The iMac Pro and MacBook Pro 2018 are at the center of major problems reported by Apple customers, which are unusual for such products.

iMac Pro MacBook Pro 2018 MAJOR Issues Customers

iMac Pro si MacBook Pro 2018 have a series of major problems reported by Apple's customers, both products being very expensive, but apparently with quite a few problems. Specifically, customers of these Apple computer models report that they encounter many kernel panic, i.e. computer crashes similar to those that display blue screens in Windows.

It is not known for sure what the problem is behind these iMac Pro and MacBook Pro 2018 errors, but most of those who have inspected the macOS logs blame the new T2 chip. This T2 chip is implemented by Apple to secure the boot partition of macOS, to provide the Hey Siri function, to secure storage media, etc., it comes with a separate operating system that interacts with macOS through Bridge OS.

It seems that this Bridge OS is actually the big problem of the iMac Pro and MacBook Pro 2018, and those who disabled the entire system claim that the problems disappeared completely. The Apple company seems to be aware of these problems, and in the latest version of macOS, the Apple company updated the kernel, and although the problems have become rarer, they have not disappeared.

"Looking at the Kernel Panic dumps, looks like someone may have been working on it, as the Kernel Version got bumped from 17.3.0 in January to 17.4.0 yesterday and it feels like I'm seeing fewer panics. Where it used to panic once or twice a day it now appears to panic once or twice per week."

iMac Pro and MacBook Pro 2018 are "high-end" products of the Apple company, with very high prices, and problems of this kind certainly upset a lot of people. Of course, not all customers have problems, but even so, it is enough that even a small number of people report these problems, so that others avoid buying the products.
