It is discontinued but if you found a new one BUY IT instead of the new versions!

published

Very light and thin laptop. The battery life is great. It allows me to get my school work done and some light photoshop editing as well with no problem.the Retina display is really high quality. only downside was the apple care, which is too pricy!
I was looking for buying the newest versions of Macbook pro with the touch bar. but turned out the store had only one of the older version of Macbook pro with retina display. Im happy with this purchase.

Worst Purchase Ever. Everything failed after 18 months

published

Very disappointed in this product which is a complete rip off. Purchased for my son for high school. Told it would last the full 5 years.
Issues started after 1.5 years. Apple unwilling to assist but finally did after contacting ACCC. Then a year later the WHOLE system fails!! Used for 3 years. Repair bill higher than the price of a new one! Faulty logic board, battery and hard drive.
Be warned - poor after sales. Sell faulty units and refuse to repair. My husband works for Microsoft and says these products (and apple care) are a joke.
Won't be replacing this failed macbook with another. When you spend $2000 you expect it to last longer than a year before it starts failing.
A very angry customer!
BE WARNED!

use every single day

I had never used Macbook since I started to have my own laptop. The 2016 Late Macbook is great. Super fast, pretty light that I can carry it to school in my small backpack, excellent display, perfect sound,etc. I chose the one without touch bar as it is cheaper and I think the original function bar is enough for use.

Good! Love the touchbar addon

published

Bought this because my MacBook Air was on the verge of spoiling and it was a good decision made. Didn't like the butterfly keys on the MacBook 12 inch but this new improved butterfly keys were smooth and provided the feel I like. Touch bar functionality is limited but cool. Hoping more programs would support it soon

Solid performing laptop that is little too expensive!

published

Apple has done it again with a good quality laptop that runs like a dream with beautiful crisp screen and has been updated significantly from the previous model with latest intel processor and now included USB-C connections. Main downsides is the really high price and the lack of tradition USB port (no required to carry around a dongle as a converter).

This is still very good

published

I have used MBP 2010, 2012 for many years, I feel satisfied with its quality.
Now my employer gave me this 2015 model MBP, it is still very good to use, HDMI post can TB(DP) ports are quite useful.
I am very happy with 2015 model than other latest models, such as 2016 and 17, because of they only have USB type-C.

It was excellent

published

I bought it as a birthday gift to my brother who is working on editing and making some special effect for TV commercials. I just borrow it one or two times. The color on the screen was totally correct and the processing speed is fast. There is a little problem to me, someone who used to use windows systems though.

The early 2015 Macbook pro is amazing. Looks good and performs super well under different tasks. Whether it be photo editing or watching YouTube it performs it easily with no lag or noise.
The retina display is quite amazingly clear and super realistic.
The aluminium body around the laptop gives it the luxurious elegant look.
It looks just as good as it performs.
Amazing laptop though a little pricey.

Good enough

published

The Laptop is absolutely good enough
It is exceptionally fast and productive, with an overall good quality. However, I have hid issues with the screen though. This proved to be no concern, however, as Apple traded it in for a new Laptop within a day. Great Customer Service and Product!. Will enjoy it for a while

The best laptop I ever have

published

Simple and elegant model. Best keyboard I ever use compared with other laptops. With backlit keyboard, working at night is more convenient. Display is bright, clear and sharp. Sound is excellent and clear even though the speaker is not located at the front side like other laptops I ever used. With macOS, it is easy to use especially for programming. Highly recommended for daily and specific use.

Simply perfect

published

Would be the best thing that I buy, ever. No regrets at all. If you are thinking of buying a lap top my advise will be a MacBook without a doubt. I wish I got that extra cash to get the 15in but the 13in will do me just fine.

Extremely poor battery life

published

The new MacBook look great but is not the fastest laptop around compared to other laptops with similar specs and has extremely poor battery life. I only manage to get 3 hours of battery life with normal usage.

The screen is excellent.

The keyboard is bot awkward to use initially but you get used to it.

Touch bar is too big and get in the way of typing

AMAZING! Love it, can't live without it

published

I have to admit, i had reservations about the value of the touchbar in the new MBP. The new model is super slim and is very light! The new butterfly keys are amazing and extremely ergonomic. They can make some noise however no more than the shuffle of the keys on older gen MBPs. The retina display is extremely crisp and the SSD is super quick. I have to admit the new USB-C limitations were initially frustrating however I found USB-A to USB-C all in one portable drives. This makes life easier sharing content in the office and at home.

It is exceptionally fast and productive, with an overall firm quality. However, I have hid issues with the keyboard twice. This proved to be no concern, however, as Apple traded it in for a new Laptop within 20 minutes. Great Customer Service and Product!

Super slick speedy laptop

published

This laptop is super fast and is outstandingly good looking. The only problems I have with it are: It is $200 too expensive and that I have to carry around a USB adaptor to connect anything to it.

The Mac OS is mostly good but there is some quirkiness compared with windows. Therefore latter on I may install Windows to overcome this if the Mac OS doesn't completely grow on me. I've found the integration with iCloud is great.
