Review on 13-Inch Apple MacBook Pro with 8GB RAM and 512GB SSD Storage in Space Gray - Previous Model by Mateusz Zjc ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good quality product, the price is commensurate with the quality.

I use it as a typewriter for study and work. it’s important for me that there is a good screen and good enough autonomy so that I don’t have to think about where to charge my laptop all day (and I definitely won’t carry a charger from it every day) + recharge my phone from it once. I don’t play games, I don’t edit videos, I don’t professionally process photos. I have no doubt that under my requests you can find a Windows laptop much cheaper, but I bought a mac and I don’t regret anything. it was a reasonable price to pay for a quality OS, for a solid-looking, well-performing laptop that I'm sure will last for years. I don’t want to specifically note anything about usb-c ports separately, everything is also subjective here. I didn’t bother to buy a small adapter so that I could connect a phone / USB flash drive / removable hard drive to it. everything else happens over the air.

Pros
  • - screen. bright, contrast, colors amazingly conveys. it is a pleasure to read on it, in general, the eyes do not get tired - weight. Easy to take with you absolutely everywhere. - battery life. study all day long in the mode of recording lectures, reading books and surfing the Internet, and in the evening for the remaining 40% to watch 2-3 episodes of the series. - MacOS. brakes? no, haven't heard. everything is fast, clear, no complaints. - the quality of the laptop itself. just perfect. it is so neatly made, and everything is clearly fitted, which causes aesthetic pleasure from its use. - touchpad. large and very comfortable. what is a mouse - you forget instantly. - sound. he does not need speakers, everything is heard perfectly, even in fairly quiet videos, the sound reserve is enough. the sound is rich enough for a laptop, but it’s not worth comparing with a good speaker, of course (and this will never occur to anyone in their right mind) - backlit keyboard. I am very pleased that the diode illuminates the key in the center, and not around. very comfortable in low light conditions.
Cons
  • everything is subjective here, and by and large these are not shortcomings, just minor inconveniences that I personally experienced, but not the fact that anyone else will have: - keyboard. yes, it is infinitely comfortable, the key travel is small, typing on it is fast and easy. but she is very loud. no matter how hard I try to press the keys softer, the clicks are still quite loud. - weight. yes, it is quite small, the macbook itself is very compact and fits into a bag / backpack, but it would be absolutely ideal if we subtract another 200-300 grams from its weight. - space gray is quite easily soiled. no matter how you wipe this case, in a few hours it will again have fingerprints. - two ports. 4 in the model with a touchbar, but I still did not dare to overpay 20k for it. and sometimes you need to connect two flash drives at the same time, respectively, you can’t put it on charge. but this is a very small inconvenience, rarely encountered in everyday life.
