macbook 2017

I will be buying my first MacBook. But, I am on a tight budget. 2 MacBooks are in my range. One is MacBook Air 2017 i5 13inch vs MacBook Pro 2015 i5 13 inch. I am an undergrad computer science student. I primarily need a laptop for programming. Which one would be a wiser choice overall?

Hi, I currently own a 2017 Macbook Pro (15-inch), macOS Mojave (10.14.2). When checking the storage space under about my mac, it is showing me that I have 208.55GB of Free Space, but when going to disk utility it is showing me that I only have 20.81GB of Free Space. Which one is showing the...

Hey guys, I'm new here but I've had strings of Apple issues and just wanted to see if anyone else has had any of the same issues. I have a Macbook 2017 with Touch bar, and since the release of Mojave my touch bar has been noticeably dim and it's starting to get pretty annoying. I've tried to...

Hey, I'm not paranoid or anything, It's just super irritating especially in the night when W shines as some party club while others are calmly dimmed. I want to ask if I'm the only one with this problem and if it's worth taking it to Apple Store.

Dear All, I have a mid 2013 Macbook air at the moment (256 GB SSD). 1.3 GHz Intel Core i5 4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 This laptop serves my purpose beautifully. At any point of time i have 2-3 windows with 6-7 tabs each opened along with 3-4 excel files and 3-4 PDF's. It basically solves my purpose...

I'm about to purchase a 2017 Macbook and I'm confused about how the various processor options impact battery life, heat etc. Is anyone with an i7 seeing great (~10hr) battery life? My assumption was that the M3 would offer the best battery life....am I wrong? Thanks!!

Before anybody corrects the title, I am basing this off the leaked information that the Core m3, m5, and m7 will be rebranded the Core m3, i5, and i7 with the next generation (Kaby Lake) chips. The m5 has seemed like the sweet spot and a significant upgrade over the m3, which, along with the...
