Jul 29, 2016 Mac operating systems are free since the launch of OS X Mavericks in 2013. Windows 10 was likewise a free update until 29 July 2016 (out of Windows 7 8) – but today, you are going to need to cover #119.99 for the Home edition of Windows 10 and £219.99 for Windows 10 Pro. The MacBook Pro 'Core i7' 2.8 15-Inch (Dual Graphics/Force Touch - Mid-2015 Retina Display) originally was only available as a 'configure-to-order' configuration of the MacBook Pro 'Core i7' 2.5 15-Inch (Dual Graphics/Force Touch - Mid-2015 Retina Display), but Apple later added it as a standard option, as well.
Your Mac provides several tools to help you identify it. The simplest is About This Mac, available by choosing About This Mac from the Apple menu in the upper-left corner of your screen. The other is the System Information app. Learn how to use these tools to identify your Mac.
If you don’t have your Mac or it doesn’t start up, use one of these solutions instead:
- Find the serial number printed on the underside of your Mac, near the regulatory markings. It’s also on the original packaging, next to a barcode label. You can then enter that serial number on the Check Coverage page to find your model.
- The original packaging might also show an Apple part number, such as MLH12xx/A (“xx” is a variable that differs by country or region). You can match the Apple part number to one in the list below to find your model.

The MacBook Pro 'Core i7' 2.8 15-Inch (Dual Graphics/Force Touch - Mid-2015 Retina Display) originally was only available as a 'configure-to-order' configuration of the MacBook Pro 'Core i7' 2.5 15-Inch (Dual Graphics/Force Touch - Mid-2015 Retina Display), but Apple later added it as a standard option, as well.
The MacBook Pro 'Core i7' 2.8 15-Inch (Dual Graphics/Force Touch - Mid-2015 Retina Display) features a 22 nm 'Haswell/Crystalwell' 2.8 GHz Intel 'Core i7' processor (4980HQ), with four independent processor 'cores' on a single silicon chip, a 6 MB shared level 3 cache, 16 GB of onboard 1600 MHz DDR3L SDRAM (which cannot be upgraded later), 512 GB or 1 TB of PCIe-based flash storage, and dual graphics processors -- an AMD Radeon R9 M370X with 2 GB of dedicated GDDR5 memory and an integrated Intel Iris 5200 Pro graphics processor with 128 MB of 'Crystalwell' embedded DRAM (and shared system memory). It also has an integrated 720p FaceTime HD webcam and a high-resolution LED-backlit 15.4' widescreen 2880x1800 (220 ppi) 'Retina' display in a case that weighs just less than 4.5 pounds (2.04 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 new advanced 'Force 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 is similar, but it has a faster graphics processor, faster flash storage, a higher capacity battery, and a more advanced 'Force Touch' trackpad. It has some different identifiers, too.

| Processor Speed: | 2.8 GHz | Processor Type: | Core i7 (I7-4980HQ) |
| Details: | This model is powered by a 22 nm, 64-bit 'Fourth Generation' Intel Mobile Core i7 'Haswell/Crystalwell' (I7-4980HQ) processor which includes four independent processor 'cores' on a single silicon chip. Each core has a dedicated 256k level 2 cache, shares 6 MB of level 3 cache, and has an integrated memory controller (dual channel). This system also supports 'Turbo Boost 2.0' -- which 'automatically increases the speed of the active cores' to improve performance when needed (up to 4.0 GHz for this model) -- and 'Hyper Threading' -- which allows the system to recognize eight total 'cores' or 'threads' (four real and four virtual).

| System Bus Speed: | 5 GT/s (DMI2)* | Cache Bus Speed: | 2.8 GHz (Built-in) |
| Details: | *This system has a 'Direct Media Interface' -- specifically DMI2 -- that 'connects between the processor and chipset' in lieu of a traditional system bus. Intel reports that it runs at 5 GT/s. |
| Details: | N/A |
| Details: | *Each core has its own dedicated 256k level 2 cache and the system has 6 MB of shared level 3 cache. |
| Details: | Shipped standard with 16 GB of 1600 MHz DDR3L SDRAM onboard. |
| Details: | 16 GB of RAM is onboard and cannot be upgraded to a higher capacity at the initial time of system purchase or later. Also see: Actual Max RAM of All G3 & Later Macs. |
| Details: | There are no RAM slots. 16 GB of RAM is onboard. It cannot be upgraded after purchase at all. |
| Details: | *This model has dual graphics processors -- an AMD Radeon R9 M370X with 2 GB of dedicated GDDR5 SDRAM and an Intel Iris Pro 5200 with 128 MB of 'Crystalwell' embedded DRAM (and shared system memory). The system automatically switches between graphics systems based on use (when applications use OpenGL, Core Graphics or other graphically demanding technologies, the system will use the dedicated AMD graphics, otherwise it will use the integrated Intel graphics to conserve battery life). Also see: Is there a 'hack' to switch between graphics processors on the Retina Display MacBook Pro models manually? |
| Details: | *The AMD Radeon R9 M370X graphics processor has 2 GB of dedicated GDDR5 memory. The 'integrated' Intel Iris Pro 5200 graphics processor shares 1 GB of memory with the system for graphics function, but also has 128 MB of 'Crystalwell' embedded DRAM on the CPU package to provide more memory bandwidth than earlier integrated graphics solutions. |
| Built-in Display: | 15.4' Widescreen | Native Resolution: | 2880x1800 |
| Details: | This model has a 15.4' color widescreen LED-backlit display with IPS technology with a 2880 by 1800 native resolution at 220 ppi (178-degree viewing angle). It also supports scaled resolutions of 1920 by 1200, 1680 by 1050, 1280 by 800, and 1024 by 640.
