Competitors like the Asus ZenBook Pro ($1,249.00 at Amazon) and the Dell XPS 15 have 4K-resolution (3,840-by-2,160) displays and more desktop screen space, but downscaled 4K video still looks excellent on the MacBook Pro, especially when you turn up the brightness all the way. Thankfully, the increased screen brightness is able to overpower most reflections, but you still may notice some while viewing particularly dark images. Before 2015, MacBook Pros had a matte-finish option, but it's no longer available. The Dell XPS 15 Touch ($949.99 at Dell) increases that range to 100 percent Adobe RGB (which includes DCI-P3 as a setting), but we have no doubt that photographers and videographers will appreciate the brightness and accuracy of the MacBook Pro screen. It's certainly smaller and lighter than competitors like the Asus ZenBook Pro UX501VW-DS71T, the HP Spectre x360 15t (15-ap012dx), and the Dell XPS 15 Touch (9550).

When I placed it into a backpack made for 15-inch laptops, the eBags Professional Slim Laptop Backpack ($109.99 at Amazon), there was enough room in the main compartment for a Microsoft Surface Pro 4 ($574.95 at Amazon) or an Apple iPad Pro ($313.99 at Best Buy). Measuring 0.61 by 13.75 by 9.48 inches (HWD) and weighing 3.99 pounds, it's smaller all the way around and lighter (by half a pound) than the 2015 model. Like the 13-inch version with the Touch Bar, the 15-inch MacBook Pro comes with an aluminum body clad in Space Gray (like our review unit) or Silver. But overall, this is the high-end desktop-replacement laptop we'd recommend for power users in the graphic arts or anyone who wants the ultimate in a fast and future-minded large-screen laptop. You will have to get used to a shallower keyboard, a lack of USB 3.0 ports, which will most likely require dongles, and the MacBook Pro ( at Amazon) isn't cheap (though most high-end machines of this caliber have similar price tags). It's also equipped with Apple's new Touch Bar with Touch ID, which gives you adaptable function keys that help you more easily interact with apps. The 2016 redesign is slimmer and lighter, with the formidable computing power, superb build quality, and long battery life that you expect from the MacBook Pro. The 15-inch MacBook Pro (starts at $2,399 $2,799 as tested) is the closest you can get to toting the power of an Apple desktop like the iMac ( at Amazon) around the office or in your carry-on luggage.
