Video editing is the utmost productivity Application for most RUclipsrs 🤔. Why don't they show how powerful macbook is with general productivity Applications?
Purely as a software developer, did you ever think that the 14 inch macbook has a low battery life? That's the only thing stopping me to buy a 14 inch.
14" is manageable for development for sure. A bigger screen or 2nd screen does help when developing. e.g if you have an iPad or you can plug into a monitor it helps for sure. But on a single 14" display - still works fine. Depends on what kind of development you're doing as well
@@ChuenL Thank you! You helped me make the final choice. I have 27 monitors. At the same time, it is nice to know that I can work comfortably while traveling.
Personally, I think 16GB is enough. I do some heavy back-end work and it's pretty quick. No probs so far. I've run a few Docker containers on the side and it's still fine. All depends what kind of dev you do?
@@ChuenL Thanks for replying! I'm a bit concerned about 16 GB because I'm currently on a 16 GB M1 MBP and my memory pressure is always in the yellow. I usually have Goland and VSCode open, ~30 browser tabs, and miscellaneous things like Slack, Postman
Will 16 RAM be enough for 4-5 years for normal usage without video editing or rendering at all? Also , my friend is using Macbook Pro 14 Base Model and when he opens 5-6 tabs or 7 in safari and nothing running in the background RAM usage is between 10-12.30 GB. Do you think it is normal or Macbook works like this .
Professional review with gentle voice, keep moving mate!
Thanks for dropping by and the kind words 🙏🏻. Appreciate the support and the sub!

Where did you purchase your Ladder bookcase ,looks good 👍🏻
Hey, I got it from a shop in the UK www.futoncompany.co.uk/ I'm not sure if they ship internationally.
Great video, how was your experience with Parallels on your mac?
Hey, thanks! I've not used Parallels or VM Ware unfortunately. My old license for both had run out. I might give the free trial a go.
Thanks for your review! Please share as a developer, are you comfortable with a 14-inch display?

nice review video, is it possible to work with you with our ipad pen review video?
Do you find 16 GB to be enough RAM for software dev? I'm kinda on the fence as to whether I should get the RAM upgrade or not.
