  1. Review from a real user: My Macbook Pro 16-inch has serious overheating problems, like many other users. Google it. My old 2015 Macbook Pro had no issues at all when using the same apps. I am a Mac user for many years. Very disappointed in this Mac!

  2. I think you’ve meant the keys are more stable than the old scissor switch keys, not the butterfly keys because if there’s one thing good about the butterfly keys, is that they’re incredibly stable.

  3. Quarter pound heavier? Maybe the more recent models got heavier. Got this coming from a 2017 15' model and while it does feel much heavier the weight difference is only 0.001lb

  4. I have a MBP 16 (base model) and now I wish I can return it. It has very serious thermal issues. The computer would frequently freeze due to overheating, sometimes even right after it boots up with no apps running in the background. The CPU load would go up to 100% easily because of overheating, and the fans would run at full speed. Even browsing the web would be very laggy. In fact a lot of times it is even underperforming my 2018 13" macbook pro. I did some research online and realized that this is actually a very common issue among all macbook pro 16 users. I know some people really love this macbook but I just want to tell people my experience so they know the risks before deciding to buy it. Don't base your entire buying decision on these YouTube review videos. These videos are great but they mostly serve the purpose of entertainment. Instead do some thorough research on sites such as Apple's support forum and see what actual issues and frustrations other MBP 16 users are experiencing.

  5. Just upgraded from my Mac book pro mid-12. It's been 7 years of love. Still working tho. But I had to upgrade due to overheating
