Will there be a 13 inch Macbook pro with Retina Display? I need a new laptop

I will need to buy a new laptop for school and since they have a new model for the 15 inch laptop, I was wondering whether theywil update the 13 inch model as well.

I lament it is against the TOS on this site to speculate on unannounced Apple products. Not only could it be a wonderful market litmus test for Apple to utilize (for free) but what better online board exists to let the company we pay a premium to be a part of know what we as the consumers would like to see next?

    Apple does make these, but they are not sold everywhere.  Where are you located? 
    Nobody in these forums represents Apple or any store, so to find out whether you can buy a particular product you will need to contact stores directly yourself.  In the US you can sometimes get unusual keyboards by talking to an apple retail store and asking for a special order.

  • 15 inch Macbook pro w/o retina display or 13 inch Macbook pro with retina display?

    Want to get a macbook for university. Going to be used primarily for work and casual use. Have a 32inch full hd tv to connect up to for watching movies etc, which is the better choice?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    I recommend a non-Retina MacBook Pro unless you need the Retina display. MacBooks Pro with Retina display are very limited and you can't replace anything if you don't want to void warranty. Also, repairs are more expensive, so purchase AppleCare for your MacBook Pro with Retina display.
    Go for the 15-inch MacBook Pro if you need good GPU performance. The 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display has got an Intel HD Graphics 4000 as the graphic card, and it's not supported in Adobe apps, for example. Also, apps that require GPU performance won't work properly.
    If you are not going to do any heavy task, the 13-inch MacBook Pro should work

  • Possible to install a new SSD to a 13-inch macbook pro with retina display

    I just bought a 13-inch macbook pro with retina display last week from apple. I want to make this macbook a protable workstation, so I upgraded the RAM to 16G. I also purchased an Samsung 1T SSD 840 EVO, which is suggested from most of the web, but when I took my laptop apart, the macbook is using a different SSD call PICe SSD, which is much smaller than a normal SSD.
    Not sure if anyone has encountered the same issue? Is it possible to upgraded the SSD in this case or have to stuck with it?
    Thanks

    stevenwang480,
    your 840 EVO can’t be installed in place of your PCIe SSD. In theory, you could upgrade your MacBook Pro’s PCIe SSD with another PCIe SSD, but the availability of third-party PCIe SSDs is nearly (if not actually) zero at this time. In the interim, you could put your 840 EVO into an external enclosure.

  • Can you use the 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display straight out of the box, or do you have to charge it first?

    Can you use the 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display straight out of the box, or do you have to charge it up fully before you can use it. I do not want to damage the laptop by misusing the battery.

    Attach the charger and start charging the battery to 100%.  The good news is that after you have connected the charger, you may start using the MBP as well.
    Ciao.

  • What is best non-apple display for 15 inch macbook pro with retina display?

    I am looking for a good and reasonably priced monitor to use with my MBP retina.  I prefer one that rotates 90 degrees for portrait viewing. Any suggestions?
    What adapter is needed to get good quality?  Is the dual link adapter worth $100?  Is it very much clearer than DVI?  How does the HDMI connection compare?  I've heard that HDMI only works as an external display in clamshell mode (computer closed).  Does HDMI transmit sound and video or would I need two cords?
    Thanks for any help!

    The dual-link adapter is needed only for resolutions over 1920 x 1200.  It won't improve the picture of lower resolution displays.
    HDMI carries audio and video (up tp 1920 x 1200).
    DVI (single or dual-link) is video only.
    Mini DisplayPort (or DisplayPort with an adapter cable) is audio and video (up to 2560 x 1600).
    All will give the same picture quality.

  • I have a Macbook pro with Retina Display, and need to get bootcamp. Which one should I get so I can install Windows 7?

    I have to have windows so I can use CAD and photoshop for my classes. Any suggestions?

    Boot Camp Assistant is in your Utilities folder. You will have to purchase Windows somewhere. Preferred would be 64-bit Windows 7.
    Windows on Intel Macs
    There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
         1. Install the Apple Boot Camp software.  Purchase Windows
             XP w/Service Pak2, Vista, or Windows 7.  For Boot Camp
             4.0 and above you can only use Windows 7 or later. Follow
             instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on
             installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and
             installing Windows.  Boot Camp enables you to boot the
             computer into OS X or Windows.
         2. Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business,
             Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  Parallels is software
             virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently
             with OS X.
         3. VM Fusion and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate,
             or Windows 7.  VM Fusion is software virtualization that
             enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
         4. CrossOver which enables running many Windows
             applications without having to install Windows.  The
             Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
         5. VirtualBox is an Open Source freeware virtual machine such
             as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris.
             It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM
             Fusion.
    Note that VirtualBox, Parallels, and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc.  There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization.  The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or Snow Leopard. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
    You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

  • Screen burn-in/ghosting on MacBook Pro with Retina Display

    I have had my 15 inch MacBook Pro with retina display for a little over a year now I and I have started to notice that when I am on a mostly white webpage for a few minutes, and then switch to a darker page, there is an obvious screen burn-in/ghosting.  Is this something that can be fixed?  It's not accidentaly damage, it's a manufacturing problem.
    My warranty recently expired.  Will I have to pay for repair costs even though this is Apple's fault and not mine? If so, how much could I expect to pay? Is there any way to extend my warranty? How much does that cost?

    Just got my second MBPR 13, and it cames again with the not welcome and clear "feature" of IR
    When I try to check for the display model with he command
    ioreg -lw0 | grep "EDID" | sed "/[^<]*</s///" | xxd -p -r | strings -6
    I got this output
    @.`0 6
    Color LCD
    Later I checked it in the colorSync utility
    Manufacturer: 00000610
    Model: 0000A020
    Manufacture Date:CD238700
    Not sure if its Samsung or LG, but honestly I dont care, I just want a not faulty display in my new expensive laptop.
    Now Im thinking to return it again and Im really paste after waiting for almost a month to receive this second and also defective laptop (I bought it in the online store, 1TB, 16RAM, I7).
    Should I return it again? Im thinking that even if the 14 days expires, since I have the waranty,they fix it anytime within the 3 years apple care waranty.
    Should I play the lotery?

  • Transfer iWork '09 to new MacBook Pro with Retina Display?

    I want to transfer Pages, Keynote, and Numbers from my old MacBook Pro running OS 10.8.2, to a new 13 inch MacBook Pro with Retina Display which is also running on 10.8.2. The problem is, I got iWork from the disc and it's already maxed out on it's uses. So... I tried to transfer from a Time Machine backup, but when I went to Migration Assistant, it didn't read My Passport for Mac, even though my computer read it on Finder. Why isn't that working? Also, I know I would have to transfer the Applications folder, but will there be duplicates, like 2 iPhotos or 2 iTunes? Lastly... is there anyway to just transfer iWork? I already tried Aiddropping and just dragging it from a Time Machine backup into my applications folder, but it says that I'm not authorized, or something like that.
    Thanks!

    I'm sure if you go to the Apple Store and explain that you're no longer using iwork on your old Macbook (are you?) they'll give you a copy of iWork. If you are using iWork on your old macbook pro, then explain that if you had have bought them on the app store, you'd be able to use more copies. Hopefully an employee will sort it out!

  • Reason for blurring of text in MacBook Pro with retina display?

    I was in an Apple store recently and examined a 15-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display.
    I noticed that when I expanded the size of the text (using the touchpad) on the Apple web page on the screen that there was a brief blur in the appearance of the text before the text looked sharp again at the larger size.
    I asked an Apple person at the store why this occurred. He claimed that the brief blurring of the text that I saw when I expanded its size was due to my eyes adjusting to the rapid change in text size.
    The answer appeared ridiculous to me. I have a 17-inch MacBook Pro about 5 years old as well as an iPad 2 and iPad mini. On none of these machines have I seen the temporary blurring of the text appearance when increasing its size.
    Is there an inherent problem with retina displays that causes this problem?
    Thanks for your help

    Nah, it was due to the image zoom being processed off the server for the Apple website and the likely clogged connection wifi speeds off the local router in that specific Apple store.
    most websites are not designed for retina level viewing either
    Ive done zoom in on a Retina here at the house with 30MB down speeds and never had a blurring unless it was coming off a jammed up server from a specific website that was slow.
