Love this computer! Completely worth the investment. This computer is fast and easy to use. When you use something like a computer every single day you want it to operate quickly and with ease; and this one does it all!
The most important thing for me was that the computer was fast and this one is!
I’m so happy I chose this computer. The team at Best Buy was great and answering all of my questions and supporting me to find the computer that would best support me.
So so grateful!
Smoothest Transition from Windows – MacBook M4 Pro

I recently switched from a high-end Windows laptop to the new Apple MacBook M4 Pro (24GB RAM / 512GB SSD) — and wow, what a game-changer.
First off, the performance is absolutely mind-blowing. The M4 chip handles everything I throw at it — from multitasking with heavy apps to running virtual machines — without even breaking a sweat. The 24GB RAM is a sweet spot: apps launch instantly, and there's zero lag even with dozens of tabs and multiple creative tools open.
As someone new to macOS, I was a bit nervous about the switch — but the UI is intuitive, smooth, and honestly a joy to use. The transition was much easier than expected, thanks to seamless iCloud integration and helpful tutorials.
The Liquid Retina display is stunning — sharp, vibrant, and easy on the eyes. I do a lot of photo editing and video streaming, and the colors just pop. The battery life is another huge win. I easily get 20+ hours on a single charge — something I never got on my Windows laptop.
Pros:
Blazing fast M4 chip performance
Beautiful display and excellent build quality
Whisper-quiet even under load
Excellent battery life
Seamless transition from Windows
Cons (minor):
Some Windows-specific apps required alternatives or workarounds
Took a few days to get used to Mac shortcuts
If you're on the fence about switching — do it. This machine is worth every penny and has made my daily workflow smoother and more enjoyable.
The Best Buy representatives were fantastic. They took the time to truly understand my needs and recommended the perfect configuration based on my usage. Their knowledge and patience made the buying process smooth and stress-free. Purchasing from Best Buy always gives me peace of mind — from expert advice to reliable service and support. It’s more than just a store; it’s a place where I know I’m making the right tech decisions.

I recently upgraded to the 14-inch MacBook Pro with the M4 Pro chip, and it has completely blown me away. The performance is unreal — everything from video editing to multitasking with multiple apps feels instant and effortless. The Apple Intelligence features integrate seamlessly, making my workflow smoother and smarter every day.
The Space Black finish is stunning in person — sleek, premium, and resistant to fingerprints (a big improvement!). The Liquid Retina XDR display is breathtaking with its vibrant colors and sharp detail, perfect for creative work or streaming in HDR. The 24GB of unified memory keeps everything running flawlessly, and the 512GB SSD is super fast.
Battery life is another standout — I easily get through a full day of work without needing to plug in. The keyboard feels great to type on, and the speakers sound phenomenal for a laptop this size.
Apple really nailed it with this generation. If you want a laptop that combines power, intelligence, and beauty, this MacBook Pro is worth every penny. Highly recommend!

I recently upgraded to the 14-inch MacBook Pro with the new M4 Pro chip (in stunning Space Black) from my older M1 MacBook Pro via Best Buy’s trade-in program, and the experience has been phenomenal.
Design and Aesthetics:
The Space Black finish is an absolute showstopper. It gives the laptop a sleek, modern look that sets it apart from the classic silver or space gray models.
The 14-inch form factor hits the sweet spot for portability and screen real estate—I can comfortably work on the go without feeling cramped.
Performance:
Coming from the M1 chip, I can definitely notice the power boost. The M4 Pro handles demanding tasks like video editing and 3D rendering with ease.
Apps load almost instantly, and multitasking feels fluid thanks to the 24GB of memory. Running multiple creative applications simultaneously (Photoshop, Final Cut, multiple Chrome tabs) has not slowed this machine down at all.
Battery Life:
The battery life has pleasantly surprised me. Despite the increased performance, I’m still able to get through a full workday without scrambling for a charger. Apple’s efficiency gains in these newer chips really shine here.
Display:
The 14-inch Liquid Retina XDR display is spectacular—bright, crisp, and color-accurate. Whether I’m editing photos or streaming my favorite shows, the visuals look vibrant and lifelike.
Keyboard and Trackpad:
The keyboard remains comfortable and responsive, with decent key travel. The trackpad is large and incredibly precise, making gestures seamless.
Trade-In Experience:
I was initially hesitant about trading in my M1 MacBook Pro, but Best Buy made the process hassle-free. They evaluated my device quickly, gave me a fair credit, and I put that directly toward this upgrade.
Overall Verdict:
If you’re on the fence about upgrading from M1 to the latest M4 Pro, this new MacBook Pro is well worth the investment—especially if you can trade in your old machine for credit. The performance boost, stellar display, battery efficiency, and sleek Space Black design all come together to offer one of the best laptop experiences on the market.
I’m thoroughly impressed and would highly recommend it to anyone seeking a powerful, future-proof MacBook that’s a step up from previous generations.

I love it! Bought it for college next fall so I could learn to use it and it seems to be the best time to buy and it’s actually the perfect laptop. The battery lasts forever and there’s no lag.

I absolutely love my new MacBook Pro! I purchased this Mac because it was time for an upgrade, I previously owned the M1(2020) model and had been eyeing this new M4 for a good minute. I was hesitant to do a trade in because I usually would get low balled on the value ,but BESTBUY made it so easy and painless to do everything all at once and I got a really good trade in value minus $100 because I ended up keeping the old power supply cord, as I could use it to charge up my iPhone quickly. lol ok back to my new purchase…..
I’ve been using my new M4 for about 2 months now and I’m so thrilled with its performance and capabilities. It’s so smooth and wonderful on all aspects. Besides the obvious aesthetics of this machine, the insides are just as magnificent. Thank you Apple and thank you Bestbuy. You truly have outdone yourselves.

Fast service. Order the day of and picked up the same day. As of right now it's been working great. Although I am bias to Apple computers.
I will say I expected the battery life to be better. I do use battery consuming softwares. But speed and display is good. I had the 16 in before and the 14 in is better for traveling convenience.

The setup was super easy and the battery life lasts longer than I expected. The screen quality is crisp and the keyboard feels comfortable to type on. For the price, I honestly feel like I got a great deal. If you’re looking for something reliable that gets the job done without any hassle, this is a solid choice!

This laptop is a BEAST! As a small business owner this laptop helps me multitask and streamline many aspects of my days to day. The MacBook integrated so seamlessly with my iPhone and iPad Pro and allows me to maneuver in between each device so gracefully. Can handle heavy workloads, and the MacBook Pro is just a joy to work on.

I’ve been using my MacBook Pro (model MX2H3LL/A) for a few months now, and honestly it’s been a game-changer. The speed is ridiculous—apps open instantly and multitasking is smooth even when I’ve got a bunch of tabs, Photoshop, and music running all at once. The screen is sharp and bright, perfect for editing photos or just streaming a show. Battery life has also been a huge plus; I can get through an entire day without hunting for an outlet.
I was a little hesitant at first because of the price, but I can already tell this thing is built to last. It feels solid, the keyboard is super comfortable to type on, and the trackpad is hands-down the best I’ve ever used. If you’re on the fence, I’d say it’s worth it—especially if you need a reliable laptop for both work and fun.

I bought this on sale, but it would’ve been worth full price also. The m4pro has exceptional battery life, recently got 18 hours of use. But 226 hours total hours on standby and use. I make music and do basic computing other than that, it’s been great would highly recommend.
