Battery life drops very fast within 20 minutes, apps not updating and unable to sign into iTunes on the MacBook even Safari is lagging though my internet connection is great.

Recently bought for my partner and upgraded 2gb ram to 4gb to allow for latest OS update and it's so surprising how good apple hardware is! even though this model is fairly old now. Seems to run most standard software fairly well and nice for light browsing/video/photography. Basically the main reasons I bought this laptop until we have enough coin to buy a newer model.

Just needs an SSD and it's comparable to $500 laptops if not better then most.

About 5 years ago I purchased a Mac book pro. I spent the extra money to be trouble free. All was good for the first 18 months then one of the USB ports died and about 18 months after that the other port died. I was told it would be about $1000 to fix. Apparently the hard drive was faulty and I would need a new computer. After a diagnostic service check I cannot use the computer at all. So disappointed with apple and their product. No more apple for me!!!

The apple MacBook Pro is by far the best laptop that anyone can have it works like a pro it's awesome fast and great when it comes to my YouTube videos but the things that I don't particularly like is the weight and sometimes when I'm opening things up to fast it kinda glitches but that's not a big worry. All that I ever wanted from a computer I have right here.

I have a Macbook Pro (late 2011) and it is so much better than any of the PCs I had before it (especially Hewlett Packard). I highly recommend spending a bit extra and getting a Mac. Recently (i.e. June 2016 - over 4 years past its warranty) it started going slow so I rang AppleCare and they were fantastic. They spent over an hour with me talking me through cleaning up my hard drive and now it works like a dream. They've been similarly helpful in the past and I now only use Apple products. Thanks Apple, you are an example of how businesses should treat their customers!

I bought my Mac Book Pro in 2010, its still running smooth and perfect, only one word for the Apple products Excellent.. They won me and thats why i have IPhone IPad and apple TV At home.. Simply love Apple products. Trust me just buy these super computers from Apple you wont regret

I'm super bad with technology and using a macbook is easy for me. Everything seems very simple and non threatening, and I've had the same computer for three or four years now with no signs of slowing down. There were repairs needed when i lent it to a friend and she let her child go nuts, but as i was covered with applecare//warranty at the time i paid nothing. I like the support apple offers with their products. For instance I mentioned not being able to connect my printer once on a phone call to support and they walked me through not only my original problem but also the connection process for my printer!

I love this computer! It is easy to use and super fast. I have owned mac products for years, and I am always excited when I can get a new one. It used to be you buy it and have to upgrade because it is old right after you bought it. With this, the specs are so good, I know it will not need upgrading. It processes fast, has plenty of storage space, comes with all the apps I need to be productive and have fun, and it is intuitve to use. To buy any other product is a mistake.

Have had my apple mac for two years and love it….. When my old desk top broke after 10 years I went to buy a laptop and came home with another brand….which I found so hard to work out. So back I went to the shop and swapped it for my apple mac….cost me at least another $1000 but I just loved it when I came home and found I could use it easily….very user friendly for a older person with little knowledge of new technology
Easy to figure out and do basic stuff that I need to do…I am over 60 so need the User friendly aspect …for sure
More expensive than most laptops

I really find it good, but the only reason l would give it a 3 star rating is l found that this product is not compartable with all my other devices. Iam sure it would work great if l had other Apple devices. This still has left me not a massive apple fan, but the picture quality is good.
PIcture quality
Not compatable with other devices

There are absolutely no doubts. I have bought two Mac Book in the last 4 years and they perform always perfectly as the first day i turned it on. It doesn't stall, it doesn't get viruses and it is so intuitive to use. I have just got back to use a PC for work and i understand now why they say, when you go Mac you never go back. :-)

This is my first Mac and I've got to say, I couldn't be happier. Everything just works together to make my computing experience phenomenal. I love the retina display on it, but what I love most is the SSD, mainly because of the 10 second start up. After getting used to the retina display, I can't look at any other display the same way anymore. The only issue I have with it is that it only has 2 usb ports. I would like to have more usb ports.
Very powerful, fast with brilliant display and excellent battery life.
Needs more USB ports.
