Review on 13-Inch Apple MacBook Pro with 8GB RAM and 512GB SSD Storage in Space Gray - Previous Model by Micha Skolimowski ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent quality, absolutely not expected for such a price.

It's too soon to talk about it, but I genuinely expect this device to be reliable. It will be able to be carried in a backpack and it will be able to survive anything. It will work for 10 years and there will be no scuffs. However, it is still too early to talk about it. Although it spends most of its time at home (I bought it in May, and it is now August), despite the fact that I have only carried it in my backpack a few times, the case already has stripes on it. 2. If we are talking about performance, I have an example that I can offer you. My mom and dad have a PC with an Intel i5 processor and 8 gigabytes of memory at their house. Therefore, the speeds that the MacBook displays when pasting panoramas in Lightroom are approximately the same. It will freeze for 10–30 minutes if it needs more than 5–6 gigabytes of RAM in order to glue, and it will do so. - November 2022. Everything that was said earlier is absolutely correct. The rating of "4" was assigned for some unexplained reason. It unquestionably merits a score of five. The laptop performs well.

Pros
  • 1. Screen - no doubt 2. a low-pitched but generally high-quality sound
Cons
  • 1. An obvious paucity of available USB ports. I purchased an adapter for yusb (the original), but it was damaged (bent in a bag) and I had to replace it. I went all out and bought HDMI-enabled Chinese goods for everything. There are significant issues with it, such as how hot it may get, how the external monitor can be knocked off after prolonged use, and how the external hard drive cannot be seen. In a nutshell, getting anything that is peripheral stuck can be problematic. Perhaps I can locate a store that sells standard adapters. 2. A smaller stature might be advantageous for some people while being disadvantageous for others (November 2022: this is a huge advantage and should not be considered a disadvantage). 3. Ease of use presents several questions. Up and down, the smaller keys. The approach that involves adjusting the volume and the brightness of the screen by using the keys numbered f1 through f12 seems cumbersome to me. The combination of alt and arrow keys is significantly more user-friendly on Linux. The wheel that controls the mouse is turning in the wrong way. And if you make a modification to it in the settings and the trackpad begins moving in the opposite direction, it will be really confusing. I am on the path to being a psychopath; while I am at work, I behave in one way, and when I am at home, I behave in another. 4. Efficiency (in terms of the processor). When it comes to graphics, everything works perfectly. However, once there is even a light load on the processor, it begins to produce a great deal of background noise. Even when going through a collection of photographs in Lightroom. The additional noise is very distracting. 5. Not enough space on the disk. This may be the initial line of criticism regarding the deficiencies. Only forty terabytes of photographs have been taken (one and a half flash drives' worth), Xcode has been installed (it's audacious, but it appears to be pointless), and Lightroom and Photoshop have been run (both of these programs have caches that are measured in gigabytes), and the location has been abandoned. Opa. We have finally arrived. 6. There is a little downside, which is more of a gimmick than anything else: the sound of the keys on the keyboard. In and of itself, it does not appear to be bothersome; but, I would prefer one that is less noisy and free of clicks.
