Excellent but it was a gift for my daughter beginning med school. We only buy Mac and we get them from Best Buy because the reps are extremely knowledgeable.

This MacBook Pro has an amazing retina display and outstanding sound quality. It is a great purchase. The battery life is not impressive as compared to the MacBook Air.

Subpar Compared to Predecessors

While the MacBook Pro is still a capable machine, the quality of the 2017-present MacBook Pro is nothing compared to its 2013-2015 predecessor. I recently switched from an early 2015 model of the MacBook Pro to the 2018 version, and the first thing I noticed was how terrible the battery life is. I don't think the problem is mechanical either - if I am running very VERY simple programs on low brightness the computer will last a while, but as soon as I run more than one program (ex. having scientific journals open for reference while typing a paper), the battery life drains EXTREMELY quickly. When writing a final paper with many windows open, my battery drained 25% in 12 minutes. This level of drainage makes it difficult to be away from a power cord for long amounts of time, which shouldn't be the case for something this 'powerful' and expensive. I have heard that the Pro with TouchBar has a much more capable battery, but that is unfair to the people who can't afford to buy into the TouchBar gimmick. I'd rather have the same specs in both machines and have to pay more for the TouchBar than have to buy the higher end machine when I don't want the extra features.
The only thing that is better about the 2017-present Pro is the speaker quality. Those are great, but verything else? Don't upgrade unless you can dish out the extra $400 for a TouchBar.

Responsive, efficient, and powerful. The speed of the quick-wake response is unreal, and the feedback from the crisp keyboard makes typing on the pro awesome.

This product is amazing - per usual. I prefer to purchase my Apple Products from Best Buy due to the quickness of getting in and out of the store (valuable in my opinion).

We are an Apple family with iPhones and iPads so the MacBook Pro was the perfect choice for my daughter who is about to graduate high school and head off to college.

Purchased "open-box" but other than the sticker saying "Geek Squad Reviewed & Approved" you would not know it was used. Very happy with the purchase overall!

Great laptop all around. That being said, you could totally get another laptop with similar specs for a lot less. I got this laptop just to get familiar with apple interface.
