The keyboard will get stuck
Even on its screen, the battery also swells
So all the items that need to be repaired are quoted
Today we will talk about this 2017
The 13-inch MacBook Pro has been used by me for about three years
So it is a relatively long-term review
Then share some experience
Problems encountered
And some repair
There are also some buying suggestions
Of course, I also want to make more videos like this
Just don't just talk about new products
Also talk about some experience of using Apple products for a long time
So if you like this kind of video, just help a like, subscribe
And share my video
OK, let's start directly
I bought this one in 2017
The specification I bought was the CPU, it seems to be the middle specification
Then I have the upgraded part
Just add 1TB to the hard drive
Then add the memory part to 16GB
Basically like this
Then I bought this one because I replaced the previous 15-inch
This is my previous 15-inch MacBook Pro from 2009
The previous advantage is that it is on the side of the connection hole.
Then firewire
Then connect the USB on the screen
Then the most important one is the fork slot of the memory card
At first
The first reason I want to replace it is old
Then I wanted to make some videos
I do n’t know why I insisted on shooting 4K
In fact, it can still be used on it or cut
Of course I did n’t add any special effects
Yes no
Then the problem lies in the output
A 10 minute can be output in the movie
9 hours and 55 minutes without special effects
No layer what
Then this one actually did some upgrades
I just replaced the hard drive inside with the ssd drive
I also removed it
Replace it with ssd so there are two solid state drives inside
So it was replaced with this one in 20117
The choice was actually 15 "or 13"
In fact, I was afraid of the big computer
So I locked in the 13-inch part
Then when I changed to this
I think the first thing to get used to is that he has only 4 USB-C left in all the holes
Then there is the Thunderbolt 3 jack
If you use some external expansion cable, it is basically okay.
I have an OWC Thunderbolt 3 Dock
So basically there is no inconvenience in my use
The only thing I do n’t understand is why they are not on it
Also added to the SD Card part
I think this point is that I do n’t know what they are insisting on
Because in fact there is this space to put
I bought an external monitor as soon as I bought this one
Because I think whether it is 13 inches or 15 inches today
If you really want to do something whether it is flat or editing
Anything
I think the screens of laptops are actually not very suitable
Can be used when it is badly needed
I mean i am good to you
Basically, it is still recommended to use an external screen
The other part about unaccustomed use is his keyboard
Then when they came out
Is what they say butterfly keyboard
What is so powerful and thin
It turns out that this keyboard is full of design flaws
Then they made a design update in 2018
Is the same as the butterfly keyboard
But they added a film to the part under their keyboard
That is basically to prevent some small dust
Small impurities fall into it
Make the keyboard unusable
Then it turned out that even if it was such an update
In fact, it is still not very helpful for its design flaws
So a wrong design
It doesn't matter how you change it afterwards
You can only change it
This is the first problem is that the keyboard is really not easy to use
So I still use one of my external keyboards
The other part is that this one has TouchBar on it
Then I must actually say
To be honest, at first it felt like a very dazzling feature
But if it is actually used
I don't actually rely on it too much
Because we are talking about some software like Final Cut or something
In fact, it already has some shortcut keys
Can be used on the reaction
Because you already have a memory in your head to say where each button is
In terms of the touchpad
It ’s a full-face touchpad
It ’s hard for you to find out where
On the other hand, it is said that the mouse now has many custom keys that can be placed on it
There are some basic clips
Or something needed
I will set it on the custom key
But I know he has many ways to set
Better touch tool on some software
Then I used it when I first bought it
That software to set up some custom functions
But then I found that there was a problem
I do n’t know if it ’s new or not
At least in my generation, its TouchBar
Often crash
When the time is up
I started to edit the TouchBar when it was overheating
Becomes that if
If there is some custom function between me
When I went to rely on TouchBar
Then he is either a computer crash or only TouchBar.
At this time, I can't use my custom function at all
So the habit is that I have just stopped using these customizations
TouchBar features
I connect an external screen
I wo n’t use touchbar even on it
That is the problem of long-term use
If I basically repair parts
Is actually the biggest problem of this generation
The first is the keyboard
The keyboard I just talked about will have a card key
Or when you press the button, you will get that question repeatedly
Then the second one is on his screen
There is also a recall
Is the corner part
Or some lines will come out
I don't have those lines
But my color in the corners ran away
So when I go to repair
Then I have AppleCare
Although the two parts I went to repair were the ones he recalled
When sent back for inspection
This is the shop I went to A13 last month
After he finished the inspection
For me, there was a trackpad
Its feedback is not quite right
Then there is him on the table
There will be a seesaw problem when going on
So after checking, it means that besides my keyboard and screen problems
The battery inside it also swells
Their way of saying is that it may be that I usually plug in the external screen
So he is always charging
May overheat this condition
Battery expansion is caused by squeezing
To this part of the track version
Because i have AppleCare
But basically this very interesting part is to say
If it wants to replace the keyboard
The way it changes the keyboard
Only the keyboard components are replaced
His keyboard is connected inside
In addition to the battery and trackpad, the main board and its bottom shell
It's a component
So today, even if I just replace the keyboard
I have a problem with the keyboard
Just replace the keyboard
It is also the entire component replaced
So this already contains the battery part
The second part is the screen
He also checked that there was a problem with the color of the corner screen
Then he also changed the screen
So it ’s outside the original motherboard inside me
There is also the bottom shell
It is basically a whole new one
So when it was checked, it was the same
Tell me which component needs to be replaced
Then let me see the price next to it
So I saw it was actually a bit nervous
Then in the end he said
Yes, Mr. because you have AppleCare
Plus these are the recalled parts
So they do n’t use any money.
If you have encountered the same situation
Even if you do n’t have AppleCare
Your condition is like a problem with the keyboard
There is a problem with the screen
Both of these are part of his recall
So even if you do n’t have AppleCare
As long as you buy this computer within 4 years, you can apply for replacement
Can get them in their shop to check them
Basically, I think they are quite wordy about this change
I left at about 11:30 that day and finished in 15 minutes.
Then they said it should be fixed in two or three days
Then at 5:30 pm that day, they called me and said they had changed
Then I can get it
So if the whole is down
I think I am basically quite satisfied with this one
Because I have done a lot for me in the past three years
Then I think the problem is small
I do n’t think I ’m going to look forward to today, that is, buying a computer
He has no problems at all
Because of this situation, I think sometimes it is just luck
But what I am expecting is that when I run into problems
This company can handle it for me
Don't make me think that it's just to buy something so expensive to work
Then when there is a problem, they are verbose
The whole experience is very bad
I haven't used a certain brand of PC before
It's a very big factory
Although they said everything about maintenance
It ’s just that you can see that the warranty is complete
Then there will be repairs
But when you actually want to do maintenance in this area
The overall experience is much different from using Apple products
My own experience is like this
ok of course that means I still recommend buying their products
Although you pay a little more at first
But I do n’t think we will talk about it in the long run
Is how the stability of the Mac itself compares with the PC
Of course, there is the entire ecological chain
If you also use other Apple products
I think your entire user software experience is very stable
Also very good
Another layer talks about after-sales service
At present, no computer or mobile phone factory can achieve this level
So you pay more in the beginning
I think it's worth the price
What's more, in fact, the current Apple products are not as expensive as everyone said
In fact, like many PCs, it is also very expensive
Many Android phones are basically more expensive than Apple's
Think about it when you pay this price
If you run into any problems, you can never run into problems
But when you run into problems
What kind of service method or service experience do you want to get
I think this can be considered
So today is roughly sharing this long-term sharing
I use this 13-inch experience
Although he is not perfect
But I am still very satisfied with him
I think he is very stable
Let me do a lot of work that I need to do
So I still highly recommend buying an Apple computer
Today's video is roughly like this
