C and then YV, how does that correspond to a date?
It is manufactured in June 2019. Pretty much the same as mine, so hopefully they did not have some problem in production at that time. However my coating seems fine so far other than those two small scratches.
Hey, since you have machine almost identical as mine, you could check your unit by running Cinebench and CoconutBattery while machine is running on battery? See if full charge capacity drops while the test is running (check the capacity after test has run so long that cooling fans is running at full speed and Coconut show power draw about 40W).
I know apple can do coatings as the one on the iPads and iPhones cope just fine (yes, even with paper towel). Really disappointed in this.
Definitely. I also had no idea that coatings on MBP's are that fragile. I cleaned one small fingerprint by breathing on the screen as moisturing it and then gently wiped that location with microfibre cloth. Seemed to clean fine, at least I did not noticed it damaging.
Would it be better the get some kind of screen protector for it? I can imagine the pain of installing one on screen this size as it is so hard to do well on smaller iPhone screen…
Is coating on MBP worse than Air? I mean I noticed no problems it scratching with using the same cleaning method?
If I return it they would charge me for the damage, so would lose money and still have no macbook. I'll go to service point on Saturday, to check what they think.
Did you try microfibre or other delicate methods trying to clean those stains (like breath for moisture it)? I mean they are really permanently damaged?
Seriously I would demand for replacement.
