  • Double the opening tool, double the opening speed! We've done so many of these we figure we gotta step our game up a bit.

  • The display cable is now slightly wider to support all those extras pixels. 16.4 mm over the 12.4 mm of the non-Retina 21.5".

  • We also note a new rubber bumper stuck to the fan's top screw—likely to provide a little extra support for all those heavy new pixels.

  • The additional pixels' weight is actually negligible - in reality the bumper is additional support and cushion for the newer, and better (and more expensive) display assembly.
