I chose the macbook pro retina, but I know it will come a better Retina soon. Haswell. But is it worth the wait? Okay, there will be more battery life, better performance for the GPU and CPU, but I already have a very good gaming machine that I use every day. Macbook pro retina will just be a second machine, and the gaming machine will come first. So is it worth to wait for haswell, or should I just be happy with Macbook Pro Retina?
Thank you!

We have no knowledge of what any new model may have or when it will be available. Plus speculation is disallowed in these boards, so you will not find that kind of satisfaction here.
As for the incoming Mac you have already purchased, beware that if it is not a customized model you have 14 days upon receipt to return for refund. Since we do not know what your workflow and usage habits are, it is impossible to predict whether the Retina will make you happy on the long run.
Personally, I would never buy any of the current crop of Retinas. In my view, they are expensive and fragile toys and my needs are much better fulfilled by a properly configured and customized regular model. But I am an old curmudgeon with many years of IT experience, managing a datacenter with over 30,000 users.

Macbook pro retina 13" or Macbook pro retina 15"

Hi
I'm a senior in high school and going to be a freshman in college.
It's my first time to buy an apple product so I need some help with it.
Should I buy macbook pro retina 13" or macbook pro retina 15" ?
I will use the notebook for writing reports, doing projects, and web surfing.

Neither. Buy a Standard Macbook Pro and upgrade it yourself to a SSD and more RAM.
Other then the screen there is nothing in the Retina models that make it any better then the standard models if you install the same amount of RAM and a SSD. In fact In my honest opinion the retina models are not as good as the standard models. You can't ungrade it at all and it is very hard to repair it. If you do buy a Retina make sure you also budget the Applecare extended warranty into the cost. As without it and you have problems with it after the one year warranty runs out it will be very costly to have it repaired.

I am going to buy a macbook pro for grade 12, and I need to know wheather I should get a macbook pro or a macbook pro retina. If someone could tell me (in a very simple way) which one is,better for me and why, I would be ever so apprreciative.

Why do you need a expensive MacBook Pro?
Your attending high school and unless everyone else is rich also your likely going to be a target by the more poorer students for theft or damage to the machine.
You could keep it home, but if you need it for class then your exposed again.
Also at that age your not very careful yet, a MacBook Pro is a expensive and easily damaged machine.
Unless your made of money and so are others at your school, I would recommned a low profile, just does the job cheap Windows PC.
If it dies, gets lost, stolen or damaged because of your inexperince handling senstivie electronics then it's no big deal.
You can buy a Mac later on when your sure you have a need for it, currently there isn't much advantage of owning a Mac compared to a PC, they do just about the same things now, one just looks prettier than the other.
Since 95% of the world uses Windows PC's your going to have to install Windows on the Mac in order to keep your skills up there or be unemployed, so it's a extra headache and expense.
good luck

Is it possible to connect my 2008 black macbook, to my new 2014 macbook pro retina display screen to make a dual monitor. If this is possible what cables would I need to buy?

You can try using Screen Sharing in the Sharing preferences. Or try a third-party utility such as ScreenRecycler.

Call the online store and ask them! We are just users like yourself. Besides, you will get a much faster answer directly from the horses mouth and it will be correct!

Can i buy a macbook pro retina display in US with portuguese keyboard?

Can Apple or someone else tell me if is possible to buy in Apple Retail Store in U.S. a Macbook Pro retina Display with portuguese keyboard?

It's difficult to get one at a shop or Apple Online Store because build-to-order Macs aren't available at them unless they are very popular.
The only option you have is to call Apple (1-800-MY-APPLE) and see if you can order a MacBook Pro with a Portuguese keyboard. In case you can, this will take days because it has to be ordered and delivered to the USAFD

Can I buy a MacBook Pro Retina one month before I travell?

I will have a trip no NYC and I wanna buy a macbook pro retina display 25 dyas before my trip because i dont wanna exceed my credit card limit. Can the macbook pro stay 25 days at the Apple Store? Thank you!!!

I would not even ask a friend to *just hold* it for 25 days, as you have a 14 day grace period to return "for any reason" and that time should be spent using it to determine if there are issues.
You may also owe considerable "import duties" if you bring back a system purchased in the US. Your own country may want to take its 20+% (just guessing) import duties when you return home.

How good is macbook pro compared to 13" macbook pro retina and is the macbook pro has haswell processor and will I get further updates if I buy macbook pro without retina

.

will I get further updates if I buy macbook pro without retina
I do not know what you mean by that. Any currently produced Mac is likely to be supported for as long as every other Apple product that has ever been produced. Most Apple products are relegated to "vintage" status approximately six years after which they are discontinued by Apple, meaning that the non-Retina MBP is likely to be supported through 2020.
