    BOUGHT THIS PRODUCT FOR MY MOTHER, SHE IS 70 YEARS OLD AND BARELY USES THE LAPTOP.THE SCREEN IS IN THIS STATE, APPEARS TO BE PEELING! VERY BAD!!
    Your browser does not support HTML5 video.  Note: My purchase was completed through Kanga Supply for this item that ultimately doesn't function as intended.Amazon Renewed item descriptions indicate that the products should work and look like new, which wasn’t the case for this purchase, ergo my poor rating. After only having the Macbook for less than a day, I was forced to reach out to the seller because the product no longer functioned as intended.CONSThe Macbook worked fine for the first hour or so of use, but during an update, the screen flickered vigorously (see video). I hoped it was just a fluke, and it led me to believe there may be some software or hardware-related issue. After having the Macbook for less than 12 hours, I was forced to reach out to the seller because the screen flickering caused the laptop to become unusable (see picture). I also came here to draft a review in hopes that my issue is resolved quickly and effectively. I'll update my review once this is complete.PROSAfter removing the laptop and inspecting the outside, I was pleased. The outside of the Macbook is in good condition, just one or two visible scratches or marks.The charger was not the original Apple charger (as other reviews have indicated) but an OEM adapter. I don’t care that much about whether it’s an Apple charger, as long as it functions.Specs match the advertised item I purchased:128GB SSD8GB ramEDIT/UPDATE: After reaching out to the seller as instructed with the Amazon Renewed products, I never got a response in the allotted timeframe (2 business days) and was forced to reach out to Amazon directly. Ultimately, this item was returned for a refund.UPDATE 2: Today is 1/13/2020 and I have still yet to see this problem resolved to my satisfaction (refund or exchange of working product), after having ordered this product on 12/26/2019. Highly disappointed both in Amazon and the third-party seller.UPDATE 3: Received a replacement Macbook on 1/15/2020. So far it seems to be working, no issues with the screen per the previous item received (was NOT the same item sent back, verified by serial number). Pleased so far with this item.
    The 2015 Macbook Pro is still, in my opinion, the best Macbook even in 2019. I use the SD card reader all the time and have several USB 3.0 devices. I also use a newer 2017 quad-core i7 for work (no choice) but the difference in speed is not worth the added money and lacking ports. When I actually put the newer 2017 to work, the heat issue is still a challenge for Apple and performance drops. It's like having power that I can't actually use unless I sit in a walk-in freezer. Don't quote benchmark speed tests to me, what counts is actual performance sitting at my desk for hours at a time working on a project. I also prefer the magsafe power (although this one uses the magsafe II which I like less than magsafe I which had a more solid connection) This one, I purchased for my wife and it handles everything she needs it to do. Although you can't upgrade the memory on these models, so make sure you get enough for what you need. If you want to change out memory, then the best choice is the Mid 2012 non-retina model which also come with DVD drives and has USB 3.0 ports.
