Random find and great video….you’ve got my attention. I run a Mac book and do very basic go pro editing but I’ve run out of computer storage. Your Samsung option caught my eye. Place to leave all the video files from the memory card. I’ve subscribed to learn more about Mac books….
I love your video; thanks for creating it. I noticed that you were carrying your hard drive on top of your computer, putting pressure on the screen. I would be super careful about doing that. The screens on the new MacBooks are so thin that it is crazy. I just had to replace a screen on my M3 MacBook Pro, and let's just say I'm eating Ramon for a while to recover. don't want to see that happen to you! Thanks again for the content; I really enjoyed it!
the MX Master 3S can be paired to Mac and Windows, both versions. Only difference is that the Mac version doesn't include the USB-Dongle, because modern MacBooks don't have USB-A ports and the charging cable is USB-C to USB-C instead of USB-A to C. It just works like any other Bluetooth mouse on PC. Latency is a little worse than it is with the dongle.
I just got this same MacBook and it’s my first ever Mac too, the quality on this thing is insane and the iPad working as a 2nd monitor wirelessly and effortlessly is a huge plus considering I snagged the 9th gen iPad for 199 and the MacBook for 750 (256 gb 16 gb ram M2)
Thank you - i got my first MBPr recently - 2015 ver - so learning the Apple way of doing stuff - and i'm look to upgrade to an M1 in the new year - like you, have been a pc user untill now :)
Picked up a Sandisk Professional 4TB SSD. It is about 2800MBs/2800MBs Read Write. It is excellent as an external solution for running apps that can do so.
@@cr7fanpageug i bought it about 2 weeks before the m4’s were released :/ but yeah m4 pro is only like $200 more and you get all those pro features plus 10GB cpu rather than 8
Hey! Thank you so much for the video! I got the very same MacBook and this is my first one ever! Indeed it feels odd at times but I have so much fun either it and enjoy working on it
The MacBook Air is a good laptop but I’m pretty sure it does not have a fan I would hate for it to overheat or be hot when I’m using it. I got my first Mac and it was the M1 Pro love it to death for school and code editing gonna be working towards the m4 next. Scrim what I’ve seen there are massive performance jumps from m1 to m4
If you get a thunderbolt connection to a monitor, usually the monitors have a bunch of USB ports too. And they charge your laptop. I'm all about one cable connections.
Adding an iPad mount (if you have an iPad) wouldn't be a terrible idea either. Making use of SideCar or extending your display comes in very very handy for just about any task honestly. I like to use my iPad to extend my MBP display whenever I'm traveling and doing schoolwork, programming, etc that "requires" two screens. Works wirelessly as well-- so no fumbling with cables, just convenient extra screen real estate
I didn’t know my MX3 could support gestures. I guess it needs software, though, since it doesn’t work out of the box. By the way, a metal stand with elevation provides the proper viewing angle, it should be at a 90-degree angle to keep your neck straight and reduce extra strain. I’d also suggest adding a few standalone USB Type-A to Type-C adapters they’re pretty cheap and come in handy from time to time. Thanks for the video!
Hey, nice informative video, you mentioned the trackpad scrolling is reversed on mac, but it is an option you can change through settings to make it what you are talking about!
Great video! I have a couple questions, not really too big on laptops. When you are using a wireless keyboard/ mouse can you plug that into the anker port that you plugged in the video? In the past I’ve tried with my other Laptop (Dell XPS) and it didn’t work but I just recently got the 24 MacBook Pro M4 chip. Also that wireless mouse you have in the video is awesome, might be custom but curious as to where you got that?
Love your Kittery Trading Post shirt! I'm in northeast MA so I'm in Kittery a lot! I have an older Macbook Pro 14" (2021) and I've been wanting another charger to have for my office / on the go. The Volta looks awesome, but I have no idea what a thunderbolt cable/port is -- maybe that's not something my wicked old (sarcasm) 2021 Macbook has. ? I really want a second screen for my office too, but I don't have a great set up, nor do I know how to do that. Do you know if that portable charger thingy would work with an end-to-end USB-C cable/port? Another question -- your external harddrive -- how's that work with Time Machine? My external HD is a Seacoast (1 TB) and huge compared to yours -- definitely not something I can take with me! I've needed lots of USB to USB-C adapters, too, since my 2021 has only USB-C ports, and 1 HDMI port (and the charging port, as well, durr). Great video! Thank you for any help/guidance you or anyone else can offer!
Hey thanks! Thunderbolt is just another name for the USBC port on your laptop. Not all USBC's are thunderbolt, but all thunderbolt's are USBC. The name is just a way to differentiate between high bandwidth (thunderbolt) vs lower bandwidth (regular usbc) ports. Your 2021 MacBook Pro is equipped with thunderbolt 4, so yes, you have thunderbolt ports! A portable charger would definitely work to charge via these ports with a usbc to usbc cable, Anker is another brand that offers a ton of different options if you're looking for something smaller/bigger/cheaper/etc. As for Time Machine, I haven't used it yet so I'm not quite sure how it works, personally I use a really bulky 8TB hard drive that sits in my office to dump all my old files on. And as far as displays go, I would look up some reviews of displays that work well with Mac. Currently I'm using my TV as a display but there are some great monitors out there that integrate well with Mac if that's mainly what you're looking to use it for!
Any external hard drive or SSD will work with Time Machine, just make sure it has at least 2x the space of your MacBook Pro internal SSD (recommended by apple). I personally use a 2TB T7 Shield SSD with my 2024 14-inch MBP (m4 max) which has 1TB of storage.. It takes hourly backups for the last day, daily backups for the last week, weekly backups for the last month, and monthly backups for the last year (I think), though that all can be configured. Hope this helps
The only difference between the mac version and the normal version of the mouse is that the normal version comes with a dongle. The mac version will still work with windows computers.
6:38 - If you leave your Mac plugged in all the time, won't it ruin its battery? I also bought my first MacBook Air M2 and I use it to work with software development, but I don't leave it plugged in all the time for fear of it getting damaged.
@@lucasfontoura7458 there’s automatic battery saving features so it doesn’t ruin it. For example after just a few days it knew that when I plug it in at night it will likely be sitting there until the next morning so now it will trickle charge to 80% to preserve battery life
@@extraterrestrell I worked on a job for them shooting some promo shots didn’t realize it wasn’t released yet but looks like anker has some similar ones
I needed a help clarifying something. I purchased a M3 MBP and bought a hardshell case for it. I've been told that the hardshell cases are really bad over time. Without the case I feel like I'm going to get scratches and accidental drops. What should I do? Should I keep using the case or should I remove it and use a sleeve instead? Using the sleeve will be tough since I will carry it around with me everywhere. Please suggest me what I can use for it
@@ysryashraj I would just use a sleeve, it will protect it while carrying it around and when it comes time to use it you just take it out. You know your own circumstance better than me though, like if the laptop is in danger of being knocked off the table while in use then maybe the shell isn’t a bad idea.
How is the editing experience on the M3 Air? Does the fanless design cause any slowdowns or stutters during extended usage? Currently stuck between the M3 Air (16/512) and the M4 MBP (16/512). Not sure which one to get.
@@atpidus_sad to answer your question it works great, no slow downs or stutters while editing this 4k footage with color grades and effects (I think I use h.265 if I remember correctly) but looks like they’re so similar in price right now because of all the deals going on, if you don’t mind spending the extra money the m4 pro might be worth it

What were your thoughts around choosing the 13" MacBook Air over the 15" size?
