Apple Macbook Pro 13" 2020

Don't get me wrong, I love my MacBook, the OS and the aluminium shell.

However the retina display screen couldn't be more fragile.

If anything put any pressure on the screen, it will inevitably crack it.

The screen is so fragile that its weight is enough to damage it, if anything left on the top of the keyboard.

The cost of repair is $850 for the part and $200 for the labor. Apple Care cost $299 and charges $149 for each repair.

This generation of MacBook Pro follows in the classic design of it's predecessors originally released in 2016, with the notable move away from the butterfly keyboard, cementing its build quality and reliability as top notch. This MacBook features classic features that Apple users have come to love including the Touch Bar, Touch ID. Featuring an ultra light, thin and minimalist design it has to be the best looking notebook out there. The real game changer here is on the inside, the new M1 chip simply changes the laptop game, providing significan...

Amazing product. Easy to navigate. Beautiful graphics. Perfect size and not too bulky. Lightweight and compact. What i would have preferred was a touch screen option though. And it's fun

It has been two years since the M1 MacBook Pro arrived. But it is still one of the most popular notebooks to be used.
My experience with this notebook has been more than enough for my intended use. The battery lasts for an entire day on a full charge.
One of the key things to note is the performance. The performance is snappy and opens quickly, but sometimes it can choke on running more than four heavy apps, like Adobe apps or extensive Final Cut Pro editing.
It is perfect for school, education, or business use (for emailing and using Pages or ...

I find this laptop easy to use, but it is rather expensive for what it is. Especially if you need to replace anything (like the power cable) - and can only get the Apple branded one which costs an arm and a leg.

I have been using Apple MacBooks for 15 years. I use all my laptops mostly at home, and rarely transport them for fear of bumps.

My 2008 Unibody MacBook was owned for 3 years from new with no issues.

My 2010 MacBook Pro was purchased used, and died after 1 year. As I can't say how the MacBook was used by the previous owner, I let it go at a big cost to me, without engaging Apple for solutions.

My 2012 MacBook Pro was purchased new. The charger started splitting in 2014 and it was replaced by Apple. This same thing happened again in 2017 and ...

From the order process onwards this has been an absolute disaster. You pay $2200 for a laptop so you expect to get some decent service. But don't expect anything.

Just like the way they make their iPhones slower on purpose to get you to buy a new one they only care about the initial dollar transaction. Afterwards it's your problem.

It took a month for this to be delivered. After two weeks it said it would arrive but for the next two weeks I was being messed around from TNT to Apple back to TNT.

Honestly, if you have a choice just go for something else. Apple is not what it used to be anymore.

I spent a lot of time researching the M1 Macbook Pro at release, after a few weeks purchased one and I have absolutely no regrets.

With the M1, they pack a ton of performance into a laptop with such great battery life, and colour-accurate display. Really punches above its weight. If you don't need the extra ram/ssd space the cheaper M1 Air is the best option for you.

Honestly - try one in a store, look at some YouTube video's etc.. The use case for this device is insanely broad, from uni student to hobby music/video editing and some basic professional media work.

The M1 Macbook Pro has enough performance/battery that it will make portable the jobs you once could only do on a desktop.

I got this around the announcement of M1 Macs (which I also own) but I really needed an Intel version due to software compatibility. This has the updated Magic Keyboard and performance is good (for an Intel) too. It is still my main personal computer and I love it but it's NOT perfect. The fans are load during heavy load (compiling codes, running a lot of apps, gaming, and Zoom) and the battery drains really fast. While it's not that bad, I have an M1 Macbook Air to compare it too and the battery of that thing lasts long. If you're buying a new Mac, stay away from Intel but if you can find this version cheap, grab it!

This recent purchase was meant to have us up our productivity and make me have that new MacBook feeling where things are way faster and have less issues. A few weeks in and it’s about as good as my four year old Mac. Not impressed as two weeks in its already crashing

I bought the 13" macbook pro (with touch bar) and Apple Care in 2017 for $3,000. Its been a good computer (other than having to have it replace soon after purchase for a display problem). But now 3 years in - with Apple Care expired - the battery has failed - I can only run it with power connected - and it will cost $600 to fix. I just can't justify the price for something that only lasts 3 years. Next time I think I'll just go to a cheaper windows machine.

Very exciting to use toolbar and photo editing features. After upgrading from a Mac Air- I was slightly disappointed, this product did not make a major difference to my overall productivity. In saying that- the Touch ID is extremely handy!
