    Horrible product. Purchased on July 24th returnable until August 8th and the screen spontaneously cracked on the left lower corner on 8/16 even though was treating it very carefully since it is a new Laptop. I got charged $99 even though I have apple care +. Stay away from this mac. I seen there are multiple similar incidents online with cracked screen shortly after purchase . There might to be a design issues but I am not sure. Apple need to give answers.

    The review of for the transaction not the product. I get an email about the transaction weeks after the purchase. Apparently they made a mistake when applying the taxes to my product while checking out. So yes, they charged my credit card once again. And yes, I read about how they tax electronic items. Why not just honor the price I was originally charged?

    Would be a better rating if I hadn’t received it almost a week later than the date they said then when I get the package it had already been open and taped back up I was very disappointed FedEx or someone would take the package and delay my delivery for a week I’ve never used FedEx and wouldn’t again I called them asking about it and they said they couldn’t do anything and to send it back.

    They are selling inauthentic products. I will be returning this laptop and will advise everyone else to return theirs and avoid the hassle of buying fake inauthentic products from Best Buy. They sold me an inauthentic AirPod pro with this laptop. So now I’m not sure if the laptop is inauthentic too. I will find out when I try to return and they refuse like they did with the AirPod.

    My only disappointment was my Mac book pro was only 3 years old and it completely failed. The Geek Squad was very helpful when it came to purchasing a new computer.

    Could be a lot better, the innovation from Apple has stopped. While I enjoy the software the hardware is just not there anymore.

    I love this laptop. It's so much lighter than the Pro (obviously). I feel like it's faster too, but that could also be because it's new. It's sleek, slim, and the midnight selection is so much better than the original options.
