Nice review bro! I just got the 16" M4 Max MacBook Pro (16-16-40, 48 Unified Memory, Nano-Tech). I won't be traveling with it, ONLY if I have to. I'll be doing most of my travels with my M4 iPad 13."
A friend who is a musician chose the 14-inch MacBook Pro because he travels a lot. I opted for the 16-inch MacBook. My friend regretted it afterwards, he realized that the 14-inch display was a bit too small to display the software he uses completely without having to scroll. The size of the 16-inch display is simply perfect.
I used to have to squint a little or get next to the screen when making RUclips shorts , now I can see the screen perfectly fine with the 16 inch so I get what you’re saying haha
@@CaesarionCaesar it’s like it doesn’t even feel the tasks being done haha ! I’ve been photo editing and it’s been running fast even in exporting. I’m going to try HDR photos next !!
i’ve been watching countless videos about the m4 chips, cause i’m planning on buying one next month or on February 2025. Your making me choose the 16inch more than the 14inch at this point haha
Its much more macbook for the buck. Was hesitating too, but I traveled with it and its like taking your desktop everywhere. Best decision after years with 14".
Hey Langel, I just wanted to say how much I truly appreciate the video-you’ve definitely gained a new subscriber! What stood out most to me was the genuine realism in your talk. I could really feel the sincerity behind what you were saying. With some of the bigger RUclipsrs, their reviews can sometimes get a bit clouded by focusing on broader points, but you hit exactly what I was looking for. I really appreciated how you showed that this product isn’t just for pros or people who know every single component inside and out-it can work for anyone. Honestly, I’ll probably never use 24GB of power, but it’s comforting to know that if I ever need it, I won’t struggle because I’ve already got it! Thanks again for such a thoughtful and relatable review!
@@paulortiz6055 You’re Welcome ! Thanks for helping me see in a different point of view ! I agree , sometimes it gets boring watching those bigger RUclipsrs because they all kind of say the same thing .
I went to the Apple Store to purchase the 14” pro. Best decision ever…..to go to the store that is. I compared the 14 to the 16. I eventually walked out with the 16” pro max4. Yes, a lot of money but I am retiring to south east Asia and I want a machine that is going to last for at least 5 to 10 years. I love this laptop. And the battery life is insane.
Thanks for the confidence! I saw one in store today, and id made up my mind on the 14 initially but after seeing the 16 screen and watching your timely video, im thinking 16 is the way to go!
Yes if you don't want to attach external monitor or don't travel much then 16inch is perfect. Otherwise 14inch is also not a bad choice. 14inch also feels premium 😅.
@@zeeshan4341 I’m not sure if it feels premium it’s pretty lightweight haha jk but hey I’ve been with the 16 inch for a while now and after a while it feels regular and the 14 inch feels tiny pretty crazy
Your RAM story is interesting. I have the M4 16" and I did a stress test where I had a video 4K video edit going in FCP with a bunch of effects piled on, a multi layer edit of a 45 MP picture in On1 Photo Raw (which is a RAM hog), Safari open with 20 tabs open, a 4K video playing in Apple TV, Music playing in the Music app and a bunch of my regular day job things open like Mail, Calendar, PDF Expert, Notes, Numbers, Finder. The M4 Pro 16" (24 GB) got to 60% memory pressure with a couple of gigs of swap and the lowest I ever saw the ram drop to was 5 GB. No freeze ups and everything running as smooth as butter. I wonder if it's a software optimization issue you're experiencing. That can happen with newer chips. Software might not have caught up yet.
@@langeldonao Oh, and I agree with you, this is my 3rd M chip and by far my favorite. Had the a 16", tried a 14" for a year and now back to the 16". Missed that big beautiful screen! You enjoy!
Have you changed your mouse cursor by any chance? There was a bug where if you changed your mouse cursor, you keep getting a out of memory message. Change your cursor back to default and this may solve it for you, if you've changed it.
@@unknownfromkashmir depends what you need it for. If you’re only going to surf the web and do light tasks that m3 can do that perfectly fine but if you think you’ll do a little more than that then wait for the m4 to get a little more power.
@@tc5006 the 16 inch costs more than the 14 inch base model yes but if you’re willing to spend the extra money there’s no doubt about it that it’s worth it . No lie though , anyone who goes with the 14 inch base model still gets a good computer , it’s not bad it just doesn’t have as much specs as the higher tier ones and will see slower performance way sooner under heavy workloads of course . Plus the speakers , screen , and roomy keyboard of the 16 inch is something I will never trade.
@@langeldonao thanks for the reply! btw loved that video was in the car, refreshing. we have plenty of indoor studio equipped reviews, it was nice seeing something of different vibe.
Do you recommend the space black over the silver? I just got the silver and still debating if I should exchange it for the space black. Give me your recommendation TY
It’s crazy how you said this because I spilt coffee on one of my last ones and just let my guard down and drunk coffee next to this one just right now. Thanks for the reminder !
@@langeldonao You tell yourself you'll be extra careful, but 1 second of broken concentration and your 4-5k laptop is cooked. Laptop stand that raises it 6-8 inches off desk + external keyboard and mouse!
Great Idea to record in your car, Refreshing. Would you say this is great for semi-heavy video editing? Davanci with lots of plugins , how does it handle audio plugins doesn't it stutter"?
The 16-inch MacBook Pro with the M4 Pro is great for video editing and handles audio plugins smoothly-no stuttering. Although , it wouldn’t hurt if you got a little more ram just in case but I think you should be good !

Thanks for the update !!
Yeah I also bought it and it is amazing coming from a windows user! It just feels good to hold and work with it. its keyboard is delicate
