Apple’s first M2 Mac has hit the usual review sites, and… no one really cares.
DO NOT BUY the M2 MacBook Pro! What Apple Didn't Tell You..
Apple’s M2 MacBook Pro is the strangest computer in its lineup. It has the word “Pro” in its name, but that’s the only “pro” thing about it. It uses Apple’s latest M2 chip, which is simply incredible, but it sits in a chassis so old that it still has massive black bezels and a Touch Bar. This might be Apple’s best-worst computer in a long time.
“An old design, fewer ports, an even older set of speakers, a pathetic camera, ridiculously slow charging because there’s no MagSafe charging, and a Touch Bar that has no place in a MacBook,” Linda G Thompson, a Mac user and CEO of software developer Notta.ai, told Lifewire via email. “The M2 MacBook Pro is a disaster. At its core, it claims to be a great value but underdelivers, it claims to be a great performer but underdelivers. Overall, the M2 MacBook Pro is like an old car with a new body kit; it looks great, but in the long run, it doesn’t work so great.”
Apple announced two M2 MacBooks at its 2022 WWDC event: this one, which is already on sale, and the M2 MacBook Air, with an all-new chassis design, larger display, and MagSafe charging port, which is still not available for purchase.
