Apple has announced a new 15-inch MackBook Pro with Retina Display. Apple’s premium Pro notebooks get the Force Touch trackpad that was showcased earlier this spring on its new MacBook laptop. Its battery life is improved with an extra hour of battery life bringing to about nine hours. The machines start at $1,999.
The Force Touch trackpad is so named because of its haptic feedback. The trackpad can detect the amount of pressure you apply to the surface, leading to different outcomes. Pressing hard on a word a webpage, for example, may let you quickly summon a definition or synonym for that word. Pressing down hard on an address may open a map.
