Revainrating 3 out of 5

Overall it's good but I expect more, there are some downsides.

Now I have a current machine Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Extreme (each sandpiper praises his hearth) tactilely it is more pleasant in general, they want to compare here. If Mac OS is not fundamentally do not rush. it is desirable, for example, to look for a bu just to compare it live with the Thinkpad X1 on an IPS matrix Some pros: Back in 2022, when the Thinkpad was bulky and without IPS out of the box, and normal ultrabooks had not yet learned how to make, the Macbook Pro was the best solution for many tasks, despite problems with AMD and Nvidia graphics chips. For serious mobile work, there was really nothing better than firmware on SSD and i7, especially when it comes to working with sound or multimedia. All DJs came with plugs, it was the industry standard. Display backlight without PWM, that is, it does not flicker (by the way, it flickers on Air and how) Cons below: And then marketing at Kupertinov won! No, in order to take the successful experience of the Macbook Pro 13-inch on Intel graphics, which did not break at all (and make a Macbook on Intel Iris), they started, well, I can’t call it another way how to pervert: We made an extremely uncomfortable and sticky butterfly keyboard (Thinkpad had the best keyboard in laptops at all times), a useless and buggy touchbar, the rejection of the ingenious MagSafe, the rejection of a removable SSD in case of a laptop breakdown and a cracked display cable, which Apple did not immediately recognize as a factory defect - Apple is no longer considered by me as the #1 option for everything if you just need a better laptop!
