![]() ![]() This new laptop flagship represents a coy admission of past failure and an attempt at redemption. In 2019, Apple redeemed itself in the eyes of many developers, by releasing a new, much improved 16" model. From there, things went downhill, and the MacBook Pro suffered several iterations of poor design, most notably the infamous fragile keyboard, but also the lack of ports and controversial Touch Bar. In many aspects, the 2015 generation was considered Apple's pinnacle of laptop design. ![]() ![]() The 4x PCIe SSD drive performance is OK, it is not really twice the performance in real use vs the pro version of regular SSD drives as advertised but you paid premium for it.If you're a Mac user, and especially a developer or IT professional, it's highly likely you hold the 2015 MacBook Pro in high regard. Four cores i7, 16GB of RAM, only 2GB of Video memory (4GB should be minimum, 6GB is recommended for supporting dual 4K displays). Mac OS is using less system resource than Windows, you will see when Windows is running on this machine and compare both. Thinness is good for Macbook AIR that does need much performance, Macbook Pro does. When you are using a heavy load like video encoding or 4k encoding, you need to plug it to an AC outlet to give the CPU, GPU a full juice of energy. I can stand an inch thickness and half a pound heavier total of five pounds or less for more room for the larger heat sink that way the CPU, RAM, GPU can breath easier and the performance will be much more improve. The only reason I gave it four stars is that when it is on a heavy use, it gets really hot and the fan is loud. I use it for both Mac and Windows operating systems, four cores i7, 16GB RAM, light and portable. ![]()
