When I took it to an Apple Authorized Repair shop, I was told I would have to pay £804 to get the display fixed – since I was out of warranty and didn’t have Apple Care+. Unsurprisingly, the entire screen went blank three days later. That was the moment I knew it would only last a few days at best. There was a small line going through the entire display. The top center of the display, just below the camera, turned purple, and some pixels looked completely dead. I just had to wait for my Mac to be built and shipped to me. I placed my order and trade-in on the same day, and it was smooth sailing from there. I was given a quote of £430 (~$570) for my machine at the time, which was competitive based on my research for a device with a display issue. I owned a 16-inch 2019 MacBook Pro, and while it worked well most of the time, it had a lot of performance issues due to throttling when connected to an external monitor, and the display was also broken. I was flabbergasted just by looking at the numbers – I’ve seen what the M1 MacBook Pro was capable of doing, and I was very impressed with Apple’s claims on performance improvements and endurance.Īfter spending the next two days convincing myself that I needed to get the new 16-inch model, I decided to use the Apple trade-in to recoup some of my investments. Apple just released the latest 16 and 14-inch MacBook Pros, and everyone is amazed by all the things that Apple just demoed during the keynote.
