Customers are pleased with the MacBook Pro's Retina display, ease of use, and lightweight design. Many appreciate its performance and long battery life, while some find the storage capacity limited and the price high. Positive feedback also highlights the size and sleek design. A few users noted the quiet operation and lack of excessive heat.
This MacBook is very easy to setup. It walks me through in just a few screen to get setup. I used the App Store and got the latest "Office like" applications for free. With the office apps, this gives me everything I need to do my work and for my personal usage.

This laptop is fantastic. It is lightning fast, super compact, light weight, and the screen is visually beautiful. I travel for work so it was important to have a light weight laptop that could fit easily in a backpack. Also, small enough that I could comfortably work with it on a airplane. Being that this laptop is virtually the same size and weight as the Air it fits my needs perfectly. I also have to edit and post photos I've taken, and with the retina display screen my pictures look amazing. Overall I love this laptop. My only complaint would be the price point. This is my first Apple laptop so it was a little tough for me to drop that kind of money on a computer. Having said that I am glad that I ended up choosing the Mac Book Pro w/ Retina vs The Air. I was going to originally choose the Air simply for the price point. However, once I was shown the differences between the new Pro and the Air it was an easy decision to spend the couple hundred dollars extra on the Pro.

I came in the store and was quickly helped and taken to the Macs after I told the sales person my desire to get a Mac Book Pro for my daughter for her high school graduation gift. We looked at my choices (I had done a lot of research online before coming in) and I decided on my purchase - a Mac Book Pro with a retina display. In check out, we discovered that my Best Buy credit account had gone out of date, but the sales person quickly - really quickly - reapplied online for me and got approval just as quickly. I was in and out of the store in no time with a great computer. My daughter was and remains delighted with her top-of-the line graduation gift, which is everything she had hoped for!
