Introducing Apple MacBook Pro 2016

MacBook Pro
It’s faster and more powerful than before, yet remarkably thinner and
lighter. It has the brightest, most colorful Mac notebook display ever.
And it introduces the Touch Bar — a Multi‐Touch enabled strip of glass
built into the keyboard for instant access to the tools you want, right
when you want them. The new MacBook Pro is built on
groundbreaking ideas. And it’s ready for yours.

MacBook Pro
A revolutionary new way to use
your Mac.
The Touch Bar replaces the function keys that have long occupied the top of your keyboard with something
much more versatile and capable. It changes automatically based on what you’re doing to show you relevant
tools you already know how to use — system controls like volume and brightness, interactive ways to adjust
or browse through content, intelligent typing features like emoji and predictive text, and more. And for the
first time, Touch ID is available on a Mac, enabling instant access to logins and fast, secure online purchases
with Apple Pay.

dynamic canvas that developers can use to add a new
dimension to existing and future apps.

The 15‐inch MacBook Pro features a powerful Radeon Pro discrete GPU in every
configuration, delivering up to 130 percent faster graphics performance than the previous
generation. Manufactured with a cutting‐edge 14 nm process, Radeon Pro graphics deliver
up to 2.5x more computing power per watt. And with 64MB of embedded DRAM, the 13‐
inch model provides up to 103 percent faster integrated graphics than the previous
generation. That means more time for what matters most — creating amazing work.

Faster flash storage.
Snap to everything.
MacBook Pro includes a solid‐state drive that’s
even faster than the previous generation, with
sequential read speeds up to 3.1GB/s. The 15‐
inch model is the first available with a 2TB
SSD — enough space to take even your biggest
projects with you, without having to take an
external drive. And its memory is faster than
ever before. It all works together to help you
boot up, launch multiple apps, or import huge
files in a flash.
Processors that provide
incredible power. And use
incredibly little.
With sixth‐generation Intel Core processors,
MacBook Pro delivers amazing performance —
even when powering through the most pro‐
level processing jobs, like rendering 3D models
and encoding video. At the same time, it can
conserve energy when taking on lighter tasks,
like browsing the web and checking email.

MacBook Pro
The coolest thing you’ll never see.
The thinner the notebook, the less space for cooling. So MacBook
Pro incorporates innovations throughout the system that eliminate
heat more efficiently than the previous generation — increasing
airflow during intensive tasks like editing video, playing graphics‐
heavy games, and transferring huge files.

MacBook Pro
On the 15‐inch MacBook Pro, an
innovative split blade design
allows for more blades and
delivers increased airflow. The
asymmetrical layout of the fan
blades reduces noise.

MacBook Pro
Retina Display
The brightest, most colorful
Mac notebook display ever.
The new display in the MacBook Pro is the best ever in a Mac notebook. It features brighter LED
backlighting and an increased contrast ratio, delivering deeper blacks and brighter whites. Its
larger pixel aperture and variable refresh rate make it more power efficient than previous
generations. And it’s the first Mac notebook to support wide color, for even more vibrant greens
and reds. This ensures truer‐to‐life pictures with realistically vivid details, essential for graphic
design, color grading, and editing.

The speakers have been totally redesigned to provide as much as twice the
dynamic range and up to 58 percent more volume, with two and a half times
louder bass for maximum boom. And they’re connected directly to system
power, enabling up to three times more peak power. So they make MacBook
Pro the perfect choice for mixing a track on the fly, editing video on location,
or enjoying a movie on the go.

Thunderbolt 3
The most powerful
and versatile port ever.
Thunderbolt 3 combines ultra‐high bandwidth with the ultra‐versatility of the USB‐C industry
standard to create one revved‐up universal port. It integrates data transfer, charging, and video
output in a single connector, delivering up to 40 Gbps of throughput for twice the bandwidth of
Thunderbolt 2. And both sizes of MacBook Pro are available with four ports, so you can do all
that from either side. Existing devices are easily connected with a cable or adapter. And
Thunderbolt 3 is reversible, so no matter how you plug in, it’s always right side up.

Thunderbolt 3 delivers the fastest
connection to any dock, display, or device.
You can also daisy‐chain up to six
Thunderbolt devices through a single port
without needing a hub or a switch. So
connecting a storage device to your
computer, and then a display to your
storage device, works as it’s meant to —
with powerful throughput.

deliver power in both directions. So a port
can charge a device or, alternatively, be
charged by one. And it’s capable of
delivering up to 100 watts of power, so a
single cable can be used to connect to a
dock or display and charge your MacBook
Pro simultaneously.

macOS
It’s why there’s
nothing else like a Mac.
macOS is the operating system that powers every Mac. It’s engineered to take full advantage of
the hardware and designed to be as easy to use as it is beautiful to look at. macOS includes an
amazing collection of apps you’ll use — and love — every day. It also features iCloud and other
innovative ways for your Mac, iOS devices, and Apple Watch to work together.

macOS
Easy to Use
When it’s simple
to do everything,
you can do anything.
On a Mac, everything is designed to work
just the way you expect it to — from
operating it with simple, intuitive gestures
to asking Siri to find a file to having your
apps automatically update themselves.
Whatever you set out to do on a Mac,
there’s much less to learn and that much
more to accomplish.

macOS
Photos Finder Spotlight Notifications
Siri helps you get things done just by using your voice. It also helps you get
more things done at the same time. So you can finish your document while
asking Siri to tell your coworker that it’s on the way. Looking for the
presentation you worked on last week? Just ask Siri.

macOS
The Finder lets you easily browse and organize the files on your Mac and the
ones stored in iCloud Drive.

macOS
Spotlight helps you quickly and effortlessly find what you want, like
documents on your Mac or movie showtimes. Just type a few keystrokes in
the Spotlight search box and autocomplete immediately shows you relevant
results.

macOS
A simple two‐finger swipe brings up Notification Center — the same one you
use on iPhone — where you can see all the alerts that have come in recently.
It’s also where you’ll find your Today view, which you can customize with
helpful widgets or handy information pinned from Siri searches.

macOS
Continuity
All your devices.
One seamless experience.
Your Mac works with your other Apple
devices in ways no other computer can. If
you get a call on your iPhone, you can take
it on your Mac. And you can copy images,
video, and text from your iPhone, then
paste to your nearby Mac — or vice versa.
You can even unlock your Mac just by
walking up to it wearing your Apple Watch.

macOS
Apple Pay.
Now you can shop even more safely and simply in Safari on your Mac. Look
for Apple Pay on your favorite sites, then complete your purchase with
Touch ID on your iPhone or with your Apple Watch. No need to log in to
the website or enter your credit card info. Talk about instant gratification.

macOS
Universal Clipboard.
Copy images, video, or text from an app on your iPhone.
Then paste into another app on your nearby Mac. And of
course, it works the other way around too — so you can
browse a recipe on your Mac and paste the ingredients
right to the grocery list on your iPhone.
Auto Unlock.
Automatically log in to your Mac when you’re wearing
your Apple Watch. No password typing required.

macOS
Calls and Messages.
Make and receive phone calls on your iPhone — without
picking up your iPhone. When a call comes in, just click
Accept on your Mac. When you want to make a call on
your Mac, just click the number. Your Mac is a whiz with
messages, too. All the texts and iMessages that appear
on your iPhone also appear on your Mac.
Handoff.
When your Mac and iOS devices are near each other,
they can automatically pass whatever you’re doing from
one device to another. So you can start writing an email
on a Mac and take it with you to your meeting
on your iPhone.

macOS
AirDrop.
With just a few clicks on your Mac, you can use AirDrop
to quickly transfer any file from any folder and send it to
a nearby Mac or iOS device, and vice versa. Even when
there’s no Wi‐Fi network available.
Instant Hotspot.
No Wi‐Fi? No problem. With Instant Hotspot, your Mac
can remotely activate the Personal Hotspot on your
iPhone when they’re near each other.

macOS
Built‐in Apps
Apps as powerful and
Elegant as your Mac.
Because they’re designed
for it.
With every Mac, you get a collection of powerful
apps. They’re the same apps you use on your iPhone
or iPad, so they’ll feel instantly familiar. They all
work with iCloud, so your schedule, contacts, and
notes are always up to date everywhere. And
because they’re native apps — not web apps in a
browser — they take full advantage of the power of
your Mac to deliver the fastest possible performance
and more robust features.

macOS
Creativity.
Organize, edit, and share a lifetime’s worth of photos and videos, and
rediscover your favorite memories. Transform home videos into
unforgettable movies or quickly share clips with your favorite people. And
easily create music like the pros with a virtual session drummer perfectly
suited to your style.
Photos iMovie GarageBand

macOS
Productivity.
Create beautiful documents with beautiful simplicity. Visualize your data
precisely and persuasively in spreadsheets with images, text, and shapes.
And make stage‐worthy presentations using powerful graphics tools and
dazzling cinematic effects to bring your ideas to life.
Pages Numbers Keynote

macOS
Communication.
Easily manage all of your email accounts in one simple, powerful app that
works with email services like iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, AOL, and Microsoft
Exchange. Send unlimited messages to anyone on any Apple device, using
the same Messages app on your Mac as you do on your iPhone. And make
unlimited high‐quality video and audio calls right from your Mac with
FaceTime.
Mail Messages FaceTime

macOS
Organization.
Keep your iCloud, Google, and Exchange calendars in one place, create
separate calendars for home, work, and school, and view them all or just
the ones you want. Keep all your contact info up to date on all your devices,
and automatically import numbers, addresses, and photos from Facebook,
LinkedIn, Google, and even Microsoft Exchange. And keep track of little
and big things with notes that can include links, photos, map locations, and
more.
Calendar Contacts Notes

macOS
Internet.
Surf the web on a fast, energy‐efficient browser with built‐in privacy
features that keep you in control of your information. Map out new
destinations from your desktop, with gorgeous 3D city views like Flyover,
point‐to‐point directions, and comprehensive transit directions. And with
Spotlight, instantly search your entire Mac or get results from the Internet
in just a few keystrokes.
Safari Maps Spotlight

macOS
Media.
Find the latest apps and extensions for your Mac, right on your Mac. Enjoy
the music, movies, and TV shows you already have on your beautiful Retina
display, or discover soon‐to‐be favorites. And take advantage of the world‐
class bookstore built right into your Mac, where you can peruse the latest
titles from your desktop.
iTunes App Store iBooks

macOS
iCloud
All your stuff. On your
Mac, and everywhere
Else you want it.
Automatically.
Every Apple app uses iCloud — it’s the magic behind
the seamless experience you have with all your
Apple devices. So you always have your photos,
videos, documents, email, notes, contacts, calendars
and more on whatever device you’re using. And any
file you create is not only available to you anywhere,
it’s also safely backed up in the cloud. And with
iCloud Drive, you can access files from your Mac
desktop and Documents folder on any iOS device.
It’s all done automatically. Just like that.

macOS
Privacy and Security
We believe your data
belongs to you. Period.
Everything you do with your Mac is protected by
strong privacy and security features. That’s because
we build data security into everything we make,
right from the start.

macOS
Privacy.
You trust our products with your most personal
information, and we believe very strongly that you
should be in complete control of it. That’s why we
respect your privacy and protect it with strong
encryption and strict policies that govern how all data
is handled.
Security.
macOS is engineered with advanced technologies that
are constantly working together to keep your Mac and
the information on it safe. Gatekeeper makes it safer to
download and install apps from the web. You can further
safeguard your data using powerful built‐in encryption.

macOS
Compatibility
Need to work with
Windows? Mac does
that, too.
Windows? Mac does that, too.
With macOS, it’s easy to transfer your files, photos,
and other data from a Windows PC to your Mac.
Work with popular file types such as JPEG, MP3, and
PDF, as well as Microsoft Word, Excel, and
PowerPoint documents. And, of course, you can run
Microsoft Office natively on a Mac. If you want, you
can even run Windows on your Mac.

macOS
Accessibility
We make sure that
everyone is able to
use a Mac.
macOS comes standard with a wide range of
assistive technologies that help people with
disabilities experience what the Mac has to offer,
providing many features you won’t find in other
operating systems. These include VoiceOver,
FaceTime,8 Switch Control, and text to speech, all
designed to help anyone get more out of Mac.
