The 13.3" IPS Retina display features a WQXGA 2560 x 1600 screen resolution with a 227 ppi pixel density. It has LED backlighting with a maximum brightness of 500 nits, and it includes support for the P3 wide color gamut. Integrated Intel Iris Graphics 640 delivers a sharp, clear picture, and you'll also be able to output video to an external display using the system's Thunderbolt 3 ports, which feature native DisplayPort output. One Thunderbolt 3 port can support one multi-panel 5K display at resolutions up to 5120 x 2880 at 60 Hz, or dual 4K displays at resolutions up to 4096 x 2304 at 60 Hz, each of which are able to support over a billion colors. For long-term storage of your files, this MacBook Pro is equipped with a 128GB PCIe SSD, with sequential read speeds up to 3.1 GB/s and sequential write speeds up to 2.1 GB/s. If you want to add external peripherals, dual Thunderbolt 3 ports support bi-directional transfer speeds of up to 40 Gb/s, while also supporting 10 Gb/s USB 3.1 and device charging. 802.11ac dual-band Wi-Fi is built-in for wireless networking, and Bluetooth 4.2 technology will also allow you to connect additional compatible peripherals. Other integrated features include a 720p webcam, dual microphones, stereo speakers, a 78-key backlit keyboard with 12 function keys and four arrow keys, an ambient light sensor, and a larger Force Touch trackpad.

Q: QuestionDOES THIS ITEM HAVE TOUCHBAR?(3 answers)
A: AnswerNo. Look up the model MPXQ2LL/A on Apple website and it does not state a touch bar is a feature. Nor do any of the picture show one. Best is misleading customers with the incorrect picture showing a touch bar. Probably a sales tactic. Do not be fooled. Do your research before you buy.Answered by Anonymous

gets hot
I was skeptical when going to purchase this computer. It came in weird but protective packaging. It was dead when I received it. At first the computer was really good I was impressed but now it keeps getting hot even with minimal use and makes a fanning sound and lets out a strange oder.

Not bad at all for the price
As a high school junior, this Macbook gets the job done perfectly for me. However, some issues I have with it include losing its charge and heating up quickly, causing it to make noises. But, for the price, I cannot complain. P.S. Do not let the photo fool you. There is no touch bar, unfortunately.
