Review: The computer is amazing and I would give it a higher rating if I could. The sound quality is perfect. I had a 2011 MacBook Pro before this and I had to turn the sound up all the way to hear anything at all but I only need to turn it half way on this one. The size is perfect and it's light as a feather. But tell me why a delivery service would leave a $1000 computer on your doorstep without even knocking?
Review: El vendedor tiene una buena estrategia, coloca una piel tipo mica sobre la laptop y con esa mica no se perciben rayones y daños. Llegó con algunos raspones casi imperceptibles y le falla la tecla M. Sin embargo es un buen equipo, funciona correctamente y es como yo la necesito: ligera y compacta. Buen precio para un equipo usado, todo, fuera de la tecla M, funciona bien. Quizás solo le compraré una carcaza de plástico ya que la mica empieza a tener algunos tallones porque básicamente es una película plástica. Fuera de eso, estoy bien con esta compra.
