Pros:
-Very snappy
-Gorgeous display (and bright, I rarely need full brightness on this thing)
-Keyboard (I like it). This was actually a big concern of mine as I didn't care for the 12" Macbook keyboard I tried in the stores a while back. But this keybosard grew on me after a few hours of use, and now I like it. To me, the keys feel noticeably better than those on the 12" Macbooks. Apparently the keys have 0.55mm of travel, which is next to nothing, but they do feel punchy and responsive.
-Very lightweight @ 3 lbs
-Long battery life: I get the advertised 10 hours, and then some.
-Very quiet: I can barely hear the fan when it's going. This is a big change from my 2013 15" rMPB which constantly sounded like a jet engine.

Cons:
-Should have been released a year ago, or at least earlier this year (2016). I would have felt better about the price point, especially now that we have Kaby Lake processors coming soon.
-Ports, ports.. I will mostly miss MagSafe (looking forward to some creative USB-C magnetic mid-cable or charger-side solutions). I will be needing a few USB-C cables/dongles, but I can see where technology is going and I get it. I do wish Apple had left a USB-A port, or included a dongle, or something to appease the "Pro" crowd.
-Minor detail, but I prefer half-height left and right arrow keys on the keyboard. Easier to quickly find the arrows that way. I'm guessing they did away with that for visual symmetry.
