Like its regular display counterpart, the MBP Retina 15" has two USB 3 ports and an SDXC card slot but sacrifices the FireWire 800 and ethernet ports to include two ThunderBolt ports and an HDMI port. The MagSafe Port has also been replaced with the MagSafe 2 port allowing for a thinner case design.
