We got a months of people who had never used the device, complaining bitterly about lack of RAM and USB-C and the cost and whatever else. But they had never touched one. I love now getting real reviews from real people who have used them. The 2016 MBP isn't for everyone. But for those that it is for, seems quite pleased. Why did so many people who had never used one people write/blog/YouTube so much negative stuff about it?
I imagine most people use the MBP for generic purposes like browsing, writing, watching movies, no real hardware professional use, so most people probably don't care if Apple decides to flood the market with just another dongle or limit them RAM. They just consume what they are given.
It's very reasonable to raise your concerns when you use the MBP for work like cutting, photography etc., because you have a certain workflow and set up going.
I think it is great that a lot of professional users wrote/blogged about it. It gave me a new perspective on things and how Apple uses dongles as another market revenue.
