Macbook Pro, but limited by tiny HD

The Apple - MacBook Pro® - 13" Display - Intel Core i5 - 8 GB Memory - 128GB Flash Storage - Silver is a real disappointment at best.
While it is a Macbook Pro, it is so limited by the tiny HD that it makes the laptop useless except for the lightest of users. If all you do is write papers for college or surf the web, then your good to go, but if you edit music or pictures, need to back up your iPhone or anything else, it is basically worthless.
My iPhone is a 256GB and the computer could not back it up as there was not enough HD space to do it. I literally have nothing on the computer and use a 2 TB external HD for my picture editing. It still could not manage the basics.
Just not a good fit for most users as it cannot be expanded as Apple hardwires everything in the computers now.

Was debating between this and the Pro with the Touch ID. However there is a significant difference in price between the two which cannot be justified as there is a very small difference in specs. go for this one!

I needed a new personal computer and was not sure what to buy. Ive always worked on PCs and was a bit tired of the issues associated with them. The MacBook construction and other benefits atracted my attention and the reduced price on the later model finalized the sale. As I work with this thing and get to understand the mouse pad, etc...I think we're headed for 5 stars!

We needed to replace our 8 year old laptop. The salesman recommended the MacPro saying it cost more but lasts much longer. It is much harder to use than the Windows computer we had but will figure it out in time.

We purchased this MacBook for our son to take to college. We got the same one for our older son 3 years ago and he has been very happy with it. He likes the features and compact design.

I bought this computer prior to beginning my doctoral program and it’s been great. I like having an easy way to switch between my phone, iPad and computer and pick up where I left off.

Excellent choice. I needed a computer and I always love Apple . I was a little weary of the size because I wasn’t sure it was big enough to see. I am pleasantly surprised that it is perfect.

I have always been a Windows user and I am still transitioning to Apple.
I have an Apple 7 phone, IPad and Apple TV and I thought it would be more convenient to have an Apple computer. I only have it for two months and, at this point, I still favor Windows 10. I am probably too set in my ways so t I will continue to use the MacBook Pro and hope my learning experience will change my opinion.

It’s my first Mac laptop took me a little to understand it but now it’s my favorite I love it more than any other brand. Buy an external hard drive to store your stuff and this laptop is perfect.

Exactly as expected for an Apple product. High quality but sort of forced to buy a $300 service plan with it because you don't want to get caught with ANYTHING going wrong or it will be expensive.
