Review on π₯οΈ Renewed Apple 15-inch MacBook Pro, Retina, Touch Bar, 2.9GHz Intel Core i7 Quad Core, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD, MPTT2LL/A - Space Gray by Adam Trela α
There are pros and cons, think before buying.
9. The keyboard is easily soiled to some indecent degree. Maybe, of course, I have such oily skin, but in order for there to be no marks on the keys at all, it is necessary that the hands be perfectly clean. I constantly go to wash my hands and keep dry wipes nearby, and I wipe, wipe, wipe all the time. Otherwise, a greasy fingerprint remains on the key, which is not only noticeable, it catches the eye - as if I had dipped my finger into oil. Somehow I have never encountered such a problem on any of the laptops. I could write one more thing - about the fact that at first the laptop was all so monolithic, cold and silent, but after a week it began to become more crispy every day when you take it in your hands, warm and noisy. About the fact that there is no regular rar archiver with a password, which is important to me. And a lot more about that, but the letters and time are over. I bought and have been using it since November 10, i. E. a little over a month. I use it actively, from morning to evening I work on it. Never had or used poppies and their OS before. I bought to replace the HP Elitebook 840 G1, which has been in operation since the beginning of 2022. I was set up very positively before buying, but you canβt name impressions other than disappointment. I understand that I will probably hurt the feelings of many with this review, but these are my impressions - I am extremely surprised that, as it turned out, macbooks are a rather average device in quality, and makos is a buggy and braking system in which, with a frequency of about 1 -3 times an hour every hour some kind of problem constantly climbs out. As a rule, the problem is small (like a cursor, for example), but is this what you expect when you buy a laptop for 140krub? And I'm not doing video editing or any other performance-demanding tasks on it. All that I have open is 2-5 Excel documents, 2-3 Word documents, Opera with 10-12 tabs and iTunes. Still sometimes google chrome, powerpoint and guitarpro. Personally, I bought a poppy for the first and last time.
- 1. Screen; 2. Convenient gestures on the touchpad; 3. Touchbar - looks great, easy to use; 4. Battery life so far makes me happy. Next come the shortcomings, tk. they do not fit into the "flaws" field: 1. On the very first day after unpacking from the box, he suggested that I ate, downloaded something there for 3 hours and in the end could not ate, wrote that it was a mistake. I googled some solution, downloaded again for 3 hours, but it did not help me, in the end I had to call support. 2. The cursor regularly "forgets" to change to the context view. That is, for example, the usual situation - if you bring the cursor to the text, it turns into a vertical line, if to a link, then into a brush with an outstretched index finger, and there are also arrows and, for example, crosses in Excel. Yes, and a host of others. In Windows, I somehow got used to the fact that when you crossed the border of the context zone with the cursor and literally climbed one pixel where the index finger should be, the cursor changes instantly, without delay at all. In makosi, it can not only change with delays, it regularly, several times an hour does not change at all. It seems that this is a trifle, but this trifle, firstly, wildly infuriates when you work on a brand new laptop for 140krub, and secondly, when working intensively in Excel, for example, it is simply inconvenient, because. there much depends on a current type of the cursor. 3. That's just - right now in iTunes (now it's "music") the ability to listen to albums has disappeared. You select an album, go into it, press the "play" button, which is above the entire list of songs and starts all the songs in turn - the first song is played and playback stops. I tried it on several artists and albums - it's the same everywhere. But jokes like this, and especially in iTunes, a few things happen a day for sure. I am writing about this because it happened right now. 4. The notorious problem with the keyboard appeared after 3 weeks - there were problems with pressing "8". Sometimes everything is ok, sometimes it doesn't work.
- 5. Always, 100% of the time I use it, I don't feel at all that this is a new and powerful laptop - everything in it happens with some kind of micro-pause. Periodically, about once every few hours, it starts to directly specifically slow down, i. E. he responds to each action in 1-2 seconds. In the same way, my laptop worked badly, to replace which I bought this poppy, on which the same Windows 7 has been running for 4.5 years. 6. Especially powerful delays when working with Excel. There, in general, you need to get used to the fact that he always responds to any action at least somewhere in 0.5 seconds, even more. And sometimes much longer. For example, you enter a number in a cell, look in another where the amount should be recalculated, and nothing happened there. You look in the first cell - did you really enter a number at all, yes, you did, you start to climb into the formula of the second cell, bring the cursor up - bam! counted! 7. I will single out as a separate problem, although this is probably the same as item 5 and item 6 - I did not find any smoothness of makosi, about which everyone talks so much. Yes, there are numerous handy touchpad gestures (which I really like), I have mastered and use them all. But nothing here happens smoothly, everything is either with very small jerks, or with such specific jerks that sometimes you think - well, everything, now itβs definitely frozen. 8. Wi-Fi problems - this is just a giant problem. He constantly loses the network and does not want to connect, or he connected, but there is no Internet, or he writes at all - the password does not fit, but then he will connect with the same password. You might think that the problem is in the router that Beeline delivered to me for free, but all other devices work fine. And most importantly, my wife has Mac Air 2022 and for two years now she has been constantly complaining that her home Internet practically does not work for her. I ignored these complaints all these two years, I thought that she had something (everything is ok with me), but now I have a poppy and exactly the same problems. At the same time, when I distribute mobile Internet from my phone, everything works.
