Of course you can edit videos on the base model M3 Mac. I used to edit on the base model M1 MacBook Pro. It'll get it done, 8GB of RAM is measly, but I got it done. I didn't like not having enough ports on the M1 13" MacBook Pro, I ended up grabbing the 14" MacBook Pro, mines has the unbinned M1 Pro, 10 core CPU, 16 core GPU.
So much for Apple calling the 13.3" Macbook Pro made for "pro users". I thought I just didn't like Macs when I bought that laptop. When I traded it in for the 14" I saw a world of differences that I stopped using my windows desktop.
This falls under the "just because you can, doesn't mean you should" category. 8GB ram doesn't take much to go over with photo and video editing. Once it does that, it's using your m.2 SSD as overflow. That's a lot of unwanted read/write on your non-replaceable internal storage.
That’s true but I have the M2 MacBook Air 13” with 8GB Ram and 512GB ssd, and I used it for SLog3 10-Bit footage shot on FX-30 in XAVC S / H264 and HEVC and I added about 14 effects when color grading and editing, stacked 4K clips and even if it used the NAND ssd for the past year, and it wrote 4TB to the SSD using swap, keeping in mind that the TBW (total bytes written) on the 256GB Slower base SSD is 150TB, but it can go far more than that. And for me I still have 100% life percentage. For people that want to know what app I used, I used DriveDX for in depth reports. And macOS is amazing at memory management. For me it’s been no problem, now I ordered the base model M3 MBP as my first MBP and I don’t regret it even a slight bit due to its active cooling and ports.
Personally I have the base Model M3 MacBook Pro and I edit 4K24p HEVC 10-bit 4:2:2 shot in S.Log.3 and S.Cinetone on the Sony A6700 and it works like a breeze, what I did was getting a 2TB LaCie SSD from Apple and Optimise/Transcode all my HEVC media into Apple ProRes 422 and edit straight from the SSD and it works like a charm. The new SSD's they use will last you long so you don't have to worry about swap memory at all, if it ever feels sluggish editing 8K footage maybe, you can go to FinalCut Pro and turn on Better Performance Issue or just use Proxies. For me it works flawlessly, I am also a software developer and I use Xcode a lot with a bunch of tabs open and it never slows down on me.
I think the Max is not really a good investment for a real pro workflow, not because of the SOC performance, but because when you want to use your laptop for a big production you´ll come across with a lot of issues, mainly connecting your very expensive machine to a SAN or NAS most of them are at least on 10GbE and dongles are unstable on Mac OS right now, they overheat after a couple of hours of work, randomly disconnect and you have to spend a lot of times and frustrations to find one that work just to be broken again by a OS or NLE software update. So my recommendation would be get an affordable laptop (mac or windows doesnt matter) and for real professional work get something that can be easily (and natively) connected to a fast network; the Mac Sudio it´s cheaper for the Max performance, comes with the right amount of RAM and it has 10GbE port integrated. You´ll be happier editing on that machine, with thermal headroom, more connectivity ports for monitors, drives, headphones and speakers and you can still use your laptop for all the other stuff while working. My two cents.
@@VincentForDesign if you get money from editing videos, then you´re on the professional spectrum. My point is that the macs as expensive as they are and how they are marketed as the ultimate creative professional workstation at the end is very limited when you get a big job, and a cheaper non professional gaming laptop most of times has the proper hardware to perform in those enviroments much better than the Macbook pro. Yes they are good for editing but in all honesty any system since haswell has been great at that.
@@sergiosanchez2012 can you recommend any gaming laptop you mentioned? Because I have been a MacBook user for the last 10 years using company’s laptop, but I might go solo in the coming months, so am looking for something that would allow me to keep editing videos without breaking a hole in my wallet.
@@VincentForDesign The MSI Stealth 16 Studio with the RTX 4070 is a great option. Also the Lenovo 16" Legion Pro 5i 16IRX they are both around $1,600 US and Will perform great. If You want something more robust and You don't mind the weight the ASUS studiobook Oled 16 is amazing it costs around $2400 but You get touch screen, heptic touchpad with pen input and the Oled screen is amazing.
You are right about 10GbE. Such internet speed is needed on the NAS side to be able to deliver material to many editors simultaneously and allow them to work. However, a single editor will only need a 2.5GbE connection, which is not as problematic as 10GbE. So having a MacBook connected to the dock (e.g. ivanky with 2.5GbE) there should be no problems like you are writing about, and on the MacBook side there will be no difference between working on 10GbE and 2.5GbE. So the only real advantage of Mac Studio is a better cooling system that will be able to show itself, for example, during long rendering. Which does not mean, of course, that Mac Studio is not better, because it is. But Macbook Pro has the advantage of being mobile. I myself am facing a dilemma about what to buy - Mac Studio M2 Max or Macbook Pro M3 Max.
"the last thing you want to do is a bunch of edits, and then have to wait to see if it acctually looks the way you want it to look." ... reminded me of how it used to be all the time. Layering three images, adding fx, trying to time it to the music ,while only seeing black on playback (AVID)... and having to wait render to see the result. 6K was unheard of, we were only editing in SD ... Rendering meant it was time for a coffee break... we had a lot of those.
i use a M1 Max Mac Studio with 32gb ram and 1tb. feel like i should have gotten more ram and bigger SSD for sure. power wise it's fine. do some complex vids with 6 4k streams and some effects in capcut and FCP
I have a 7k windows laptop in a lease for over 150 euros a month, and I get a lot of noise and not even the best performance I would expect when I just use 4k footage. Might be buying this base laptop now and later upgrade to a mac studio or whatever and end the lease to save a lot of money now.
Hey I want to buy a computer for editing on davinci resolve for school at the end of the summer, and I was thinking about buying an iPad Pro instead, because of the portability, do you know if I should bother, or just get the MacBook Pro?
MacBook Pro 16 inches (m3 pro chip - base model), is it a good choice for editing 4K drone videos and 3D photometry softwares? I am starting and m3max is too expensive for me at this time. I prefer the 16 inches.
I’m thinking of either getting the M3 Pro 16” with 36gb, I want it for some light 4k video editing and photoshop, is 36gb an overkill? Should I just got with the 18gb with 512gb storage? Thanks!!
Appreciate the content, but these kind of tests are only beneficial for maybe youtubers or streamers who for some weird reason want to be cutting raw camera files. I have been cutting features for over ten years and I can guarantee you, no one in any studio is cutting with r3d or any raw camera files. It’s just unnecessary when dealing with hundreds of hours worth of footage. So yea, these machines are good for what they are and if you are not trying to do anything fancy editorial wise, they are pretty good value.
I've never worked a day in my life in video, film or ANYTHING to do with recording things...but I'm just a lil confused why anyone who try and run ANY business off a laptop. ESP something as demanding as video editing. Like I'm sure it can be done if one throws enough money at it, but that's with just about anything. I couldn't imagine not having custom PC with a nice large screen that can handle just about anything for the backbone of my business. Any customer who thinks shooting everything, having it edited on site and expects a finished, mastered copy on the same day making a 2k laptop necessary, wouldn't be a customer I'd wanna work with anyway
I see where you are coming from, but just the portability of laptops means you could work just about anywhere you really wanted to. Then that's where more expensive laptops come in. A MacBook like that can balance both the portability and preformance, meaning, yeah, a pc would be more powerful, but a lot of people also just like to work outside, and in other places, such as a place of work, at home, and just anywhere.
Thanks for that, I really want to buy, lets say I am aspiring to be a content creator so this is very helpful :) can you say how much CPU & GPU and memory the computer has?
Appreciate the video. Everyone I saw on RUclips suggested to get the upgraded 16G ram version. But it’s expensive… The base model is going to be 1399 at Costco next month. And I got my eyes on it!
3:34 Brandon, big question...I have a MacBook Air M1 base model because that's all I could afford. I do have a T7 SSD though. I plan to shoot a short film in the spring and if I understand it right, I can edit from my SSD but how do I do that? I come from Windows computers so everything I do on my Macbook from downloading LUTS and putting them into FCPX to downloading an adjustment layer and installing it took me a loooong time.

I use mac from 2017-2019 with gpu nvidia at that time, all time I used for editing and the problem at that time is MAC cant handle properly dynamic link premier pro and after effect. Its take long time! But Now, mac have m1-m3 which they say the best forcreator.

Dear Sir I am a wedding photographer I shoot most of the time HD and some times 4K and sometimes I shoot with two or three HD camera . Do you advise me to buy the M3 base model or the M3 Pro model ? I always have a desktop with intel core i7 13700K , 32GB of Ram and ......etc of excellent part .
Hello how are you, sorry to bother you, I know you've been asked this question millions of times. I'm about to buy a Dell alienware x16 laptop, it comes with an Intel i9 processor, nvidia rtx4080 12 g, 32 g of memory, a 1 tera disk, it would cost me 2400 dlls vs a Macbook pro M3 pro, 2000 dlls approx. The thing is that I've seen a lot of reviews and more Mac gives problems with Premiere, doesn't do the renders well, gives bugs, lost frames, and so on.
I’m upgrading from a MBP 2019 with intel chip. I shoot music videos and am trying to figure out which specs would best suite my situation. I shoot with a Sony a7iii - any help would be appreciated!
I have to say I absolutely agree with your thoughts overall, but especially on the memory- it is really disappointing from Apple that the base model starts at 8gb memory. This, in my specific case, has absolutely been enough of a reason for me to just stick with PC and Premiere Pro- because as much as I want to stick it to Adobe, I just can't justify spending nearly $2000 for a machine with 1/4 the memory of my desktop pc. FANTASTIC Video, thanks so much for your hard work and insights. You're a great video creator!
So, if i use m3 mac for adobe premiere 4k video editing, shooting with fx30 on slog 3, will il be fine ??? I have a monster PC for editing but im new to mac so, i need to understand which should i buy ? myby PRO?
Hey how will this laptop work with transcoded apple prores LT footage... I edit on ad films on premiere pro which are shot on arri alexa or red then transcoded to apple pro res for offline edit and once my edit is locked we send it to resolve for a colorist to grade and then online edit for final deliveries... so I will never be editing on 6k - 4k resolutions... you think is a good laptop for even editing a 60 minute timeline on apple prores?
0:14 As a motion graphics designer and video editor, I prefer Macs, but you don't need a laptop or a Mac to edit videos; you can do it on a Windows desktop computer; that's of course unless you are committed to Final Cut Pro. P.S. I loved the reference to Apple's "Scary Fast" event in the outro.😂
Super impressed with how you deliver the message, hit the important stuff, avoid needless chatter, provide very relevant information & make it interesting.
All jokes aside though, this is one of the better videos on picking the right macbook - i like to think i am technically motivated - but when i see all these crazy benchmark tests with a lot of jargon in some other videos, i get lost!😊
the fact that the entire video was shot on iPhone! Dope ending
Why not proxy? don´t you think proxy files would make the edit easier?
Is the 25gb ssd ok? Is it slow?

This, in my specific case, has absolutely been enough of a reason for me to just stick with PC and Premiere Pro- because as much as I want to stick it to Adobe, I just can't justify spending nearly $2000 for a machine with 1/4 the memory of my desktop pc.
FANTASTIC Video, thanks so much for your hard work and insights. You're a great video creator!
So, if i use m3 mac for adobe premiere 4k video editing, shooting with fx30 on slog 3, will il be fine ??? I have a monster PC for editing but im new to mac so, i need to understand which should i buy ? myby PRO?
So professional having crappy distracting audio clip throughout
What spec you running on the base model buddy?
8GB is a joke, seriously. Apple dont respect the consumer.
Amazing video I was def looking at the colors and depth of field but the iPhone 15 looks incredible
theres a lot of noise in your vids, you might want to check that.
Is 512go enough ?
I'm just looking for a 4k 60fps one for my mini 4 Pro, pocket 3 and other Cameras
M1 is enough. Apple sells their customers more power than they need
what was that program that created b roll out of clips you had, thats insane
Hey how will this laptop work with transcoded apple prores LT footage... I edit on ad films on premiere pro which are shot on arri alexa or red then transcoded to apple pro res for offline edit and once my edit is locked we send it to resolve for a colorist to grade and then online edit for final deliveries... so I will never be editing on 6k - 4k resolutions... you think is a good laptop for even editing a 60 minute timeline on apple prores?
Apple kinda push the M series out a lil too fast in my opinion
Even my MacBook Air M1 can run and edit 8K video, but only in 24fps/25fps.
0:14 As a motion graphics designer and video editor, I prefer Macs, but you don't need a laptop or a Mac to edit videos; you can do it on a Windows desktop computer; that's of course unless you are committed to Final Cut Pro.
P.S. I loved the reference to Apple's "Scary Fast" event in the outro.😂
Windows lol
I use an M3 Pro and love it but that comment makes no sense @@lowlowseesee
@@imeann...do you have the base model 8gb?? do you think the 8gb will be good or after effects??
I’m glad you filmed on iPhone. I want to vlog my vacation next year. Going back to Hawaii
what about a rtx 4060 64gb and i7 13th gen?
What camera do use as seen at Starbucks ?
I unironically miss the touchbar :(
Is it valid to edit videos on this laptop and use adobe premier pro?
Thank you so much this was so helpful!
Super impressed with how you deliver the message, hit the important stuff, avoid needless chatter, provide very relevant information & make it interesting.
I have a touchbar macbook pro - did not notice it till you mentioned it here 😂 - hope that answers your question!
All jokes aside though, this is one of the better videos on picking the right macbook - i like to think i am technically motivated - but when i see all these crazy benchmark tests with a lot of jargon in some other videos, i get lost!😊
great video Brandon so im actually upgrading from an 2.3 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i5 to the M3 for VFX I hope ill see a difference.
Hey i am gng to buy m3 pro macbook pro 18gigs of ram, 11core and 14core gpu, do you think it can handle animation?
Excellent video. Could you do a video on the equipment you use or plan on using in 2024? I've looked around RUclips and there are limited videos.
Whatever is flavour of the week is what he will be using. He's a youtuber, not a video maker.
@@John-e4p1x 😂okay. Thanks?
You went to Best Buy in Humble 🤢
How about Premiere Pro? Can you please see how it performs on that?
What are the huge difference between, better performance and better quality. what re their advantages and disadvantage for each and when to use.
Hey! Sorry, super off topic, but i really love the black stand you have under your monitor. Can you post a link for it?
