quality control

Sup, y'all! Did Apple change type of magnets or rubber gasket? I remember that lid of MBA with Retina from 2018-2022 [manufacture date; not M2] closed kinda without any sound unlike MBP Am I tripping? Just my curiosity. Thank you!

I just unboxed my MBP 16, with M2 Max. Bought for work, I do coding and 3d modeling. There ar scratches between the monitor and the keyboard, in the center and the right. They are clearly visible, although depending on the light they are less visible. I tried wiping with microfiber, with water...

A few weeks ago, I decided to purchase an M2 MacBook Air. At 34, I had recently beat cancer and I wanted some retail therapy. But what I ended up needing was therapy for my retail... As with any new Mac, when I picked up my new machine, it was very exciting. However, after setting up the Air, I...

Slowly but surely I get the impression, that the glory days of Apple's quality control are over. Today I discovered two tiny clusters of bad pixels on the screen of my IPP 12.9 (2018). Annoying but with AC+ no big deal- normally. Apple accepted my request for exchange right away and will ship a...

Hi all, As I was cleaning my Macbook Pro (late 2016 with Touch ID) screen today, I noticed there were some small dots and lines that couldn't be wiped off. I noticed they were there beforehand, as they line up with some keys on the keyboard, but didn't think much of it. But today I realized...
