    Decided to upgrade from my MacBook Pro... Very glad I chose this!

    Decided to upgrade from my MacBook Pro... Very glad I chose this!
    This laptop was heavily discounted on cyber Monday and I scooped it up without thinking twice. I’m so glad I did (A brand new, 2019 Macbook was almost 300 dollars cheaper here than from Apple, thanks Amazon!) I have owned lots of Apple products and this laptop is my newest addition. As a MacBook Pro user previously, I was afraid I would miss all of the ports, SD card slot, etc. The thunderbolt ports on this help keep it thin and very lightweight, and it SO easy to hold without sacrificing screen size. I travel next week for the holidays and I’m sure my back will thank me for not lugging around a heavy laptop anymore.Let’s talk about features. Coming from a 10 year old MacBook Pro that I also really loved, I am enjoying the new butterfly keyboard as well as the retina screen. The display is beautiful and makes watching videos or even just browsing a wonderful experience. I would imagine photo editing or video editing is also improved although I rarely do those things. I had a MagSafe charger on my old Mac that I loved and while I admit I do kind of miss that, I understand that to keep the profile thin, Apple had to go with a smaller USB-C charging port. The Touch ID is also a nice feature, and it is fast. I can also unlock my Mac with my Apple Watch which saves even more time. Not necessary, but definitely a convenient feature. I also appreciate the color choices; I went for gold to match my phone and watch and all of them are just beautiful. I enjoy that it stands out from the traditional black or silver laptops you see everywhere else.Battery life is awesome. I’m getting 12 hours on one charge with heavy use. The computer is fast and responsive, and really just a huge upgrade from what I was using. This makes my old MacBook Pro feel like a dinosaur :)Overall, I feel that at Amazon’s price point I got an excellent deal on this laptop. It is perfect for my needs and would be great for a student, someone who travels often, etc. I would recommend if the lack of ports really bother you, there are several dongles here on Amazon for ~$10-$15 that have all the ports you need. I would much rather do that than carry around a heavy laptop 24/7, but I know that is a personal preference.Would I buy this laptop full price from Apple? Probably not, which is why I stuck with my old laptop for the last 10 years. But if you can catch a good deal here, this device is well worth the price and a wonderful upgrade.
