"Great machine, got duped by seller."

"The best laptop experience I ever had"

"Great Laptop for work, lags at times, but way better than Windows!"

"A beautiful machine"

" The specifications are neat and you can always upgrade it to 16 gigs of RAM and a SSD drive at your will"

"Without macOS it's just another laptop and there's no point to buy if you would be working more on the windows side (except a virtual machine preferably parallels desktop) it's OS is made for it and knows how to manage the particular set of hardware in perfect harmony"

"OSX now macOS after sierra is way more hardware efficient than windows plus interface is so easy going back to windows feels like a downgrade"

"You do get good keyboard on every laptop but the trackpads on most windows laptop don't even stand close to apple trackpads"

"Display is good though you get better screens on windows laptops or retina macs but windows don't handle screens as good as mac that's where it isn't an issue because mac on this screen beats any other windows laptop with better potential"

" But if anyone is in the market for a laptop thats pleasing not only to the eye but offers great value for the buck "

" Probably the perfect work laptop available in this range, And yes, thank you Amazon, for you quick service, I haven't received the entitled cash back yet, but since i've escalated it, I'm sure you will resolve my issue as always"

"If you are willing to spend 40K on a windows laptop, I would recommend to shell out another 15K to get this Pro as you will love it for sure"

"9) Overall this is a good machine and has been of good use to me"

" So, In my opinion, I must say the best laptop experience I ever had"

" The laptop was packed with great care, except the marking on the package "GLASS Handle with care", but was packed as such"

" It was breathtaking to see how nicely and safely the notebook was packed in its on box, perfect and precise, like a baby in its mother's womb, except for that umbilical cord"

" Excellent laptop"

" its a good machine"

" It does heat up but not like a frying pan or like other brand laptops"

" I didnt find it any faster than my old laptop"

"Battery is good as long as you don't ise CHROME (don't use it SERIOUSLY), virtual machines, video rendering or gaming(these aren't built for gaming though it does perform better you think it can)"

" Don't worry though because Service battery alert disappears automatically if you reduce the load on battery for a few days running only very less cpu intensive tasks"

" If your battery usage is very intensive you might want to keep the charger plugged in always because that keeps the battery healthy"

" I use an early 2011 13" MBP and its still running strong still battery has 956 load cycles at the time of review and still holds 90% charge"

" But, overall, it is very efficient and has amazing battery backup"

"After using the machine for a day I liked the features like the Battery indicator, CD Drive, Excellent build quality that cannot be found on most newer Retina models today"

" It has long battery life and fast charging"

"Absolutely love the battery life on my Air and it was ultra light; But ran out of space and was getting difficult to manage with an external drive"

" - I now have a personal MacBook with 750GB disc space and phenomenal performance coming from upgraded 256SSD and 16RAM - All this for 70K - Cant be beaten - Saving of 32K compared to Macbook Retina 500GB - Of course Retina is the best screen and great battery, but I would rather keep my 32K and buy something else"

" The keyboard is great and trackpad gestures are just so efficient"

" Nowadays you do get good keyboard on almost every laptop but the ones on apple beat every other keyboard"

"You do get good keyboard on every laptop but the trackpads on most windows laptop don't even stand close to apple trackpads"

" The keyboard is quite elegant and the trackpad is too good"

"AWESOME DELIVERY- AWESOME MAC (JULY2015 MANUFACTURED) - FAIR PRICE-WARRANTY 1 YR-UPGRADED RAM TO 16 GB ( Crucial 8GB DDR3L 1600"

"If you want you can replace the SuperDrive with another hdd or ssd if you seek a performance boost but won't matter if current hdd is way too slow for your needs"

" Memory card reader is good so you won't waste a usb port on memory card reader"

" Plus mbp doesn't have a bios so you can't disable hyperthreaded cores, so if you feel a game is stuttering more than it should then change game's affinity to processor 0 and 1 only"

" More fps can be gained by maintaining a balance between quality and performance or minor tweaks in intel hd settings but games are playable if tou know how to improve their performance"

"Sidenote: I'm a professional penetration tester & have a neat performance side of the machines i own"

"However if you are not used to a MacBook let me inform you that it only has two USB ports and the Ram is only upgradable to 8 Gigs, which you will have to do if you are using softwares like Logic, FCP or even imovie"

"RAM can be expandable to maximum 8 gb as per Apple but in answer of someone question's dealer says maximum you can expand it to 16gm but I checked with Apple service centre team and according to them it is recommended upto 16gm for better performance"

"make sure you purchase correct RAM for macbook pro DDR3L 1600mhz"

"3) Do not buy this machine if you are looking for a faster i7 processor or if you are into graphics, for Audio Production and using Logic pro X, this machine is good enough"

"(1) Lighting fast Processor- It has 2.5GHz Intel Core i5 processor"

" than you can easily upgrade your RAM, SSD & Super Drive etc"

" But I must say in 4GB RAM performance is awesome"

" - I now have a personal MacBook with 750GB disc space and phenomenal performance coming from upgraded 256SSD and 16RAM - All this for 70K - Cant be beaten - Saving of 32K compared to Macbook Retina 500GB - Of course Retina is the best screen and great battery, but I would rather keep my 32K and buy something else"

"I have 16gb RAM on mine and works perfect"

" I've already upgraded the RAM"

"Display is good though you get better screens on windows laptops or retina macs but windows don't handle screens as good as mac that's where it isn't an issue because mac on this screen beats any other windows laptop with better potential"

" But otherwise great screen plus you can always pair in another screen to expand screen estate"

" The display is classy and though it is said to be an old model the manufacturing date is mentioned as july 2015"

" display is awesome "

"(3) Best Look & Display- It is silver colour & rounded edges, Dimensions 22.7 x 32.5 x 2.4 cm & weight 2.1 kg"

" - This screen is excellent even though its non retina"

" - I now have a personal MacBook with 750GB disc space and phenomenal performance coming from upgraded 256SSD and 16RAM - All this for 70K - Cant be beaten - Saving of 32K compared to Macbook Retina 500GB - Of course Retina is the best screen and great battery, but I would rather keep my 32K and buy something else"

"- Screen requires regular cleaning"

" Don't worry though because Service battery alert disappears automatically if you reduce the load on battery for a few days running only very less cpu intensive tasks"

"If battery drains too quickly it's mostly not a battery error, actually it adapts to your recent battery cycles so if you have been draining battery heavily for some days, then a few days of light usage will get it to normal just like the service battery warning case"

" good service on delivery"

"Great Laptop for work, lags at times, but way better than Windows!"

"Without macOS it's just another laptop and there's no point to buy if you would be working more on the windows side (except a virtual machine preferably parallels desktop) it's OS is made for it and knows how to manage the particular set of hardware in perfect harmony"

"OSX now macOS after sierra is way more hardware efficient than windows plus interface is so easy going back to windows feels like a downgrade"

"PS: Don't use chrome it's way too badly optimised and drains battery faster than a virtual windows 10 session and chrome would heat up mbp to an extent it can't heat any further and the fans start to sound like a jet plane taking off"

"Display is good though you get better screens on windows laptops or retina macs but windows don't handle screens as good as mac that's where it isn't an issue because mac on this screen beats any other windows laptop with better potential"

" But many recent games in windows like gta v, nfs till(mw 2013), blur, call of duty (till mw3) , far cry 3, assasins creed (till black flag), anf many other games at low and medium setting at playable rates if you have more than 4gb ram"

" That's okay tho as it was my fault to not take absolute care while installing these (please research right driver set while opening this mac machine)"

"However if you are not used to a MacBook let me inform you that it only has two USB ports and the Ram is only upgradable to 8 Gigs, which you will have to do if you are using softwares like Logic, FCP or even imovie"

" Trust me, you really enjoy this OS"

" When I started working on windows or playing games till 1-2 hours than my mac become heater, I don't know why this happened"

" On my question on how to dual boot to Windows as well, Mr"

"- OSX seamlessly supports Windows applications with integrational apps like Parallel / Wine"

"PS: Don't use chrome it's way too badly optimised and drains battery faster than a virtual windows 10 session and chrome would heat up mbp to an extent it can't heat any further and the fans start to sound like a jet plane taking off"
