Review on Apple MacBook 13 Inch 2 3GHz 256GB by Adam Rymko ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

As such, there are no disadvantages, it is convenient to use.

A good laptop for work, which is convenient to take with you. Holds battery well. A big minus is that the keyboard will soon need to be repaired under warranty, as some keys are poorly pressed. As for the 128GB disk, it's enough for my tasks so far, but it looks like I'll have to change it to 256GB soon (the disk upgrade for this model is possible). I think that if you take MBP, then immediately 16GB Ram and 256GB minimum.

Pros
  • I have long wanted to buy, but did not know which model to choose, either to take the MacBook Air or the Pro version. I already had experience using Air for work, and we can say that it is a very convenient tool, light weight, usb and all that. Later I decided and took a MacBook Pro 13 with Retina 8 GB ram and a 128GB disk (without a touchbar). Compared to the Mac Air, it's smaller and lighter, with a Retina screen, a more comfortable trackpad (larger than the Air), and a nicer look. It can also be noted that the sound quality is much better. Perhaps this is all his virtues.
Cons
  • As for the shortcomings, there are a lot of them: 1) Price. Not even the cost of the MacBook itself, but the fact that it will still need to buy a case and an adapter from USB-C to USB. 2) Soft body metal. If you carry without a protective cover, chips or dents may appear (especially along the edges). And no matter how carefully you handle it, it will happen one day, so protection is a must. 3) It is heated. With an average and prolonged load, the processor starts to get very hot, for example, when watching a 1080p movie. 4) Keyboard. Compared to the MacBook Air or older MacBook models that I have used, it was very uncomfortable at first, due to the fact that the keys are more tightly seated, often touching other keys when touch typing. The second is dust and so on. which gets under the keys, because of which they are poorly pressed. 5) Screen and housing Get very dirty, especially the screen. Plus, a weak processor, little memory (it's better to take a model with 16GB).
