Users are satisfied with the 12-inch MacBook

When Apple released the 12-inch MacBook, users were quite outraged by the internal hardware and the single USB Type-C port on the latest Cupertino firm's laptop. From launch day last April of this year, interested users have determined that it is an interesting product but too expensive.

Apple now has the challenge of updating or not the new MacBook and in principle what is expected at this point in the year is that this update arrives when the Mac celebrates its first anniversary, that is, in April 2016. The 1,2 GHz dual-core Intel Core M processor (Turbo Boost of up to 2,6 GHz) with 4 MB of cache that adds the most powerful version of this MacBook is sufficient for most tasks, but obviously the new Inten Skylake processors would suit the 12 ″ MacBook luxury.

All of us are used to Apple not warning of the possible change or update of the processors and the 27-inch Retina iMac are the clear example of this. Would the MacBook be waiting to turn the year will be updated before? In principle, what seems most obvious is the first option, but only the company has the answer to it and it would be a somewhat ugly move to update this MacBook before it is one year old, even if it is only its processor.

On the other hand and focusing on the fedback of users who do have one of these 12 ″ MacBook in their hands satisfaction is more than evident. They were the first to enjoy the Force Touch and it really is a sensation that cannot be compared with the 3D Touch of the iPhone 6s, it is different. The power of the computer has nothing to envy many computers and it is true that the numbers that were released are not the highest in terms of Mac's available, but for most users it is sufficient to have many tabs open and different processes without the Mac suffering or faltering.

The new MacBook is really light and portable, something that many users indicate makes them relegate the iPad to the background (the basic MacBook weighs the same as the first of the iPad) before the greater possibilities that are offered in OS X in addition to a better audio with Bluetooth and obviously a larger screen size.

The keyboard at first was an important change for users and although it is true that the sensations are very different, time is enough to adapt and this is confirmed by those who have been with this Mac since its launch. The single USB C port "forces" you to be more effective with cloud data and be careful when it comes to charging the Mac, since we lose the only port it has. On the other hand, this is solved with a hub adapter of the many that are already on the market, but if it is true whate Apple should have added a second port especially for the cargo issue.

More than 6 months have passed since your arrival to Apple stores and really my personal appreciation is that the lucky ones who bought this slim and beautiful Mac from the beginning are really surprised and satisfied with the purchase made and little or nothing are noticing those "low numbers" of Geekbench or similar that are published on the day of its launch. Despite the high investment that is necessary to make to buy this new Mac: 1.449 euros for the basic version or 1.799 euros for the more powerful version, it seems that general satisfaction with performance and so on is on top.
