Revainrating 4 out of 5

A practical product, nothing to complain about.

To summarize very briefly a year and a half of my use of this laptop, it is incredibly pleasant and convenient in everyday use, especially in the apple ecosystem, but obviously not for everyone for professional activities. Everything about surfing the web, watching movies, writing text, editing photos and writing music is an ideal device, but if your range of activities goes beyond all of the above, then I'm afraid you should look at the more expensive 15-inch versions with more powerful iron…

Pros
  • An extremely pleasant operating system to use, an incredibly comfortable trackpad, a second-generation butterfly keyboard, a high-resolution monitor that supports p3 color gamut, competent integration into the apple product ecosystem, speaker sound, appearance, pleasant to the touch body material. In general, the user interaction with the device is excellent.
Cons
  • For almost a year and a half of use, a very large number of keys have sunk, the case material is very easily soiled in space gray color, the performance is definitely not enough for professional activities. In general, the price / performance ratio is not the best, for many it will be more rational to build a Windows PC.

Quite good, but I expected more from it.

I bought this model after Macbook Pro 15 Late 2022. First of all, I needed portability and lightness, as well as autonomy. Imagine my surprise that the Macbook Pro 13 with the Touchbar holds the charge the worst of the entire current line. It comes to the point of absurdity, sometimes even 4 hours is not enough under heavy load, sometimes even 2-3 RDP / VNC sessions are enough to drain the battery in 2-3 hours. Saves only Powerbank with Power Delivery support. 8Gb RAM is not enough, it's a…

Pros
  • - Beautiful screen, after Macbook Pro 15 Late 2022 you can really feel the difference in brightness and color accuracy - The body is completely metal, the hinge is also metal - Huge touchpad that completely replaces the mouse - Touch ID, pay with Apple Pay and unlock the poppy when there is no Apple Watch is very convenient - Very fast SSD. Nearly 3000 Mb/s read and 1800 Mb/s write - 4 Thunderbolt 3 ports, each universal - Fast charging compared to my previous Macbook Pro 15
Cons
  • - Low performance. Unfortunately, Apple did not decide to import custom versions into the 2022, so you have to be content with a 2-core Intel Core i5 and 8Gb RAM - RAM is still LPDDR3 standard - Very small and dead battery - The touchbar is mostly useless, so the Escape key was also moved to it - The Butterfly 2 keyboard is a complete bottom, it makes noise like mechanics, but there is no tactile feedback + the key travel is minimal. After 2-3 hours of typing, my hands hurt. The scissors were much better. - Not friendly with Bootcamp, either drivers are crooked or it's Microsoft's cant, but the screen in Windows can independently change brightness every minute, and Wi-Fi falls off the modem on the iPhone. Reinstalling drivers and Windows did not solve the problems

Quality is top notch, happy with everything.

I use a laptop for half the strength: the Internet, chats, YouTube, writing texts. I am satisfied with the purchase. If you choose high-quality competitors, then they will come out not cheaper, and maybe more expensive. I switched to cloud storages a long time ago (in particular, and Mile) and I don’t use flash drives, I don’t take photos, etc., I’m not fond of things, so there are no problems with ports at all. As the only laptop for work, it is suitable, especially if you need to carry it…

Pros
  • The main advantage is the screen: picture quality, pixel density and even screen aspect ratio (16/10). Scaling is very well implemented (especially in safari, the setting goes to each site separately), when you change the scale, the texts do not turn into “soap”, as it happens on laptops with a resolution of 1080. I would compare the comfort of the monitor to the level of a 15-inch Windows laptop , eyes get tired less (almost on all frequently used sites I put + 10-15% to the standard size). The color chosen is silver, dust and scratches are not particularly visible. The battery in typewriter mode holds exactly 10 hours, if you connect the browser to this periodically, then 8 hours, active viewing of videos on YouTube gives 5-6 hours of work. Quiet, I don’t particularly load the laptop, I don’t hear coolers at all. The keyboard is comfortable, very comfortable, the trackpad is also excellent. I really like the vibration feedback technology, I tried the latest pro model after using my Mac, but with the usual pushing the trackpad - not at all. The operating system is not buggy, it happened several times if you did not restart the computer for a month, but this same reboot solved the problem. Recently ated to a new OS with an ated file system, everything got up without problems.
Cons
  • The screen gets dirty quickly. On my knees it is still heated, it is unpleasant to work for a long time. MacOS . I can’t say that I really like it, Windows had its own charms. I think for those who bought a gray model, Kotska and dust will be very visible. Very tight grip of the headphones in the 3.5 jack, really difficult to pull out. I remembered one important drawback. I don’t know for everyone or just for me, but when communicating via Skype or Viber there is a very big delay. I have to use a no longer fresh iPhone 5s. And such a bug for a laptop in 2022 is very strange. The previous one didn't have this problem.

If you are ready to carry a compressed air tank - an excellent choice . After 3 years of use 1) Sticky keys progress, more and more letters on the keyboard are pressed 2 times. 2) There were problems with the flexgate screen cable, but, despite the expired warranty, they replaced this problem under the apple support program (4 years from the date of purchase). Perhaps by the end of these 4 years I will also turn to the keyboard, there is also a program. 3) At the moment it works fine, but…

Pros
  • Excellent screen, good speakers, powerful enough, small. Completely useless, but interesting Touch Bar.
Cons
  • Once every couple of months, the 2022 t jams and you have to blow it with compressed air - nothing can be done about it. After almost a year, half of the touchbar panel has ceased to be displayed, although it works. Really dead battery - especially felt after a year of use.

Yesterday I bought a device, today I ran for a usb type-c - usb adapter (25 euros). Took in Europe for 1100€ (1400-24% invoice). In general, after a laptop on Windows, I'm happy as an elephant. Of the obvious shortcomings, for me personally, this is the heating of the case in the upper part of the keyboard, as well as the prices for accessories and programs, because a docking station for $ 400 and a Pdf reader for 3k is somehow too much. It turns out that the laptop costs not 1500, but all…

Pros
  • Mac OS (programs and applications are very convenient and beautiful), build quality, screen, speakers
Cons
  • No

For a long time I chose a laptop for study and other household chores. I wanted more or less fresh hardware with a good screen. I reviewed a lot of laptops, after asking around my friends with the experience of using MacBooks, I decided to make a choice in his favor. As long as everyone likes it. Pros below: 1. The screen is bright, high resolution, good colors. 2. Large touchpad with gesture support 3. Smooth operation Macos despite mediocre hardware. 4. Excellent appearance With its cons: 1…

The 7th generation Core processor, the best display and sound on the market, a comfortable keyboard, good software optimization and energy efficiency, traditionally excellent build quality - this is about the new MBP Mid 2022. The old believers will choose the MBP 2022 and will be right in their own way, but I chose the latest . Only the presence of only 2 USB-C ports is upsetting, but this is solved by purchasing a hub. Great laptop, I took it for coding, amateur photography and office work.

Pros
  • Mac OS X, display, sound, build quality and materials, hardware
Cons
  • Until I discovered

I really like the product, it fully meets my expectations.

Highly recommend. If it is not possible, take air, if there is, take 13-ku. After 13 matches, air seems to be a rarity in every sense. The new Mac is for the soul. Different pros: This is a solid piece of dignity. I get great pleasure from work. I like everything. Before him, he worked on 17-ke, then on Air. The only thing that I didn’t really like after Air is less battery life and more soiled. I didn’t worry about Air, it is perceived as a budget and working model. But with the new 13th it is

A laptop is better than a Macbook - no. By purchasing it, you will get stability, quality and speed of your actions even on non-top-end hardware. In short - take With its pros: macos, screen, touchpad, keyboard, usb c, case color, etc. (all that is there are pluses, there is nothing that would cause dissatisfaction when used). Some cons: Not durable, the screen is slightly pressed through, but this is due to the fact that the poppy itself is very light and thin. And one more thing: it gets very

Matches the description completely, very satisfied.

Before buying, I thought for a long time: is it worth taking a poppy or taking a good powerful pseudo-gaming laptop on Windows for this money. As a result, I took a poppy, and I have never regretted it. Now I turn on my stationary computer a maximum of once a month, because after the macos, Windows seems to be already slow and uncomfortable echo of the past. How it behaves in games - I have no idea: I perfectly understood that this laptop is not for games (only a hearthstone is installed). He…

Pros
  • Appearance Gorgeous screen Nice keyboard Battery Life Divine sound from the speakers (relative to laptops from other manufacturers) Good performance Ease of use
Cons
  • Heats up under high loads

Switched to it from an Early 2022 MacBook Pro that I had for a month and only bought it to see if it was worth it. Before him, there was a stationary PC on which he personally installed a hackintosh. The system on a stationary PC pleased with stability, smoothness (the specifications were as follows: i5-2500, HD7950, 16gb 1333, 128 ssd + 1tb hdd). Why I took the model without the chach bar: first, the chach bar is just a toy, it’s not convenient for me. The second is the possibility of…

Pros
  • Almost everything. - Gorgeous display, I could not even imagine how convenient it would be to work with Guitar Pro 6, at 13 inches, but excellent resolution. -Sound. To say that this is a good sound for a laptop is to say nothing. I heard sound from various laptops, but here the speakers are of such high quality and correctly located that the effect of good 2.0 acoustics is achieved, only a small subwoofer is missing, but these are already trifles. -Keyboard. They say it's too loud, I can't argue, but for me it's not a minus and not a plus, but the convenience of printing is great! - Build quality is awesome. -Acb - holds as promised, when watching a video for about 10 hours (I watch 720p, not online, and besides, I don’t see much point in loading 1080p and more, at 13 inches and 720 is enough for my eyes).
Cons
  • Of course, there are disadvantages. The most important is maintainability. Here you can’t remove the RAM, the processor . You can’t really remove anything. Also minus is the number of USB Type C ports. I don’t understand why it was impossible to put 4 ports in the version without a chach bar. I personally don’t need a chach bar at all, it’s just a toy. But 4 ports would be great.

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).

Apple's first computer. Not a direct fan, but after this poppy I suffered . I was afraid of the OS, but I got used to it in just a couple of days. Although I don’t do any serious things on it. It works smartly, but sometimes safari lags on starting the video. Battery life is good, screen is great. I like Apple integration chips: you can answer an iPhone call from a poppy in another room, answer an imessage message immediately from a poppy, convenient integration via icloud: download a document…

Pros
  • Build quality, materials, screen, battery life, simplicity and convenience of the OS, push-through touchpad with word translation function, integration with other Apple devices
Cons
  • Only two type c inputs + headphone input and that's it! It's too small((price, safari sometimes lags

I thought it would be better, but overall not bad.

This is where the fairy tale ends. We wish you to get the perfect product from the eminent Apple company. But we get the dubious quality of modern solutions. In pursuit of 1 mm thickness, the screen was exposed to the keyboard. Pros: This is my first mac and at the start I was more than happy with it. The technique is close to ideal, modern solutions. Reviews of eminent video bloggers with the words “recommend” beckoned to this device. With its cons: The music didn't last long. Periodic…

It was a bad idea to buy it, the money was wasted.

. stuck left option. the second time you need to take it to the SC. Hello Apple! Are you hanging out there? :/ This is my first macbook, bought for apple programming. Keyboard: PPC, the beech is on the table, I never eat behind it, I blow off dust particles, but no! all the same, micro-crumbs are taken from somewhere, clogged under the buttons, and the buttons periodically get kapets. They do not press, they stick, which Apple advises . Just blow it with a can of air. Thanks, that's exactly…

Pros
  • - appearance, - screen, - productive
Cons
  • - BATTERY, - KEYBOARD, - voracious

Yes, this laptop does not have the most sophisticated stuffing. It's a laptop for everything, though. On it, even 4k videos from an iPhone can be easily mounted. Photoshop easily handles 40MP photos. There have never been any brakes, unlike ordinary laptops with the same parameters, where everything constantly crashes and slows down. I've been working with him for over half a year now. No complaints.

Pros
  • Compared to other laptops on the market, this is just a godsend! Thin, monolithic, amazing screen, amazing performance, excellent sound, enough charge for 12 hours of work in Word, compact and sturdy body. Touchpad. No - TOUCHPAD! It's amazingly comfortable. I want to use them all the time!
Cons
  • They simply do not exist, except for the price.

The quality exceeds all expectations, I recommend to buy.

So, before that I used MBP 17 "Mid 2022, then MBP 13" Retina Late 2022 (the most unfortunate model, in my opinion), then I spent a couple of years without a laptop and bought this device in early April. I deliberately took the version with the Touch Bar for the following reasons: 1) TouchID; 2) Faster SSD; 3) More ports; 4) Availability of a 512 GB version in Hong Kong (without a touchbar, only on order); However, I have not "tasted" the Touch Bar itself: a relatively useless thing if you type…

Pros
  • - Excellent screen; — Small weight, compactness and general convenience; — Trackpad, it's just gorgeous; - Good performance for such a small device; - A design that does not make you want to cry or gouge out your eyes; — The sound is just wonderful; - You can use it out of the box without crutches and dancing with a tambourine, unlike some brands; - Convenient for those who are in the Apple ecosystem.
Cons
  • - MagSafe was still more convenient; - The card reader was removed in vain; - The Space Gray color is quite easily soiled, so either wash your hands / wipe the laptop more often, or buy a silver one. Oh yes, the chips on the edges are more noticeable; - The battery life still does not shine. 6-6.5 hours record (continuous work, of course). I probably can't name anything else.

Pros: The screen is on top (meaning picture quality and brightness). Performance - no words. On my old laptop, AutoCAD started for 5-7 minutes, I could have time to drink tea. Here everything happens in 5-10 seconds. The battery holds awesome. Hours 10 in the mode of constant use of the browser With its cons: The screen is very dirty. My skin is quite oily, and therefore the fat that remains on the keys has time to be imprinted on the screen in squares overnight. Well, this screen is surprising
