    Apple's 16" MacBook Pro has been out for around 6 months now, so we take a look at where it stands in the Apple lineup, especially now that the 2020 MacBook Air and 13" Pro models are now out as well.
    We talk about the new Magic Keyboard, and how much the newly improved speakers and microphones have mattered since we started using it.

      Apple can learn something from Dell - remember the "up the nose cam" well that did not last too long. So in all reality the camera can be easily replaced, I had two screens that I needed to repair and there is plenty of room in there if I look at the Dell XPS series and the HP laptops. Those cameras fit but now comes, of course, the next thing, Apple has not only the camera to worry about, the sensor for the backlight of the keyboard and the True Tone and Dynamic dimming is integrated in that cable, so they will need to create a new cable run, which means the existing stock of screens will need to be changed over. This can mean that the chips on the motherboard also need to be adjust and so on and so forth. Yes, it would be fantastic to see a 1080p 60FPS camera, but in reality the huge move of their production lines to Taiwan and India and the humongous sourcing and logistic nightmare because of the pandemic will mean that there are rabbits to be pulled out of hats. Upgrading the CPU will already cost a fortune to adjust the current board and I have not seen any on a test bench yet. If the rabbit is going to be delivered it will most likely not be until after the iPhone event. I have the 16" base and I paid a very nice price for it here in Canada, it is still a lot of money, but I will not go back to the 13" model. I have had 3 different ones in 2018 and 2019 from base to highest end and I just can't get over the thermal issues. This is personal, of course, because I am the one with the sensitive skin on my hands and so be it. However, there are lots of engineers where I work that would never go to a larger model, the portability and the speed of the 13.3" is all they want.

      MBP13 4TB is 2129€ including VAT
      MBP16 is 2339€
      I need portability, but for 210 euros I get a GPU and better CPU (even if from the previous generation). It's 600 gr heavier, which is basically only the weight of a water bottle.
      I went for the 16". What would you have done?

    I have a MBP 16 (base model) and now I wish I can return it. It has very serious thermal issues. The computer would frequently freeze due to overheating, sometimes even right after it boots up with no apps running in the background. The CPU load would go up to 100% easily because of overheating, and the fans would run at full speed. Even browsing the web would be sluggish. In fact a lot of times it is even underperforming my 2018 13" macbook pro. I did some research online and realized that this is actually a very common issue among all macbook pro 16 users. I know some people really love this macbook but I just want to tell people my experience so they know the risks before deciding to buy it. Don't base your entire buying decision on these RUclips review videos. These videos are great but they mostly serve the purpose of entertainment. Instead do some thorough research on sites such as Apple's support forum and see what actual issues and frustrations other users are experiencing.

      It needs 10nm Tiger Lake CPU, so that integrated GPU does not suck and MacBook can run all the basic apps without sucking extra juice and throwing out extra heat for no real reason like it does now, heavily relying on AMD GPU since Intel UHD 620 is terrible.

Do you think the two extra cores & extra storage is worth the extra $400? Do you think I should wait for the updates this fall? I’m really hoping Apple will update to WiFi 6 when it refreshes the MBP 16 with 10th gen processors.

    • @franciscoborrega4260
      @franciscoborrega4260 4 года назад +1

      When you plug a 16' in an external monitor the computer automatically only uses the discreet graphics and that why the fans turn to max. If you are not doing anything very grafic intensive, there is software that allows you to disable the discreet graphics and just run the Intel integrated graphics. That should solve the issue.

      Very unlikely that a new MBP 16” would have come out a month later, and now the MBP 13” getting a sudden refresh. If at all, the base 13” has doubled the price for upgrading RAM as of very recently.

    Great review, Max Tech. Love your thorough take on every device. My kingdom for WiFi 6 and a 1080p webcam! I would buy the 16” MBP in a heartbeat if they upgraded to WiFi 6. My sister’s 2018 HP Spectre x360 15T and my mom’s Surface Pro 6 have 1080p webcams, and you can really tell the difference. The new Dell XPS 15 and 17 has WiFi 6, so I’m looking forward to your reviews on them vs. the 16” MacBook Pro. I want to see how the graphics compare between them. The micro/mini-LED screen would amazing though!

      The 10th gen H series in MBP16 support up to DDR4 2933. Also Mini-LED may bring ProMotion finally to some high end Mac in 2021. As looking back on current Mac laptop, the screen is lacking smooth every time I finished using my iPad Pro 11. And Apple like to put the best of the best feature on high end Mac *just like 2019 MBP16. Who know Apple will do it once on MBP16 Late 2020 or Early 2021.

    I bought a 16" when it was released (I needed it for work) and I can say that it's easily the best  laptop I've ever owned. And I've owned most of them. No regrets. That said, If I could, I would wait also. Anyway, great vid as usual.

Although I'm a developer and relying on Windows and software compatibility as well, I didn't wanted to wait 2 more years before the full conversion to ARM was complete. I'm happy with this decision, at least my fingers don't hurt after 8 hours of typing anymore.

Or should I upgrade to the Dell XPS 15/17 from the Galaxy book Flex??

    @flapflapflap 4 года назад +2

    Hi, I like your channel and reviews of the MacBook Pro but I am disappointed you do not go into depth on the dGPU issue when connecting the MBP to an external 4K display. When connecting to an external 4K display, dGPU, by design is used to drive the external display (as opposed to iGPU) and as a result, there is a high wattage, dramatic increase in temperature and fan noise. Please make a video that talks about this and potential remedies. Thank you.

    • @MaxTechOfficial
      @MaxTechOfficial  4 года назад

      The latest Catalina update mentions a fix for this issue. Not sure if it applies to the dGPU or not, though. -Vadim

    • @flapflapflap
      @flapflapflap 4 года назад

      Max Tech Vadim, can you provide more detail surrounding this issue? There are countless forums and disappointed MBP users noting their MBP become very hot (sometimes dangerously hot) and noisy. They as a result return both the MBP and external display. This is bad for commerce. If there has been a fix, the fix should address the dGPU because that’s what’s being used to drive the external display. Does Clam Shell Mode help?

    I really wanted to upgrade my 2016 15in MacBook Pro, but there are some features that I think the MacBook Pro SORELY needs to stay at the top of the premium laptop market. Apple needs to add a 4K option, a much better camera with Face ID, and then I think the MacBook Pro would be back at the top where it needs to be.

    Well i have a few questions .
    I have been using it for 5 months now. And after 40 charge cycles the battery health has come down to 94% (as per istatmenu) and 93.4% (as per coconut battery).
    Also, taking about the battery life I never got a battery life more than 4hrs-4.5hrs (I’m talking about screen-on battery time), just listening to music on Spotify and browsing on Safari with 8-9 tabs on and also working on MS Word and TextEdit. (A couple of more light apps are also open though).
    **just to add a few more details, while listening music ok spotify my volume is not more than 60% while the brightness is never more than 50% as well.**
    What do you think is this normal? Both my battery health and battery life. Let me know because I’m a new MBP user (new mac user to be more precise) and find it a bit quacky because apple claims a battery life of 11 hrs (at ideal states) but I have learnt from many people that they even get battery life up-to 7-8hrs (screen on battery life) as well.
    Please let me know, what’s your suggestion on this.
    Thanks in advance.

      maybe your GPU is operating on some of those applications. Download gfxCardStatus and move to application etc... it will now be on toolbar. When you press it, you can select if you want discrete or integrated on. With integrated graphics now selected, you should be getting much more battery life
