If a company has built a product that’s filled with problems, why buy another version of the same product from them. My original MacBook 12” was plagued with issues. It was underpowered and the keyboard was horrendous. I vowed to not get another MacBook, since most of my work is browser based or using office. I don’t rely on iTunes or iphoto on the laptop. Getting iMessages is nice but not something I’ll miss. For work there are other messaging services. I love my iPhone, my AirPods and my iPad, but the MacBook product line is disappointing.
