Trackpad no longer clicks on my 2017 12" MacBook
I can no longer click by pushing down on the trackpad. Moving the cursor works fine, and I can get a click by hovering over where I want to click and then tapping. If I'm correct, the trackpad doesn't actually "push" mechanically, right? It's all haptic feedback. Or am I wrong about this? I... -

Next Macs placeholders are right in front of us 2022-2023
So, I believe the next Macs placeholders are already in the lineup right in front of our faces. #1 - the M1 MacBook Air at $999 is the placeholder for an M2 12-inch (12.2-12.4”) MacBook Air. Once stock is depleted of that enclosure (it’s the most popular Mac, so I’m sure the current production...- Tyler O'Bannon

Would you buy a MacBook 12" in 2021?
Hey guys, So I have come across a really good deal (considering a bit expensive for an older device) but gorgeous 2017 (released 2018) Gold MacBook 12" 8GB, 512GB i5 Intel which is on sale at the moment.

Contemplating “downgrading” from MBP M1 to Macbook 12” 2017 - Wrong or right choice?

So my cycle count is nearing 2/3s of the 1k count mark and has been experiencing battery issues, when this mac was new I would typically get around 9 hours out of a charge and now it's less than half of that.

MacBook Air (mid-2012) to 12" MacBook (2017) = upgrade?
I have a mid-2012 1.8ghz i5 MacBook Air with 128gb storage. I use it lightly for web browsing and emails. The £800 m3 MacBook deal in the UK has me tempted for the screen upgrade alone (plus battery and 256gb storage). However, will I see any overall speed/performance upgrade? Has anyone else...- SiteChecker

2017 MacBook vs. 2018 MacBook Pro 13"
I just thought I'd share with you my experience with the new 2018 MacBook Pro 13" compared to my 2017 MacBook. I did not like my 2017 MacBook. The keyboard *sucked*. It's every bit as bad as they say, and then some. It was really underpowered. I got it because it was lightweight and...- sebfrey

Macbook 2017 i5 vs i7 Battery Life On Normal Tasks
I have ordered i7 16gb 512 Macbook, i7 specifically in hopes that it will be snappier than the i5 as time goes by. However I have a lingering feeling that the battery life on the i7 model will be worse than the i5. What are your opinions and experiences on the same class of CPU i5/i7 and its... -

MacBook, Dongle-dom & "Single port life"

Buying a new 12" MacBook today.. some questions
I was really hoping Apple was going to update the 12" MacBook alongside the 13" MacBook Air. It's been 17 months since it was last updated.. 17 months with the same pricing.. it seems so wrong to buy it new today but it's the only option I'm left with besides finding one 2nd hand.
