This is the best Mac have used yet, battery last me all day long no problem, very fast, the Touch Bar works great.

Easy to use and navigate and runs really smooth and the Touch Bar is the best part and makes everything faster

Good build quality with both Thin and light design, Decent performance and Excellent battery life.

I’m a graduate student who was looking for a bit more powerful computer then my previous MacBook. I’m an Apple guy so I was looking only at MacBooks. While the fifteen inch model is incredibly nice, this computer checks my boxes for portability. Now with all pro models coming with the touchbar, this purchase has definitely worked out for me. I strongly recommend for school! Buyer beware, however. With all the issues with the MacBook Pros, definitely get Apple Care. I elected to get the two years of Apple Care with this one, and I’ve already known some screen flicker happening. Not really an issue for me, especially since I have Apple care (along with the limited warranty), so I’m still confident in my purchase. If anything were to happen, I know I’d be taken care of by Apple’s legendary customer service.

This is my first Mac. Im generally a Windows person (gamer and student), but wanted to swap over to Apple mainly because I have an iPhone and Apple Watch. As a student, I have been using the Surface Pro 4 for nursing school for the past 2 years (bought in 2016). Ive noticed the SP4 has gotten pretty slow, so I figured this was my chance to make the switch to a MacBook. My entire family uses MacBooks, and this Mac with he Touch Bar is by far the best laptop I have purchased. I love tech gadgets, and this mets my expectations. I love the Touch Bar, mainly because its just super cool and high tech. I went with Space Gray and it is such a cool cooler. Speakers are amazing when listening to music. I went with the 128gb model because, as a student, I don't do much except study and take notes. 256gb is just way too much for my needs. This is the perfect laptop for students. I use Microsoft OneNote, and thankfully there is an apple app for it. It has made it super easy to transfer my nursing school notes over.

MacBook Pro: The touch at is convenient even if you think you won’t use it, you will. The MacBook Pro is also really really fast also, that’s in comparison to my girlfriend’s MacBook Air. I enjoy the Siri capabilities and the fingerprint unlocking. The screen is really nice. The first thing I did was watch short animated films. The screen quality is A++. As far as the price I believed I received a great deal for what I got.

Lightweight, easy to carry, super fast, efficient, and has great battery. Screen looks awesome

Although you might think the larger 16" MacBook Pro is the better match for a photographer, unless you are actually post processing your work on the laptop the 13" is easier to travel with. It takes up less room and much easier to add to the already heavy and cumbersome photo equipment you bring with you for a shoot. I always bring my laptop for file transfer and viewing, then post with my PC when I get home.

Great Product. Super Fast and easy to use. My daughter loves it. Much better than MacBook Air

I bought this after my 2011 MacBook Pro started slowing down. I recommend it to everyone. There’s nothing better than a MacBook. I was surprised that the new versions don’t include an SD card or USB port. I bought this model because of my own experience and because it was recommended for photography. The SD card port seems like it should be standard. I love the fingerprint reader and the Touch Bar.

Great for a student, light, fast, sleek, and amazing for someone who uses lots of apple products.

I purchased this after returning my MacBook Air. For someone who doesn’t really need a super fast computer this is great. The form factor and the weight of the Air was perfect but I like how much more performance you get out of this. I wouldn’t want to carry this around all the time but I have an iPad Pro for that. Pretty decent value for the price but if you are in apples ecosystem this this thing is a must.

Excellent size, weight and functionality with great portable and efficienty for college student

As a programmer being on the go it is extremely important for me. Most of the time I work out of an iMac and adding this MacBook makes everything so much easier and having everything synced up and ready to go in all my machines and equipment. It is so portable, small and convenient it doesn't even feel like I'm carrying a MacBook with me. Performance off the charts and great as always for programming.

I upgraded my 2009 MacBook Pro to this model. I love it so far. Cons... not having the built in USB inputs anymore. I bought a cheap connector & it works fine but would prefer the little bit of extra width to the machine to add in the USB inputs. Everything else is great. Surprised how much I like the touch bar. This is what I thought I'd use the least but it's actually pretty handy.

Very useful for my studies. Small size works very fast. I carry everywhere I go.

Great speed. Light weight and small body frame compared to the older MacBook Pro models.

Bought this laptop for my granddaughters 16th birthday. It far exceeded her expectations. Apple really has it down. She is in 10th grade high school and we expect the purchase to take us through college. Her teachers all raved about this being a great choice for a student. She is extremely happy with the way the laptop performs. It has a very quick response time and is easy to navigate. Thank you Apple! .

This is my second one and has been great. The first one had a weird screen flickering issue that got worse over time. I did the usual Apple resets and it would go away for a bit, so I returned it. Battery is average not close to what reviewers online have stated, as both laptops have been the same. I have screen at less than 50% with Wi-Fi/Bluetooth enabled, keyboard/Touch Bar at 10sec, while web surfing and battery decreases like 1% every 6-8min. I like the Touch Bar and Touch ID, which are some of the reasons I got it. My iMac is over 5 years old and running strong without having to redo it like Windows every year and/or replacing hardware every 2 years like I used to do. I trust Apple products and their reliability. Except for Beats at the moment. Keep in mind Spotlight has to do an index when you first set up a Mac device. If you don’t leave it alone and let it do its thing the device may overheat and shut down, depending on what you are doing at the moment. Apple should list this somewhere for folks, as it’s a common problem. Check the CPU/Energy tabs in Activity Monitor to observe the amount Spotlight is using.

Love the macbook. Had one previously and destroyed it on accident. Got the new one and have been very pleased so far. Love the battery life, keyboard, and the new touchbar has been great as well. Macbooks definitely cost a premium, if all you want is a basic computer then not sure I would advise the expense but if you want a high performance apple product, then this computer is great-
