MacBook Pro? No
I have the exact opposite experience so far. By all means, this is a <i>professional</i> laptop in my opinion.<p>To expand a bit:<p>- I love the keyboard, best I&#x27;ve seen on a laptop (I&#x27;m a 80+ WPM typist)<p>- I don&#x27;t have issues with the touchbar, getting used to quickly manage apps like spotify.<p>- My default editor is vim and don&#x27;t have issues with escape<p>- Trackpad is the best I&#x27;ve seen on a laptop<p>- The machine is fast<p>- The screen is amazing<p>- Battery life is decent<p>ps. On the other side, I don&#x27;t have experience working on a high-end XPS&#x2F;Thinkpad, but the main reason to buy is the OS. My workflow and tools are tailored around the mac. It&#x27;s not that I can&#x27;t find my way through Linux or even a BSD Laptop running i3. It&#x27;s that I don&#x27;t want to.
