An amazing piece of technology from Apple.

published

A great piece of technology. Amazingly fast. Superb screen. Touch strip saves time. Large touchpad with haptic feedback. Top quality OSX software. Super brilliant screen. Quality. Had a previous 2015 Macbook Pro. Differences are the new one no longer has the ‘lit’ apple logo. The new one had only USB C ports whereas the old one had USB 3.0 / SD Card / HDMI Ports. Overall the 2015 Macbook Pro was a great model but for me the speed difference is the plus and what made me upgrade.

MacBook Pro 2017 - 15 inch with touchbar

published

Amazing machine.
I use it for heavy video/music production and some high-end gaming, it has not skipped a beat so far. It just works. Very light, portable, and oozes great design, the Touchbar is a good addition, very useful. USB-C ports have not been an issue with addition of a comprehensive hub. And best of all retains it's value, will be able to resell when I upgrade in a few years for a significant amount, try that with any other brand, won't happen. It's a no-brainer.

Never ever again

published

Talked into buying an Apple Mac Pro computer with the sales pitch you get what you pay for. Sadly this was not the case with my Apple Mac Book Pro. Told to just buy another one. No thanks at least if a PC breaks down they are not such an investment and are cheaper to have repaired. Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me.

I love this macbook, perfect, and without a touchbar

published

I am using this laptop for work, with osx, and it is great. I also have a windows on it with bootcamp, which is really really bad - only using it if it is needed, but with the base setup it is the best
If I have to highlight something bad, than it would be only the battery time, which is going down over time, I guess to quickly

Great Computer

published

LOVE this new Macbook 2017. Speeds are incredible and the internal software make my editing job a breeze, the quality of the screen and audio is amazing. I don't know how I handled using the old Macbook pro. I think this machine is far more advanced that any other laptop.

Great customer service to resolve issue with keyboard

published

I love my Macbook Pro, but had serious issues with the keyboard. I bought it early 2017, and some keys were not working as they should ("sticky").

After experiencing consistent issues with my Macbook Pro keyboard, I took it to registered Apple Support provider in October. In consultation with Apple they issued me with a brand new Macbook Pro, and gave me a free upgrade (not major, but a little sweetener for the hassle with the keyboard).

Five stars for customer service and the replacement product is perfect xxx

Perfect laptop for a developer

published

This is the second macbook i have ever owned and I love it.
I purchased the high end 512 GB edition with the dedicated GPU because I knew i was going to use more than 256 GB of space.
Overall, I am loving the build quality as well as the speed of the laptop and OS.

Nothing new

published

I had the old MBP from 2013 and found it to be a great computer, however all of a sudden I started having battery problems. It would get to about 45% and then just turn off. Called Apple and went through process and hours of calls and then just decided it was costing me too much time to be doing this so bought the new one. I upgraded to the 16GB of ram and compared to my old one, it's very very quick. I had a look at the touch bar and couldn't really justify the upgrade. The battery life on the new one is much better, screen relatively the same. Overall, I wouldn't really say it's worth the upgrade.

Not a Novelty

published

Must start by saying that the Touch Bar conveniently located just above the keyboard easily within reach is very smart, and saves precious time from doing anything from web browsing to image editing. Also worth mentioning is the screen. Brilliant contrast, colour, brightness. Battery life is not brilliant however, 7 hours for normal use

It just feels so much better than anything else

published

The touch is so responsive, and the display colours are unmatched by anything a PC can offer. The weight of it and the material are absolutely superior, which you can feel right away. The processor is powerful, and the graphics performance is above acceptable. But I would not play games on it. I opted for this model because it was 600 dollars cheaper than the new pro, and the keyboard feel is nicer.

Still running strong after 4 years!

published

I have had no trouble at all with my macbook pro since the four years I have owned it, no viruses no crashes. Best decision I ever made switching to a mac. However on saying that their software leaves a lot to be desired & I still find myself using a Microsoft laptop from time to time. Apples search function is amazing yet something as simple as right click cut and past, well just saying good luck with that. haha

I jus bought MacBook Pro Mid 2015 inch 2.8 GHz 512 GB storage. It works incredibly fast and with 16 GB RAM, I can play a game that require big RAM whilst browsing or watching from VLC media player. Absolutely love it. The battery is long last. Thanks Apple! :)

Fantastic all round great laptop.

published

The MacBook Pro is my favourite laptop now it is so fast and easy to use. The screen is beautiful and the picture is fantastic. The computer is great at running all day to day tasks and some really challenging programs but the computer runs most programs with ease, it might be more expensive than other laptops but it is certainly worth it if you want a great quality laptop which is robust and works well for school or work than would definitely recommend!!
