I've only had mine for a few hours of use. Most of that time has been use installing software. I'm now downloading Office Beta.
It got hot while updating the OS and then running other installs. But it was only a small area of the bottom of the case, near the back edge. It did not get uncomfortable hot on my jeans. Maybe shorts would be a different story. But in general use it runs cool to warm.
Clean My Mac 3 runs fine, as does f.lux.
A couple of oddities at the Apple Store during the initial setup. First FileVault was on as default. Also for some reason we had to add another fake user, and then delete the fake user during some part of the initial setup. No it was not our mistake, the Apple guy said it was a anomaly that happened for everyone. Odd.
All in all I'm very happy with this purchase.
I was told not to set this up if I didn't absolutely have to.
I have been doing a lot of side by side with this mac and the rMBP. Obviously the pro will be more powerful, but I am noticing significantly more lag with the rMB. Even a simple thing like viewing photos is the photos app has noticable lag. I love the damn keyboard so much though.
Did you get the 1.1? I'm not getting any lag on Photos with the 1.2 and we have a lot of pictures. I'm also switching back and forth between the rMB and my 2012 rMBP 13 and if anything, the rMB feels snappier. Even the animations are more fluid.
FWIW, I'm not getting any lag at all on mine, and I've got the base model.
I DID have some minor stutter in webpages while I was setting it up, but you have to realize it was indexing, I had several programs simultaneously installing, I was streaming Spotify, and I was doing the system updates.
it is the 1.1
I really think it is the same UI lag that I experience on the rMBP. Maybe I am just more critical of the rMB b.c I have them both, and am mentally messing with myself haha.
I again cannot stress enough how much I love this keyboard. I basically just want to type stuff to type stuff for no reason at all....
I may have to reformat. I am having the read/write speeds others mentioned. Since updating to 10.10.3 the speed for read/write are 80/150![]()
Those speeds are way too low - something's not right.![]()
they were 500/1000, and as soon as I updated to 10.10.3 they dropped.
