No it's not. It's located at the bottom of the body. Once you open the back case you can see it already

Wifi antenna normally located on display panel. Only wifi card located at the bottom.

Guys, I have a macbook pro 13 retina.. i have few problems with the keyboard, my right arrow key is a bit loosen, when compare with left arrow key, right arrow can obviously have more loud sound. My spacebar slightly lower than my "C V B N M" key, slightly lower than my both "command" key too.

Is there anyone can tell me is this normal? I just bought for 3 weeks only. sad.gif

Because wifi receiver located at screen lid? By closing it, lower wifi signal?

Yeah, that's one most of the online forums are saying. Weird thing is that the Wifi signal still full bar whether lid is opened or closed.

Anyway, will try out setting up a wifi repeater or get a powerline network adapter.

Anybody here uses 3rd party USB to Ethernet port adapter with their Macbook? confused.gif

Using mbpr 13" 2015 256gb for a week now. Felt very satisfied. Off plug hours is like crazy. Can use 2-4 days in single charge for documents + light internet + songs. 1-2 days for heavy video editing. Now use never got the charge percentage lower than 50% in one day use(assume you charge it daily)

Although imovie takes a hella space 10 gb(but with 500 pictures imported for a movie project)

One nice buy 6.5k worth every penny
