2016 MacBook Pro 13" 2.9GHz Dual-Core i5 256GB with Touch Bar (MLH12LL/A)

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.

Touch Bar and Touch ID
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.

Photos - Select a photo from your library, rotate images, and add a filter.
Final Cut Pro - Navigate through your project with an interactive display of your entire timeline.
Mail - Pick from your favorite emoji to add the perfect feeling to any email. Or type a message faster with predictive text.
Safari - Breeze through your open Safari tabs or touch a Favorite to view a saved site.
Keynote - Adjust the color of text and move through thumbnails in fullscreen.
Customization - In some apps, you can customize the Touch Bar with the commands that work best for you.

The Ultimate Tool of Every Trade
The new MacBook Pro elevates the notebook to a whole new level of performance and portability. Wherever your ideas take you, you’ll get there faster than ever with cutting-edge graphics, high-performance processors, state-of-the-art storage, and more. 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. The new MacBook Pro packs more performance into a thinner design, yet still provides all-day battery life — up to 10 hours for the 13-inch model and 10 hours for the 15-inch model. So you’re free to keep watching, gaming, and editing from wherever you are.

Best Retina 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.

Incredible Audio
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.

Keyboard and Trackpad
Interacting with the new MacBook Pro is a better experience all around. The keyboard has been redesigned to include our new, second-generation butterfly mechanism — meticulously refined for greater comfort and responsiveness. And the Force Touch trackpad is significantly larger, giving your fingers more room to gesture and click.

Thunderbolt 3
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.

macOS—What Makes it 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.
