I love my MacBook Pro! I had the 13 inch macbook air 2017 and I hated that thing, used it for college and i wanted to get rid of it so bad so i gave it away. I always wanted the macbook pro because i thought they were just built better and i the interface of how its designed looked way better. Finally was able to buy one and so far so good. I really hope and pray this one doesn't start going slow like how my macbook air did after a year or 2. Bought one for my friend as well and she loves hers. I mainly use it for work, school/zoom calls and a little bit of streaming. Not a gamer so battery life is something i never have to worry about. Battery life was amazing for the first 2 weeks but  I can tell now the battery has been dying slightly faster but i believe it's from how much i've been on it lately but if i put it down for a few days (most likely 2) battery life hangs in there.
