Customers are saying

Customers regard the MacBook Pro 16" as a high-performance laptop with excellent battery life and a stunning screen. Many appreciate its ease of use and sleek design, along with the inclusion of useful ports and ample RAM. However, some find the weight to be a significant drawback, and the price point is considered high by some users. While opinions on the Touch Bar's absence are divided, most appreciate the improved cooling system resulting in less fan noise and heat.

    Great product, I got the larger one after getting the 14" because I just like a larger screen for video editing. Still fits in my bag so I'm happy.

    This laptop is all I ever wanted in a Mac. I love it. It's fast, simple and easy to navigate. It's truly a powerful machine.

    A great upgrade to my 8 year old Mac Book Pro. M1 chip makes this one of the best laptops on the market. I'm still testing the capabilities, and so far very impressed.

    State-of-the-art iMac Pro laptop

    Sleek and stylish plus light weight. Colors are very vivid and really pop! Glad I ordered the larger laptop. Can’t go wrong with an iMac Pro cause my decision to purchase it was became my old iMac has had no problems in over 15 years—just couldn’t be upgraded any longer. No brained—buy quality that has proven itself—buy iMac!!!

    It is a great laptop with one of the biggest screens available. Apple is obviously "listening" because they put the SD and HDMI ports back in. They also got rid of the touch strip and put the F keys back in with dedicated brightness and volume keys (with one touch mute) which simplifies life. My only complaint is the edge of the main surface is slightly sharp-edged which makes it uncomfortable where you naturally rest your palms.

    It's my daily driver. I've been very productive. This is exactly what I needed for now. I think I should've gone for the 32 GB Memory for my line of work but I might trade this machine in when the M2 comes out. Nonetheless, no buyer's remorse. Very good purchase! Excellent laptop, strong battery life, excellent features that come along with being in the apple ecosystem (this is someone who has been primarily a Window/Linux/Android user).

    best macbook pro i've ever owned !

    These new all-Apple silicon based mac's really perform well. As a photographer, the adobe apps optimized for the apple silicon based macs work much smoother than the previous intel-based macs. I love the portability of the 14" macbooks, however i prefer the 16" screen to do my editing despite the larger/heavier body. Having had the previous 16" intel macbook pro, I'm used to it. The screen with ProMotion refresh rate is the best i've ever seen on any machine I've used.

    I had the 2019 intel MacBook Pro and really enjoyed it but stepped up to the M1 MacBook Pro and love it more! Feels like a legit upgrade I couldn’t be happier.

    No more PCs for me

    This MacBook replaced a 10 year old PC. I was nervous about making the transition. However, my fears were unfounded. This is a powerful, smooth working machine. The larger screen enables me to more easily monitor multiple programs and windows. I was also able to use it for two days on battery power alone, something my PC was never able to do. And the Best Buy associate’s help and explanation made the process easy.

    My wife’s water bottle tipped over onto my 16” MacBook Pro and destroyed it in an instant. I immediately ordered a new 16” M1 MacBook Pro, 64GB 2TB, but the estimated delivery is out 2 months. How many of us can go 2 months without work? I only bought this to get me by until my fully optioned M1 MacBook Pro is delivered for my work. Being only the base model, it can’t do what I need, but it will have to do until mine comes. Hopefully soon!

    It is fast, has the best screen and speakers by far in a laptop right now, a great new webcam and the ports and great keyboard have returned. It STILL has issues that need to be addressed with software updates before I can say it is great... My Magsafe charging still does not work when the device is turned off, so you better have a spare USB-C cable handy if the battery goes to zero. Wide and ultra-wide monitors do not work in many situations, so you need to install something like "BetterDummy" to get additional screen resolutions. Also, battery life is above average, but only if you keep screen brightness around 50%. WiFi 5 is actually slower than my Intel MacBook, so I also had to go out and buy a brand-new WiFi 6 router in order to get the fast internet speeds I was used to.
