This is the 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display, the 2012 model with a 2.4GHz dual-core Intel Core i5, 8GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD. Its draw is the 2560x1600 screen, a slim unibody aluminum build and a backlit keyboard, plus a set of ports that later Retina models dropped. It suits light office work, writing, browsing and media, and buyers who want a cheap way into a Retina screen. Against newer MacBooks it is heavier, runs an older Intel chip and no longer gets current macOS updates, so it is a budget pick rather than a modern one.
