- The MacBook Pro 16 is legit a powerhouse that really turned around Apple's fortunes in the laptop market space after the problems their 15 inch models ran into a couple of years ago.
But there has been a pretty big upheaval in the laptop market place over the last year so its time to find out, is it still worth buying in 2021?

I bought the current 16” 2 days ago and I’m very happy with it. I switched from a 2015 13”MacBook Pro. The main reason I went with the 16 over the new M1 13s is I have been using a 13inch MacBook for over 10 years and I wanted something that actually felt like an upgrade. Everything on the 16 is just bigger. The screen is bigger , the trackpad is bigger , the speakers are bigger (and much better). It felt like a noticeable jump. Also I’m not a power user. I will never use all the performance that this computer has. I bought it because I wanted a big laptop. It’s as simple as that. They really should make a 16” Air. I’m sure there’s more people than me that want a big screen for watching movies but don’t need a 12 core CPU to do it 😄
The transition from the voice over to the audio from the office at 11:23 in the middle of the sentence is so clean
This channel definitely helped me pick out what I needed for my first ever Mac product. I got the MacBook Pro 13 inch and now looking forward to getting this 16 inch. I’m excited, thanks mate!
I bought my 16-inch mac pro on the 5th of Jan and absolutely love it, it's perfect for me, it's fast and beautiful, the speakers are amazing and the keyboard is brilliant. I'm loving it.
Me too, just bought a new 16in Pro and I love it.
same y’all i love it
Nice, how much do y’all think apple would give for a trade in if a new one comes out this year

I bought one back in Oct 2020. Great laptop, very immersive experience.The speakers are just fantastic. Honestly, I never hear any fan noise.
yeah speakers are mind-blowing. Got mine in Dec 2020. Absolute power house! ❤️❤️
I just ordered the M1 MacBook Air. I got the 16GB / 512GB model. This channel helped me choose my first MacBook. Love this channel
this guy is truly the 🐐
Thats awesome hope you enjoy it!
I chose my Mac mini likewise!
Hey I was going to get that same model as well. But then I'm thinking perhaps I should get the 1tb instead hehehe
I ordered the same model... i hope it will arrive soon... i have been waiting for 6 weeks
I just got a new 16 inch in 2021. As a software engineer, unless I am developing pure iOS apps, the M1 Macs are a non-option. Many of the apps, plugins and libraries I need simply do not run with anywhere near acceptable performance on Apple silicon, if they can even be run at all. This 16 inch will still be the go-to option for engineers probably for years to come.
totally agree... in android studio you can't even run the emulator... completely useless. Maybe next year, but i have to work right now :-)
I returned my M1 yesterday.
Am torn if I should wait or get the current model of mcbook pro in the market.... I am a software engineer too
Great thoughts! I am so freaking happy I just bought mine today, although very expensive, my content creation game just changed completely.
i recently bought a 16, after getting tired of waiting for the silicon version (the battery on my 2015 retina was pathetic at this point, too, which pushed me). i don't regret it at all. if you're working a lot on the move, and only from a laptop, the bigger screen is really not a trivial difference. i could not do a full-time job, whilst mobile (i.e. without a desktop monitor set-up), from a 13 inch screen or with 2 usb-c ports. i'll look into the 'M1X' 16-inch silicon laptop in a year or two, and part-exchange the intel 16.
everyone is really excited about apple silicon, and deservedly so. but some of the breathless praise for the 13 inch M1's sometimes seems to forget that apple silicon is here to stay, and there will be many more models and future generations. i really don't see a good reason for a person accustomed to a 15/16 inch laptop to switch to the 13, just to have the latest and greatest tech for the 12 months that it's exclusive to the smaller model. as you rightfully say, the 2019 16-inch macbooks are still incredibly powerful and capable computers, and will be so for a few years yet.
for me, the crux of it is this: people are raving about the M1's performance, but forgetting the (arguably more important) factor of PRODUCTIVITY. sure, the 16 inch mac might be fractionally slower in benchmarks, but you're getting extra diagonal inches of screen space, extra ports, a better screen, more storage, loudspeakers, etc. none of those things show in an A/B benchmark comparison, but on a day-to-day basis, you have to actually live with them as a user. it matters. a machine helping your productivity is about so much more than the speed a safari page loads, or how quickly those renders/exports complete under 100% CPU usage.
@Thijs Mulder absolutely, it's worth the wait! the battery on my retina was at the end of its life, which forced my decision now rather than waiting another 6 or 12 months.
@@aaroninky I can get a brand new sealed in the box 2019 MacBook Pro 16" i7, 16gb RAM, 512gb SSD for $750.. Good deal right, I'd be foolish to pass it up no matter how tempting the MBA M1 is right now.... Decisions, decisions..

Thank you for the reviews and impression without numbers... could sit all day watching it
So many requests for this video! Loved it
If you want windows on a MacBook but can’t wait you should get this if you want the extra performance
but if you can find a high spec out model with an in core i9, 32 of ram and 1 terabyte AMD Radeon Pro 5500M graphic all for $1595 is that worth buying in 2022
Man, you've got the most relevant answers for a comparison made for Macbooks. Totally got what I needed to hear! Good job! And I will watch the next one. 02.06.2021 still!
My M1 MBP is going to arrive tomorrow your videos helped a lot Gary 👍
Got my MacBook Air a couple of weeks ago based off your reviews, and ordered the dongle you recommended in advance, it's been amazing for my first mac OS experience. Thanks Gary!
great video love the energy
Sold mine, bought an M1 air and pocketed enough cash to buy a spare. I regret nothing.
May I ask how much you sold yours for?
@@ellentran96 I think it was about 1700. I bought it for about that, so didn’t even lose any money
@@superafroYCC awesome
My brother has one and really enjoys it. That being said, he was obviously a little deflated when I showed him just how quickly my new 2020 M1 MBA wakes from sleep. It's iPad fast with a solid Apple computing experience. I'm excited to see what Apple does with the 16" MBP in the future.
Thanks you for the vid! I'm doubting if i should buy the pro 16 inch i9 now or wait a few months for the 16inch m1? Please help me haha
This channel really helped me a lot too 🔥🔥🔥 and the infos are really useful Gary
Thanks so much!
Just bought a 16" MBP. Pretty much every reason you just mentioned was my deciding factors..
Oop
@@user-jq2wg6vk4p ?
is it a good laptop?
I just got my 13” 16gb 1tb M1, and I’m blown away by the performance.
I went from a 2012 architecture 13” MacBook Pro to this, and obviously I’m happy with the performance boost. I can finally edit videos without bogging, editing in Photoshop is so much faster and Lightroom (program I use the most) is wonderful and smooth, and it’s not optimized for M1 yet.
I had to create a calendar for the German Shepherd rescue I do photography for, on the 2012... with 180+ layers... it was painful.
I can open, edit, export & upload 10x faster now.
Again, I’m happy, very happy.
As a photographer, do you recommend this computer? I want to use it with photoshop and premiere and lightroom, whilst alsousing google classroom, zoom, etc for teaching
You like dogs 🐱🤔
I have had my 16' MacBook Pro for about 1 year and love it (the specs are 1TB SSD, 64 GB RAM, and the 5500M GPU)... Did I overpay??? Maybe, but I love the software support I will get over the years and I love the fact that I can plug my power chord on either side of the Mac... Oh and yes the speakers are out of this world!!! I'm a huge music lover and well having awesome speakers like this is just icing on the cake
Thank you for your candid opinion! Your content is very engaging and to the point.
Well thanks so much!
I just bought a refurbished MBP 16”. I hope I made the right decision but I just feel like the M1 is going to go through many changes over time. I’ll wait until they come out with the MX12 in 5-7 years. When they work out all the kinks.
I'm waiting for the M chip release of it. I have a working 15' Macbook from 2013 that's still working really well.
Still going to watch, because I enjoy your videos.
It feels premature now, but let me tell you: I upgraded from a 2012 15" Retina MacBook Pro last year to an i9 + 32 GB 16", and it was a hell of an upgrade. You'd be impressed even if you didn't wait. If you can wait though... yeah wait.
Thanks for the info. I went ahead and bought the Macbook Pro 16 used even though I know the new M1X one will come out in 2 months. I started grad school recently and all the professors code on macs, and adapting the packages etc. to run on my old xps 13 became too big of a hassle. I'm looking forward to the bigger screen real-estate and hopefully by buying used I'll be able to limit my losses if I decide to upgrade the the M1X mac later.
finally...that is the answer i was searching for! Thank you everyday Dad :)
when you asked if I hear something at @11:30 I heard my laptops fans :DDD
super informative in May 2021. thanks brother /|\ :)
I bought my 16 in September of 2020 knowing that the M1 would be coming out soon. I wanted the larger screen. If Apple silicon was being released in a larger screen this past year I would have waited. 13" is just too small for me.
I got the base model and pretty much that's all I really need, and it was $300 less than retail, sooooo.
I'm happy with the 16, no regrets.
After a few years go by and I see the development of Apple silicon advance, which it will, I'll consider getting a new MBP. This is only the first stage of development. You'll by then have a new video out saying why you shouldn't buy the MBP 13 with the M1 chip.
Until then its me and my 16.
I used to be a wall-o-monitor person. Now I just use a single 43" 4k. Works wonderfully with my M1 MacBook air.
I just bought a 16" after working with a secondhand macbook pro 2011 for the last five years. Imagine that. I'm very excited to use it and feel the change
Bought my MacBook pro 16 inch 6 months before they announced apple silicon, dont regret buying it
but i could use some of that quiet and cool m1 chips with longer battery life
This channel helped me in my
Decision, I bought the 13” MacBook Pro with the M1 chip, that chip makes all the difference and the size seems right for me. 16” would be a little too big but I would have gotten it if it had the new Mac chip. Thank you
This helped me decide to get the 16”! I need a laptop for audio engineering school and the M1 chips are unfortunately not an option yet. Yeah pro tools runs on M1, and runs fairly well, but there are soooo many plugins that are gonna take years to get compatibility and stability at the same level as running on an intel chip.
Thank you i needed this
Good choice! I needed mine for content creation, lots of Adobe premiere work. So happy I went with the 16” and just picked it up today
@@andysmith9243 im doubting if i should buy the pro 16 inch i9 now or wait a few months for the 16inch m1? Please help me haha
@@gddas91 I’ll be honest, I’m so in love with mine! I couldn’t wait any longer as I needed an upgrade and I know this one is going to last for years. The M1 sounds cool but they are always going to be making something newer and better, if it were me I’d buy this one again!
I am not a power user. I just bought a 16" in top condition because of the fantasic screen, keyboard and tracpad. I just paid 11000 Norwegian crowns. That is less than 1050 USD. The battery count is only 120 cycles so there is a lot of juice left in this glorious machine. My last MacBook was a entry level Air M1. I don't need that power. But to be fair, the 16" inch is faster than a entry level m1 air in many scenarios. Another thing is the lousy number of external ports in the M1 air. Thank you for a great review. Keep up your good work. Thank you😃
M1 is not there yet...needs more fine tuning and more support from software/apps. They also need to perfect the encoders to that of Intel's or better but the encoders for rendering video causes subtle subtle banding and artifacts. You have to really look to see it but in a side by side of 4k Pro Res or s-Log you can see the differences between Intel MBP and M1 MBPs. Why is no one talking about this?
When using it in dock mode, can you use any usb-C to display port adapter to run higher refresh rate monitors for the macbook pro 16?
Sold my 2019 13" MBP and got a 16" base model brand new for £1800 (Or well £700 if you take off the 13") Definitely don't regret it and for my work flow it's made it so much easier and quicker. Those M1X Mac's do look real good though but i really don't wanna wait essentially a year for it.
Thank you for this! I am currently in the market for a new laptop (my old one is 10 years old. LOL)! Tried the M1 Macbook Air but it was super-glitchy for me and wouldn't work with my new 4K monitor or peripherals when the charging cord was unplugged from the M1. Needless to say the 16" Intel Macbook Pro was on my list of laptops to take a look at.
That’s hilarious-me too! I have a 2010 13-in MBP that is still kickin. Don’t fully realize how slow it is until I use family members 2015 air.
Always said I would replace my 2010 when it dies. Finally realized that that is never going to happen, so change of plans. I’m getting this 16-in MBP. I’ll be blown away by such an upgrade. And, in 2030, it might finally be time to get a third Mac lol.
I just bought my MacBook Pro 16 “ and customized it and I’m waiting for it to arrive! I’m sooo excited!! This will be my first MacBook everrr🥳
Please, make a video of should you buy this mac in 2022! I would really appreciate it and donate you)))
I come here on youtube sometimes to search up for macbook pro 16 videos to justify my questionable decision of buying one in april 2020. Listening to voice telling that it's still a great computer on those amazing speakers makes my heart and wallet a little less miserable. After day of pretending to work in OSX to earn spent money back I switch to bootcamp to play some call of duty and somehow everything feels right. I like my life again. Have a good day fren.
I bought a MacBook Pro 16 in September 2020,
(9th generation 2.3GHz 8-core Intel Core i9 processor (up to 4.8GHz with Turbo Boost)
, AMD Radeon Pro 5500M (8GB GDDR6 memory installed), 32GB 2,666MHz DDR4 memory, 1TB SSD storage). I was using it for architecture and it was working quite smoothly and fast. However, 2 days ago with no apparent reason, it simply stopped turning on and working (only some weeks after the 1-year Apple warranty ended). I took it to the repair shop and they tried everything to revive it with no success. Now the price to fix it is 1300$ and will take 1 month. Feels like programmed obsolescence. My previous computer was a MacBook Pro 2012 that I used until last year with no issues at all. This one barely survived one year (and some weeks extra so that the warranty wouldn't cover any of the repair costs).
I just returned my new unopened MacBook Pro 16 to Amazon two weeks ago after learning about the M1 MacBook (I live in rural Oregon and am not always up to speed on the latest ;) ). Waiting for the "M1" type in 15" or 16" since virtually all MacBook issues I have had over the last two decade are thermal issues.
Which apple MacBook 16 is this ? 16,1,2,3? We are talking about model right? Not size? For some reason everyone in the comments is which is confusing me.
Is this the one where the keyboard is good again haha
This 16 inch MacBook Pro is the last of the macs that can connect to an eGPU and Nvidia seems to be absolutely essential for Machine Learning cause of Cuda. Is that a good reason to buy this over the M1 MacBook Pro?
Can you do a video of what dock you got?
I bought it cause I didn’t think the M1 macs were gonna be this good, but luckily I was able to return it and get the M1 and I have ZERO regrets. The M1 macs are just night and day better if you’re looking for a laptop. It doesn’t overheat, multitasks better, opens apps faster, browses much faster, is much cheaper and has a way better battery life. It is just better in every single way (unless you like a bigger screen). As a science student, I use many programs like R, populous, excel, word etc, and this M1 Mac is a BEAST (especially now with online school and having to be in lots of Zoom conferences). The 16 inch would struggle with how many tabs and programs I had open but my M1 MacBook Pro makes it look easy.
I just bought myself the 13 inch this pass week. I was going to buy the 16 inch & 3 apple employee told me everything you just mentioned. In fact one of them sold their 16 inch to buy the 13 inch just bc how fast it is & very long battery life.
so does this M1 processor still allow me to build apps with x86-64 architecture?
My 2012 MacBook Air is on its last leg and I'm holding out for the M1, M1X, M2 or whatever it's going to be called MacBook 16. Since everybody is praising the M1's I think it will be worth the wait.
There's been very little conversation in tech circles about when/if Apple will update this current MBP 16 configuration with Intel's latest i7-11370H. It looked like they would refresh the Intel Macs one last time when they made their announcement last summer. But, there hasn't been anything leak since, which is strange.
The Everyday Dad What’s a better buy?. I mainly use mine for watching RUclips and web browsing and some discord video chats and some email stuff. Should I go for the new iPad Pro 12.9 with magic keyboard and Apple Pencil or a MacBook Pro 13.3” 512gb 8gb ram or the base model 16 inch MacBook Pro that’s on sale right now for $2,099?
I had no idea you motorcycle! 🏍
Min 6.16 as u snapped your finger my led stripes turned off like in the same split second🤯!
Now im sitting in the dark because everydaydad figured out my lights.
(Im not even joking like daaaaamn)
Hey dude, the ballcap improves your looks. 😂
i don't know which macbook to buy. I want to buy a used one and cannot choose a winner between the 2018 15" model or the 2019 16" model. Both have a six core processor and 16gb DDR4 Ram and 512 GB but the 15" would be about 300-500€ cheaper... which one should i get?
Hi I am a graphic designer and also I edit some videos I want to buy a MacBook Pro but I am confuse in two laptops MacBook Pro M1 and MacBook Pro 16 inch i7, can you please suggest me Which laptop should I buy?
I genuinely did leave the Mac in 2017 when my 1.5 year old 2015 retina died and I was faced with bad thermals and literally broken keyboards for the sake of 0.1 inches of thickness lol. That being said I now have my 16 inch and i am loving it. Also definitely not worth spending 3 years with Windows like wow do I not like Windows.
Now I just have to hope Tim Cook doesn't go and turn MacOS into some glorified iOS thing with all this SIP and killing kexts and "App Notorization"
You just saved me £3000! The fan noise was one of the reasons to upgrade my 2014 macbook.
14:10 I completely disagree. You should encourage trade-in for the M1 chip (either MBP or Air) before the computer looses complete value when the M1 16inch is announced.
Actually traded in my mid 2012 MBP towards my new M1 MBA. Unfortunately, 🍎 wouldn't give me a dime on my 2010 Mini
You should do a gaming live stream on RUclips. That would be so awesome! You could even do it as a Q&A.
I just bought my MacBook Pro 13 inch with M1 this pass week. I was going to buy the 16’ inch but 3 apple employees informed me exactly what you just mentioned. The technology will be old in a few years compared to the M1. It’s much faster. I only wanted the 16’ inch due to the big screen loI. I haven’t even opened it yet, lol. Once Apple comes out with a 16 inch laptop with the M1 chip then I’ll be buying that one too!
Soo bootcamp is still useable on the new 2021 macbook pro?
Nice shirt!!! I need one Lol
I’m holding out on the 16 inch M series MBP.
When will they be released?
Are some professional photographers here that are still using the 16 inch 2019 Macbook?
I’m not sure about spending over 2K bucks for the newest 16 inch model since I come from the PC fraction. I’ve seen the 2019 one for around 1.300€, do you think this is a good deal?
I mainly use Lightroom & Photoshop heavily as well as Firefox for all my research and business related stuff.
I’m still so unsure…
I would just save up to get the 16 inch Apple Silicon one. Intel is something that Apple is going to try phasing out quicker than normal so you cannot guarantee how much support you are going to have left in it. Also Intel macs have problems like throttling fan noise, and high power consumption which eats your battery. Therefore save up to get the newest 16 inch.
@@TJK152 thank you a lot for your recommendation! In the meanwhile I got myself a nice MBP 14 Inch and I'm in love with it. It basically boosted my creative vision. I was in front of the 16 inch one but it was just to big for me...
I have a very good 27 inch aRGB monitor in my studio, so i just hook my MBP onto it.
Apple was the right choice for me and my business!
I still really like my 16 with the 5500M and the 2.4 8 cores i9. The only two BIG things that bother me are: too much fan noise when plugged just to an external monitor, poor battery life (again) when just plugged to an external monitor. Also poor battery life when doing heavy tasks.
Do you think it's viable for gaming? I would love a reply
@@GooztyIf you really want to play AAA games, you MUST go with a PC.
For lighter games, absolutely nothing comparable to AAA games, a Mac Book Pro 16 is a decent machine. Only decent.
But it's really not meant for gaming.
It's for productivity and professional workflows.
With less than half the price of a i9 Mac Book Pro 16, you can get a very powerful windows machine for gaming.
@@marcodimario9918 thank you very much. This really helps!
What is the future for Macbook Pro's ? I wonder what is the equivalent of a Windows based laptop with a 4 K monitor ? I guess I should eliminate the 4 K monitor feature or is it necessary to include the 4 K monitor feature ? I am guessing a new and improved Apple M1 chip .
I have an old desktop Windows 7 based computer upgraded to Windows 10 . No serious work performed on it but it works for routine simple stuff . We never know when Apple will stop supporting certain kind of processors . Done rambling . I took out the old hard drive and installed a 7200 Western Digital 3 TB HD. I have 16 mb ram. Only very routine stuff . Now done rambling .
Will we ever see the razer blade 15 again??
I have an Apple watch and phone, so it makes sense and I was impressed with the audio sound, BUT to the price is a little steep for me. I have an ACER nitro now and its starting to bug out a little bit. Not sure on what to do
I bought MBP 16 for me and 13 M1 MBP for my wife (in november). 13 is too small, looks like a toy, and for photo editing and light video editing, my 16 is great ... and my wife loves 13 M1 for one reason especially, battery life. Anyway, both great machines, both will be more than enough for most of people ...... If you can afford any, buy it .....

Hey, I really like your video's, they are very helpful and good. Still, I have a question and I am very confused, I have to buy a new MacBook pro 16 inch and I will also configure it(i9, 32 gb ram), but I am confused should I still the MacBook pro 16 inch or I should buy MacBook pro m1 ((16 gb ram). I am an architecture student. I have to use software's like Autocad, Sketchup Pro, Twinmotion (3D rendering), Rhino 3D. I don't how will or will they work under rosetta 2. I have to do the 3D Modelling and 3D rendering work. I am very confused. Please reply and help me out.
You need stablity stay with intel
Does Lightroom and photoshop run on the M1 pro?
The fact that a few more GB ram costs you +400 just tells me that this is a total rip off
I pretty much only use word excel and chrome for my daily drivers,would the standard m1 air be the best choice?
Absolutely.
Yes
I brought a 16 inch Macbook Pro with 64gb of ram 2tb and core i9 I can't wait to get it!
I'm still using my MacBook Pro 16 for working at home. I bought it when it was launched in 2019. It is a great computer and I have really thought about replacing it with one of the new M1 Macs instead. There are three main reasons I have not done that. The first is the extra two ports, the second is the larger display and the third is that the M1 MBP is not quite as high end and is missing some of the features I really like on the 16" MBP. The M1 is cool but I don't mind having a computer the size of the MBP 16 for travel given the larger display, and that the battery life is still pretty good. The M1 is fast but not faster than the i9 in my MBP 16. I will 100% get an Apple Silicon 16" MacBook Pro when such a device comes out. Until then, I am very happy using the intel laptop.
Is it really true that the i9 is faster than the M1? I’ve heard that it was slower so this is a conflicting opinion.
@@ioncekilledamanwithmyshoe the multi core performance of the I9 is about 15-20 percent better than the m1. The M1 demolishes the intel chip in single threaded workloads. For someone using the 16” MBP, the updated versions are still worth waiting for.
@@Piketom1 thanks for this information!
Great review. I think people need to understand that there is fan noise, and then there is MBP 16 fan noise. If you plan to turn this machine on at all, prepare for thunderstorms. I had some severe issues using this with an external monitor... We are talking nuclear power plant fans. I reset the SMC and that seemed to help, but holy smack.... Better not work with sound or video recording with this thing.
I recorded a pickup shot with my iPhone in one of my videos and it was dead silent. The second we got back to the shot where I used my MacBook in the background it was just sad... Other than that, it has done really well.
FYI, bootcamp on this machine with the top end specs is a better windows experience than most comparable windows systems. with the top end graphics card I can play whatever I want.
Might be worth noting that this is desktop replacement level hardware internals. If you have multiple computers, or a desktop already, you don't really gain much for paying the premium for this portability and power combo.
I ordered mine 10 minutes ago... gonna sell my 12,9 inch iPad Pro Setup
I've been on the fence for a few weeks but I think I'm going tk go for the 16 inch 👌🏻
I need to be able to natively run windows and all windows programs so 16" intel macbook it is for me. Also in terms of gaming, the 13" M1 macbook pro seems to be a benchmark queen, but if you look at actually REAL WORLD gaming comparisons of the 13" M1 Macbook pro, vs 16 inch Macbook pro running the same games natively, or even more so through boot camp, you will see the 5400-5600m in actually do a lot better.
I have always used the 15”. But, the m1 got me to buy the 13”. Debating getting a 17” portable monitor for travel or the 16” when updated to m1x.
screen size is one reason i'm not downsizing to the M1 13. sure it's 'faster' but me just like you hate to have to squint to get my stuff done. 16 is just better while not being too big like my Aorus 17 gaming laptop. plus if I want something more portable like the 13, i'll just use my 2021 M1 ipadpro. i'll be using my 16 till M2 16s come out.

12:21 I really need a matte screen protector like this one. The light reflection from behind is really bothersome
Can a kind stranger in comment land recommend the right MacBook for running Logic Pro X? I have an iMac, but I need something more portable.
To put the usage into context, I don’t do massive projects, but to have the option of producing mid-large arrangements would be ideal. I also produce a podcast (trimming, post-prod, adding music etc.), some episodes go up to an hour and a half.
A flying sloth will bring you a plate of cookies for your generous advice. :)
Ok, so from what I’ve seen, the 13” MacBook Pro with the M1 chip is good for bigger projects because it handles a lot more but you mentioned you don’t do big projects so it might not matter to you.
I personally have the MBP 16” and for me, screen size is quite important, especially when working an a project with something like Logic Pro X. From what I’ve seen, MBP with M1 chip can handle 90 tracks while the 16” can only handle 75 tracks, but for all my projects, 75 is more than enough for me.
So it kind of depends on what you prioritize more, a laptop that can handle a bit more (usually good for big projects) or a bigger screen size (if you’re not doing huge projects and you also would like the benefit of a big screen). Of course, a big screen isn’t the only benefit of the 16” MBP but some other benefits are also listed in the video.
Edit: oh, also I forgot to mention that the speakers the 16” has is just so much more superior which is important if you don’t use headphones when working and also when watching tv shows/movies (if you use headphones all the time you can disregard this).
Where did you find that shirt?
Have they sorted out the integrated cable flaw that's rendered many macBooks unusable?
I'm new to apple products. I just got a mac pro 16 inches..beautiful laptop
I still got the Mac Air 13 and Im still super in love with it, I can only imagine how beautiful ur MacPro 16 is!
I willl be holding out for the 16" Apple Silicon MacBook Pros with hopefully a new design and more ports.
I have a m1 MacBook pro and find it is too small for my needs. It has power, but I need to use my laptop as a laptop and not connect it to a large monitor, etc. I find I need to use an external keyboard and mouse to type and work effectively, and I can't do that when I am away from home. At home I have a mac pro, so I need to use my laptop on the go and when I am away from my office. The main thing I need is the larger screen, and I can't wait for the M? version down the road.
I need that bootcamp life
I went with the 16'' instead of the M1 MBP cuz I have to pay just half of the price.
cool how much did you pay for?
Sir, I am confuse which Mac I should buy M1 or 16 Mac Pro . I want to learn how to code. Please give me some advice
You can buy a m1 mac or 16 inch else
Thank you so much
Bruh, I bought it in 2023 and still a beast.
Why don't you do a review video on the Sony Vio's laptop line. I have a friend that has a Sony a6600 camera & Sony Vio laptop that he swears the 2 together are seamless ! ! ! !
I returned my M1 due to small screen size. I’m keeping my 16inch. Much easier for my neck and eyes
Yes the screen is too small 😂
Yeah and it doesn’t fit enough apps and folders I want on my desktop.
@Radio Kaos I already own an external monitor and trash the M1
