First of all: you should never buy a product directly from the publication. My MBP was just three weeks before I made it from Amazon got.
The unit is very quiet during normal work. And here comes the point that bothers me a bit. That you can not upgrade the device and replace components poorly can be known and can not therefore be the subject of my review. When you start, however, very compute-intensive jobs there is quite noisy. If I let eg 9 execute with the current DxO a batch with Prime denoising it is really loud. However, this is an even sound of the fan, so a "tolerable" noise.
The working temperature of the CPU is always then at about 100 ° C - at the on my iMac 68 °. While this is all within the specifications, but also shows how much for the slim housing compromising cooling must be made. However - and this was also said after probably are other experiences - the housing of MBP thereby becomes hot just warm and at any point.
What I also is somewhat surprising that the brand new SSD during wear leveling already 95% or a value of 195 ejects at delivery.
I do not want to miss more and it is perfect for my work profile. My perfect MacBook would the case of its predecessor, but it is technically up-to-date. Then you could extend everything themselves and exchange. And it would accommodate larger slow-spinning fans.
The SSD is the way you can exchange secure again when available. Currently it makes no sense, since only 500GB are available for replacement.
