    MacBook 16/14 inch hand/wrist pain

    Hi there, I was wondering if anyone would be able to advise. I’ve been wanting to upgrade my MacBook Pro from my 2014 13 inch one which is now just getting too old unfortunately. I ordered a 16 inch from the mac store and noticed quite quickly that my hands, arms and wrists were hurting when I...

    Loose Hinge or Normal?

    Hello, thank you for taking the time to read my inquiry. I just purchased a refurbished MacBook Pro 2019 16inch from eBay and immediately noticed the screen is a bit too wobbly?

    Keyboard Backlight Bleed on new 14 and 16 inch MacBooks?

    Hi all, I bought myself a new 14 inch MacBook Pro and immediately saw the backlight bleed on the keyboard. Light shines underneath some keys while this is not the case on other keys. It is not a huge issue and also not a defect of course and I know that I am a bit OCD about this but I just...

    MBP M1 Max 16" 140 watt charger alternatives

    I've just been looking on Amazon and can't see anything that comes close to 140 watt with two USB C ports. Does anybody have any recommendations for a 2nd charger? 2nd charger is so I don't have to carry a charger to and from work every day. And it'd be nice to be able to plug in...

    MacBook Pro 16" lagging when clicking/typing with integrated GPU but not with discreet GPU

    I've had my 16" MBP for more than a year now and I've constantly had this problem: when typing, every few words, the computer will freeze for a split second. This leads to inadvertent typos as I think I made a mistake when I didn't. The same happens in Safari when clicking on Favorites: I will...

    Late 2020 16" MacBook Pro Predictions

    I was hoping to buy a future-proofed & maxed-out MacBook Pro (with the best GPU) for starting university this fall. I felt the 16" released back in November was only a warm-up for something really big for 2020. I imagined a no-bezels miniLED 14.1" display with a new deca-core i9 CPU, paired with...

    How would you explain ghosting smearing display on “premium product” mbp for years if you were an Apple manager?

    This problem continues since 2016 touch bar models and there is no improvement. Ghosting/smearing got worse in latest 16” model. Is not there anybody or Department in thousands of apple engineers that hears the complaints, notice the problem and check the 16 inch units for this issue? Is this so...
