A Beautiful Powehouse
I am so pleased with my purchase. I upgraded from the previous 2013 (I think) 15.4” (first Retina model) so from the outside the differences seemed negligible, but let me tell you, this is an incredible machine. The 8-core i9, 32GB RAM, and NVIDIA Pro Vega 20 graphics card make this a solid powerhouse for video editing. The Touch Bar turned out to be way more convenient that I thought it would. And the speakers sound great! Looking forward to enjoying this investment for many years to come. Saved about $600 from a comparable build with the new 16” screen. Highly recommend.

Best Computer I've Ever Owned!
This is a seriously awesome computer. Such a major improvement from the 2014 i7 that I'd used for years. It's rock solid. So far it's been able to handle everything I've thrown at it. Love that it came running Mojave. It allowed me to use all my old programs and pluggins. I'm currently running multiple desktops, with multiple monitors. Love love love.

powerful and user friendly
This computer is a big upgrade over my 2014 MacBook Pro. The fingerprint ID is quick and efficient for accessing password protected web sites. The screen is clear and easy to read. There were a couple of other features that I would have enjoyed, but the price limited me. This was the best that I could do. Still, an elegant tool for producing high quality work.

Beautiful laptop!
Just a solid and beautiful computer. I'm a PC guy and I purchased this not for me but for an employee and I have to admit I'm floored at the quality of how it's built and how well it runs. It won't crash regardless of how many applications I run simultaneously. It's not cheap but it's a great machine.

Just get the new 16 inch
The new 16 inch is significantly cheaper even if you get a discount on this one. The difference on the one I got was the new one is 16inch with better graphics, same processor, 16gb ram (versus 32 on this one), better keyboard (no butterfly), better battery and better speakers. This one in comparison only had more ram compared to the new one I got. It also has more port variety I believe. The new one is 4 USB-C ports and a headphone jack. They're basically the same size too but the 16 has nicer bezels.
