    Anyone driving a Studio Display with a 2018 15" MacBook Pro?

    Hi, I wanted to know if there's anyone out there using a 2018 15" MacBook Pro with a Studio Display and how they find the experience? I have a 2.2 Ghz 6-core i7 16GB and might be looking to use that with the Studio Display. How is the noise? Do the fans run all the time at max because of the...

    Weird bulge appeared on my MBP 15” 2018

    Hi guys! Recently I noticed this weird bulge on the right side of my laptop and I’m not sure what it can be. Some inner parts could be swollen, right? Quite long time ago (about 2 years) my right speaker stopped working and I know that that’s a hardware issue. Should I be worried? Right now I...

    Which mac should I get

    So my current MacBook Pro is basically running on fumes. I’ve been looking at the m1s and also 2018 and 2019 15 inch MacBook pros. The heat and noise don’t bother me of the larger intel machines. I edit video and photos quit often. I also don’t think I can go to a smaller 13 inch screen but the...

    MacBook Pro 2018, 15 inch gets very slow AFTER using heavy apps?

    Hi guys, I have a 15-inch 2018 2.2 Ghz MacBook Pro and it's been running whatever the latest Big Sur has been for the past few months.

    MacBook Pro 15" (2018) on 185 charge cycles already down to 73% battery capacity and "Service recommended"

    Some background: this was a launch-day machine that I ordered right after the press release back in 2018, see screenshot for config details. My usage pattern is that this machine is plugged in 98% of the time, and then it is mostly plugged into an external display in clamshell mode. I run some...

    How much weight a MacBook Pro can withstand?

    Long story short, a colleague was reaching for a folder on a high shelf in the office and kept her balance putting her hand ( with all her weight behind, even though she weights less than 60kg) on my MacBook Pro 15” 2018, lid closed. There’s no apparent damage but I’m paranoid, so I wonder if...

    15" battery life, 16GB/560X vs 32GB/555X?

    I have a question regarding these two. If I understand correctly Apple put in a bigger battery in the 2018 15" to handle DDR4 RAM. So would 32GB use less or more power vs going with 16GB and potentially maxing it out and using swap memory? I have a choice between two refurb models, 16GB/560X...
