I have spent twice the money you stated for a new MacBook Pro 13".
I'd say, the primary point is "it just works".
I know, once it's been delivered, I'll install a couple of tools, transfer some files and it will work. It won't get slower, it won't crash, the hardware won't break. And I don't have to waste time keeping that thing alive.
Maybe I was just lucky with my previous Macs but that's the experience I've had in the last years.
- UnoriginalGuy 10y agoThe latest iPhone literally cannot plug into the latest MBPs. The MBP also lacks the chip the AirPods need to work smoothly. I think it is safe to say "just works" is officially dead at Apple.
- cygned 10y agoHa! That's a good point, though. > The MBP also lacks the chip the AirPods need to work smoothly. Could you elaborate a bit?
- huxley 10y agoYou can retire the AirPods argument. The W1 chip is in the AirPods, the device that it connects to doesn't need to have a W1, the only requirement is OS support, that includes Macs running Sierra. Under system requirements: "Mac models with macOS Sierra or later"
