Apple Macbook Pro Touch 2017 Review

I had a mid-2017 MacBook Pro 13 that was still in great condition (and thank you B&H/Phobio for a great recycle price!) but was coming to the end of Apple Care. I wanted to keep the touch bar (unlike the prevailing consensus I love it) and do not need the additional ports that are reportedly coming in the new MBPs this year with the M1x/M2 chips. The new keyboard is great, very good travel, the Escape key is back, but it is totally true that the performance and battery life are INCREDIBLE. Apps, especially Apple Apps like Safari, Mail, Calendar, and Music open instantaneously (one bounce on the Dock or less). I have not done any heavy-lifting like video processing or photo editing yet but this is a great machine that I expect will last me another three years. I highly recommend getting 16GB of RAM as Big Sur wants to run in 8GB of space!

It works just fine with the latest 2017 MacBook Pro and is less expensive than the comparable Apple adapter.

It works just as I expected, and it looks great on my MacBook Pro 2017.

So far, I like everything about this MacBook Pro. My favorite feature is the Touch ID access. If ever Apple makes a touch screen MacBook Pro, that would be the ultimate. This is a great buy. Two thumbs up.

I have been very pleased with the MacBook Pro 13 inch with Touch Bar. Surprisingly, the Touch Bar seems to be very useful and enjoyable to use. The updated keyboard is quiet and smooth. The processing speeds are good and I haven't encountered anything problematic yet. The only thing I would consider negative is the smell and feel of the provided power cords. It smelled of petroleum and a white paste wiped off in my hands. I received two replacements from Apple and they suffer from the same condition. Not sure if that is part of the manufacturing process or perhaps it's a bad batch. I asked Apple to look into it, and they responded (for the most part) with grace.

Does it fit for 2017 macbook pro 13'? İf I purchase it.

It's huge for a 13'' MacBook Pro 2017 but It is a great Sleeve.

a great product perfect with my macbook pro 2017

I upgraded my 2017 MacBook Pro and it really seems it worth it. This new 2020 Macbook is very fast, has a much better battery and a totally new keyboard. As usual, Apple made a very good job!

I 'downgraded' from a top of the line 2017 15 Macbook Pro to this base model MacBook Air. My work consisted of programming and web browsing, and for those 2 use cases, this laptop actually performs better. Furthermore, the keyboard feels a lot better to type on than the previous generation, and shouldn't have any of the durability concerns. I also like getting the function keys back, the touch bar never did much for me. Lightweight, fast, and a great value.
