    MagSafe charging cord fraying after 5 weeks - Sad

    I'm hoping I'm simply unlucky. 2021 16" MacBook Pro Max. After 5 weeks of otherwise happy ownership today I noticed my charging cord fraying at the MagSafe connector. Has anyone else encountered this issue. The MagSafe charging cord has not even left my house.

    Undersurface of new 2021 MacBook Pro 16 flimsy?

    Hey folks, I noticed that the underside of my new MacBook Pro 16 (2021) seems to be a little flimsy on the left side. When having it on my lap and moving it a little, I can sometimes hear the thin backplate "clicking" against the rest of the case, like there is a little gap of air. It's really...

    Scuffed Chassis on a brand new Macbook Pro. Am I the only one?

    Hello everyone. I purchased a macbook pro 16" in early November and it has finally been delivered. The computer seems to work fine, however I noticed there are a few scuffs on the chassis. These are incredibly minute, however it is very annoying at this price. I just wanted to know if this...

    How to maximize number of external monitors on MBP 16" M1 Max 10 CPU/32 GPU MacBookPro18,2 (A2485 - 2021) and best "dock" options?

    I need to drive at least 9 external monitors (more if possible) on a MacBook Pro 16" 10 CPU/32 GPU model. All of these are 2560x1440 or lower resolutions. I realize that it natively drives 4 external monitors (so with its built-in display that would make 5 total), but what adapter(s) are needed...

    MPB 14 vs MPB 16

    After carefully reading the specs for M1 MAX and differences between the two models (14 & 16), I noticed only one thing which sets the both appart (aside from the obvious body size and less obvious battery life): High Power Mode (HPM). I was curious about how much power it would actually bring...

    2021 MacBook Pro display trim piece

    Some folks have noticed that the black trim piece underneath the display is "wavy" or appears to not be glued properly. Looks like the display cables the run underneath this trim piece are causing it to be wavy. iFixit provides a better view...

    Will the new MacBook Pro's 1000 nits be usable?

    I ordered the 16" in the hopes that I could use it outdoors, but I'm reading it won't be possible? I can't be the only one maxxing out the display brightness (even indoors). The iPad Pro limits HDR to to certain kinds of content. I'm not sure if anyone has experimented with Apple's XDR...

    new MBPro 14" v 16"

    So it's going to be one or the other... I've not had a Macbook Pro in years, using an iMac for the past few years. There is a relatively small $300 difference between the 14" Pro Max and 16" Pro Max. Each configuration will have 32MB Ram and a 1TB SSD. Once in a while I'll use Affinity Photo...

    M1Max worth it for 32GB RAM and given usage patterns?

    Is there any practical reason to choose M1Max over M1Pro for a heavy office usage / occasional disk-intensive data analysis / heavy photo editing? I'm buying laptop to last something around 5 years (my 2010MBP, upgraded, is still running smoothly). In heavy office usage my typical HW-stretching...
