"None of the MacBook Pro laptops support this much RAM. Only a desktop system is able to and only a few models have the ability to be upgraded to this level.

Presently all of the retina series have soldered RAM only the older non-retina series has upgradable RAM.

The newest touch bar retina series systems also have soldered flash storage so they can’t be upgraded but the older retina series have socketed flash SSD drives.

Update (10/31/2019)

Apple now offers 32 GB of RAM as a special order config in the 2018 & 2019 15” MacBook Pro Touch Bar systems. This is soldered in RAM!"

According to Wikipedia, MacBook Pro Retina has soldered on RAM, the Unibody before it has upgradeable RAM slots, you may upgrade those up 8gb per slot = 16gb max.

My 2015 MacBook Pro Retina 15" takes 2X 16GB DIMMS for 32GB Total.
