hahah, exactly what I was thinking, this is the first time EVER I haven't skipped a mid-video review... actually watched it thinking, damn I could plug in a TV and watch a movie ANYWHERE I wanted :D
I got both the 14" and the 16" to try out and I gotta say although I expected to love the 16" more due to additional screen real estate, I just find the 14" much more comfortable to use on daily basis, carrying it around from room to room, using it on the couch or in my lap. It's nearly identical power-wise and although the 16" display is very nice, I find it a little too big when it's sitting directly in front of my face.
did the 14 inch fan noise effect you? how was the 14 inch battery life..i want to buy one..my preference is battery life and no fan noise...but it would be nice too if it was portable too..i mostly do graphic works
I just bought the 14" Mac Book Pro M1 base model in Silver. It is more than enough power for my day to day computing needs. A little bit of video editing for me, it works perfect. The screen is beautiful and it is blazing fast !! Love it ! I got a great deal at Best Buy. Was on sale for $1599. Could not pass up the deal !!!
I’m about to get the same model 16” 1TB, but it’s out of stock in local stores right now. Waiting when it be available. What’s color you got? At first I wished silver I think it’s looks better for 16” model. But I always wished to have space gray MacBook, so probably going for space gray this time.
@@TavaresTheGuru I bought it 1 week ago: 16" M1 Pro 1TB SSD in Space Gray, it looks very good in Space Gray im enjoying it 👌 To be honest I think Silver looks better for 16" because its looks more iconic and recognisable MacBook design, classic looking. But, in other hand with Space Gray I feel im more focused on my Screen, also Space Gray color suits great for Dark mode macOS, so I enjoying It and zero regrets. Also I had doubt that it will collect a lot of fingerprints, just like Space Gray iPad, but No its not. It collecting fingerprints less than my iPad
I’ve got a 14 inch M1 max on the way coming from a 16” i9 and I’d be a lot more concerned about battery/fans were I coming from an M1. Can’t wait for the extra portability
yeah, I did the same, I'm sending it back and getting an 16 inch... once you're used to the screen real-estate it's hard to go back to a small screen... you can fit a lot more code on the 16", on the 14 I'm always closing the file navigation in intellij/vscode so I can have some freaking space
That little car segment was really good, on par with dedicated car reviewers. I'd say, as electric cars and the car industry is becoming more tech-based, you can add car-related content easily, I would enjoy watching a tech reviewer's perspective (MKBHD's channel has some great car content).
Marquees knows very little about cars, and mostly just reads manufacturer information and spec sheets. This small ad gave a much better experience in less time. Well done to this guy!
Great video! The "16 inch" is identical in size and weight to the mid 2015 mac book pro. The 16 inch has also better air flow/cooling than the 14 inch.
@@BenSussmanpro I was goint to purchase the 14 inch. However the airflow and battery is much better on the 16. Also the screen size for more detailed work on the go.
I know I am getting caught up haha but the 16" m1 Pro is what I want! The ports, screen and silence sells it for me. It's such a weird dilemma but doing audio engineering on this is going to be a dream in a home studio. Also coming from a 15" 2015 I can't go for the 13" air... Just have to save up for the new year and bite the bullet woo! Big Love Tom from a fellow Brit too! Always love the content
Thanks for this excellent review, I think you set the “Gold” standard for high quantity reviewing! Just subscribed. I ordered the 16” M1Pro with 16gb this morning, I do about 10 hours of video editing a month for my training site with FCP and Camtasia mainly in HD but will move to 4K soon. Hope I made the right decision with not getting more ram 😬 Thanks again!
The ram is shared btw, so your CPU and GPU share that pool of memory. This is good and bad in its own ways, but could lead to an increased ram need in some cases. I feel like 16gb ram should be enough, but 4k editing can be taxing.

I was patiently waiting for the release of the 14 inch macbook Pro but now, the battery life pushes me towards the 13 inch M1 mac. The bulky look also dilutes my interest in the 14. 😔
Don't fret, its slightly more bulky in a positive way, it feels more substantial. As for Battery life - the loss of an hour or so is more than made up for with the better screen, speakers and performance.
Hi Tom. Thanks for all your work. It would be great to hear/see your thoughts on the best external, high-refresh, 4K monitors to pair with these new MacBooks? Ideally one's that are for creative workflows (photo/video editing - I'm not a gamer) and at an affordable cost (sub £500?). I'm thinking to get the 14" MBP and use a good external display for home (I'm coming from a 27" iMac that died), but there are so many monitors on the market, and most of those rated 'best budget displays' are only 60Hz - but seeing your point on getting a 144Hz display has me pondering. (I did see your very informative video on different types of monitor, thanks).
My 27" Mac died as well and I have realised that I bought the best on the market at the time (2012 model) with 1TB. Also trying to find a monitor to go with a new MacBook. Too many crap monitors on the market - the iMac glass is beautiful to work with as a designer.
Thank you for your review Tom. Can you please give us information about External monitor support of M1 Pro/Max. For example; is it possible to use it with 2x monitors, lets say 2x 1440p with 144 hz, via a thunderbolt 4 dock when monitors are plugged to dock.
Looking at getting a MBP 16, silly question but do Apple upgrade the processors and so on yearly as per pc's? This will be my first Apple computer as I'm over windows .
Fun fact…Apples mini led forced companies to make OLED laptops affordable cos mini led can potentially replace OLED as it has same advantages of oled yet u don’t hve to worry bout OLED burn in
You prefer either one? Let's say as an all around machine, carrying around a lot but also docking to external displays, I assume 14" is better for that?
Got the 14" and the speed is amazing compared to the old 2018 15”, but the stability is soooo poor that I’m considering switching back. It would take months to get my 15" to a point where I have to reboot it, with the 14" it’s more like 3 times per day. Mostly problems where just some mac os features stop working and break everything.
@@Murmur2k We really have trouble working now, because we bought 3 other 13" Pros with same issues. Even the cursor is hanging and not working properly
You are having unheard of issues for a MacBook pro. Are you misusing them? Mine runs like a dream no matter what I throw out at it, right out of the box.
Can anyone help? I just received my MacBook Pro 16" M1 Pro. The lid is loose (no tension) when I go to open the lid until about 2 inches up. Is this normal or a defect. It's a little more tense when you go to close it, but then it kind of collapses right at the bottom. I am looking at RUclips videos to find out if anyone else has this issue. When I look at his opening the display in the video (tense throughout) it doesn't look like my issue. Can anyone comment about your MacBook Pro and let me know if there is "play" when opening and closing? There's also a little "shimmy" when opening up the display. Thank you.
Totally agree. I used to own a m1 MacBook air and the main pain points for me were the limitations of the ports, the inability to use more than 1 external monitor (not due to hardware limitations, just because apple decided to not allow more than 1 external monitor).
I've had the 16" with 10 core CPU/16 core GPU 16GB ram & 1TB for about 3 weeks now & I've been loving almost everything about it, except the weight is killing me!!! I thought I could get used to it, but the more I've used it, the more it's bothered me. I'm planning to exchange it after the holiday rush. I'm hoping there will be more 14" in stock then, so I can exchange it.
I still can’t decide what size to get, but I really want 16”. Did you exchanged it? I will use my laptop mostly at home, I have iMac 27 on my desk, but I want something to be able work in bed / coach / kitchen. Do you think 16” is ok for working in bed? I never working in coffeeshop / library, just need something for working in bed when I tired to sit at desk. I scared 14” will be a bit small screen
@@DIVERGENTSMC Do you near a Best Buy or Apple store? I would honestly recommend going to a store and seeing both sides in person. I wish I had done that before I got mine. The moment I saw the 14” in the Apple store, I knew I had made a mistake, but I didn’t want to wait a few weeks for it.
@@karaygeoushearts yeah I saw them in person, and I feel like 16” just too huge size, and 14” looks just very balanced size. But my “mind” still thinks like bigger = better 😅 probably I should go in store again, and check size difference again, thanks for advice
@@karaygeoushearts I had some troubles to choose iPad Pro 11 vs 12.9. I wished to 12.9 but once I tried to hold in my hands I was like….no, no thanks it’s just too heavy for iPad. I go for 11” and I’m happy with my choice. Now it’s hard to pick MacBook size, I have old windows laptop 14” size and I feel it just ok, balanced and very convenient size. But I think I go for 16” this time, because anyway I use it at home, and for long continuous work I will enjoy larger screen more. My 14” Windows laptop I always used connected to external monitor, this time I want to use it without external monitor, so…
Question : can you connect via thunderbolt to a monitor and get at the same time power on your MacBook ? Or MacBook charges only via this magnet magsafe ?
Superb video and I didn’t even want to watch it as I had already bought THE 16 inch Max 32GB 1TB. I do 3D work and use After Effects so I’m happy with the decision, and your review seems to mostly support that. Cheers Tom
Hey all, I've gone through maybe 3 Macbook 14s and they all seem to have a sound crackling issue when playing video/audio on RUclips/apple music, Spotify etc. There are reddit forums on this issue how come no one talks about this?
The LG 38WN95C-W, which I think is what you're using, pairs very well with the 16-inch in my opinion. Perfect video editing workstation. And when I don't have the laptop connected, I just switch it to DisplayPort and have it connected to my PC.
How much more powerful is the 14" Pro to the Air M1? There's a few things selling me, the better screen, the magsafe, I assume better battery? I'm just trying to decide if it's all worth the extraa £800-£900
Does having the laptops on charge most of the time, looking to replace my iMac, deleteriously affect the battery life? I've heard the OSX has a way of handling this thereby preventing wear on the battery. And if you were mainly using it for audio production then the base model with, say 32gb rams would be more than enough?
Hi tech chap, hoe are these laptops for engineering programs like Autocad, Revit, 3D rendering and do you really need a m1max chip? How is this laptop compared to others like Dell XPS, Asus etc?
I have changed 3 units in three weeks because all of them "click" whenever I rest my palm near the trackpad or touch the aluminium body in specific points. Imagine a snapping, high pitch sound, like frozen ice dropped in warm water. Have you had the same issue? The Apple Store I have returned the device at has told me "if this clicking sound is present in every unit, and you don't like it, maybe it is not the right laptop for you". I replied with "if you buy a car and the wheel squeaks every time you turn it, is it a shitty car or are you to blame?". Previous to this laptop, I had the 2016 Touch Bar 15". I had to conduct 6 keyboard and display free of charge substitutions. Ultimately, I ran out of warranty coverage and they asked me 600€ to change the display, which was broken due to flexgate. Really, a continuous disappointment. I am thinking about purchasing a late 2015 MBP. At least I'll have a stable machine…
Tom is there any Intel laptop that comes close this for video editing? I'm looking to go more mobile and really considering this. But I quite dislike Apple and their compatibility with standard Windows PCs. That's why I have never bought an iphone.
Hey tom just need a suggestion i am doing light gaming like call of duty PUBG GTA 5 and i edit 1080p or sometimes 4K which chip u would recommend to me for MacBook pro?
This video was so helpful! Thanks for taking the time and effort to do this! My biggest question is. Would it make more sense to buy a 16" M1pro 10 core/16gpu 32gb or a 14" M1max 10core/24core 32gb. I use after effects and Premiere. Thoughts?
For anyone wondering about this, I have stress test videos that show that it's not worth getting the M1 max on the 14" because the cooling system isn't as big. The 16" get a lot more performance out of the higher specced chips, so if you're going for power like that then get the 16" as you'll have a cooler machine that can actually ramp up to get te advertised performance.

You are having unheard of issues for a MacBook pro. Are you misusing them? Mine runs like a dream no matter what I throw out at it, right out of the box.
What do you think about the fact that the screen resolution isn't 4k?
Just got the 14" m1 pro, can't seem to find the wallpaper in the thumbnail, doesn't it come by default in the new macs?
Do you find the 14” keyboard ok, or is the edge of the chassis uncomfortable for your wrists? Thanks
Can anyone help? I just received my MacBook Pro 16" M1 Pro. The lid is loose (no tension) when I go to open the lid until about 2 inches up. Is this normal or a defect. It's a little more tense when you go to close it, but then it kind of collapses right at the bottom. I am looking at RUclips videos to find out if anyone else has this issue. When I look at his opening the display in the video (tense throughout) it doesn't look like my issue. Can anyone comment about your MacBook Pro and let me know if there is "play" when opening and closing? There's also a little "shimmy" when opening up the display. Thank you.
So for Final Cut Pro RUclips editing, get the 16Max?
If the M1 MacBook Air had more useful ports and MagSafe, as my 2017 MBA does, I might consider it. Perhaps in the next iteration...one can only hope.
Totally agree. I used to own a m1 MacBook air and the main pain points for me were the limitations of the ports, the inability to use more than 1 external monitor (not due to hardware limitations, just because apple decided to not allow more than 1 external monitor).
Thanks for the advice! I ended up getting the base 14 with 2 tb ssd storage
How is it going? Is the memory sufficient? I’m about to get the same thing as you.
I've had the 16" with 10 core CPU/16 core GPU 16GB ram & 1TB for about 3 weeks now & I've been loving almost everything about it, except the weight is killing me!!! I thought I could get used to it, but the more I've used it, the more it's bothered me. I'm planning to exchange it after the holiday rush. I'm hoping there will be more 14" in stock then, so I can exchange it.
I still can’t decide what size to get, but I really want 16”. Did you exchanged it? I will use my laptop mostly at home, I have iMac 27 on my desk, but I want something to be able work in bed / coach / kitchen. Do you think 16” is ok for working in bed? I never working in coffeeshop / library, just need something for working in bed when I tired to sit at desk. I scared 14” will be a bit small screen
@@DIVERGENTSMC Do you near a Best Buy or Apple store? I would honestly recommend going to a store and seeing both sides in person. I wish I had done that before I got mine. The moment I saw the 14” in the Apple store, I knew I had made a mistake, but I didn’t want to wait a few weeks for it.
@@karaygeoushearts yeah I saw them in person, and I feel like 16” just too huge size, and 14” looks just very balanced size. But my “mind” still thinks like bigger = better 😅 probably I should go in store again, and check size difference again, thanks for advice
@@DIVERGENTSMC I would try to pick one up and feel the weight difference. I really wish I had done that.
@@karaygeoushearts I had some troubles to choose iPad Pro 11 vs 12.9. I wished to 12.9 but once I tried to hold in my hands I was like….no, no thanks it’s just too heavy for iPad. I go for 11” and I’m happy with my choice. Now it’s hard to pick MacBook size, I have old windows laptop 14” size and I feel it just ok, balanced and very convenient size. But I think I go for 16” this time, because anyway I use it at home, and for long continuous work I will enjoy larger screen more. My 14” Windows laptop I always used connected to external monitor, this time I want to use it without external monitor, so…
What movie was at 11:30?
I bought the 16" M1 base. Love it, best laptops you can buy as Tom said.
which desk is that?
great review Tom! especially liked the step by step analysis of which mac to prefer and why - reason 1 is this, reason 2 is that etc., very helpful
Good to hear!
Hello brother, big fan, btw what's the desk name at 0:13 mark?
Mind telling me what game you were playing at 1:36？
Forza Horizon 5
I watched your consol video I have question. What are your Thoughts on the Nintendo switch?
Sorry two more question, what model is your external screen and have you done a review on it?
Lg 38wn95c, I reviewed it about 9 months ago
Hey, at 1:37, were you using Cloud Gaming to play FH5? If so, which platform?
Question : can you connect via thunderbolt to a monitor and get at the same time power on your MacBook ?
Or MacBook charges only via this magnet magsafe ?
This is a breeze to watch, very easy going type of flow this guy has. Subbed
Hi. For your mac 16 max did you go with 32 or 64 ram? And why? What are the specs for your build?
Nice setup. Hope an updated tour will be coming soon.
I’m looking to go into computer science next year in college and I was wondering which computer you would recommend for me
How to get the Wallpaper like the one in the Thumbnail??
Tom, what colour would you recommend in the 16” mbp?
What cable do you use to output 144hz on your monitor?
16" Pro... haven't touched my PC either except for gaming... not sure that will ever change
Likely will not.
I still feel late 2013 macbook pro 15inch was the best in terms of dimensions and keyboard.
Great, ordered 14", didn't know that its possible to play forza, how did you download it ?
Man, that was a good car ad. I hope they payed you well for that.
Superb video and I didn’t even want to watch it as I had already bought THE 16 inch Max 32GB 1TB. I do 3D work and use After Effects so I’m happy with the decision, and your review seems to mostly support that. Cheers Tom
Hello, I want to send you a footage of my new MacBook pr 14 inch I would like to know what u think if its a glitch due to software or hardware
Does the 14" run hot? I have a 2018 13" and when I'm livestreaming or torrent files the fan gets loud and hot.
Hey all, I've gone through maybe 3 Macbook 14s and they all seem to have a sound crackling issue when playing video/audio on RUclips/apple music, Spotify etc. There are reddit forums on this issue how come no one talks about this?
The LG 38WN95C-W, which I think is what you're using, pairs very well with the 16-inch in my opinion. Perfect video editing workstation. And when I don't have the laptop connected, I just switch it to DisplayPort and have it connected to my PC.
Yep that’s the one!
How much more powerful is the 14" Pro to the Air M1?
There's a few things selling me, the better screen, the magsafe, I assume better battery? I'm just trying to decide if it's all worth the extraa £800-£900
Hey there, awesome video, as always.
Quick question, what desk is this?
Has HDR stopped working on RUclips on the new MBP's for anyone else?
Does having the laptops on charge most of the time, looking to replace my iMac, deleteriously affect the battery life? I've heard the OSX has a way of handling this thereby preventing wear on the battery. And if you were mainly using it for audio production then the base model with, say 32gb rams would be more than enough?
Hi tech chap, hoe are these laptops for engineering programs like Autocad, Revit, 3D rendering and do you really need a m1max chip? How is this laptop compared to others like Dell XPS, Asus etc?
Very nicely done!
Hey, very informative video thanks, I was wondering what mac you would suggest for a home-working professional Photoshop retoucher?
Your videos are amazing!!!
I have changed 3 units in three weeks because all of them "click" whenever I rest my palm near the trackpad or touch the aluminium body in specific points.
Imagine a snapping, high pitch sound, like frozen ice dropped in warm water.
Have you had the same issue?
The Apple Store I have returned the device at has told me "if this clicking sound is present in every unit, and you don't like it, maybe it is not the right laptop for you". I replied with "if you buy a car and the wheel squeaks every time you turn it, is it a shitty car or are you to blame?".
Previous to this laptop, I had the 2016 Touch Bar 15". I had to conduct 6 keyboard and display free of charge substitutions. Ultimately, I ran out of warranty coverage and they asked me 600€ to change the display, which was broken due to flexgate.
Really, a continuous disappointment. I am thinking about purchasing a late 2015 MBP. At least I'll have a stable machine…
Tom is there any Intel laptop that comes close this for video editing? I'm looking to go more mobile and really considering this. But I quite dislike Apple and their compatibility with standard Windows PCs. That's why I have never bought an iphone.
Nice review! What is the name of the external display you use/recommend?
🆙🆙Thanks for watching
🔝🔝 message right away I have something for you🆙🆙🆙🆙
Hey tom just need a suggestion i am doing light gaming like call of duty PUBG GTA 5 and i edit 1080p or sometimes 4K which chip u would recommend to me for MacBook pro?
That was an ad? Felt like a bonus car review!
Hi! Would an M1 Max chip make any difference for Adobe Photoshop performance, or is it similar to Lightroom where that won’t matter? Thanks!
This video was so helpful! Thanks for taking the time and effort to do this! My biggest question is. Would it make more sense to buy a 16" M1pro 10 core/16gpu 32gb or a 14" M1max 10core/24core 32gb. I use after effects and Premiere. Thoughts?
Did you make a decision yet? Kinda contemplating on same thing lol
Same here 😁
@@sanjayjeta551 16" with M1 Pro better bet, 14" with Max will throttle + much worse battery life.
For anyone wondering about this, I have stress test videos that show that it's not worth getting the M1 max on the 14" because the cooling system isn't as big. The 16" get a lot more performance out of the higher specced chips, so if you're going for power like that then get the 16" as you'll have a cooler machine that can actually ramp up to get te advertised performance.
I just bought a 14” pro with M1 max chip and 64gb of memory hope it was worth it
wallpaper link please!
What happened to the audio quality of this video?
MKBHD videos feel good working bro 👑 you deserve 1000000 subs
Great video and I’d like to see you do more car stuff like the Hyundia Ioniq
16 inch is a no go for me due to travel all the time. I really wished they offered the 64GB option with M1 Pro though.
