Although Apple has not relaunched the MacBook brand since 2015, it continues to make a steady stream of small updates to its iconic laptop, which straddles the line between the more cost-effective MacBook Air and the powerful but pricey MacBook Pro.

Here are the pros and cons. Pros: Super light with a beautiful display. All macs are fundamentally the same software-wise so there's nothing to report there. The compact nature of the machine is ideal for mobile work, students, traveling system, etc. This is not a machine for any type of gaming.

HORRIBLE BATTERY

I'm very happy with my purchase. I purchased an open box 2016 MacBook 12quot; 256GB for approximately $994. When I picked up the computer from Microcenter, at the time I believed there were scratches and wasn't so sure about the color.

Managed to purchase this with additional discount code before Very applied ridiculous apple price hike. I had been considering purchase for a while, but waited until release of new MacBook pro to make sure I didn't choose the wrong one. I am very happy with my choice.
