Let's be honest, it's an Apple Macbook, so the build quality is AWESOME!!!But....For almost $3000 this thing is way under specs.  Talk about an Apple Tax!!!If you are doing basic tasks and don't mind paying the high Apple Tax, get it.  The screen is terrific.  The size of the screen is perfect.The touchpad is the best out there and can't even compare to any other laptop.Speakers sound terrific for small laptop speakers.Keyboard though is meh....  Could be better.  Feels to cheap.Webcam?  Forget about it.  Sucks.  Low resolution and low quality.16gb of ram?  For a almost 3000 dollar laptop?  Really???Doing basic stuff it ran warm.  Plugged in my samsung 4k monitor and it now runs hot.  Really?  Can't handle 4K without cooking?Next I realized the 4K was not outputting in HDR.  In order to get 4K HDR you need the $70 Apple USB-C dongle.  Ok.  Fine.  Ordered it.  Came in same day. Plugged it in.  Nice, 4K in HDR.  Now it runs a little hotter.  Oh.  And wait.  The display went out on me a couple times.  Known issue with the Apple USB-C adapter.  Really???Now comes the best part.  Edited a video and began to encode it to MP4 H265.  Kicked it off.  2 hour video was going to take a few hours to complete.  Really?  I9 processor in this mac and my older I5 PC did video editing faster?Now about 2 mins I to video encoding this thing fired up all fans, and got hot enough to cook eggs on it (up by the touchpad).  It was so loud I thought it was gonna blow.Needless to say I packed it all back up and returned it to Amazon.Plugged in my I5 8th gen windows PC with 32GB ddr4 ram, samsung evo plus ssd, and 1060 video card and was much happier again. Honestly, it doesn't compare.Last but not least, simple things in the OS like maximizing the window.  Did you know you can't maximize easily in macos?  Full screen yes but I just want to maximize not full screen the app.  Full screen takes over the entire screen.Also, what's the point in having an "almost" 4K screen when Apple won't let you watch videos over 1080P in safari, netflix, or Amazon.
