Video reviews
Model overview based on user reviews  
The Apple MacBook Pro 13 (2015) is highly praised for its impressive Retina Display with a 13.3-inch diagonal and a resolution of 2560x1600, offering a very detailed picture and full factory color calibration, which is a standout feature compared to Windows competitors. The laptop is relatively lightweight at 1.58 kg and features a robust cooling system that allows it to handle extended periods of workload efficiently. It includes two USB 3.0 ports, Thunderbolt 2, and miniDisplayPort for peripheral connectivity. The powerful battery supports 6-8 hours of active use and up to 10 hours of video playback. However, the SSD drive's capacity is considered small by modern standards, with only 128GB, which may necessitate carrying an external drive. The Force Touch technology is advanced but may require some adjustment to use effectively. Overall, it's a good model with excellent performance for software, browsing, and simple entertainment.

good model, liked it

One of the most obvious and immediately noticeable advantages is the display. The famous Apple Retina Display with a 13.3-inch diagonal and a resolution of 2560x1600 completely breaks the mold. 227 PPI or 89 pixels/cm form a very detailed picture. Besides the standard advantages of an IPS display (good brightness, contrast, high maximum viewing angles), there is also a full factory color calibration. That's exactly why I bought this expensive laptop, because competitors on Windows don't have a proper professional screen calibration at all. The body is not thick, 18 mm and weighs only 1.58 kg. Yes, ultrabooks can be lighter, but this is a full-fledged laptop that has a normal cooling system and, if necessary, can work under load for hours. The performance is excellent, it's more than enough for my software, browsing, and simple entertainment. For connecting peripherals, there are two USB 3.0 ports and Thunderbolt of the second generation. An additional monitor can be connected via the miniDisplayPort interface. A big and significant plus is the powerful battery. With active work usage, it lasts for 6-8 hours, and you can watch videos for up to 10 hours.
The SSD drive has quite a small capacity by modern standards. Yes, back in 2015, it probably made sense to install a 128GB drive, but now it’s already 2018, and the laptop is called the MacBook PRO. I believe that the minimum acceptable capacity for the sole SSD drive in such a device should not be less than 256GB. Otherwise, I have to carry a small mobile USB 3.0 SSD drive with me. Force Touch also gives me mixed feelings. Yes, the technology is advanced and should be convenient, but I can't seem to remember its functions in different situations and often perform a "force click" instead of a regular click.
