Price is pretty much the reason Which is why the new MacBook Pro Retina are costing a lot to sell. No, it is not because the users of Apple products do not like it, rather on the contrary, it seems that next to the iMac it is one of the Macs that potential buyers would like to have, but it has this 'small handicap'.
The MacBook Pro Retina is a computer with some spectacular features, but the most basic 13,3-inch model of these MacBook Pro Retina is perhaps too expensive for the current user who prefers to do without the Retina display and increase in processor or RAM, for example.
Apple has a small problem with this MacBook Pro Retina and that is that in some of the stores that the company has distributed in the United States, they warn that this Retina not selling at the rate expected and that is why discount campaigns are carried out in the country, such as the one carried out last week by MacConnection which lowered this Mac nothing more and nothing less than 400 dollars in a lightning offer.
Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), made a price reduction when modifying the processor of this MacBook Pro, but not even with this reduction applied by Apple it seems that the MacBook has the output that the Cupertino would want. If we also take into account some of its problems related to Retina panels from different manufacturers or the sudden rise in revolutions in the fans that some users experienced on their MacBook, we have some really poor sales figures for this Mac.
For this same reason of the high price, when talking about an iMac with Retina display The current MacBook Pro Retina comes to mind. Considering that the smallest display on the iMac is 21,5 inches, What price should Apple sell the Retina all-in-one for?

If Apple were realistic with their prices they would not have this problem
The downside of the 13 model is that it does not have integrated graphics in my opinion. Surely it would sell much better ...
I dislike the fact that everything is integrated into the board, they could have reduced space without integrating everything, they also dispensed with kesintong.
I want to renew my 1st unibody that is already incredibly 4 years old and this retina for now is not my option not only for functions but for prices.
