If given a choice, will you buy your MacBook Pro Retina Display from Machines or Epi Centre or any others to recommend?

Looking for friendly and good customer service.

Thanks

i would get it from Apple directly through the online store.
when it comes to reseller, theyre all the same, since warranty doesnt have to be send back to them, it doesnt make a difference where you're buying it from.

Why did you guys said we won't bother to put casing/protection? Is it not important? Sorry, newbies here. Hehe

it will add bulkiness to a thin beautifully designed rMBP.
better to use sleeves when moving around and naked when using it

Thanks for the feedback. I'm just wondering whether it is safer to ship the new Macbook Pro to a Reseller shop or directly to my house? What if it's lost? It's gonna cost RM 7000+.

Did you buy online? How was the experience?

Thanks
*
you cant ship to the reseller, have to be your own address.
how can it go missing? shocking.gif
even if it does, it will be insured.
i bought 2 rMBP from online store, delivered on time and everything in good condition

I bought it online (Mid 2012 model).

When i got it the battery capacity is at 98% not 100% and the cycle count is 0.

At first it does up and and down ard 94%-96% never reach 98%.

But now it keep on dropping never goes up.

I only play dungeon hunter on my MBP aircon environment sometime no aircon but not under the sun.

you should do a battery calibration

Hello there guys, i got a question. The mac in my college has this function whereby when I plug a pendrive in, the drive icon will appear in the desktop.

But this doesn't happen to my macbook pro running mountain lion. Is there any option to activate this? I don't seem to be able to locate it. Sorry Im new to Mac!

Added on September 10, 2012, 11:50 amanyone of u bought screen protector for ur rmbp? where can i get it? tongue.gif

i doubt that anyone is using screen protector on rMBP, just not necessary for a laptop at the first place.
and once putting it, you'll lose some clarity making it not retina anymore

I receive a surprise small letter/slip from Apple for my rmbp.

"Dear C....

This SIRIM label is provided to you with assurance that the product meets the quality requirements of the specific standard specification, and the product is a genuine Apple product supplied to you directly from manufacturer.

Thank You."

The picture upper right corner of the slip with SIRIM sticker.

I dunno if any other PC maker will do this. They are very detail with things, right down to a SIRIM Sticker.  thumbup.gif

is it worth to get it or get model 2012?

or mbp 15" 2011 2.0 i7 which rm4299.

any suggestion? but i not sure 15" still available or not.

it depends what you use it for.
main difference for 2012 and 2011 MBA is the support of USB3.0 and faster SSD, others are just minor

i bought my 1st mac 5 yrs ago from the lowyat reseller, cant rmb the name.
now i want to get a new mbp for mountain lion (they don't let me upgrade on my current machine)
coz i rmb i read some of the forumer post his usb slot is burned up and he have to replaced with price of 5k

lol...i worried if i found have defect, the reseller side need to wait for verification, contact with apple HQ, drag here drag there and takes 1/2 months ...  sweat.gif

if you find defects before you leave the store, they will replace it on the spot.
if you've left the store and later noticed defect, this depends on the reseller if they want to replace it or claim warranty.
if you purchase from Apple Online Store, theres a 14 Days exchange policy.
regarding the usb slot burnt reported by the forumer, it has nothing to do with reseller.
its actually the service provider that caused the problem, and also that unit has already exceeded the exchange period so it has to be send it for warranty claim
