This MacBook Pro is a thing of beauty. Its fast in every way, so light that I can carry it every where, and it has yet to crash on me. Connects to my Apple TV's around the house without a problem. Now as for why I am disappointed is I needed to purchase a USB-C to USB 3.0 Mini Adapter. Its the only way to be able to charge my phone with it. I need to use one to connect my portable hard drives and well anything that needs a USB port. The adapter was only $10 but its the principle that they could've added at least one on the Pro.

Macpro in2017 is an amazing product, not just display, but is fast initiation and easy to use. The only weakness is you need to buy extra usb adaptor in order to transfer the documents.

I am a longtime Windows fan, with Windows 10 being my favorite OS to date. In summary, I have seen the light. The MacBook Pro is the best laptop I have ever owned or used. Gaming aside, this is the best laptop you can get. Period. For gaming, Windows 10 or a console are the way to go. I have a gaming PC and that is not going to change anytime soon. For personal use, however, my MacBook Pro is now my computer of choice. I bought a MacBook Air for my wife during Best Buy's $799 Black Friday promotion. She loves it for casual email and web surfing. I tried it out and it grew on me. Fast forward a few weeks and I decided to trade in my iPad Air and Apple Watch 1 and I initially tried a Surface Laptop. I returned it less than 24 hours later due to wifi issues and instead picked up this MacBook Pro at the holiday special price of $1149. I have used it extensively for about a month and here are the Pros and Cons. Pros: -Drop dead gorgeous screen, Retina cannot be beaten -Fast, the Core i5 CPU has no trouble keeping up -Good battery life, I generally can go 8-10 hours of hard use between charges -Wakes up quickly, just as fast as your iPhone or iPad -OSX has grown on me, its very intuitive once you get the hang of it -Oversized trackpad is cool, as is the haptic feedback you get when you press it -Laptop is very high quality, the aluminum feels and looks great, nothing feels cheap -Speakers are the best you can get on a laptop, plenty of volume and depth and even some bass -Not too heavy, it was in my backpack for a recent trip I took and it was fine as far as weight -Most content I used on my iPad is available on the Mac, including Zinio, iTunes movies and shows and Outlook app -Getting and sending text messages and making and receiving telephone calls on the MacBook is very handy, works so long as the iPhone is nearby -Did I mention the gorgeous Retina screen? Cons: -Keyboard travel is very short, it takes some time to get used to it -No Netflix app for Mac - whats up with that, they have an app for Windows 10 -Power supply is big and buying a second one for your backpack for trips is expensive -Limited connectivity options, this model only has two Thunderbolt USB-C ports and a headphone jack -More powerful models can get pricey

This is half as big and twice as powerful as my previous MacBook Pro. It's great for traveling, keyboard is fine for typing, beautiful display, good sound volume. Unfortunately, there are only two ports. To plug anything in, eg; film cards, USB devices, etc, you need an adapter or a hub. The hub I tried DID NOT work with the CD/DVD Superdrive 's USB plug. It needed an adapter, which worked fine. Bluetooth, and Airdrop are good.

This is my second MacBook Pro. My first 15" went 6 years with daily use. Apple MacBook Pro display is beautiful high definition and my 2017 13" is even a higher definition than my 2011 model. Never worry about a virus and my 2017 model has almost a 10 hour battery charge. Big improvement.
