The missteps of those intel MacBooks are undeniable, but I also feel like the new design feels very safe and unambitious. There is the huge notch. The 16" model is (given screen and battery size) 35% heavier than competitors and not exactly a joy to lug around. The keycaps continue to be made of subpar ABS getting a oily look within mere month of usage. The use of space inside is not very efficient compared to previous models.

That's exactly why I love it.

Happy to have an unambitious reliable workhorse where the battery lasts two days.

I'd actually be happier if it was even less ambitious, and made the graphics bits less powerful. But that would likely be a bad business move.
