Consumer Reports now recommends MacBook Pro with Touchbar

Consumer Reports received a lot of flak for their initial decision to not recommend the new MacBook Pro with Touchbar on the basis of erratic battery performance.

"With the updated software, the three MacBook Pros in our labs all performed well, with one model running 18.75 hours on a charge. We tested each model multiple times using the new software, following the same protocol we apply to hundreds of laptops every year," the report said.

It must be mentioned that these tests don't reflect real world usage but are used to get a sense of how the notebooks perform in relation to previously tested products.
