Since the new MacBook Pros only have USB-C ports, if you have a MacBook Air or MacBook Pro, you'll need a mouse with a Bluetooth connection.

Using a mouse instead of your MacBook's trackpad can prevent wrist fatigue and is much better suited for tasks that require more precision, like adjusting sliders in photo editing software or gaming. In the past, finding the best mouse for Macbook models was challenging now, just about every mouse you can find will work with Apple devices, at least partially. In simple terms I don’t think there will even be a working example of a in 6 years whereas the 2015s will definitely still be lugging along like the tank they are.If you travel a lot with your MacBook in tow, you may be more comfortable using a mouse instead of your MacBook's trackpad. Their x58-usb3-ud3 motherboard was a beast in high altitude, you can still find them in many colorado state owned computers to this day.įun fact: that’s why reflows work so well here! If only we had a high altitude production facilities 😢 I remember gigabyte of all manufacturers actually treats certain boards for this. The expanding and contracting of the pcb in combination with the lack of moisture or atmospheric pressure dislocates solder balls like nothing while concurrently rotting the pcb. Something about 2011s, and 2016-2019’s can NOT holdup to daily hot/ cold temperature shifts. Here in co, because of the weather, solder balls go FAST. The 2017’s however, totaled themselves like they had zero will to live. I’ve worked for a shop for years and the only reason a 2015 has EVER gotten totaled was from user damage. Why? Bc newer laptops, low end, are more expensive and slower. You will be able to sell it at the same price. It's cheap and you can taste the Mac experience. And only usbc ports, you will need hub/adapters for everything you want to use. And the RAM is limited (otherwise very expensive upgrade). What about skipping used macbooks and go for an M1? A refurbished Air goes for 800ish.

The non retina of the 2012 isn't very good. But for App development? I think will be probably using an (or more) external display.ĭisplay color fidelity? 20 are better. Otherwise they are pretty similar.ĭisplay resolution? 20 are way better. Or get 16 GB and you can use Virtual Machines.

Is Windows important? All the 3 can run Windows, on dual boot. And some models have tendency to have faulty GPU. Could suffer of delamination on the display. Cons: you can change only the SSD (proprietary interface). Pros: nice display (it is the famous Retina), Big Sur without Patcher. Bad performance for value.Ģ015? To me is the second choice. Cons: none? It would lacks a bit of power? For 99% of the users it is perfectly fine.Ģ017? No please. Mid 2012, if with the 4 cores i7 is pretty good for daily activities, and some light editing.
