Similarly, AppleInsider and Engadget concluded it "may well be Apple's best MacBook to date" and "these are terrific choices—not only from an industrial design standpoint, but in specs as well" respectively, while also drawing attention to a lower quality display as compared with the MacBook Pro and MacBook Air.
Sarnaselt ütlesid veebilehed AppleInsider ning Engadget, et "tegu võib olla Apple'i parima MacBookiga tänaseni" ja, et "need on kohutavad valikud – mitte ainult tööstusliku disaini vaatepunktist, vaid ka näitajate poolest", juhtides samuti tähelepanu ekraani madalale kvaliteedile võrreldes MacBook Pro ning MacBook Airiga.
