Review on Apple MacBook 13 Inch 2 3GHz 256GB by Stanislaw Stan Stras ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Quality is top notch, happy with everything.

I use a laptop for half the strength: the Internet, chats, YouTube, writing texts. I am satisfied with the purchase. If you choose high-quality competitors, then they will come out not cheaper, and maybe more expensive. I switched to cloud storages a long time ago (in particular, and Mile) and I don’t use flash drives, I don’t take photos, etc., I’m not fond of things, so there are no problems with ports at all. As the only laptop for work, it is suitable, especially if you need to carry it with you.

Pros
  • The main advantage is the screen: picture quality, pixel density and even screen aspect ratio (16/10). Scaling is very well implemented (especially in safari, the setting goes to each site separately), when you change the scale, the texts do not turn into “soap”, as it happens on laptops with a resolution of 1080. I would compare the comfort of the monitor to the level of a 15-inch Windows laptop , eyes get tired less (almost on all frequently used sites I put + 10-15% to the standard size). The color chosen is silver, dust and scratches are not particularly visible. The battery in typewriter mode holds exactly 10 hours, if you connect the browser to this periodically, then 8 hours, active viewing of videos on YouTube gives 5-6 hours of work. Quiet, I don’t particularly load the laptop, I don’t hear coolers at all. The keyboard is comfortable, very comfortable, the trackpad is also excellent. I really like the vibration feedback technology, I tried the latest pro model after using my Mac, but with the usual pushing the trackpad - not at all. The operating system is not buggy, it happened several times if you did not restart the computer for a month, but this same reboot solved the problem. Recently ated to a new OS with an ated file system, everything got up without problems.
Cons
  • The screen gets dirty quickly. On my knees it is still heated, it is unpleasant to work for a long time. MacOS . I can’t say that I really like it, Windows had its own charms. I think for those who bought a gray model, Kotska and dust will be very visible. Very tight grip of the headphones in the 3.5 jack, really difficult to pull out. I remembered one important drawback. I don’t know for everyone or just for me, but when communicating via Skype or Viber there is a very big delay. I have to use a no longer fresh iPhone 5s. And such a bug for a laptop in 2022 is very strange. The previous one didn't have this problem.
