CUPERTINO, Calif. — The MacBook Pro, Apple’s flagship laptop, is about to get a transformative overhaul, sources said Tuesday.

Apple plans to debut the first major upgrade to the line since the aluminum unibody in 2008 at its upcoming Worldwide Developers Conference, according to people familiar with the matter.

The new MacBook Pros will feature a significantly thinner chassis, new high-resolution “Retina-esque” displays, faster processors chosen from Intel’s third-generation Core series chips, code-named Ivy Bridge, and Nvidia GPUs (graphics processing units).

Most of these details were first reported Monday by tech blog 9to5mac.
