The Ultra will be out of this world.
I wasn't expecting this level of performance, already.
Agreed, I’m waiting for the Mac Studio Ultra. 👍🏽👍🏽
@@mochachaiguy Same story every year. High end Mac buyer gets top model then that top model gets beaten out in a year or so by a machine half the price. Trust me the M3 Ultra complaints will be coming in when M4 comes out.
the M5 Max Macbook pro will be just as powerful as a M3 Ultra maxed out chip in 2 years!! Crazy crazy performance!
@@AnonymousBoss1 The M4 Max might be even.
@@vlcheish It's more than just peak performance though. Those are workstations, If you look at 9:20 and 10:02, for extended, multi-hour workloads, The M2 Ultra handily beats the M3 max by a decent margin, even the M1 ultra beats the M3 max in most extended tests and has a tie/draws at worst....Many youtube creators are mostly doing tests that last less than 10 minutes......The laptops will eventually throttle a bit but the Ultra models won't, they have bigger, beefier coolers, power supplies and fans....not to mention, double the display engines, double the thunderbolt ports, double the amount of displays.....the M3 ultra will also support 256GB of memory....that plus 24 performance cores and 8 efficiency cores.....all that memory and cores are great for running multiple Virtual machines on up to 8 monitors.....Are the M-Ultra's overpriced, absolutely.....but they still have their place for those who need them.
As always-some of the most stylish, impeccably shot and edited footage in any review, bar none. Excellent work, as always!
came to the comments to say the same thing. One of my new favourite reviewers.
iAgree
I love what you are doing with them mini intros, spectacular!
Your channel should be MUCH larger. Amazing production value as always!
dude he already has 638,000 subscribers that a LOT!!!
@@AnonymousBoss1 I was gonna say the same thing - half a million+ subs is not a small channel!
@@chilled99he past 12+ years on youtube and you know his videos are very detailed and needs so much effort. I think he deserves more than half a mill subs 😊
Impressive Faruk, thanks. Still sticking with my base m1 pro, but for my use case it's still perfect. Nice to see this wasn't a mere spec bump like many thought.
Best wishes to those who are going with the best and brightest of M3. It should serve you for a long time. I think this one is for the Intel holdouts. Join us.
You said the same thing about m1 max. And now the base m3 matches it
@@eugeneputin1858I did? When? Quote me.
Not many intel users have that much money. That’s why they still have intel til this day.
I am just waiting for more games to come to M3. If this happens I ll switch from PC inshAllah.
@@LivingCurios what's inshallah? Never heard of that manufacturer before
Wow !
Thanks for all your work, it really helped!
M3 Max is remarkable, I can't wait to see M3 Ultra on MacStudio 2024!
That's gonna be an impressive beast!!
First review of this maxed out one...good work!!!
What a great review. So full and complete. Love this Channel
again the most thorough and colorful video out here!!!! so good!
It baffles me how you aren't in the Millions of subscribers.
Great storyteller! Great production and technicality.
Great review. I have a M1 Max MacBook Pro. It's the only laptop I need at the moment. Looking forward to the M3 Ultra Mac Studio. Great production as usual on this video. Really appreciate your effort.
I love when you do videos you are one of the first TH-camrs I started following. Just wanted to show you some love.
The editing and camera work is the real star here!
Thank you Faruk. SUPERB video. You convinced me to upgrade further from a 2 TB SSD to the 4 TB SSD. I want plenty of overhead given the cost of the M3 Max beast!
Thanks for the video. The M3 family looks very impressive. I’m ok for a while with my M1 Max Mac Studio but the day I upgraded will be getting some nice improvements.
Btw I did watch you Sony AC II video and wanted to say thank you for taking the time to still do in depth camera reviews. I love them and it’s a shame they don’t get as many views as phones or laptop videos but I really appreciate your dedication to camera stuff for the ones we appreciate them.
Just ordered the same spec, price is a bit silly but can't skimp on tools for work! Im happy with my m2 just wish i speced it with more memory! Buy cheap buy twice!
You bought twice anyway :P
@@FloatingOnAZephyr yeah i know, because i bought cheap 1st time. Well done!
@@KevinTalbotTVI'm sure it was cheap as chips. Was just teasing you bud,.
How cheap was it?
@@FloatingOnAZephyryou weren’t teasing. Admit it. You didn’t understand him the first time around 😂
That colors, quality of the video... You are the BEST!
Excellent review buddy and super quality visuals and audio too..thanks
Blender is not optimized for the m3 ray tracing yet; Blender will add MetalRT, mesh shading, dynamic caching at some point and only then there will be the best results for 3d apps.
No No. When your mac is not that fast is not optimization.
Its funny how fanboys blame optimization when they feel scammed cos the mac is not fast as expected.
in this video (in german) an M3 max reaches the same performances of an RTX4070 and is close to an RTX3090. Blender is optimized for Metal RT as far as I read on the web, but it has to be activated in the options. Is still is more expensive than a cheap PC with the same RAW performances, but not
so much if you compare it with Dell's high-end laptops and seems promising for people who love the mac's battery life and design, and/or do photo/video editing and, seldom, 3D.
Great video - thanks for keeping it data-based on the comparisons and keeping the subjective stuff to a minimum - that's helpful. Your video LOOKS and sounds great too - nice work! Subscribed. :)
Great review! Thanks!
Amazing review as always, thank you!
I love how much you love Apple devices (i feel the same with your camera reviews). It's so enjoyable to watch when someone who wants to be impressed, wants to love a device, and then the device delivers on his expectations. Even if a viewer wasn't a fan of Apple (which I'm guessing most viewers of a channel with iPhone in his name probably likes Apple products), it still must be fun watching someone else having so much fun. It's much more enjoyable than some other channels that do whatever they can to find a problem with a device and focus on that alone, while ignoring anything positive about it. Thanks for another outstanding video, iPhonedo. Just like this MacBook exceeded your expectations, your videos always exceed mine. Have a great night man.
Nicely done as always!
Thank you for this review, and for your infectious enthusiasm. I have today ordered the 14-inch MacBook Pro M3 Max.
Hello there,
May I ask what version of Blender did you use to run the benchmark?
There is a huge feature coming for RT capable M3's in Blender 4.0 that will dramatically speedup the compute and I was hoping to see it in action.
I think it can be enabled in current 3.6.5 version in the settings, but it's still considered an experimental feature.
Thank you very much !
Always great to watch a review from you. Thank you! I'm torn between a Mac Studio and a Macbook to replace my current desktop PC. Already use an M1 Max Macbook Pro for work, but need something at home that I can call my own.
Thank you, best reviews!
Fantastic video. Truly enjoyed it. Thank you! It totally supported my assumptions of M3. Can’t wait for my M3 Max/ 128GB / 4TB SSD / Space Black system to arrive. I’m upgrading from an M1 Max.
For years I hated Apple MacBooks but ever since M1, I’ve been absolutely hooked.
I am getting same CPU but 64 GB ram and 2 TB machine. That is what I can afford. I am using it mostly for machine learning and chemical engineering modelling software (Aspen, Sima Pro). Do you think it is a suitable choice for my application? I think it might be overkill but I want a powerful machine that will last (not looking to upgrade for at least 5 years). I also want the added benefit of being able to edit and render footage seamlessly and maybe get into 3D modelling on Blender. Let me know what you think.
@@nicolavoiculescu4769 don’t know if this is a serious question or not. Neither Aspen nor Sima Pro offer native MacOS applications. Not sure why you’d want to run either one of those apps on Mac.
14 or 16? I want what you’ve got minus the 128ram. 48 is enough for me. I’d love the 8tb of ssd but it’s so expensive and considering an external hub like LaCie big dock 32tb. But idk. I also want the 16 to double up with my Apple display as a secondary monitor but I don’t know how unportable it is. Apparently the speakers is better on the 16z. Only time will tell
Get the same system but in silver
Can’t wait either. Best m3 Max Video so far.
I'm so happy to see the Blender test go well! I'm into 3D animation and coding. I've been wanting a laptop that can run on battery and have power to render even on battery since I use public commute a lot and sometimes in some places there's no way to charge. I want to go in a library to get in the focus zone. Or just work on my desk at home. I'll definitely be saving up for this laptop and make sure I get the extra RAM and storage in there.
Good test. What would be interesting to me is how often do the fans come on, how high do they turn and what is the temperature on the case.
I like the color grading in this video well all his videos has a amazing quality that make me want to watch them over and over again.
Hi! Thank you for your video! Did you notice any thermal throttling? Have you tried using it with some external monitors and experience some kind of lag, hot temperature or stuff like that?
Best review for video editors hands down. Awesome!!
Thank you so much 😊
As someone who purchased their first M1 Macbook Pro 13 inch about 4 months ago, I realllllllyy wish more people had liked the touchbar. It has become an invaluable feature for my music production as I no longer have to carry around a separate midi keyboard or be forced to use keyboard keys for playing notes. I don't think I will be upgrading until they bring that feature back which based on how much people hated on it will likely have to be in the form of having both the function row and touchbar at the same time so people can have the best of both worlds. For now M1 does all I need it to do for a reasonable price.
As you said, the real problem was the removal of the F keys. As a software developer, Function keys are indispensable for me. If the two were used together, touchBar could create a revolution. But in its current state, it is nothing more than a useless toy for us.
users base of that touchbar are too minor to bring back to even add as an option
@drissalaoui9674 I'm sure apple likes to make money so maybe they will have a separate option in the cart to have touchbar Macs as a buy in option. Just make them as people order them. But you might be right
Say what? I do music production and I haven’t really noticed my Touch Bar tbh. How do you get the notes on the touchscreen?
My god, Apple should hire you to do all their product video's. Amazing quality visuals and lighting!!
it is very likely that they already did, nice videos!
Amazing as usual, thank you for being awesome :)
Thank you for your kind words!
Got the M3 Pro , excited for tomorrow.
What’s the memory u got for your MacBook?
I think there's something you don't like about the iPhone 15s. We are looking forward to that video too. 🌟
very good review, thank you
what a genius video & review!
Love your set up
Would you recommend upgrading to this from the M1 Ultra Studio (Base Model)
I think That i will wait till M7. Thanks for so Much value of Info in That Video , May God Bless You So much
Great review and explained details!
How were you able to play high-res games on it?
Best reviews on YT, thanks Faruq!
Thank you :)
Faruk is one man army, his videos are MKBHD quality but with 95% workflow optimization.
what about battery life, fan speed and noise? how hot does it get?
great review
What a great sequence between 01:08 and 01:21 😮 you can be the most perfectionist person in the world. And you’re not ‘try’ to make perfect, you always do perfect 👌🏼
Can we just take a moment to appreciate the work, the skill and the enthusiasm that has gone in to this video.
"can we.." awaits obligatory likes.
reis great video. thanks for giving us a change to see the device we wont be able to buy lol. that said, have you given up on the iphone 15 video? :(
Man, it was awesome. I'm watching your videos to make English practice; Although you originally Türk you speak more than many native speakers :)
Nice work on your review.
Can you do the test of running Stable Diffusion and DiffusionBee on that Beautiful beast? I kinda curious how much ram that it use when it comes to AI related topic.
Thank you 🥳
Thank you for a good review video. Can you say anything, or do any recommendation on a lower speced M3, like the 14" M3 Pro, 14 core, 18 gig versus the M2 Max Studio 30core 32 gigs please.
I really want the Studio with the updated M3, but my trusty old iMac 27" is lagging behind and I do have to invest in a new system this fall.
Great stuff, I have ordered the same specs in 14"
So how can I calibrate the new display to be 120 cd2 so I can use Lightroom and Capture One without the screen being super bright. Does anyone know if there’s actually a way to calibrate the screen and turn off true tone
This video is crazy sharp
That Intro 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Hope you made it to the FCPX summit
Watching this outside of the conference centre waiting for registration to open
Now I’m at the part where you go through FCPX benchmarks
Also, I have the 2020 refresh of the 2019 MacBook Pro 8 core with the 5600m graphics so I’m excited to consider finally upgrading to Apple Silicon with the maxed out one you have in this video!
Your intro looks fantastic!
Thank you 😊
Wow, i love the maxed out version, that was AWESOME😮😮😮
Ordering mine next week!
When testing in blender did you enable metalRT? it's supposed to already be on in blender 4.0, but not sure if you used that version. The RT cores won't be in use unless that's enabled.
Disappointed that they only included AV1 hw decoder and not an encoder. If you want to use a Mac to stream games to others you either have to use the low quality h.264 hardware encoder, the better hevc hw encoder that limits you to TH-cam streaming, or a slow CPU based AV1 encoder. Granted the SVT-AV1 cpu encoder is pretty fast, but is the quality that much better than x264 during real time encode?
Essentially the AV1 decoder in the M3 Apple Silicon will only help with playback performance and battery life when watching other people stream. Hopefully the M3 Ultra will add AV1 hw encoding.
Hello mr iphonedo, i have made a mistake, i also have a m3 max but this is a "binned" version, i have less cpu cores and gpu cores, should i trade it in while i can or not? Is the difference worth it? Thx
I'm excited for this machine!
Your video quality is out of this world...tell me more....
Here I am, got a MacBook Air 15 8gb/512gb ssd 2 months ago for the bigger size, never had a pro before. Now I got a video production job and we shoot with Sony Cinema cameras and since my friend liquid damaged my mea, I got the maxed out 16 inch for video editing, AI/ML training for my CS Course as well as software development. Overkill but it's such a beast I'll never regret it. The only thing I do regret is the wait times, mine arrives on the 15th of January :((
Epic intro music! Epic I tell ya!
❤️❤️❤️
My MB Air M2 throttles over 30% without cooling when running intensive tasks like Topaz Video AI. Added cooling pads inside and put it on a fan. The MB pro M3 has a fan (?) Does it run 100%, or does it throttle as well ? Running time here is 24/7 at max.
Can you share a link for that blender file?
Anything new in the speakers?
I've been editing with an external flash drive, and I've been debating getting the 8TB drive for peace of mind. You've convinced me to get the 8TB! Thanks!
You're going to love it.
When you were gaming, was the noise we heard rain from the game, or fan noise?
Thanks for the informative and tasteful video 🙏
Does this fan come on a good deal when gaming?
I did an 8K VR video and 8K 2D on my basic M1 MacBook Pro no problem. Best computer I've ever bought and silent.
What’s the memory (ram) u got?
@2:55 Disk Speed.. If I choose 4tb ssd instead of 8TB, rest all same configuration. Will the write speed will the be same? as shown in your video 8300 approx? or I need to buy 8tb ssd to get the same write speed like yours? Let me know.
Hi Faruk this video is great as always.
dude i've been watting for 15 pro max video to either buy it or pass it please relase it asp can't wait anymore.
well i don't think you'll see it soon 😁 was also waiting that, but seeing how fast he is reviewing stuff that is released, i doubt the iphone 15 will be in the spotlight soon enough
My favorite tech reviewer!!!!
How to get one before the release date? :)
Hey Faruk, what was the full spec of the M2 Ultra Mac Studio that you used in the comparisons?
Can't wait for your iPhone 15 Pro video. The suspense is killing me!
The videography.
Pure art!
❤
Thank you 🙏
Amazing review as always! I did the biggest mistake ever and bought a M1 Air with just 8 GB of ram for some video editing (while waiting for the M2 which I never bought). LOVE the machine - but should soooo have gotten at least 16 GB ram. Now I wanna go pro - but have two question: 1) How much RAM is needed? 128 GB sounds like A LOT (and is crazy expensive). 2) Fan noise! I got the M1 Air after having a fully specd Macbook Intel which sounded like an airplane. It seems as if the fans in the M3 Max are pretty loud too in your gaming test of the machine. How bad is it when rendering and for everyday use?
Most pro editing apps recommend minimum 32GB of RAM, so 36GB version of the M3 MB Pro 14 Max would be a good choice.
Go with at least 32GB, maybe even 48 or 64GB
Excellent
Faruk Bey öncelikle detaylı inceleme ve emeğiniz için teşekkürlerimi sunuyorum. PC'den ilk kez Macbooka'a geçiş yapan birisi olarak 16" Macbook M3 48 Gb ve 64 Gb arasında kaldım. Hatta Apple Store'da satıla max konfigürasyonu 48 gb'lık versiyonu beklememek için satın aldım :) Ama içime de kurt düştü. Özellikle kurgu ve grafik tabanlı işlerde kullanmak için hangi ram seçeneğini tavsiye edersiniz? Türkiye'de 48 gb ila 64 arasında 7200 lira fiyat farkı olduğunu da hatırlatmak isterim. Değiştirme fırsatım var iken tavsiyeniz doğrultusunda hareket etmek istiyorum.
Next year - The M4 Max Pro Ultra MacBook Pro finished it 1min and 5s compared to M3 Max Pro Ultra MacBook Pro finished in 1 and 6s. This is the best MacBook Pro ever made.
Just ordered this one. I'm upgrading from an Apple M1 (Late 2020) so I'm excited to see the performance of this machine ;))
is it good for maya?
All these power on battery is just crazy
Is it better than asus scar 18? I want to use it for unreal 5. Please help
No. Do not get a Mac for gaming or game development. Go watch JarrodTech for the best gaming laptops on the market. If you want similar build quality the Razer Blade 16 and 18 exist for a hefty price. Lenovo legion laptops are great as well.
I’ll be getting an M3 Max for 50% off in a couple years. My 16” M1 is still more than fast enough. The M3 Max is a massive upgrade though, very impressive.
Still can't decide on the M3 Pro or M3 Max for using with Logic Pro and some light video editing in iMovie/Final Cut. I'm upgrading from a late 2016 15.4" MBP with a screen gate issue. Just took me 3.5 hours to export an iMovie video at 1080p that was 27 minutes long.
