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

Revainrating 5 out of 5

One of the best offers, glad I bought it.

After using an MBP 17 "Mid 2022 prior to that, I moved on to an MBP 13" Retina Late 2022, which was, in my opinion, the model with the greatest flaws. After that, I went a couple of years without a laptop until purchasing this gadget in the beginning of April. I made a conscious decision to go with the model that has the Touch Bar for the following reasons: 1) TouchID; 2) A faster SSD; 3) Additional connectors; 4) The availability of a 512 GB version in Hong Kong (without a touchbar, and only for special order); On the other hand, I have not "tasted" the Touch Bar itself, which is a relatively useless feature if you are already familiar with all of the hotkeys. Why didn't I take 15 "? Because I need something smaller, and the performance I currently have is adequate. The absence of a USB-A port was not included in the list of drawbacks for the following reason: if you had already purchased this laptop, you knew what you were doing and understood that there would be times when you would need to use an adapter (although this does not cause much inconvenience) or purchase the same flash drive as before but with a double connector. I liked the laptop in general, but I preferred the older version of the memory. It's unfortunate that they did not produce a MagSafe 3 that was the same size as USB-C. In general, I enjoyed the laptop. It is recommended that people who use Apple Watch and do not want additional ports or memory go with the version of the MacBook Pro that does not include a touch bar. P. Best of luck to everyone who believes that it is smarter to get Xiaomi since it is "2 times better and 2 times cheaper," but as for me, I'm not interested in going in this direction. However, I will not dispute because there are so many people and so many different perspectives. Make logical decisions, and enjoy the fruits of your labor.

Pros
  • — Lightweight, compact, and user-friendly in general; — High-quality display; — Excellent value for the money. Trackpad, it's just a work of art; - Good performance for such a compact gadget; - Beautiful design of the item overall. a layout that doesn't make you want to throw up or scratch out your eyes; — The sound quality is really superb; - In contrast to other products, you won't need crutches or a tambourine to start using it as soon as you take it out of the packaging; - Convenient for people who already use Apple products and services.
Cons
  • The card reader was removed for no reason; the color Space Gray is fairly easily soiled, so either wash your hands more frequently or wipe the laptop more often, or invest in a silver model. Oh yeah, the chips on the sides are much more obvious; - The battery life is still not particularly impressive. 6-6.5 hours of record time (with work done continuously, of course). I don't think there is anything else that comes to mind.
