QUOTE(biruNippon @ Sep 15 2019, 08:40 PM) So is a potential scam isn't it? Seller claim is new but cannot go to Apple store for warranty claim hmm. the price is cheaper than education store somemore. Most probably a used device, Apple product will never go too much of the price range and it will stay stable even after years and years.

After all, it is a MBP, buy it, use it and love it. Although you may be skeptical, Apple keyboard repair program is in place for its customers.

Hi all, may I know is there any difference between buying from apple online and walk in to resellers like machines or switch? I see the price is the same for MBP. Thanks

Hopefully can get back the signature glow or more eye catching then the current design yes, already 4 years since the last redesigned. but i think apple will unlikely to do major redesign. maybe just keyboard changed, display change (to mini-LED or OLED etc.) or just making the bezel of the display thinner like the rumoured 16" macbook pro that is going to launch end of this month. macbook pro is always my favourite laptop to use. once you get used to macbook pro, you can never go back to any windows laptop that has mediocre display, keyboard and touchpad. haha.
