I love apple computer products they are sometimes a little expensive. With that said I have a 21 inch Mac that is o my desk and have had multiple MacBooks over the years. This is a great product. It looks brand new and has a great battery life, This was purchased for doing some video editing and with the extra memory it has performed well. I did not expect it to be as good as a mini or a full desktop mac or even MacBook Pro but I am happy. On my last trip I had planned on using it for some editing so I fully charged the battery. I did not get to use it other than 5 minutes but in standby mode after 10 days the battery still had most of its charge. This is light and thin what I wanted in a laptop. Exactly what I expected based on how it was advertised. It was also in the right price range for what I wanted.
