Initially launched with 13, 15, and 17-inch screens, the 17-inch model was discontinued in 2012. The first-generation MacBook Pro replaced the PowerBook G4, switching from PowerPC G4 to Intel® Core™ processors, marking a significant upgrade. Over the years, Apple integrated features like unibody aluminum construction, Retina Displays, and Touch Bar, continually enhancing performance with newer processors and technologies.
The 2008 unibody models introduced a sleek aluminum design, available in 13 and 15-inch options. In 2009, a 17-inch variant was added.
