About this product

Product Information

If you're looking for the excellent graphics experience that is the hallmark of Apple products, and you also need power and speed for multitasking, then look no further than the Apple MacBook Pro A1398 15.4-inch model ME664LL/A. Released in February of 2013, this 4.5-pound, sleekly designed MacBook Pro brings together some of the best features that Apple has to offer. The defining feature of this MacBook Pro is its 15.4-inch, widescreen, Retina display. The high-resolution LED backlit screen is enhanced by Apple's trademarked Retina technology, which allows this model to boast a 2880 by 1800 resolution for a stellar graphic and video-viewing experience. With more pixels than a high-definition television, the Retina display on this MacBook Air is spectacularly clear and beautiful. Ideal for gaming, video editing, photo manipulation, artwork, business presentations, and a myriad of other functions, this MacBook Pro is a must-have for multimedia works. In addition to the Retina display, this Mac comes with dual graphics processors. By default, the MacBook Pro will use the Intel HD Graphics 4000 to save battery life. However, the system will switch to the NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M graphics card for graphically demanding web pages and programs. This premium card is equipped with 1 GB of dedicated GDDR5 memory and 1 GB of VRAM. This kind of power can simultaneously support two external displays via Thunderbolt with a maximum resolution up to 2560 by 1600. Running on a masterful multitasking processor, the 2.4 gigahertz quad-core Intel Core i7, the MacBook Pro A1398 also gets Turbo Boost for potential speeds of up to 3.4 gigahertz. Whether you're working or playing, 256 GB of flash storage provides plenty of room for all your documents, pictures, video, and music. Multitasking is a breeze as this MacBook Pro comes with a standard 8 GB of RAM. There's no need to worry about slow-loading web pages or frozen programs with this amount of memory. If you need to work even faster, this Mac Air can hold up to 16 GB of memory, so more can be added later if needed. Getting online is a cinch with the included three-stream AirPort Extreme and Bluetooth 4.0 wireless connections. This MacBook Pro comes with two USB 3.0 ports for peripherals, such as cameras and phones. Other connections include two Thunderbolt ports, an HDMI port, an audio in and out port, and an SDXC card slot. The system comes with a MagSafe 2 power adapter, a trackpad, and a backlit keyboard, which is great if you type a lot in low light. If that isn't enough, a seven-hour battery life makes this Apple Mac an ideal companion for work, vacation, classes, or home use. The Retina technology and superior graphics of the 15-inch display make the ME664LL/A MacBook model an excellent choice for multimedia. When you add in its powerful dual-core processor and abundant RAM, the classic Apple MacBook Pro A1398 remains a go-to laptop when you need a streamlined, consistent machine that can deliver superb graphics, processing power, and multitasking speed.

    Everything great except battery. I'll write below.

    Great machine! Core i7, 16 gb ram, 256 ssd - everything as specified. Little scratches on laptop - as specified as well. Pros. - It's a mac. The one I've dreamed for years. Now it's happened, I've bought it. Great OS, it never compares to PC. - Powerful machine, I can do everything I need (I'm musician, sound engineer). Works fast and stable. - Great choice for video editing. Retina display and 4k videos look wonderful. Cons. - Battery. OS X tells me to service battery (!), but it works. Ideally it must work up to 8 hours. But I can work up to 4-5 hours with only browser, skype opened. And with musical apps opened - up to 2 hours. So battery is working, but i suppose i'll have to change it in couple of mounts. So be ready for this. - Be ready to pay customs rate in your country when you receiving this laptop. In Ukraine I've paid about $ 300 at my postal office. - There are scratches on the body. Not so big, I can notice them just when I look just for them. But seller noticed them in description, so that's OK. So, that's why I've rated 4 stars.

    Get warranty, Nice performance, battery, screen is beautiful, nice ports

    I have had several of these models and they have all had a touchpad problem. I used this for about a 8 months when the touch pad started acting wonky. Apple wants $600 plus to fix, local shops will probably charge 200 for the part and labor. Make sure you get a warranty with every Apple product you purchase it will pay for itself. Other than that fantastic screen, battery life is decent, Graphics performance is actually good for the year and size is just perfect. It is pretty light, speakers are ok BUT not in the same class as the newer MacBooks. Performance is very good as far as processor/ram can run almost anything a modern MacBook Pro can with nice performance.

  • Powerful and runs Adobe Lightroom, Premiere Pro and Photoshop flawlessly

    I needed a powerful laptop to handle my workload as a professional photographer and cinematographer. The fact that it's a compact workstation is only the beginning. I've worked on retina screens before, so it was important to have that feature in my daily workstation. So far I have done three photo shoots, one of them being a wedding, and the images were imported lightning quick. I'm also able to zoom in and out of RAW files with no lag. None.

  • Best Model Out There

    The whole laptop itself is beautiful, not too heavy to travel with, comes with all of the necessary port for USB and HDMI even a SD card reader if you have a camera. It’s a way better value that is update able with the newest IOS software so it’s basically like having the newest version of the MacBook Pro without the hefty price tag. Seamless interface and completely customizable. Will run for years, literally, and in the off chance some part of it goes bad easily replaceable. Well worth every penny.

  • In with the old, out with the new.

    I was very hesitant ordering my MacBook Pro that I've been saving up for (Touch Bar) online on eBay. After researching and researching, I found out the newest MacBook Pro wasn't a good choice since the newest edition has a soldered in SSD, which means you can't upgrade storage if you need more later down the road. I was very persevered saving up for the newest model, I knew what I wanted. But in the end, I didn't. So I thought I would settle for a 2015 edition since the previous models are completely customizable. After about an hour researching I found affordamacllc, and the picture of the 2014 MacBook Pro was very appealing. Trust me, you're getting beyond your money's worth. This is my first Mac and streaming 4K videos on this thing is lightning fast and extremely clear with the Retina display. I was going to drop $3K on a laptop I couldn't upgrade, which has the same exact specs, display but a little brighter, and instead I saved more than half with this purchase. These guys are legit everyone, I have never felt so satisfied with buying a used/refurbished product. Everything about the Mac I love, some little scratches on the bottom but nothing ridiculous. They also state there's normal wear on the notebook in their description, so you know what you're buying. If it wasn't for the scratches, it would literally be a brand new product. I'm into PhotoShop which is the whole reason I wanted a Mac. I'm not disappointed even in the slightest.

  • Excellent seller, excellent Macbook Pro, 100% reliable.

    I'm 100% satisfied with my purchase, I got it delivered before scheduled, cosmetically the computer looks much, much better than the pictures published, I'm extremely satisfied with its performance, running heavy medical software. Overall, Price/Performance/Benefit Ratio in this particular item: 10/10. Thanks!

  • Best Deal on a MacBook

    AFAIC this MacBook Pro is better than the new series. Apple seriously under powers their computers. I bought this for my daughter last year. It has i7 processors, 16gb RAM and a fast SSD. This is the only MacBook that approaches the performance my Mobile Precisions. My daughter skinned it with an amazing black & gold marble and totes it in an Italian brocade laptop bag. Bellissima!

  • Great Computer but..

    I got my laptop today and it has been great, everything runs smoothly (Adobe Apps). Looks good and sounds great. However, I went to go charge my laptop and the adapter for it is barely working, it's making noises and cuts out every once and awhile so I have to unplug it and plug it back in to make it work. So, it looks like i'm going to have to go out and buy a new charger.

  • So Long Windows

    Avid windows user for decades but #10 was the breaking point. Made fun of Macs for a long time but very surprised at the speed and reliability of the software and the system. No more aggravating updates while I am trying to work.
