how much battery life does it provide for the Macbook Pro 15 inch with Retina?

I am not sure but I have used this countless times when traveling to charge an iphone, ipad and a macbook pro 15 inch all at the same time. All three could be charged up at least twice without recharging the battery itself. This is not a light battery, it is heavy duty but will fully charge a macbook.

there is nothing particular to Macs about it. It does have a finish that complements the aluminum casing on a Mac Book Pro. Other than that its just a matter of size. I have a 17" MBP and it works fine. Any 15" laptop would not be a problem at all.

I find the battery life to be really long, although my use of the keyboard is sporadic. I've been really pleased at how infrequently I have to recharge. Sorry I can't give you a more precise answer. One thing I try to remember to do is to power off when I'm not using the keyboard. Good luck!

Yes. The dimensions of the 15" MBP with retina is about 14"x9.5". That'll give you about 3/4" padding on the sides of the laptop and about 1/2" padding on the top and bottom of the MBP. Not a ton of padding if it suffers a drop - you might want to consider the 1490 case if you don't mind the extra 1 pound of weight of the 1490.

The MacBook Air is designed to be ultra portable. It is thinner, lighter, with better better life at the cost of being less powerful. The MacBook Pro is designed to be more powerful. With the exception of the standard 13" MacBook Pro, the new Retina models are thinner with better battery life than the older generations. The MacBook Pro is slightly heavier, thicker and more powerful.

depending on how many processes you are running will determine the charge life. I'm getting 3-4 hours. I wish someone in the windows world could develop a battery like my apple products which get 10+ hours. hope this helps.

Mine is a MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014) bought 3 months ago and works great

My macbook pro 15 inch does not have retina display and it fits perfectly. I do not know if it fits the same for macbooks with retina display.

The MacBook pro is heaver and has (usually) more battery life. The MacBook air is good especially for traveling.

I honestly do not know. I dont have the retina display. However, fits perfect on my 15" standard. I love it!

I've never had to use additional power on a non retina Pro. You'll reap the benefits of USB 3. This is a tidy enclosure!

Works perfect on MacBook Pro & new iMac. I like it better than Magic Mouse - for browsing & selecting. Has long battery life even if I don't turn it off between sessions. If there's a problem, check battery connection, one time it had shifted & didn't work well. I reseated the battery & it worked perfectly again. I haven't used on ChromeBook, but anytime it is used on a 'new' machine, it has to be paired again.

Did you follow the instructions and let it charge for 24 hours before first using it? I have my MBP set to "Better Battery Life" and sleep/turn off display after 15 minutes, in Energy Preferences. After watching 75 minutes of video over WI-FI on battery, and Bluetooth turned on for the mouse, I have about 30% battery life left. I don't think that's quite as good as the Apple battery when it's new, but I can live with it.

I don't believe it matters. My macbook pro 15 inch does not have the retna display.

It worked for my 17 inch macbook pro purchase about that time. Good luck. The apple Store told me to use it plugged in and not invest in an expensive Apple battery. I chose to invest in an inexpensive battery. The machine is still working.

It's installed in my computer now, so I can't look. But I will say I am not that impressed. It holds a charge better than my dead battery. But I can't just close the lid on my mac and leave it unplugged overnight. It will die. With my new battery, I could leave my computer sleeping for a week or more. When this is fully charged, I have between 1.5-2 hours of life.
