    Hate it. Didn't know that it would be so complicated. Should have stuck to Windows.

    I love my new MacBook Pro! I love that you can open the laptop with only one hand. I haven't found another laptop where you can do this. I also like how the screen doesn't wobble/flop around with the slightest movement. It's quite the engineering achievement to be able to open it with one hand, yet have it stiff enough so that it doesn't wobble but stays firmly in place.

    No complaints over here! It's a macbook. I didn't expect anything less. On Best Buy's end, everything was quick and easy and there were no dings on the packaging. I would suggest that if you're not doing anything more than using word and checking emails, go with the 4gig, you don't need the 8gigs of RAM unless you're using it for music software or something like that.

    A bit pricy but probably due to the brand. Perfect for my daughter in college, very light, easy to navigate and most importantly, and why she wanted this brand, it works with her other apple products.

    Bought this to replace my '07 Macbook. SO love this machine. It is way faster than my old one, the clarity is amazing. My husband was so jealous he ended up buying his own three weeks later because I would not share mine with him!

    I love this MacBook Pro! The Force Touch Trackpad is very interesting. I definitely prefer it over the "older" diving board trackpad. The retina display is gorgeous. My previous MBP was non-retina. This computer far exceeds my expectations. And to top it off, I got an amazing deal with my college student discount + tax free weekend (in South Carolina)!

    Wonderful computer for students, or anyone really.

    I bought this computer after owning two PCs over the span of 3-4 years. My previous computer lagged when running anything, the fans were always screaming. When I finally could, I bought the 2015 MacBook Pro rather than the 2016 version. I still wanted the convenience of USB ports and the mag safe charger. The display is still beautiful, and it still runs very smoothly. Startup is lightning fast; at least in comparison to my old laptop. It's a very good laptop for those in high school or in college. It runs all kinds of websites/programs related to study very well. I've had zero problems with it so far. I can actually keep up with the class when working on shared documents or even just getting logged on. The trackpad is also awesome.

    I use this Laptop mostly for recording music with my band and browsing. Awesome quality, controls are smooth, resolution is amazing. Screen size is pretty good for me. Battery lasts a long time, since I use it mostly to watch netflix at work lol. Not really any complaints about this notebook. I'm pretty happy with it :)

    I have always used PCs. I wasn't sure about switching to Apple because I thought it would be really different to use and complicated! Don't let this stop you from buying it! It's easy to use, it has USB 3.0 ports, it has an HDMI port, the retina display looks beautiful, and it's just awesome. I recommend this!

    I LOVE this laptop. I was a Windows user for years and I will NEVER go back. I needed an iPad for work back in 2014 and then I made my phone transfer to Apple, after that, I got the Apple Watch, and now I cannot believe how much I love my Mac! It does everything and more, and it's super fast.

    First Mac

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    First of all, this is my first MacBook ever, and it didn't disappoint me. Comparably to other laptops, it is very slim and aesthetic to look at. The price is not really high considering what is packed inside the MacBook. If you were to filter best buy laptops with similar hardware, chip, etc., other laptops from other brands are priced nearly this price, too. The only disadvantage is that the flash storage is a little too low. The basic flash storage should be upgraded to 256GB instead of merely just 128GB (that's just like the second flash storage option of the iPhone!) Overall, I would recommend people to purchase this.

    First mac ever. It is thin, lightweightfast and smart. It is very convenient when I need to move it from home and the classroom. Meanwhile, bestbuy offered a great price for it. The only concern is that sometimes it become very hot. I think some improvement is still needed on the battery.
