    If you already own the M1 Pro/Max, you can skip this generation. It's still a great upgrade for those that are coming from an older laptop and the battery life is INSANE! Make sure you check out Notion if you want to up your productivity game as well: ntn.so/karlai

      I personally wouldn't trade the M1 for the M2. From the reviews I have seen /read I would rather stick to the m1

      Most of the people who reviewed this macbook when using Max processor talked about battery life, they don't read the fine print. It's says Pro chip whereas it can do up to 22 hours, not the Max version. Please and please don't confuse your viewers

      I upgraded from a late 2013 16” MacBook Pro to the new 16” M2 Max MacBook Pro. The difference is night and day. However one thing I think Apple is not doing very well is the trade in. I tried to do a trade in for my old MacBook and they basically said we’ll recycle it for you. My old MacBook may be worthless to Apple but giving older macbook owner like myself a trade in value would entice them more to buy a new M2 MacBook Pro, especially when the prices here in the U.K. have gone up by almost £500 for the 38GPU M2 Max

    I have the 16" M2 Max with 32 GB of RAM and a 38-core GPU. This thing absolutely rips through the most compressed formats on my FX3 in Davinci. With the addition of HDMI 2.1, this is now the perfect laptop for me. Don't see myself needing to upgrade for 3+ years.

    I ended up getting the m2 pro max 16 inch because I had some gift cards plus student discount that would bring down the cost. I’m actually really glad I did this because I truly feel like this is a laptop that will stand the test of time. I feel like there was a span of time where I purchased three laptops over a year and half because they didn’t meet my needs and couldn’t handle my workload. I’m not even doing anything crazy. this laptop is incredible and I’m super pleased with it.

    I have the M1 Mac Mini and it's been a great little system. I do wish it had a little more horsepower for video editing. It can kinda get in it's own way at times if I start adding effects to my clips.
    I'm gonna wait until at LEAST the M3 Pro/Max Macbook Pros to upgrade.

    What a beast, especially when I compare it to my previous 16" Intel MBP from 2020.

    Careful, it's hard to recommend the base 512GB SSD since it's only one chip, and it's approximately half the speed of the 1TB option. Users who seriously need the juice that a MBP can give should avoid the base SSD like the plague. I would have expected you to mention this!

    • @Dsandles47
      @Dsandles47 ปีที่แล้ว

      Which is why he said “I’d personally recommend.” People who “seriously need the juice that a MBP can give” would have the sense to pick a higher-spec variation that better reflects their needs. His personal recommendation is for everyone else who doesn’t fit that profile-those who might be purchasing it for school or for other non-power-necessary use cases.

    The m2max is relevant only for GPU tasks thanks to moar coarz, otherwise most tasks can barely saturate 200GB/s bandwidth which is what the M2pro offers with an identical CPU.

      If you use a fan control when you are doing heavy workload, and start the fan before you run the app, then the Mac does not reach the high thermals it does when using Apple's fan curve.

    Everyone is giving advice about getting an external hard drive, but why? An external hard drive is cheaper, yes... but on a portable device carrying around an external hard drive is bulkier and it is also slower than the internal hard drive. I think if you are going to pay for an external hard drive just pay the extra and get the bigger internal hard drive, save on the bulk on a portable device. I can understand an external hard drive for the stationary mini or studio since they don't move and bulk is less of a problem.

    • @rljmofokeng
      @rljmofokeng ปีที่แล้ว

      The Apple Tax on the RAM and Storage is crazy and probably not worth it in most cases. Its more cost effective to get (even high speed) external SSDs
      Seprare storage is a lot more flexible as well, will work with multiple devices (If formatted correctly), making switching devices when youupgrade from one machine to another much easier.
