Overview and Dimensions

MacBook Pro was released by Apple on November 13, 2019 and is powered by macOS OS. By default, the device is shipped with a web browser — Safari for macOS. Device dimensions are 349 × 240 × 15 millimeters (13.75 × 9.48 × 0.61 inches) ¹. The device weighs 1830 g.

MacBook Pro has a large-sized Retina display with a 15.4-inch screen (632.6 cm², 16:10 aspect ratio), and an approximate 75.5% screen-to-body ratio. The display is a not touch screen, touch events are not supported.

Screen size, Viewport, CSS Pixel Ratio

MacBook Pro has a 15.4-inch screen with a screen size (resolution): 2880px × 1800px, 1440px × 900px viewport¹, and a CSS Pixel Ratio of 2.

Key points for development and testing on MacBook Pro

Before you start web development or testing, check that the web application supports a responsive viewport by using a viewport meta tag: <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">.
You can inspect this tag in the head section of an HTML document on MacBook Pro right in the Blisk app. If this viewport tag is missing, the web application will not be responsive and will overflow the screen, hiding the content from users and leading to a bad user experience.

The form factor of the device represents its primary orientation as a landscape. Portrait orientation is not so popular on desktops as on mobiles.

You also need to consider that desktops are usually manipulated with a mouse, keyboard, and touchpad. To develop a high-quality web application, the developer should keep in mind the way the application responds to the actions of a user on hovers, clicks, drag and drop, focus events, etc. It has become a good practice to use mobile-like behaviors on desktops (e.g. swipe event on a slider). The majority of modern touchpads allow using multi-gestures on laptops and desktops.

CSS Media Query

Use the CSS Media Queries below to apply custom CSS properties for MacBook Pro and devices with the same screens:

@media only screen and (min-width: 1440px)
{ /* Your Styles... */ }

@media only screen and (min-height: 900px)
{ /* Your Styles... */ }

@media only screen and (min-width: 1440px) and (orientation: landscape)
{ /* Your Styles... */ }

@media only screen and (min-width: 900px) and (orientation: portrait)
{ /* Your Styles... */ }

@media only screen and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2),
                    only screen and (min--moz-device-pixel-ratio: 2),
                    only screen and (-o-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2/1),
                    only screen and (min-device-pixel-ratio: 2)
{  /* Your Styles here */ }
