The much-hyped launch of MacBook Pro 2016 raised the eye brows of tech giants to know what exactly if offers over its earlier models. Does it really tempt anyone to go for this upgraded piece of technology? Could this be the game changer Apple is looking for? First, let's get our fact sheet before judgment.

Let's walk down through the specs quickly. MacBook Pro unveiled 2 models: 13-Inch & 15-Inch display. The processors are i5 and i7 depending on the model with 256GB storage and 8GB RAM. It was released in two colors-space gray and silver.

The retina display in MacBook Pro 2016 is 67% brighter than MacBook Pro. The images are much sharper. The colors are more rich and true with the new AMOLED screen with 2560 X 1600 resolution.
