Customer Reviews: Apple 13-inch MacBook Pro (Intel Dual Core i7 2.9GHz, 8GB RAM, 750GB HDD, HD Graphics 4000, OS X Lion)
I've had a Dell laptop for the past four years and recently upgraded to this exact MacBook - best thing I've ever done! I'm a student and have never enjoyed studying and researching as much as I have since beginning to do so on this MacBook - it's perfect for the student, the professional and anyone who is wanting to use it for general entertainment purposes. Very on-trend too and looks quite the business!
I do a lot of writing, photo-editing, video-editing, listening to music, watching DVDs and surfing the net and with an amazing battery life and huge storage space, huge RAM, clear screen etc, it's absolutely perfect and I'm sure will last me for a few years with as little problems as possible.
It's still very portable at 13-inch, so don't just buy a MacBook Air or MacBook Pro Retina on the whim - this specific MacBook, whilst the others are still amazing, has so much more in terms of what I've described above. When I bought it over the phone from Apple, the man on the phone said that it was the 'MacBook that has everything'! And it really does.
I'd heard so many great things from other Mac users and after having an iPhone for the past year or so and enjoying my experience with that, I really can say that I've made a very sensible purchase.
If you're a student at university in the UK (or indeed the US) I would suggest that you phone the apple store themselves like I did to get your discount (took about £180 off my MacBook in total, though I went through a lot of bother with that (quite a wait for a few days while they check your student status before they dispatch) but it was still worth it. For those who can't get the discount, I've had a very pleasant experience with buying many a thing from Amazon in the past and so I would recommend that you buy your MacBook from them and nowhere else online, especially this particular laptop here. It really is quite something.
If you're new to MacBooks then I recommend 'MacBook for Dummies' which they also sell on this website and make sure that you get the most up-to-date version (2012) as that fits this 2012 MacBook with OS X Lion and the features that come with that and this Mac perfectly. It's easy to read and full of so many tips!MacBook For Dummies (For Dummies (Computers))
Beautiful product which excells at being user friendly and super fast. So simple and quick to set up. It makes you wonder why windows pcs are so cumbersome.
Well, what can I say, I am an Apple fan, I have an iMac, an iPhone 4S and now I've upgraded my white Macbook to a Macbook Pro. It's so good I no longer use the iMac, I've left that for the rest of the family to use and now all the programs and data I use is sync'd on the laptop and phone.
For ease of use, speed and reliability (they just don't slow down like PCs, the day I switched to Mac was the day the vein in my temple stopped throbbing from PC issues), separation from Microsoft (don't like them at all), the beautiful way Mac products interract with one another, the way you don't need to load in a CD to be able to connect to another piece of hardware, the user interface, and so much more I don't think I will ever go back to PC. And this laptop will last me well into my 50s and do everything I need.
I could gush a lot more but if you're a fan like me you already know why I like them. And if you're not a fan, well I wish you well, you're probably not reading this anyway.

just what you would expect from apple - an excellent laptop in all respects. The 13 inch screen is fine however my current flat screens make it difficult to connect the laptop to a larger screen if desired for longer term use during the day.

Having resisted buying a apple mac for years I finally took the plunge and have no regrets.
No more problems, works as it should.
Wish life was always so simple!

Wow! What a great laptop, so happy that I decided to pay more for the quality product. Picture is amazing and the amount of memory means that I have enough space for everything and should be suitably future-proofed too. Great product! Great service from the company too.

its a very pricy laptop, but probably worth it. certainly the best laptop i have ever had, but it cost twice as much as the one i had before, so the comparison is a little unfair. it goes well with my iPhone, ipad and apple tv.
I am not a "tekkie", and don't really understand much of what is written in many of the reviews here when people talk about specifications and performance etc. What I will say is that I use a computer for photographs and music and chilling with the t'interweb... like a great many of us do.
I have used a Windows PC / Laptop for years, and have just become so utterly frustrated with the constant slowing / crashing / updates and Lord knows what else that comes along with any Windows product. Having had an iPhone for the last 3 years, I decided it was time to take the plunge and opt for a MacBook.
All I can say is "Why the hell did I wait so long?"... yes, it takes some getting used to with the differing operating system and controls, but once you do, it's so user friendly. Individual keys, stopping typo's and silly mistakes and a back lit keyboard making things easier to see. The screen may be a little smaller, but it is thinner and the resolution is just amazing - and that's without the Retina display variant!
It FEELS like a quality product, as well as looking the part... it's ridiculously quiet, blisteringly fast..... and just oozes quality!
If you are thinking of buying one, don't think any longer, just do it.... you will definitely not regret it!
Thanks for the amazing content on your blog I am very interested in this article and you have really helped me.
