Apple 15.4 MacBook Pro with Touch Bar (Mid 2018, Space Gray)
Like my old 17 better
I like this, but I dont love it. In an effort to make everything better, I think they have gone too far. I guess Ill get used to it. I hate that I the track pad acts of its own accord sometimes... I have my thumb over it, not touching it, and it changes the screen. If you learned to type rather than hunt and peck, your left thumb if over the pad... not good. I dont like that I cant put a CD in it either or that I have to buy new plugs for it and ... Show More

Nice Machine
Purchased this machine on a special Black Friday deal with B&H. Specs: 2.9 GHz i9 CPU with 32GB RAM and 2TB drive. Came with High Sierra. Had to upgrade to Mohave 10.14.1 to migrate from old machine at same software level. Machine initially ran very hot (fans constantly on) with temperatures and frequencies similar to those found with throttling issues for this machine back in High Sierra. Upgraded to 10.14.2 and the machine settled down. Do a bu... Show More

Great laptop
Great Mac laptop for a fair price! Shipping was fast and required a signature. Really appreciate the quality products and service from B&H.

Love it
This laptop is a top notch! Though I still try to adapt to Mac from Windows, the MBP is really awesome!

Superb
This is a vast improvement over my old computer, providing me with an esthetically pleasing, sleek device capable of eclipsing any and all competitors in terms of speed, capacity, and ease of use. Its durable and versatile -- and it scorches. The criticisms Ive read seem childish and petty, and Im happy to say that Ive found them to be baseless besides. And btw: B&H is excellent - swift delivery, great selection, knowledgeable support, and more than reasonable prices. You get what you pay for, and in this case, thats satisfaction. Bravo.

B&H did a perfect job delivering a 2018 MacBook Pro
B&H is great. Great price discount when Apple was not offering a Black Friday deal. I was replacing a 2010 MBPro running El Capitan so there is great aggravation moving from a USB 2 to a USB c machine. You need to buy dongles to attach your external gear. The biggest nightmare is trying to synch a Dell Ultrasharp 24 inch screen that worked perfectly with the 2010 MBPro to this new operating system. Still a struggle. Each time it recovers from a s...

Bad customer service
Ordered laptop during cyber Monday. Instead of getting expedited shipping as advertised, they shipped it standard. Emailed customer service with no response. Delivery requires signature. Projected to be delivered by FedEx on 11/30/18 but now theres no delivery update. I dont have time to stay home all day waiting for it on the weekend. Could have been avoided if product was shipped via expedited shipping as advertised.

Dont buy the i9 buy this midtier beast
I do heavy coding and editing and this mac is by far the fastest one in its race. With a multicore score of 22157 (tested) this is close to the 22500 multiscore for the i9 version. Yea i9 thermals are bad so buy this version. No issues so far runs big tasks smoothly. Thanks to B&H for making this 400$ off on cyber monday

Expensive but fast delivery
First time using Apple MacBook Pro, price here is hundred more cheaper than store even educational price. Delivery is fast as expected and well conditioned. Although the price is much much more expensive than 13 or older version, the 15 experience is great and wish to use over ten years!

Happy with computer but resent the lack of USB adapter
All I can say is that this computer fits all my needs for the moment. I was worried about the keyboard before I got the computer, but I find it very comfortable and fast. I only wish that Apple had included an adapter for the USB port because I had to go and buy one, since the ports are different from earlier Mac books. Cheap behavior on the part of Apple.

2.2 ghz 32gb 512gb 555x review
Good performance, specially using lightroom, doing android development. Can do heavy development because of 32gb memory. True tone display is useful at home. Keyboard is better and bumpier than previous version that I use as my office laptop. GPU could have been faster / could have come preinstalled with Mojave. So, taking off one point. Else, a really solid, stable machine so far.

Outstanding Machine
I use the machine mainly for software development and Im glad I went with the i9. This thing plows through everything. When I was setting it up I used the Intel Power Gadget to check out the temps and how the processor was running, and I think the processor is a work of art. It likes to hang out in the high 3s and low 4s (about 3.8 GHz to 4.3 GHz) using about 30% of the cores available at around 90 degrees. I installed Xcode and Android studio an... Show More

Wonderful Machine
I had to get used to the touchbar, and I am still getting used to it. It is really useful part of the computer. I havent been able to see the speed of it, because I really dont have a power hogging App to use with it. The keyboard is different than my Old Mac book Pro. I am still getting used to the touch. The sound is better, and even more robust. I like the weight of the computer too. It is a big change in design in the last several years. I had a Mid 2015, and in almost 3 years you can see the changes in this model.

Lots of noise, right decision
Coming from a i7 2014 MBP, I could not see buying another i7. The 2014 is still working like new, just a little slow. The i9 is a work horse teamed up with FCPX. Sad about the price but if its still good in 2025 I will be happy.

Poor Design
Apple has decided to change the power connection to the computer from a magnetized connection to a hard plug in connection. The magnetized connection was much easier to use and if youre a klutz like me and trip over your cord, it would not take the computer with it! Also, there is 10 along the side panel of the keyboard for plug in connections, including power connection. Apple has chosen to place those connections within a fraction of a centimet... Show More

Very Poor Design!
First of all they changed from having a magnetized power connection to a small, hard to plugin connection. Magnetized was much easier to plug in and out, and if youre a klutz like me and trip over your power cord it would unplug without taking the computer with it! Also theirs 10 of area along the side of the keyboard for plug in ports, including power. Apple has chosen to put the ports within a fraction of a centimeter next to each out. You need... Show More

Creative workhorse
I grabbed this laptop to handle some basic video editing in the field and so far it has not disappointed me at all. Lightweight, super fast, and impressive color and sound. The pressure sensitive touch pad take a little while to get used to (it can be frustrating just trying to move a doc to the trash). The biggest downside in this laptop has to be the USB 3 ports (4 in total). Kind of a pain to need dongles for almost everything. At least Mac was nice enough to keep the headphone jack though.

Gets very hot and recycles without warning.
This 2018 2.2 gh MacBook pro will shutdown and when it cools down some it will restart. I havent lost any work yet - but for a $2849 machine, it ought to stay running.

This machine is lightning fast
I love my new macbook. The USB-C technology is super fast, I can plug my charger into any port and it charges. The chipset and 32gb of ram are incredibly quick, and this thing shreds video like butter. Loving it.

A Great laptop married to a great user experience
Having come from a Dell Precision M5510, and a long legacy of Windows machines, I have to say, this is probably the best laptop Ive ever worked on. The build quality is superb - there are simply no Windows machines capable of matching Apples expertise when it comes to machining and fitment. Then theres the user experience - simply put, I understand the purpose of track pads now. Before, Ive always opted to use mouse, only using the track pad on... Show More
