I have the Macbook Pro 16 and have been using it for a few months now. Overall, I think its pretty bad laptop for how expensive it is. Yes Apple fixed many things people were complaining about but it is a perfect example of how Apple has stopped innovating and stopped caring about the MacBook line. In fact, I dislike it so much I have started using my 10 year old MacBook Air instead of my brand new Macbook Pro.
Things I dislike about the MBP 16:
- Still has the touch bar
- Screen size is awful. I like to work with windows size by size and the 16 inch screen size is awkward because most website won't re-size properly.
- Its heavy as hell, slightly thinker than the old ones.
- Its slow. Yes, all the RAM and CPU and the thing is
laggy. I don't know why but it just has a bad "feel" to it.
- Touchpad is too big. Its gigantic and I often end up touching it by accident.
- Its crazy expensive
In the end, I will end up selling it and using my 10 year old Macbook Air until it dies. After that I'm not sure.. maybe I will try the newer Macbook Air and see if its tolerable. At least it doesnt have a touchbar.
