Overall a very powerful machine. I’ve used it for audio engineering, video editing, and with the entire Adobe Suite. It can handle it all. The Touch Bar is gimmicky, but I suppose that’s why they have removed it for the newest MacBook Pro line. I would give this 5-stars but the battery life is a joke. While my machine is only about a year old, the battery maybe lasts 2.5 hours using safari and mail only. Impossible to do any professional applications on the battery for more than 30-45 min.

I absolutely love my MacBook! It has been my favorite laptop that I have ever had. It run really well and I am able to work on multiple things at the same time. It is also really nice that I am able to connect my phone to my laptop and share the information across platforms without a middle man. As a Software Engineer, I love coding on my mac book and it is really easy to run virtual machines or to switch between them if necessary.

I love my MacBook Air. I purchased it for school because I was getting tired of carrying my previous heavy backpack around with me all day when I have to walk miles throughout the day to get to all of my classes. It’s light, fast, and meets all my needs. I’ve had the same one for almost four years now. I will say I have noticed it’s a bit slower than when it was new, but I think I could resolve this by reducing how much storage I’m using. The main thing that was kind of disappointing at the time is that there’s no disk drive (cd or dvd). I used to enjoy making mixed CDs. At this point I use Spotify and don’t really need that feature. If you just need a laptop for school any MacBook is a great choice IMO. Even buying one of these used would be superior to a newer non ... MoreI love my MacBook Air.

A better deal IMHO than a brand new MacBook Pro 16

This was an awesome purchase! 100% satisfied! Exactly as advertised, plus more. Boundlessmacs doesn't just refurbish MacBooks; they make them better than the original. This is a 2015 MacBook Pro 15. But the insides are upgraded to 2022 specs. They give you a brand new battery. Even the OS is Monterrey! i7 plus turbo boost, it's as if it was built from the bottom-up in 2022. (which it was!) My video editing is a breeze with this thing! A better deal IMHO than a brand new MacBook Pro 16. Does everything the latest MacBook does for $1,500 less! What a value! Don't spend all your money on that latest MacBook! Why would you pay over $2,000 when you can get the same thing for around $500. Plus, it is built so well that it will last for years. Boundlessmacs even gives you ... MoreThis was an awesome purchase! 100% satisfied! Exactly as advertised, plus more.

Almost perfect

Purchased a used Macbook Pro with a German keyboard - price was great, delivery was great, item was well packed. Laptop looks new - no scratches or signs of wear. Operating well. One concern (and the reason for a star deduction) is that the back of the case is a bit loose. It appears like the back was removed and the screws were not tightened all the way down - or at least that is what I hope the issue is. (Could also be the wrong screws or something bulging on the inside.) I don't have the proper screwdriver (P5 I think) to investigate right now - but I am optimistically going with the tightening oversight theory. Overall - very pleased.

Amazing value for a MacBook Pro but comes with expected cosmetic imperfections

Amazing price for the this product! There was a slight scratch on the surface of the laptop as well as a dent near the hinges where it closes. Those small cosmetic damages were expected as the price was very fair for the quality of MacBook sold (view pictures to see damages). Even so, I would have appreciated knowing about the dent on the hinges prior to purchase. The only thing that I was truly surprised by was the color. I thought for sure the description said I would be receiving a space gray model but the one I got was silver. If Im wrong on that I will change my review to 4 stars!

First Macbook Pro, Great First Impression

I've always wanted to jump on the bandwagon and own one of those shiny devices on the fancy tabletops inside the Apple Stores, and now, I finally got one. Right off the bat, after opening the box's lid, Apple makes for great unboxing experience. Laptop was wrapped in clear plastic sleeve and underneath, were the charger, extension power cable, black wiping cloth wrapped like an envelope, and the manual with apple stickers in their respective slots. After that, you HAVE TO do the "one finger to lift the lid" thing that's been hyped about (for me at least). And lo and behold, the lid lifts with one finger! The screen and keyboard is separated with a white sheet for shipping protection purposes. After throwing that away, you take a moment of silence to admire the ... MoreI've always wanted to jump on the bandwagon and own one of those shiny devices on the fancy tabletops inside the Apple Stores, and now, I finally got one.

After that, you HAVE TO do the "one finger to lift the lid" thing that's been hyped about (for me at least). And lo and behold, the lid lifts with one finger! The screen and keyboard is separated with a white sheet for shipping protection purposes. After throwing that away, you take a moment of silence to admire the fingerprint-less shine of the screen and keyboard. I charged mine up for about 20 minutes and then proceeded to press the power button on the top right of the keyboard once. You then hear the power on sound and then the contrasting white apple logo appears on the black background. Although the unboxing went without a hitch, my initial setup kinda went awry at my own fault. I kinda closed the lid (puts into sleep mode) while it was syncing with my iCloud account which resulted in me having to restart it twice to finallyget to the home screen. But after that hiccup, I then proceeded to ooh and awe at the surreal-ness of the Force Touch trackpad. I noticed the display was stunningly clear as well. Also at 3.49 lbs, it felt decently weighted for its performance being metal and all that (like holding 3 thin hardcover yearbooks stacked on top of each other). Safari works perfectly on the macbook with its trackpad gestures making the experience seamless. Other than that, I'm still using it today, and right now actually to type this.

POWERFUL MACHINE FOR IT'S AGE - and much more COST EFFICIENT !

Awesome Computer ! I can't say enough great things about it. Battery life is excellent and I was able to finish up on past adobe premiere projects that I couldn't finish up on my older iMac. This one is fast and strong enough to be able to handle video and still projects plus a bunch of other things. I guess this was the last Mac (2015) that can be upgraded if needed and battery replaced so I guess I will have this one for quite some time. I also love the size for most things - video is a little more challenging but not impossible. I would rather have this size than the bigger one that would require a much bigger back pack. I put computer in my Oakley sling pack and it fits perfectly. There really isn't anything negative I can say...my only complaint is I wish they ... MoreAwesome Computer !

There really isn't anything negative I can say...my only complaint is I wish they could make a keyboard that is more touch sensitive, but that isn't really a big deal. It has two USB ports plus an HDMI port as well. The price was a fraction of a new one (this is a used one I purchased) .... so you can get into a MAC system for much less by buying used or refurbished.

Really a spectacular Mac!

Really a spectacular Mac (mid-2015, 11,5). Has the older style keyboard which is just a bazillion times better then the ones Apple used between 2016 and 2020. A bit thicker and slightly heavier than the later models, but it is still super fast and can handle the latest OS Monterey. Plus, it has USB ports! Bought this for my wife to use for college and she is loving it. We're very happy with this purchase. All this for a fraction of the cost of a newer model. No regrets whatsoever.

The product was exactlyas described

Received the MacBook Pro. The unit was exactly as described. Some minor scuff marks on the base which are not visible during operation. A small section of the screen is not evenly backlit but not an issue in normal operation. One really has to look hard to notice it. All in all I am very happy with the purchase. My only recommendation is not to avail oneself of the free laptop sleeve if shipping internationally as from my experience it elevated the import duty from 10% to 30%when the order was shipped to Thailand.
