This is my review of the 2019 base model 13" MacBook pro. In the video I talk about it's amazing value proposition since it now includes the touch bar and a quad core Intel Core i5 CPU.
**NOTE: In this review I didn't mention battery life at all, so I'll summarize my findings here. Battery life is good enough for a machine with this much horsepower. On an average day it will last me all day, while on heavier days it will only last me until I get home from school which I suppose is good enough. For example, my heaviest usage day included some video editing, light gaming, photo editing and web browsing and I made it home at 4pm with 7% left. Not the best battery life that can be had, but if you were after that you already would have bought the MacBook Air.
