A PC User's Perspective

I have always been an advocate for PC and have used Windows for the most part of my life. I decided to go with a Macbook this time because I wanted to learn programming. Yes, I could have continued to use my current laptop to program but I heard that MacOS has everything you need already built in. Build Quality: In terms of the build quality, this Macbook Pro is absolutely stunning. The aluminum finish is the best in the market. The laptop still carries some hefty weight and you will eventually start getting grummy hand marks on the laptop. This can be cleaned though with a clean piece of microfiber cloth. I highly recommend buying a keyboard cover for this marvel. What I didn't like though was the placement of the speakers. I constantly keep getting dust in the tiny holes which I can't seem to get out now without compressed air. Sound quality wise, yes these speakers can get pretty loud. But it doesn't seem to have the bass power that every reviewer out there raves about. I absolutely love the fingerprint scanner. It is so fast to sign in as compared to typing out a password. The touchbar isn't really necessary. I tried playing with it, and it does feel nice to touch, but I rarely use it other than to change the screen brightness and the sound. The keyboard is something out of this world. It is very nice for short burst typing but long term, I am not sure if this is a good choice. The key's travel distance needs some time to get used to. As for USB-C, it hasn't been a problem for me. I just bought some adaptors (not dongles) and never had a problem. Software: Not used to it at first. There is definitely a difference between Windows and MacOS but each has their pros and cons. What I definitely didn't like though was the lack of window snapping. Windows is amazing for this but window management in the macos is horrendous at first. I had to download an app to enable snapping features which was already present in windows. This laptop is blazingly fast! I haven't used it for video editing (yet) but just opening softwares is very quick. Price: Yes the price is large. But you are paying for premium that will last you for a long long time. If you have a macbook 2015 or 2014, perhaps wait until the new macbook 2017 comes out with its new intel processors. If you want a macbook bad and don't have a macbook currently, I highly recommend getting the 2016 macbook pro. It's amazing!

Great laptop!

I dumped Windows in 2013 with my first Mac, a MacBook Air. and I never turned back. The reason is the Apple ecosystem in place and the integration with all of my Apple devices and of course the quality that comes associated them. And I like MacOS way better than Windows 10. The MacBook Pro with Touchbar's butterfly keyboard and touchbar will get a little bit of getting used to. You have to get used to the touchbar by making sure to look at it because there are useful events that display, depending on the app you are in. I think it'll get better. I love the screen and the sound for a laptop is amazing. I won't complain about the new USB-C only ports as I don't have a lot of devices needing to connect to it. Just a Logitech MX Master mouse via the USB dongle connected to Apple's USB-C to USB adapter. No biggie. Overall, this is an excellent laptop and I have absolutely no regrets, ok, maybe the price but you get what you pay for.

A touch of genius

And it introduces the Touch Bar — a Multi-Touch enabled strip of glass built into the keyboard for instant access to the tools you want, right when you want them. The new MacBook Pro is built on groundbreaking ideas. And it’s ready for yours.

  • Up to 130% Faster graphics
  • 67% brighter display
  • Up to !& thinner
MacBook Pro Touch Pad

Touch Bar and Touch ID

The Touch Bar replaces the function keys that have long occupied the top of your keyboard with something much more versatile and capable. It changes automatically based on what you’re doing to show you relevant tools you already know how to use — system controls like volume and brightness, interactive ways to adjust or browse through content, intelligent typing features like emoji and predictive text, and more. And for the first time, Touch ID is available on a Mac, enabling instant access to logins and fast, secure online purchases with Apple Pay.

Photos - Select a photo from your library, rotate images, and add a filter.

Final Cut Pro - Navigate through your project with an interactive display of your entire timeline.

Mail - Pick from your favorite emoji to add the perfect feeling to any email. Or type a message faster with predictive text.

Safari - Breeze through your open Safari tabs or touch a Favorite to view a saved site.

Keynote - Adjust the color of text and move through thumbnails in fullscreen.

Customization - In some apps, you can customize the Touch Bar with the commands that work best for you.

Performance

The new MacBook Pro elevates the notebook to a whole new level of performance and portability. Wherever your ideas take you, you’ll get there faster than ever with cutting-edge graphics, high-performance processors, state-of-the-art storage, and more.

Performance

Graphics performance up to twice as fast.

The 13-inch model provides up to 103 percent faster integrated graphics than the previous generation. That means more time for what matters most — creating amazing work.

Graphics performance up to twice as fast.
  • Video Editing

Edit multicam projects in Final Cut Pro X with up to 3 streams of full-resolution 4K video on the 15-inch MacBook Pro — with render speeds up to 57 percent faster.

  • 3D Graphics

Render 3D models faster in Autodesk Maya 2017 — with up to 130% better real-time performance than the previous-generation 15-inch MacBook Pro.

  • Gaming

Play a graphics-intensive game like Tomb Raider on the 13-inch MacBook Pro with up to two times faster performance than the previous generation.

Faster flash storage

MacBook Pro includes a solid-state drive that’s even faster than the previous generation, with sequential read speeds up to 3.1GB/s. The 15-inch model is the first available with a 2TB SSD — enough space to take even your biggest projects with you, without having to take an external drive. And its memory is faster than ever before.

Incredible power

With sixth-generation Intel Core processors, MacBook Pro delivers amazing performance — even when powering through the most pro-level processing jobs, like rendering 3D models and encoding video. At the same time, it can conserve energy when taking on lighter tasks, like browsing the web and checking email.

Impressive all-day battery life

The new MacBook Pro packs more performance into a thinner design, yet still provides all-day battery life — up to 10 hours for the 13-inch model and 10 hours for the 15-inch model. So you’re free to keep watching, gaming, and editing from wherever you are.

The coolest thing you'll never see

The thinner the notebook, the less space for cooling. So MacBook Pro incorporates innovations throughout the system that eliminate heat more efficiently than the previous generation — increasing airflow during intensive tasks.

The coolest thing you'll never see

Retina Display

The new display in the MacBook Pro is the best ever in a Mac notebook. It features brighter LED backlighting and an increased contrast ratio, delivering deeper blacks and brighter whites. Its larger pixel aperture and variable refresh rate make it more power efficient than previous generations. And it’s the first Mac notebook to support wide color, for even more vibrant greens and reds. This ensures truer-to-life pictures with realistically vivid details, essential for graphic design, color grading, and editing.

  • 500 nits brightness
  • 25% more colors than sRGB
  • 67% higher contrast ratio


MacBook Pro now features P3 color, which makes 25 percent more colors available than standard RGB - revealing a much broader range of greens and reds.

Audio

he speakers have been totally redesigned to provide as much as twice the dynamic range and up to 58 percent more volume, with two and a half times louder bass for maximum boom. And they’re connected directly to system power, enabling up to three times more peak power. So they make MacBook Pro the perfect choice for mixing a track on the fly, editing video on location, or enjoying a movie on the go.

  • Up to 58% more volume
  • Up to 2.5x louder bass
  • 2x dynamic range

Keyboard and Trackpad

Interacting with the new MacBook Pro is a better experience all around. The keyboard has been redesigned to include our new, second-generation butterfly mechanism — meticulously refined for greater comfort and responsiveness. And the Force Touch trackpad is significantly larger, giving your fingers more room to gesture and click.

  • 4x more key stability
  • Up to 2x larger trackpad

Thunderbolt 3

Thunderbolt 3 combines ultra-high bandwidth with the ultra-versatility of the USB-C industry standard to create one revved-up universal port. It integrates data transfer, charging, and video output in a single connector, delivering up to 40 Gbps of throughput for twice the bandwidth of Thunderbolt 2. And both sizes of MacBook Pro are available with four ports, so you can do all that from either side. Existing devices are easily connected with a cable or adapter. And Thunderbolt 3 is reversible, so no matter how you plug in, it’s always right side up.

  • Up to 40-Gbps data transfer
  • Supports up to two 4K UHD displays
  • Charge and provide power from any port
  • Four Thunderbolt 3 ports
