Apple - MacBook Pro - 13" Display with Touch Bar - Intel Core i7 - 16GB Memory - 1TB SSD - Space Gray

I loved my mid-2012 MacBook Pro but with all the new upgrades and technology, I haven't upgraded my computer from Sierra - I didn't want to lose some of the software compatibility but I definitely needed a new computer. I didn't want the 15" as it would be too big to schlep around - but I also wanted the i7 - it states on here that I bought an i5 but my computer is an i7. It was a late model 2019 which I didn't know when I bought it - thinking I was buying a 2020 model - that should have been stated to me but it wasn't - it appears the new 2020 does not come in an i7 processor and I did get a good deal on it with a number of discounts -- and I felt with all the graphics and music and editing I do, I needed an i7 - in fact, my older MacBook was an i7. So even though I raised concerns about not being told that this was a 2019 model - I spoke to the manager of the computer dept at Best Buy and he told me the butterfly keyboard on this model was better (even though they did away with it in the 2020 model) because the late-year 2019 had raised the keys and made it feel like a real keyboard (that was a concern of mine, that if it was him. he would choose the i7 over an i5 and other than the keyboard - there wasn't a whole lot of difference between the 2 years. Well, I decided to keep it for the i7 and am very happy with the performance of it so far. It's a bit upgrade from a 2012 but also an easy transition.

My purchase was made on 9/18/2020. I purchased a MacBook Pro because I am going back to school. This gentleman was patient, Very informative and gave great recommendations to assist me on getting what I need. He was the perfect representation not only for the company but also Apple products. If you need unbiased views and someone who will listen to your needs and meet them, Michael would be the person to see! I give 5 stars. when I start my company I will be recruiting him!

Computer works well. New tool bar takes some getting used to - mainly use old functions and forgo use of this tool. Having no USB ports without an adapter also is different and requires more prep to ensure you always have an adapter to charge your phone or use other external devices. I dislike apple changing the charging cords so your old cords become obsolete on new devices. It seems they should remain consistent to benefit customers who are loyal to apple and have older charging cords that are now incompatible. The price point is too high on extra charging cords and they often stop working. Device works well.

This is the first Mac product I’ve ever bought, I was tired of my old dell windows 10. It’s a learning curve going to MacBook but it’s easy so far. It’s lightning fast compared to windows, the windows programs I’ve used are available on Mac if you search them.

I love this computer. The keyboard is much easier to type on than my older Macbook Pro. I love the touch bar which is customizable to add the buttons that you frequently use. The fingerprint security is great to make online purchases fast and easy. I use this computer for work where I am frequently working with several very large files at the same time. It works fast, never lags. I also love that with iCloud, I can work on a document on both my laptop and my iPad and it saves and updates to the other device seamlessly. I'm so glad that I went with computer!

This is the first non-Windows based computer I've purchased and it has not disappointed! I'd made the switch-over to iPhone since 2015, so the cross-device integrations (e.g. Messages, Notes, etc) are great for accessibility to the apps without having to do them via phone. The Touch Bar is a nice convenience feature that extends shortcuts and functionality for the app in use. While transitioning from one platform to another always requires a learning-curve, most functions are relatively intuitive and are otherwise easily found via Apple Support articles.

Been wanting a MAC for a long time and had been researching different types, space available and price points. I waited until Cyber Monday and got a GREAT deal. So far this machine exceeds all my expectations. After having HP, Dell and other PC's it operates like a dream. I'm over the moon about the 1TB SSD and ease of operation of a this MAC. I did have to get accessories such as something to add so I could use USB and a new keyboard but other than that this was so much more smooth sailing!

This was my first personal laptop and i couldnt be happier. If you have an iphone and you like the ease of use. look no further. you may be used to windows, but apple really makes it easy and it feels like home... I actually purchased another mac a week later for my girlfriend
