Same, I got the 14 M1 Pro I'm typing this comment while using it. I've been a Windows guy my whole life. Happy to say that I am LOVING the 14. Such an amazing machine. The screen, the 120hz pro res, the trackpad, the speakers, the battery life, the keyboard, the looks. Ticks every single box
Hi guys. I am aware of the heavy criticism this MacBook pro has. I looked between the m2 MacBook pro, M1 pro 14 and the new MacBook Air. I have a 5k mac desktop that I used for heavy graphics and architectural drawings so feel if I need that I can. I have had a career change and need a laptop for word processing large text files and blogging. I think if you need heavy graphical video work maybe consider the M1 pro. I decided on the MacBook m2 and opened it today and have to say I love it! It works so well for my needs, love the touch bar, no notch and the lovely compact form factor and keyboard with contrasting aluminium. I got the silver as it's less fingerprint prone and it reminds me of my old MacBook that I had for 11 years! Hope this helps others anxious about the critiques. I also think this machine will be very stable with it being just a processor upgrade from the previous one. I bought the 512 for many reasons mentioned here. I also kept it at 8Gb as my 5k runs on 8Gb and works great for Photoshop and 3d work, (not heavy rendering). Anything heavy id recommended 16Gb and move up to the 14 inches if you are a designer or architect or similar.. 👌👍
Were you guys waiting for the new MacBook Pro or the new MacBook Air? P.S Letting you guys know that I found out why the new M2 MacBook Pro SSD is much slower than the M1. Inside the chassis, the M2 actually uses a single SSD chip to talk to multiple buses to transfer data. Meanwhile, the M1 actually uses 2 chips to communicate... In my opinion. It's really ODD as to why Apple would implement this design
I noticed something cool. Apple intentionally wanted reviewers to review the m2 macbook pros first, instead of the airs, as to build up a sense that the pro is really inferior to the air, plus all these people arguing brings in more traffic, which means more people will be anticipated for the m2 air reviews. Slick tactic!
Read & write speeds are slower on the M2 MacBook Pro because Apple decided to use only one NAND chip for the 256GB model, unlike its predecessor, the M1 MacBook Pro 256GB model which uses two 128GB NAND chips. Can you make a review video about the M2 MacBook Pro (Base Model) for programming and CS students, because I don't know if its really worth upgrading the RAM to 16GB
I just ordered the Pro M2 (2022 model) for $1099. Not a bad deal. Ordered it through Costco online. I’m seeing bad reviews but I’m not understanding why. Nobody is really giving good reasons to avoid it, it’s more so people saying something better will be released in the future. It’ll do exactly what I need so I’m not too worried about it. I’ve had two other MacBooks and the latest one I had was a 2010 Pro lol worked great until my buddy’s dog sat on my backpack and crushed the screen 😅 It was time for an upgrade obviously so I wasn’t too upset. Had that one for over 12+ years. Looking forward to having a newer faster model again and got a good deal on it.
I like the fact they kept the design of the 2020 MacBook Pro cause I have an intel one and thought the Touch Bar thing was completely getting phased out in M chips. I do agree they could of did some slight upgrades make it more future-proof but we know components got recycled but still I think it’s good they kept it for the people who are into the bar on the keyboard. I would still pick this over the new design 14 and air. Videos are getting more sick each upload great production work and consistency always new content for us to view. Thx
A lot of developers still prefer this 13' MBP as the M1 Pro is a little overkill for most developer work and they still like the smaller form factor of the 13".
Hey Andres Second time actually watching this video😅 I actually ordered this macbook and I’ve been trying to get a lot of views on it. I am an electrical engineering major first year though and I will be taking some programming classes and overall I hope it does what I need it for
Isn’t it a bit of a dumb move from Apple, because the laptop design is the exact same, and not the cool new design from the M2 Air. The performance wouldn’t me noticeably different day to day. It’s probably just a dump for al of the old 13inch chassis. Great vid tho, keep up the good work and have a great day Andres:D
…I don’t understand what people were expecting. Apple kept the design of previous generation(s) MBP because that’s what people like. The MBP already has a sleek design. What other changes were supposed to be made? It makes sense to change the design of for the M2 Air, as the Air has always had that unique, tapered design. As far as the MBP M2 is concerned, it honestly think it’s fine. It has the classic Apple design - like the rest of their products - and I wouldn’t expect them to be making any changes anytime soon.
That’s the point. They want you to see the MBP and think the MB Air is a more attractive purchase and sell more of those. For ppl who want more performance will go for the MBP.
I agree I agree. But if you come from a non apple machine or you have the old intel platform, its a good laptop. Although I am still on the fence due to the fact that the SSD is much slower. I am still waiting on the MacBook air .
Looking at this in June 2024 with freshly bought M2 MacBook Pro 2022. On the basic level, I love how the machine stay cool after long hours of normal use. Not even fan is spin up during this long time. (Web Surfing, Music Listening, Netflix and TH-cam). Big thumbs up for Apple. However, a little of myself feel sorry for not buying for M2 MacBook Air with new design.
It's become a trend to shit on Apple, I've never owned an apple device, but windows laptops that come with such high features don't even last a year, so brands are just stuffing all the features that they can but they don't last past a year or two, it's ridiculous that all that money can't even get you a device they'll last a year, i would rather buy used laptops and upgrade parts for quater the price than buying these new windows laptops for now, atleast I've seen my friends' Macs lasting longer than these feature packed windows ones.
whats the point of actually buying something that's probably going to get replaced next year. also is it just me or does apple remove certain features only to bring them back in a few years. like why did they remove magsafe to bring it back?
Amazing review with quirky humour , loving it!! And the journey all for this 😄👍thanks for the head up, as still in between 13“ or 14“ keep up the grandiose work 👏
2:41 "audible feature" is that referring to the startup chime? Am I the only one who turns the volume off when I don't need it to avoid hearing that every time, or is he referring to something else, not sure.
thanks a lot for sharing your experience! I have a question: i want to buy my first Macbook and i need a Laptop which good for Pic and Video editing! Like for Instagram Reels, TikTok and TH-cam just a normal using! No special editing. What is the best one in your opinion? Thanx you
Thanks for all the information that a good device ,but I can't buy it because it 's expensive .I wish I could find one of this type used ,but Unfortunately.Thanks 🙂
I am think about getting this because I want to be a photographer. I will be upgrading from the MacBook Pro 2015 to the MacBook Pro 2022. Do you think I should upgrade to this MacBook Pro?
How about the macbook air m2. Thinking about upgrading my old macbook pro 2015 to macbook air m2, but not really sure about it. BTW it’s for web development stuff 😁
I can already tell you its perfect haaha but let me review it first before you guys go ahead and buy it. I wanna try to spend a lot of time with it before releasing the review..
Hi, It is a good video thank you. I have a question. what do you think, which is sensible M2 Macbook pro 13" 512ssd 8gb RAM OR M2 Macbook Air 256 ssd 16gb RAM for future and daily using? (The prices are same)
Hello. I looked at different bloggers of programmers, the software engineer asked them a question about courses or resources where you can learn a software engineer step by step, no one can give advice. Can you help with advice about good courses ???
Hello Andres thanks for your video. I was wondering can you tell me what's the hub you use to have double monitor on this macbook pro, I have 2 monitors at home and one macbook air and I want to use my second monitor. Thanks a lot and keep going doing your great vids
at 8:40 - is the reason you recommend getting into the 14 inch pro for a7s files solely because it has 14-core gpu? would upgrading the ram and storage on the 13 inch m2 pro solve those problems?
Would you think the base model (8GB RAM) will be enough to record and make acoustic music/songs with not more than 20 tracks per project, and to edit basic vlog videos (1080 & 4K)? I don't mind not being the fastest, I just want it to workable and able to cope with in roughly 5 years time.
should be i have a m1 mini and run all my native instruments and mpc one daws with it no problem only 8gb base version and i will be using my m2 for this as well.
Which MacBook I should go for? MacBook Air M1 or MacBook Air M2! Please guide, will Macbook Air M1 feel outdated🙏🏻 Edit: I love your Videos, love from India♥️
Hey! Andres great video. I wanted your suggestion regarding the new macs. I'll be starting my design degree this sept mainly dealing with ux/ui/graphic/web designing. So, I was thinking pf getting the new m2 air with 16gb ram and the 67 watt adapter. what do you think of it? I am confused at the moment but I guess your suggestion might help!!
Hello! Everything seem amazing but why I cannot have the possibility to change the ssd once it reaches the end because It does not make sense at least for me. Greetings.

I live in India, Apple products here cost a fortune and are also usually released more than a week later

Yeah these “reviewers” are so annoying.
Why is pro inferior?
@@soulfood2453 I guess it looks outdated?
Definitely looking forward to your first impressions on the MacBook Air M2 and comparing it to the 13 inch Pro M2!

What do you prefer Macbook air m2 or macbook pro 13 m2 ??
I really need your opinion

Actually was clear and nice comparison. M2 with 24 Ram, 2Tb of storage already enough for all types of jobs ). Thank you vey much..
Why don't u just upgrade to the 14 inch MBP at that point?
@@goldenknight because MB 14 inch with such configuration is much more expensive
My biggest flex is gonna be following this channel before it blew up which trust me is not too far!
haha thank you man..
Hey Andres
Second time actually watching this video😅
I actually ordered this macbook and I’ve been trying to get a lot of views on it.
I am an electrical engineering major first year though and I will be taking some programming classes and overall I hope it does what I need it for
I just got the m2 MacBook pro and I love it. I had the MacBook pro 13 in 2012 so to me this new MacBook pro is amazing.
P
Loved the vloggy feel from the beginning! Top-notch as always.
haha my pleasure bro im happy you guys like it!
Can you do a transition video from PC to MAC because I may get a Mac for productivity purposes
Ill try to make one!!
Long wait finally came to end,
Thanks to andres my good friend,
Happy to help!

Some like the touch bar, and since they still have a audience who asked for it too come back, this is the alternative
I bought this yesterday . Still worth it

I have the 2014 MacBook Pro, had it for 2 years, used and abused. Ready to get a new Mac
Please put another day in a life video themer🧡🧡

I bought it and feels better than my m1. Probs honeymoon phase tho
haha maybe but the SSD is much slower
Awesome video quality! Have a good rest of your day Andres.
Thank you bro you as well!
@@andresvidoza Thanks 👍🏼
Thanx for the vlog bro , am considering upgrading to mac pro 13 m2 with 24gb ram so am waiting the in-depth review
Ill make sure to deliver one forsure dude! But as of now, I am a bit disappointed with the SSD's!

what's your camera? and how do you edit the videos and make the thumbnails?
Amazing review with quirky humour , loving it!! And the journey all for this 😄👍thanks for the head up, as still in between 13“ or 14“ keep up the grandiose work 👏
That Silver color looks so perfect
Surfing internet maybe
Netflix maybe
And many more maybe
Very exciting

I don't get it, what to review... Old MacBook Pro with new chip... The end.
Some people still want to watch a review man. It helps them with their purchases
@@andresvidoza Sure, but in this case they could watch MacBook Pro 13" M1 reviews from 2020 and just remember that M2 is faster...
It is like Intel MacBook.
Hello! Everything seem amazing but why I cannot have the possibility to change the ssd once it reaches the end because It does not make sense at least for me. Greetings.
Even If I go to the nearest apple store they are not willing to change it
What a shame situation!
The ports 🤦♂️
Thanks for the quality video though mate!
I know trust me.. -.- Disappointed as well! thank you btw!
