- ownagefool 6y agoI'm on a late 2013 which I've only actually paid for a battery replacement on, so I can anecdote believe you. I'm not in love with macos though and there's more good options nowadays than there was in 2013.
- coldtea 6y agoOr the parent was unlucky - with some faulty production units, and the general case for most people, with hundreds of millions of units sold and the highest customer satisfaction ratings, is not that.
- gumby 6y agoNah, our household has a collection of macs none newer than 2017. My phone and iPad are from 2014 and my gf’s from 2015, and I have a watch 0. They all work fine and, except for the watch and geriatric macs, continue to get software updates. This will be a good excuse to start a mass upgrade but I won’t be an early adopter.
- qz2 6y agoNot at all. Some people, me included, look at hardware and it falls to bits. Really they're not particularly durable machines. Apple could do a lot better. Thinkpads are ok though. I haven't murdered one of them. Yet. I've tried and failed several times from coffee to catapulting them and they just eat my hamfistedness. I just bought a replacement iPad for my daughter for the one that we bought in 2013 though. Stuff can last a long time.
