Great product, a pleasure to use.

In general, I took the device with caution, for 20 years on Windows already. But surprisingly, so far so good. Considering the price of screw analogues, the purchase is more than justified. I, in fact, came to buy a MAC after I set the parameters I needed in the search for the market. I must admit I was very surprised by the results. Keep in mind that the 2022 model and the American one have slightly different keys. For me personally, the American keyboard is more convenient, it has Enter horizontal and you don’t have to reach for it with a protruding little finger. But on the American keyboard, you need to do laser engraving. This is another 1000-1500r, mind you. You can distinguish 2022 by the RU model index. American ME865, 2022 - ME865RU. I do not believe in the 2022 model is cheaper than the official price. There that all inexpensive options are for sure foreigners. I strongly advise you to read a couple of FAQs on the transition from Windows. Removes a lot of questions. In the meantime, remember that changing the keyboard layout is <Comman>-<Space>))

Pros
  • A stunning picture of the Retina (pronounced as retina) display, very nice ergonomics, although unusual after Windows, a lot of pleasant little things that the system does itself. This is not important to some, but purely tactilely the device is made perfectly. Appearance is also on top, it's not a shame to get it in a public place. Very good quality built-in sound card. Today I listened to Logic headphones - the charm is unreal. The combined headphone / microphone jack is a controversial decision, but it suits me completely. Suitable for any wired mobile headset. Powerful speaker. Loud, clear, with an impressive frequency range. Pirated software is almost never protected. Charges quickly and lasts a long time on a single charge. Absolutely quiet. When it downloads a lot of torrents on 8022022ac, it starts to warm up. But still quiet. Tonight I slept 40 centimeters from him, downloading a backup on TimeMachine and did not hear a sound. By the way, 8022022ac is awesome. I have an Asusovskaya access point with this protocol. It operates in the 5GHz band, where there is almost no one and no one bothers to exchange data. The speed is super. The backlit keyboard is another bonus. I lived on a beech with such a keyboard for 2 years and even forgot what it is when it is not there. Horror! In low light without backlight, it is impossible to work even if you are sitting on a blind ten-finger. So here, MAC was at its best.
Cons
  • If you are planning a lot of operating systems or virtual machines, it is better to take a 512GB disk. No VGA or DVI output for older monitors. It is unpleasant. Only HDMI and (apparently) Thunderbot.
