The 16inch MBP has replaced pretty much every laptop at work this year. I know we were holding off because nobody wanted the old keyboard. These will last 3+ years, so Apple have some time to screw around and get software updated while companies stick with old hardware. I hope they announce when they will stop making intel MBPs, as that is the real date when Apple silicon becomes real for most people.
- biztos 6y agoHave people at your work generally been happy with the 16" MBPs? I had one, top of the line, and I hated it -- it ran crazy hot all the time even when I wasn't doing much of anything. Connected to an external monitor, it would fan up just from surfing ordinary sites with Safari. From lots of googling around it seemed that many, many people had this problem. I was actually quite thrilled when I was able to send it back to HQ, and am now back to loving my 2014 13" MBP. Having dealt with those thermal engineering problems, I am both very hopeful for Apple Silicon, and very wary of buying newest-release Macs.
