Review on Apple 27 Inch Retina Desktop MK472LL by Boyan Borissov ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The best thing for the money, I'm glad I chose this option.

I purchased a 16" Proshka in the summer of 20. The screen 16 is still insufficient, but everything is good. found a profitable selling offer and ended their relationship. I then sat on the MacBook Pro 13 on the M1 for a while. The small screen issue has remained despite the fact that the laptop is cool and everything runs smoothly. I started looking for Macs with retina displays. There were about 60 models total. But! There is no keyboard, mouse, or touchpad, therefore a front camera has to be added (they are not in monitors, and zoom is now frequently required for work). Additionally, most monitors' designs are far from ideal. iMac refused to accept, since I was awaiting a replacement on the M1. But March is over, Apple hasn't given any talks, and. The market has established an incredible price for the newer iMac 27 2022 - 127tr variant. Without hesitation, I placed my order. Very happy; never looked back.

Pros
  • Large screen. Almost no monitors of comparable quality are available on the market (the LG 5k ultrafine for 110tr is the closest). Exceptional performance—many claim the m1 vomits Intel. Although I have a more recent model with 256GB and an i5 processor, I don't notice any differences as a regular user of zoom, JIRA, docs, Figma, or Mail on the macbook pro on the m1. Excellent frontal camera (the one on the iMac from 2022 has a significantly poorer frontal camera). Cool sound and microphone make Zoom a pleasure to use for communication. The greatest PC deal for this money is at 127tr.
Cons
  • Since you don't want to use a mouse again after using a laptop, there is no trackpad in the package. separately purchased for 11tr. The keyboard does not have virtual buttons that can substitute different values based on the application, unlike Macbooks with Control Strip. Additionally, it lacks the Touch ID "finger" needed to unlock the display and make transactions. However, there is a workaround: if you own an Apple Watch, you may use it to unlock the screen and make payments. The connectors on the rear require some getting used to, even though there are significantly more than on comparable laptops. Wide frames are mentioned frequently in 2022; after a day of work, you grow accustomed to them and stop noticing them.
