In 2016, that feeling became all too familiar. Experienced Mac users will remember all too well the company’s jettisoning of floppy disks, Ethernet ports, and CD drives from days gone by. It doesn’t creep and crawl towards the new horizon, it slams down on the pedal and floors it. When Apple decides to move in a different direction, there are no half measures. It marked the jumping-off point before Apple left its comfort zone and headed into unknown territory with the 2016 MacBook Pro. It was the last to feature the Magic Keyboard until its glorious return late last year, and the last to come with physical Function keys. It was the last to come with ports like USB-A, HDMI, and a full-size SD card slot.

The Retina display was sharp, beautiful, and color-accurate and the trackpad was way ahead of its rivals, and these were deservedly considered major attractions for the MacBook Pro. The keyboard was one of the most comfortable you could find on a laptop, offering plenty of travel and excellent backlighting. These weren’t revolutionary features at the time, but we loved them all the same. It had a fantastic keyboard, a vibrant screen, plenty of ports, and a great trackpad, all coupled with Apple’s trademark build quality and impressive performance under the hood.

They say you don’t know how good you’ve got it until it’s gone, and that’s perhaps nowhere clearer than with the 2015 MacBook Pro.
