Apple - MacBook Pro - 16" Display with Touch Bar - Intel Core i9 - 16GB Memory - AMD Radeon Pro 5500M - 1TB SSD - Silver - Silver

I went from MacBook 2015 13” to this bad boy. I am very pleased. The screen looks great- the keys light up- the speakers are loud. Battery life is great. I use it every day for work, couldn’t ask for a better laptop. Was also nice going with the bigger memory. There is so much more room for activities! I wasn’t impressed with the USB ports- as I had to buy converters to run most of everything I have.. seems as technology advances- having to purchase additional accessories you didn’t need to purchase with the previous model has been a new avenue for companies to make more revenue. Not that it’s a huge deal- it’s an annoyance- it’s like having 4 remotes that you can’t remember how to use to control everything on your TV. Once you get your movie playing- you gotta find the last remote because the other three in your lap don’t control the volume- that kind of annoying... There is enough room for it- an SD card reader- mini and normal size would be nice... The reason I purchased another MacBook- I came into work about a year ago- I left my MacBook 13” on my desk overnight to update. It rained really hard that night- and somehow the roof leaked- all over my laptop. The keyboard had water that filled every key- there was so much water that when I pressed the space bar it splashed back at me after I pressed it. To my surprise however, the screen turned on asking me for my passcode! I turned my laptop upside down as all the water came pooling out. I drained all the water- blew it out the best I could with a compressed air can- and was able to use it for work for the rest of the day. Other than the track pad sinking in a few days ago- it still runs perfect... Everything has its quirks- and cost- all in all I’m happy with my purchase.

I finally decided to jump into the Mac world after being stubborn with owning a PC forever. I can honestly say I'm completely blown away by this laptop. The speed, the screen size, the performance is all top notch. It doesn't run hot at all. Battery life is solid. The magic keyboard and Touch Bar is really cool and easy to use. I went with the 1TB version. It definitely isn't cheap, but if you're on the fence about this just take the plunge and do it! You won't be disappointed.

This Mac is by far the best laptop Apple has produced. It is lightning fast, and the intel core is a monster! If you’ve been in the market for a laptop business or home use this is the way to go hands down. It has a processor that is fast and strong enough for multiple tasks and storage a plenty, but it also is great for students in college or high school that are seriously into art, science, business, and of course, MUSIC!!!! Gotta get this bad boy and give it all you got, it can definitely handle it!

Pros- Screen size, Touch Bar, graphics, keyboard. I like that I can write on my iPhone and when I open my MacBook the information has already transferred. I love the 16” screen size as the 13” seemed small for me and my old eyes. I’m not a tech person and this machine is easy to use. Con- Battery life doesn’t seem that great when I am playing video games with the kids.

We love this computer. The screen is amazing, the keyboard is soft and easy to use and the Touch ID and touch bar make things so much faster and convenient. A dock is a must have add on to add on all the ports the MacBook doesn’t come with. We hooked up a 4K tv as our “monitor“ so we have a nice and big screen to edit with. This is our fist MacBook but we have iPhones and iPads so it’s not a bad learning curve. The only negative that I see is how expensive it is.

We've owned two MacBook Air laptops for years and they have served their purpose, to be light, readily accessible, and lean for mobile travel. We're to the point now of mobile editing in Illustrator, Lightroom, and Photoshop which was a growing chore on the Airs. The MacBook Pro easily handled the Adobe Creative Suite and the 16" screen is amazing. It's nice to move from the iMac 5k to this without feeling or seeing the difference. Having heard of the Touch Bar for years, I really had no interest in it, figuring it to be a gimmick. The Touch Bar blew me away, it's actually a small, low-res screen, showing previews of browser tabs for each tab and switching. And something as simple as a tap to empty trash proved faster than an extra mouse click. The gains in ports with the USB-C connectivity were an adjustment but powering into any port is nice depending on where I'm sitting with the laptop. I do however recommend finding a magnet power connector as that is one of the best Apple technical advancements ever. I rarely watch movies on devices but the sound and video on this is amazing. The sound is directional, pointing at the user creating a pretty immersive experience, I still decided to go with the Boom2 app for added EQ qualities and boost making the system just better. Listening to audio while working is the same, really a great background experience. I was hesitant to wait for the end of year Apple release of a new MacBook Air but with the Best Buy savings and rewards, I'm glad I didn't wait. It has changed our workflow already for the better.

Almost a month with my 2019 macbook pro 16 inch which I bought from best buy and here's my honest review. Primarily I use it for my home studio recording and I run some top notch VST's like Omnisphere & Keyscape from spectrasonic. Everything runs smooth best thing about best buy is that they offer great deals here and there which I saved $200 on this model regular $2,799. If you planning to invest in a new macbook regarding for personal use or studio recording like me, go for it you won't be disappointed.

I have since 2021 with it and lobe it it was an open box and is in excellent condition and working pretty good i save money on a really good product
