    2015 MBP vs 2020 MB Air

    I had the unfortunate luck of dropping my early 2015 MBP yesterday and looks like the screen is shot. Got a quote from uBreakiFix for $450. Trying to decide if it’s worth it to fix it or just call it a day and buy a new MBA. What do you guys think component wise? My MBP has 16gb of Ram (I...

    Dust stuck on 2018 13" MBP screen - Weird

    Hi everyone, I bought my 2018 13" MBP in October 2018 and recently (actually, for a couple of months but it was almost invisible before) I've noticed an horizontal line of dust on my screen. It seems to be caused by some keys applying pressure on it (especially the space bar). I have to admit...

    Crispy screen resolution

    When one changes the screen resolution in a retina iMac, will all resolutions look as crispy as the standard? On my mid 2010 iMac, which isn’t retina, only one resolution will look as crispy!

    Which Retina MacBook Pros are most/least prone to manifest Mura White Spots?

    I've read the first couple of gens of Retina were the most likely to manifest Mura White Spots. That: "you might treat it like a baby and you still might get it." How likely are they on the last gens of Retina (the 2014/15 ones)? And what about the post TouchBar generations? So far, in my...

    BookBook users with Retina MacBook Pros: how does your display coating hold up?

    Hi everyone, I recently replaced my non-retina 2012 MacBook Pro with a 2018 MacBook Pro, and while the 2018 MacBook Pros are not part of Apple's service program for the display coating I can't find any information about it having changed since the 2016 MacBook Pros. I am using a BookBook with...

    When will my MacBook Pro stop getting software and security updates?

    Hope this is okay to post here! I got passed down a Late 2013 i7 2.3 GHz DG Retina MBP from my uncle. I was wondering when I will stop getting updates on this machine? Will I get MacOS 10.15, 10.16 etc and when will it stop getting vital security updates? Thank you!

    Is this amount of backlight-bleeding acceptable?

    The screen was changed on my Macbook 13 retina mid 2014 because the antireflex was wearing off. This is the new screen I got, and it seems to have much more bright spots than previous one. Is it still within «normal» or should I go back? Picture is taken in a dark room with black background and...

When I switch from "Use as a separate display" to "Mirror built-in retina display" the resolution of the mac always defaults to a zoomed in resolution that makes it hard to see. I always have to go into settings, display, and choose "optimize...

    Macbook pro 2015 13" - is it still relevant?

    Hello guys, I have a 9550 FHD XPS 15, which works but doesn't really live up to my expectations. Having had a 2010 MBP before, I'd like to go back the "just works" type of operation I've always had on my MBP. I was initially looking at touchbar 2018 13" MBPs but the recent slew of "-gates"...
