MacBook Pro with Touch Bar was launched by the Apple company during this autumn, and the response of customers vis-à-vis the product was as mixed as possible. Some praised Apple's intentions to integrate new technologies into its products, while others criticized the company for the way it conceived the new product available in markets around the world.
According to those from Microsoft, the MacBook Pro with Touch Bar is a disappointment for those who were waiting for an update for this series of Apple products. The disappointment is so great, that the number of people who have made the transition from Mac to Microsoft Surface is higher than in any other year since the launch of these products by those from Redmond.
Those from Microsoft say that many professionals who were waiting for a truly spectacular MacBook Pro, chose instead to switch to the Microsoft Surface. More than that, more and more people are recommending giving up Apple products in favor of those from Microsoft, which is easy to believe, despite the Touch Bar offering and all its novelties.

Many people think that Apple has lost touch with reality and customers who use MacBook Pro for photo/video editing and more. Apple was heavily criticized because instead of implementing more RAM, it chose to offer a Touch Bar, which does not replace the needs in terms of processing power.
"More people are switching from Macs to Surface than ever before. Our trade-in program for MacBooks was our best ever, and the combination of excitement for the innovation of Surface coupled with the disappointment of the new MacBook Pro – especially among professionals – is leading more and more people to make the switch to Surface, like this. It seems like a new review recommending Surface over MacBook comes out daily.”
Just as Apple boasts that it attracts more and more Android customers to the iPhone, Microsoft boasts that it attracts more and more Mac users to the Surface. The reality is that although Apple boasts of spectacular sales for the new MacBook Pro, it seems that there are also many customers who give up their Macs in favor of the Surface.
