Reviews around performance (4.20 of 5)

  • I just wanted to increase the memory of my computer without problems, the performance is super remarkable, and all of my OS X is working like I expected.
  • Swapped out the original 2Gb x 2 on my early 2011 MBP with these upgrade memory modules, and great performance so far
  • Afterwards, I began to use it a bit more, but was constantly frustrated by slow performance.
  • i have aftermarket 8GB RAM already (Amazon purchase) and it improved performance over the 4 that came in the mac, but this just did not work
  • Works a charm to boost performance if you're macbook is lacking free memory.

Reviews around upgrade (4.11 of 5)

  • Great upgrade to a 8 year old MacBook Pro that have brought it back to life
  • All that aside, this is a great upgrade if you want to give your older MacBook Pro a performance boost, especially for the price.
  • 4g is really frustrating even for the average user just browsing the internet and checking email
  • I would definitively recommend this upgrade and this RAM.
  • I found mixed reviews about the Corsair, but overall all hardware components fail at some time and some systems just reject the upgrade

Reviews around computer (3.10 of 5)

  • Got these as a Christmas gift for my wife, who typically has 20+ windows and 5-8 apps open at a time on her MacBook Pro - and is always complaining about how slow her computer is
  • Before moving from 4GB to 16GB, my computer would be consistently slow when keeping apps open
  • Shipped fast, went in very easily, computer is much much faster now well worth the money for my mac mini
  • It originally came with 4 GB of memory and with the latest macOS upgrade, it turned my computer so slow, I couldn't do anything with it.
  • It seems like the computer got a little faster but that was nothing really noticeable

Reviews around apple (2.82 of 5)

  • Apple's website lied to me saying 8GB max when in my photos you can clearly see it recognizes all 16GB
  • While it is not Apple approved, it is well vetted by folks that know about Macs
  • I have both and there is a distinct difference - nevertheless - this product works as it should and makes a noticeable difference in speed from the 4g I upgraded from.
  • didn't work, although, Apple has lost my business.
  • I did it mostly to give Apple one less excuse to deny me future warranty coverage under AppleCare, but I kind of regret that decision
