Review on Renewed Apple 13in MacBook Pro with Retina Display and Touch Bar – 3.1GHz Intel Core i5, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD, Space Gray by Mateusz Burzyski ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The quality of the product is at the level, I will recommend this product to my friends.

I switched from mb air 2022 - the difference, of course, is like heaven and earth. Previously, the project was launched in 5 minutes, now in 30 seconds everything is already rising. But due to the low frequency of the processor outside the turbo boost and one instead of two coolers - this macbook should not be loaded heavily and for a long time (or there is a brother version with an improved processor for 110k). It is better to load heavily and not for long. And so everything cool. Happy as an elephant!

Pros
  • Great screen, great for coding Handles performance spikes well (compiling, building, running containers) Fast SSD, almost invisible All other macbook goodies
Cons
  • For a laptop for 85 thousand (minimum equipment) there is one main drawback: an operating frequency of 1.4 GHz with a turbo boost of up to 3.9 and the ONLY cooler. This leads to the fact that with a more or less normal load, the laptop starts to heat up very much and, according to sensations, start the turbine of an intergalactic spacecraft. In my work, the heating can reach up to 85 * (the Mac Fans Control program allows you to reduce the maximum allowable temperature, the insides wear out a lot at this temperature) and I don’t like it at all.
