Best College Purchase
This was hands down one of my best college purchases for freshman year. All of the features including the touchbar, fingerprint id, and storage were very useful during this past school year. Not only was I able to complete all of my work and still have storage, I was also able to download leisure apps like Sims 4. My macbook never ran slow or had any bugs. I am so glad that I choose this laptop for my first year of college going into my second year.

Almost perfect! ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶
I love my new MacBook Pro! It’s perfect. The only reason why I’m giving it a 4/5 is purely because, of aesthetic reasons. There’s like a permanent smudge on the S key. But, I already ordered a cute Sailor Moon keyboard cover. Which will resolve the minor issue. I mean, everything else is great! So yeah, I would really recommend this. It’s super nice.
