Summary

Apple MacBook Pro "Core i5" 2.4 13" Late 2013 *256GB HD *8GB RAM

The MacBook Pro "Core i5" 2.4 13-Inch (Late 2013 Retina Display) features a 22 nm "Haswell" 2.4 GHz Intel "Core i5" processor (4258U), with dual independent processor "cores" on a single silicon chip, a 3 MB shared level 3 cache, 4 GB or 8 GB of onboard 1600 MHz DDR3L SDRAM (which could be upgraded to 16 GB at the time of purchase, but cannot be upgraded later), 128 GB or 256 GB of PCIe-based flash storage, and an integrated Intel Iris 5100 graphics processor that shares memory with the system. It also has an integrated 720p FaceTime HD webcam, and a high-resolution LED-backlit 13.3" widescreen 2560x1600 (227 ppi) "Retina" display in a case that weighs just less than 3.5 pounds (1.57 kg). It does not have an internal optical drive.

Connectivity includes 802.11ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, two USB 3.0 ports, two "Thunderbolt 2" ports, an HDMI port, an audio in/out port, and an SDXC card slot.

In addition, this model has a backlit keyboard, a "no button" glass "inertial" multi-touch trackpad, a "MagSafe 2" power adapter, and an internal, sealed battery that provides an Apple estimated 9 hours of battery life.

Compared to its predecessor, this model not only has an even slimmer housing, but also has a faster and more efficient "Fourth Generation" processor and architecture (and correspondingly higher battery life), as well as faster graphics, storage, and Wi-Fi in addition to improved connectivity.
