Q: What year is this computer?
A: 2020
A: undefined
Q: Is there any discount with being a high school student
A: I didn’t use a student discount . But contact the company and see if they offer one for students.
Q: Does this computer have issues with overheating?
A: From my experience, most MacBooks feel hot when they are running for extended periods of time. This is likely due to the aluminum body of the computer. That being said, there have been some issues with overheating that I have heard of, though most have them have been issues with the specific device and not the model as a whole.
Q: Is this computer compatible with an apple pen?
A: If you mean an apple pencil, no it is not, no macbook has pen or touchscreen capabilities.
Q: What’s the model number? I’m trying to order a case and they all start with A
A: Typically, you don't need the model number to buy a case. I have found that simply putting in the model of the computer, the size, and the year it was released does just fine. You could do something like: "Apple MacBook Pro 13" 2020 case"

10/10 Cant beat the price!
I got my MacBook in great condition. It looks and feels brand new. It’s sleek, without blemish, and it works like a charm. You cannot find a better deal, I saw the price and had to get it. The touch bar is such a cool tool to use! Apple should’ve kept it. I love it. I’m very happy with my purchase. 10/10

Doesn’t Support Tahoe MacOS
I wish this MacBook Pro had new update Tahoe Mac OS the MacBook was in great condition barely scratches only issue I’m pretty sure everyone had it the same thing it gets hot which I believe it’s normal when apple releases only one I’m reviewing doesn’t support newer updates the 13 inch model with the Touch Bar does work for small things for school or other things it’s not important but if you want extra with all specs get M1 Pro it will last you great session faster rates and you get the new update and other specs it will support higher ones.
