    I’ve been saving up for a iPhone 11 on this site, eventually I downloaded the app for it and I’ve been looking for videos because I’ve never used this site. Thank you for sharing info about the website.

    I just bought a 2019 MBP 16” i7. The seller was Omaha Blue. It was originally $866, but the sales tax kicked the price up to $950. An additional $75, I got mine in good condition. It has yet to arrive though. I ordered it this morning May 5th, 2023. Considering it comes in 3 business days. I have to wait until May 10th, PAIN. But it’s cool, I’m already hyped. This is my first MacBook. 🎉
    Also good video, I loved how you presented the product and gave the audience a descriptive presentation on what you will be speaking about. Also I love the intro too. I can tell you’re a gentleman!

      @@skyrawkattttttt It works really well. It is absolutely incredible, stunning and sleek. The performance is amazing. This is a great laptop. It is very durable and the battery is not as bad as what people claim it to be. I have noticed I have been more productive on my MacBook, than when I used my old Windows laptop. just love the feel with typing on this. On Back Market, I ordered this MacBook in "Good Condition". There is no visible dents or scratches any where on the MacBook. There is one very small scratch on the top of the MacBook. But it is not noticeable, unless you really look at it. The scratch is smaller than a grain of rice honestly and it does not bother me one bit. I highly recommend buying this one!🤍

      ​@@andrew_qgi ​ A more updated and thorough response 2 months in:
      I am IN LOVE with my MacBook. Apple made it so much easier just using a laptop, because I had windows laptop for over 3 years and I really did not know how to use a PC still. But this MacBook, mannn. It is just sooo smooth. I love the touch bar functionality too! I do not know why people hated on it so much? Maybe, because there was no physical "escape" button. But on this model it has one. The touch bar is really great, because you can customize it. Like switch out different buttons and functions and move the buttons around to where you want them. If I want to lower or increase the brightness or the sound. I have two options of just tapping it like a physical key. Or sliding my finger. Also I love how when you type there are word suggestions that pop up that you can click as if you were texting on a phone. The cool thing is that when you type in a certain word, the emoji appears on the touch bar. As well as the emoji function itself. You can scroll the emoji's on the touch bar and it is the coolest thing ever. I have never seen anything like it before!!! Then the backlit keyboard is just fire, my old laptop did not have it. The OS of this MacBook is just great. It is just smooth like when you open and close a window or when you can put windows side by side. Even when I type on my MacBook , maybe because I got the 16" so it works well with my long fingers, but man. I am having a blast typing on this all the time. I do not have to be doing anything important. It just feels so smooth and easier typing on this, than a different computer. The one thing I dislike is the fact that this track pad as well as other macs all are big AF for no reason....There are times where I accidentally move the mouse and click something. Or even, when I accidentally touch the touch bar, but with the touch bar. I just have big ass hands. With the track pad, it is definitely big for no reason. I enjoy the sound too! The sound quality on this MacBook is really nice. It feels like I am sitting in a movie theatre with surround sound. I also have been getting a lot of things done too. Having a laptop is just really important honestly. My mother and other family members scold me for making a big purchase, because I still have yet to buy a car...😭 But at least I use this like everyday. I sometimes bring it to work with me. The Apple ecosystem is nice too. I love how my icloud data syncs across devices. I can take a quick note on my phone and finish it later on my mac. Or I can airdrop a photo from my phone to mac and vice versa. With this mac it helped me understand much better about how to use files and folders. One thing that scared me though. Was when the macbook was off. Like COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN and I kept clicking the power button. Anxious that it was not going to turn on. I held the power button down and it made this loud noise and turned on. Which I did not expect the MacBook to do lol. The battery on this laptop is ok though. I see what people mean about the battery dying fast, but comparing this battery to the one in the M1 or the M2 is not a fair comparison tbh. Just, because this one has fans and the other one does not. The battery last for a few hours before needing to charge. It probably last like 5-6 hours. Depending on how much you use it and what applications you are running. The charger block itself is 87watts. I noticed that the battery last a long time when you plug the block with the cord it came with into the wall. If you plug it into an extension cord, it will take hours to fully charge and the charging block will get extremely hot. Also if you use the proper equipment like the charger and stuff it will charge faster and the battery will last longer. I charged my macbook with my Nintendo Switch charger, because my charger broke when I dropped my damn, laptop on accident. The Nintendo Switch charger was charging my macbook, but the battery was taking a while to charge and the battery drained fast. Overall for this to be my first MacBook with all this storage, ram and a lot of functionality. For this to be easy to use and manage and how it is implemented into the Apple Ecosystem. I give this a solid 10/10. Especially the touch bar. That itself is goated, just how you can use it and customize it. I really do not understand the hate that it got. It is extremely useful. It changes depending on what application you are using. Like if I was watching a video on my gallery. I will be able to see the video on my touch bar and rewind or fast forward frame by frame with just a slide of the finger. There are other ways that the touch bar is used as functionality as well. It is just goated. I also like how sleek it is to open and close the laptop. Not much tension or force needed to close or open it. It is just really smooth and gives a nice luxurious feeling.

    Only French banks have a RIB BANK ACCOUNT - I'm from Greece, so I don't have one!!!
    police copy - I have to pay extra money about 150+ for translation into French and for the drafting of the complaint by a lawyer - all this out of my own pocket
    and all this NOT TO GIVE MY MONEY BACK BUT TO START AN INVESTIGATION INTO WHAT HAPPENED
    For those who don't believe, I send them the evidence - if it was a serious company, they would sue me for defamation, but how dare they!!!
