Awesome piece of hardware.

It's been more than a year. Best laptop within budget. Just upgrade RAM to 8GB and the machine will rock. I'm using this laptop for Python/Django development.

Battery backup is more than 7 hours, no heating problem, sometime, I use this for 2 days continuously.

Suggestion for a developer: Don't upgrade your OS until and unless you know how to setup environment variable, lot of development environments will break because of an upgrade. Factory installed OS is more than enough for you.

The deal is a steal

I have been a long time Mac user - from 2008, to be precise. It is no wonder that my past three laptops and a desktop have all been Mac's. And, being a world famous product, the review is not about the macbook pro at all.

Instead, I want to just point out the advantages of this deal. A recent release (retina screen / SSD) Macbook Pro costs close to 1L. This mid 2012 system, new-in-box costs only 62000 INR on the other hand. If it seems like a bad compromise, these are the upgrades I did to ...

Just Go For It

I ordered on 24th December with in-a-day guarantee and got it the very next day on Christmas.


A quick edit on the specs:

The OS offered is Mountain Lion (10.8.3) not Lion (10.7) with a free upgrade to OS X Mavericks (10.9).


User Experience:

All those Windows users, reluctant to changeover and think that Apple is just another elite brand asking too much for a low-spec laptop, just try once. I guarantee that you won't be disappointed with MacBook Pro. You have to use it to get acquainted ...

great product

you have mentioned the specification wrongly, please do change it, or some customer would file a suit against you, don't break your reputation yourself.

but this product is a great one, i have been using it for more than 1 year, great to use and love it.

mac book buyers, initially you would face some effort, because everyone is used with cramped windows, but soon you would start hating windows, and love this great product.

Good Entry Level Laptop

If you just wanna say Hi to the macbook world without making your pockets an empty nest, this is just the laptop for you. This mac is running the latest OS X and has a Nice, Vibrant Coloured Display. It supports all the Latest and Greatest Features and provide a Nice and Clean User Experience. App Launching times are little higher as Compared to the newer Laptops but again these are Just Fine.
i am in love with this mac. and surely you'll be too.

Great Deal and great product.

Product is great and received in original packing. Also I did my laptop buyback which was great deal as well. Frist time some big electric online purchase in India and I was amazed with delivery speed, notifications and overall service. I am going to upgrade my MacBook with 16gb RAM from Kingston to improve overall performance of the machine.

level 1 for apple

This is the exact product which i got around 2 months back, this is not a retina display but ppl for whom this is the first macbook, they ll surely love tis.

ppl who love mac and those who use laptop just to use as a browser, music player and for watching movies can definitely go for this. The picture clarity and the sound clarity is really amazing. I actually tried the beats headset wit this macbook and its was just awesome.

ppl who are professional is not advisable, cause its a low end sp...

Very good and worth for this price

I was reading through reviews and was skeptical about buying this MBP.
Using this since one week and here are mt observations :
1) Screen is really good. (If you are watching 1080p videos, you won't feel it's a non Retina model)
2) 3rd Generation intel i5 processor is good for day to day tasks.
3) 4GB RAM is sufficient if you use normal applications with lots of chrome tabs opened.
4) Keyboard is awesome and backlit is adjustable. You can turn it off or adjust it's brightness.
5) Graphics ca...

Just Cause the New Macs don't support RAM Upgrade

Went for this one as I had the 15 inch i7 earlier, which is not available anymore.
Got this, put the old 8 gig ram and works just as good, Just haven't tried running After Effects, Premier Pro to check performance.

Had some issues with third party apps, this comes with the new OS versions, I'm happy with Lion and there are many reliable apps out there that get all the functionalities as the new OS versions.

Delivered on Time, flawless experience. Thinking of getting another 8 gig RAM to mai...

Awesome & Genuine product

I received it within a day of ordering.
Initially I visited a Apple re-seller to check the price, and performance - the guy over there told me a price of about 59k. He was trying to persuade me by saying if I buy online, I won't get 1 year warranty, plus they won't come with the latest Mac OS installed.
Of course its up-gradable now-a-days, but I was a bit skeptical, since I would have had to download the update again.

But after receiving this product I can say that this is 100% genuine, and...
