Love these kind of videos! I bought a Macbook air 13 with M2 back in September for my last year of university because it was discounted here in my country, and since I go back home every weekend I love how light and portable it is. It feels very premium and I was happy to see it mentioned in the video! Hopefully when I'll get a job I'll be able to upgrade to a pro model. Love the content Josh!
You're a trusted source for the latest on all brands, and that I very much appreciate. You guys put a lot of time, effort into your videos, and it shows. Excellent content.
Suggestion: Review the framework 16 and discuss if it is a better deal than other laptops of a similar size and price, and why. Give a section mentioning the small wear and tear after 6 months or 1 year of use for gadgets, especially cheaper ones. Most laptop that i bought in the past that were sub 700$ had hinge issues and build quality problems after 2-3 years. Thats when i switched to ThinkPads
Great video. Nice to see a website where a person can love something other an Apple laptop. And reasonable reviews. I would have said great, but I think Josh really needs to include grading criteria that factors in price. For example, lower the score on MacBooks since they tend to carry premiums over "comparable" Windows laptops. What I like best is this site's take on important issues, such as keyboard, trackpad, screen, battery life, real world performance, port issues(e.g. USB-C with Gen 3.2 instead of USB 4 or TB4), slow card reader, etc. I'm not qualified enough to offer valid suggestions, but I would like to see more benchmarks that aren't cherry-picked to favour one form of Silicon over another. I'm not saying Just Josh does this, but it's fairly obvious with other reviewers. I've seen reviewers blow smoke out their asses over how good the MacBook Pros are at certain creative tasks, but not point out where the MacBooks fall short of the Windows laptops on creative tasks. Windows guys love to bring out Cinebench multi-core performance, but neglect many times to include real world performance.
This is a good comment. Thanks for the feedback. We are definitely trying to improve. We actually just switched to CBR24 which better tests Apple Sillicon btw.
I purchased a Zenbook 14 equipped with an AMD processor after watching a review on your channel about 6 months ago. I have to say, as a casual user, this laptop is exceptional! Highly recommended! Thank you for your recommendation Josh!
Agree I have the same sentiment, especially hate how snobby apple ecosystem users are and how much of a superiority complex they have, don't wanna waste extra money to be like these kinds of people
If you actually pay attention to some of the comments it’s never anyone who uses Apple products who says things like that. All kinds of people use either product. The fact that your limiting yourself to not use a product because you simply just don’t like it for reasons that literally have nothing to do with the performance or build quality of the product is absolutely insane to me. I love my Apple products and I also love my windows pc be open it’s just hardware and tech.
I just got a Macbook Pro M3 pro after not using a Mac for over a decade. I'm not a wealthy snob, I just wanted a solid editing workstation with no serious gaming capabilities that waste my time. I'm pretty sure you just believe the apple marketing demographic a bit too hard. Because so far this is the most solid piece of kit I've ever owned in my life, it just takes some getting used to
Its not a complex, if you even once buy a macbook and try macos you will see how much windows really sucks. But with this mindset I dont think you will
I would expect the dim and lackluster screen on the Alienware to be a detriment for video work. Probably a testament to the fine work the editors do that these videos look as good as they do.
First, thanks. And yes, you are correct there, but... our video editors tend to leave their room pretty dark. So that's why it's ok for them. Plus, each has an external 27-inch monitor for proofing the videos
This was great. Please do a series on flip/x360 laptops. I don't edit videos so I don't need huge power. I don't have a TV so I really like being able to stream vids from my nas using tailscale and jellyfin, and I like being to fold the keyboard away. Tbh I don't really use it as a tablet much, even though I do read lots of papers for work in OneNote. But the touchscreen capability is just very useful and nifty even if I may not use it frequently, because I never use a mouse
I'm totally in love with the Macbook pro 14 but I'm also an Excel/PowerBI power-user, so that laptop doesn't work for me. Althought I tried Parallels on a friend's Macbook air I realize that using mac for data sience and finance related work can reduce my productivity in order to use shorcuts, add-ins, accounting/finance software compatibility and so on.
Taylor could become a regular co host with his own videos in my opinion, he complements Josh perfectly. They are both different types but very good presenters.
Asus and Acer is 🗑. I had 3 laptops in my life, and the best of them was Sony Vaio( discontinued by Sony). The last one was MSI good performance, but upgrading ram or SSD is forcing you to buy new chassis because of cheap plastic, Vaio had special slots to upgrade or remove ram or HDD. These days, you have to open the bottom panel because no laptop comes with these slots. I want to buy a laptop for travel but I don't know which brand is good...
Actually your M2 pro is taking twice the time to render NOT FOR THE MEMORY BANDWITH. Is taking twice the time to render because your MAX machine has TWICE THE HARDWARE ENCONDERS. And video editing software is not even close to use all your memory bandwith. Your M3 pro should take about the same as the m2 pro, but I've read that the M3s have some issue with finalcut, so not sure.
My laptops of choice are the Huawei Matebook B5-430 (which I had to get because of work) and the MacBook Air M2 13” base model. They’re similarly specced, quite fast and responsive and both can handle all my daily job-related and personal workloads without issues - or overheating. Unless they do 4k video-editing and/or use the whole Adobe CC suite, these laptops fit the needs of basically everyone.
@@jsteve_15 I'm specifically referring to the next generation of Snapdragon ARM processors. Look up "Snapdragon X Elite" It will be a processor that will provide similar performance/benefits of Apple silicon powered laptops. Hopefully Microsoft can get their ARM version of Windows polished.
Hi Josh, Loved the video! I really need a new laptop for doing CAD, etc. on. I'm interested in the MacBook Pro for the many positives you have suggested, however I'm aware that to use software such as Inventor Professional, or Siemens NX, I would have to run it through one of the Windows emulators. Would it be possible to do some sort of review of how these types of software run on the new MacBooks? I have the licenses for each, so could provide these if needed. Thanks! Christian
Wow all of you guys are so eloquent on speaking and making it fun, and it clearly shows you guys enjoy making content for us. Keep us posted with new updates 🎉 great team 👍
I have been planning on building a PC this year but I am going to college next year and I’m wondering if a laptop is worth it instead. I want to go windows for gaming and video editing but not sure if there are any worthy laptops to replace a desktop. This video was helpful though!
Thank you so much for your suggestions and hard work! I love your videos! I am debating on getting the Zenbook 14, the Zenbook 14 Pro or Macbook air 15” M2or Macbook Air M1 13, I am a college student who does a lot of web browsing, writing, power point, excel, word… which one will you recommend me???? I want long battery and great display, also performance…!
@@Amyta225 chose window for school. Normally, softwares in schools do not available or work well with mac. Chose amd for battery life or wait for next year laptops with intel, intel 14th may have better power efficiency.
Great Vid Josh. Sorry to hear about ur finger. Sounds like u wounded up with finger food! If ur wound is over 2 days, you can’t have it stitched. Sterry strips, keep it covered, use antibiotic cream n once it’s closed up, cover it up n put vitamin E on it to reduce the scar. Hope u feel better
I happily accept the reduced performance of the M3 Pro MacBook Pro 14 to get much less heat and fan noise over the M3 Max, both the 14- and 16-inch variants.

Interesting, high quality video, thank you and keep up the good work!
Hi @JustJoshTech! I love your laptop review videos. They are very useful for me as a sysadmin and IT consultant. I'm just curious to know what antimalware solution you use with your team, and if you have any recommendations for different use cases, perhaps you could share that experience. Cheers!
Acer laptops are just a waste of money. My Acer Nitro 5 got short circuited by itself for no reason. It is not a surprise that none of their models are in any lists over the internet. Acer uses the lowest quality components in their motherboards along with cheapest screen, which has lowest colour accuracy.
Can you please tell me which one I should buy among these two laptops. 1) HP Victus 15 i5-13420H, NVIDIA RTX 2050, 16 gb RAM, 512 gb SSD, 144hz refresh rate (2023). 2) Lenovo Xiaoxin Pro 16 i5-13500H, 16 gb RAM, 1 Tb SSD, 2.5K display, 120hz refresh rate (2023).
Good advice, but some teammembers sound like robots with weird timing and tone of voice. Auto prompters are not necessarily the best idea when people are not used to it.
If people are charismatic, know what they're talking about and can improvise, then for sure let them just do their thing. But, for inexperienced public speakers, it's best to give them something to look/focus at and have their lines on the prompter. It WILL still sound stiff, but that's better than looking unprofessional or losing track of thought/getting nervous from lots of retakes etc.
Your rendering being half the speed likely is about there being one media engine as opposed to two in a max chip. I can't fathom the memory bandwidth being the limiting factor if the rendering speeds scale linearly 2x with the addition of another media engine.
What is the coolest laptop. My main concern is the hot and burning laptops it burns my skin. What do you suggest? No price limitations as long as it is cool for the hands. And fast and not laggy
@@JustJoshTech loving it, just perfect for me. Haven't found any flaws or felt like missing any features after couple of months. I even prefer the look and upgradability over the more expensive Legion 9i Pro and the price to performance was just unmatched by others 🔥
great video josh!! I’m a medical student and I want to buy a macbook, I use laptop most of the time for studying and watching videos and part time I edit some videos and photos and I want to start my RUclips channel so I would need a good laptop to buy to last at least 4 years until the end of my studies. Can you help me which macbook to buy based on these?( I was considering buying the m3pro with that extra core, as far as pro chip money is not an issue for me but I can’t afford the max chips)
Hey Josh, thanks for the useful information you’re giving to us with your team! I just wanna ask for your advice, which one would you recommend for me? MacBook Air M2 (13.6 inch - 8 ram - 256 ssd) Asus Zenbook 14X (14.5 inch 2.8K OLED - i9-13900H - 16 ram - 1tb ssd 4.0) Both are priced at 1300$
both laptops are amazing but from my personal use I found that I am able to do a lot more with a windows laptop in my use case. The m2 MacBook seems to be held back by Mac OS and only being Able to use certain applications.
pick windows one, 16gb ram and 1tb ssd will help you on the long run, however if you intend to just use it for browsing then pick up macbook, its battery life amazing, no fans always cold to the touch
I just looked at the Legion laptops they have insane good prices especially with Ryzen... But what you just said scares me. 10 years ago I had a powerful intel laptop and a beast at home with AMD. Adobe CS5 at the time just didn't work on AMD.
Enjoyable videos very informative, certainly great when searching for a new laptop, it sometimes can be a bit frustrating though as some of the specs on certain laptops are different in the U.K. & obviously the links you provide are for the US
With the issues with bandwidth on m3 pro, what do you recommen for mac laptop for audio recording and editing? I know the m4 should be out by late 2024, you think the issues will be resolved by then?
hello josh, i am experiencing tingling like sensation while charging with the given power adaptor itself on the apple macbook, could not find why, it is specific to my macbook, tried it on multiple outlets and sockets still the same issue on all over the lid, i could find people on internet saying it is normal, if it is normal why apple is not stating this. do you ever experience the same slight electric shock sensation while charging macbook pro?
Yes, I can confirm this on two different MacBook Pro's. There is just this slight electric sensation if you stroke the metal body while charging. Apparently its called leak current or creeping current. All my Mac-using colleagues never recognised it, so it must be rather weak..
I have question for fast video editing should I look at the ram or processor. For example should I go with ryzen 5 16 gb ram or Intel I7 8 gb ram? Does processor matter or ram/ dedicated graphics card matter for better performance?
Was a little surprised not everyone there who edits video uses a Macbook Pro. I guess it comes down to everyone's preferences and what they do outside of it.
Yes it does. Plus MacBook M3 Max gets a little warm and you do hear some fan noise. Its not like the MacBook's with M series of old. Still quieter and cooler than a Windows laptop though. Also it isn't as fast for editing as a high end PC laptop. We definitely find the PC laptops are smoother and render faster (i'm referring to high end video editing PC laptops like those mentioned in the video)
At 6:45 you might be mistaken by stating video rendering takes twice as long due to memory bandwidth limitations. Imho it’s linked to the difference between Pro and Max chips by the Max variant sporting 2 media engines compared to the pro having one. From an engineering standpoint this kind of reduction wouldn’t warrant halving of the performance. It sure takes a hit but my hunch is the media engines.
I am extremely aware of that. Please take a look at my latest video. I show a graph comparing Pro vs Max. I specifically compare M2 Pro 12C vs M3 Pro 12C. Both have the same number of Media Engines. You will see the rendering difference is in the exact ratio of the difference in memory bandwidth
Im a cumputer engineer with pathway in cybersecurity student and im deciding between a MacBook air m3 and the asus zenbook 14 oled which one do you recommend
Hi Josh, what do you make of the M2 Macbook Air 13” with 16GB RAM and 512GB storage for someone looking to do Software Development? It’s on the Apple refurbished store atm and I know someone that can get me staff discount on top of that. Basically works out around 30% off retail price. Is the lack of a fan, and an M2 chip instead of an M2 Pro Chip a deal breaker ?
Please, could someone explain the bandwidth limitation on the M3 chip? I didn't knew anything about it and it might hold me to go instead to the M2 one, thanks in advance the good soul who can explain me this point
We actually did 2 this year. The student laptop video we got one in for and didn't like it. Right now, we have one in for a creator laptop video. The Surface Studio 2. We don't like it. It gets very warm to the touch and blows hot air at our hands, as the fans and vents are in a weird place. Hope that helps
If you’re going to ”Give Away” a laptop unit, don’t ask the recipient to pay the taxes-- because they probably can’t afford to buy one so why would you ask them to pay government thievery of EU or other taxes. Your not helping anyone if you do…

I’m a medical student and I want to buy a macbook, I use laptop most of the time for studying and watching videos and part time I edit some videos and photos and I want to start my RUclips channel so I would need a good laptop to buy to last at least 4 years until the end of my studies. Can you help me which macbook to buy based on these?( I was considering buying the m3pro with that extra core, as far as pro chip money is not an issue for me but I can’t afford the max chips)
Looking forward to a review of the Asus expertbook b9 !
Which apple keyboards suffer from the shiny keys problem? Is it just the MacBooks or their standalone keyboards too?
Not MacBooks
I need one of those Josh thx. Good informative video.
Hey Josh, thanks for the useful information you’re giving to us with your team! I just wanna ask for your advice, which one would you recommend for me?
MacBook Air M2 (13.6 inch - 8 ram - 256 ssd)
Asus Zenbook 14X (14.5 inch 2.8K OLED - i9-13900H - 16 ram - 1tb ssd 4.0)
Both are priced at 1300$
both laptops are amazing but from my personal use I found that I am able to do a lot more with a windows laptop in my use case. The m2 MacBook seems to be held back by Mac OS and only being Able to use certain applications.
pick windows one, 16gb ram and 1tb ssd will help you on the long run, however if you intend to just use it for browsing then pick up macbook, its battery life amazing, no fans always cold to the touch
I just looked at the Legion laptops they have insane good prices especially with Ryzen... But what you just said scares me. 10 years ago I had a powerful intel laptop and a beast at home with AMD. Adobe CS5 at the time just didn't work on AMD.
I would rather want to know, which laptop Josh's famous Mum is using 😂
Enjoyable videos very informative, certainly great when searching for a new laptop, it sometimes can be a bit frustrating though as some of the specs on certain laptops are different in the U.K. & obviously the links you provide are for the US
When we get bigger we will definitely add international links. Apologies for now
No need to apologise, thanks for the videos.
With the issues with bandwidth on m3 pro, what do you recommen for mac laptop for audio recording and editing? I know the m4 should be out by late 2024, you think the issues will be resolved by then?
Hello Josh if you must choose only one, would you go with the 14" or 16" MacBook Pro - M2 Pro version.
14inch for me due to portability
Surprised many don’t use a Mac
Great useful youtube video on laptops thanks
hello josh, i am experiencing tingling like sensation while charging with the given power adaptor itself on the apple macbook, could not find why, it is specific to my macbook, tried it on multiple outlets and sockets still the same issue on all over the lid, i could find people on internet saying it is normal, if it is normal why apple is not stating this. do you ever experience the same slight electric shock sensation while charging macbook pro?
Yes, I can confirm this on two different MacBook Pro's. There is just this slight electric sensation if you stroke the metal body while charging. Apparently its called leak current or creeping current. All my Mac-using colleagues never recognised it, so it must be rather weak..
The M3 base pro is that sweet spot between the 13 and 15 Air IMHO.
The hp guy was great and versatile .... 😂😂😂
Watched so many videos for my next laptop. U guys sold me on the Alienware
I have question for fast video editing should I look at the ram or processor. For example should I go with ryzen 5 16 gb ram or Intel I7 8 gb ram? Does processor matter or ram/ dedicated graphics card matter for better performance?
Would you recommend the framework 13 Amd for a student ?
Definitely
Was a little surprised not everyone there who edits video uses a Macbook Pro. I guess it comes down to everyone's preferences and what they do outside of it.
Yes it does. Plus MacBook M3 Max gets a little warm and you do hear some fan noise. Its not like the MacBook's with M series of old. Still quieter and cooler than a Windows laptop though. Also it isn't as fast for editing as a high end PC laptop. We definitely find the PC laptops are smoother and render faster (i'm referring to high end video editing PC laptops like those mentioned in the video)
Because MacBook is just hype created by teenage isheeps
At 6:45 you might be mistaken by stating video rendering takes twice as long due to memory bandwidth limitations. Imho it’s linked to the difference between Pro and Max chips by the Max variant sporting 2 media engines compared to the pro having one. From an engineering standpoint this kind of reduction wouldn’t warrant halving of the performance. It sure takes a hit but my hunch is the media engines.
I am extremely aware of that. Please take a look at my latest video. I show a graph comparing Pro vs Max. I specifically compare M2 Pro 12C vs M3 Pro 12C. Both have the same number of Media Engines. You will see the rendering difference is in the exact ratio of the difference in memory bandwidth
This is the one i mean ruclips.net/video/UkwkmfNKPX4/видео.html
What happened to Dell XPSs and why is no one recommending them? is it the price?
Please make a full review of the Lenovo Slim Pro 9 14” please 😭
Im a cumputer engineer with pathway in cybersecurity student and im deciding between a MacBook air m3 and the asus zenbook 14 oled which one do you recommend
Hi Josh, what do you make of the M2 Macbook Air 13” with 16GB RAM and 512GB storage for someone looking to do Software Development? It’s on the Apple refurbished store atm and I know someone that can get me staff discount on top of that. Basically works out around 30% off retail price. Is the lack of a fan, and an M2 chip instead of an M2 Pro Chip a deal breaker ?
Depends on whheater condition near u....if too hot during summers u know
Hi josh. I am trying to decide between lenovo legion slim 7 gen 8 AMD or slim 7i. Wich one would you recomend me? They are at the same price.
If the Slim 7i comes with RTX 4070 i'd get that. Otherwise the AMD one... OR if you need Intel for your software like Premier Pro
can you do a proper video of a laptop 4060 vs 4070 in games and other productive tasks
Ahh love you for the effort and integrity always josh always ❤🎉
Thanks for the support
Higher bandwidth is not required hence they reduced it
could you please review about the galaxy book 3 360, evo core i7 and 1TB storage with 15.6 inch screen.
Macbook would be perfect without the notch......
The Discord Server invite does not work on the Giveaway page. :(
Your Discord joining link is expired, how can i participate for the giveaway!!
Please help me out
Please do a video on best affordable coding laptop.
Great video bro.
Even though I still can’t afford any of those laptops for now😅
Josh can you tell me who won ur contest for this computer. I got an email from youtube saying I won
Hey Josh, the Discord link on your site is down, could you fix it up.
Can you check now and let me know? I updated it. Thanks
Are you going to do a giveaway on the Legion laptop? :)
Okay, Josh and crew --- I've subbed now. I hope your mothers are prouder now.
Is the contest for the legion 5 still going
Please, could someone explain the bandwidth limitation on the M3 chip? I didn't knew anything about it and it might hold me to go instead to the M2 one, thanks in advance the good soul who can explain me this point
The new Dell xps 14 and xps 16 looks good.
I’m curious why you don’t review Microsoft surface devices - specifically surface laptops??
We actually did 2 this year. The student laptop video we got one in for and didn't like it. Right now, we have one in for a creator laptop video. The Surface Studio 2. We don't like it. It gets very warm to the touch and blows hot air at our hands, as the fans and vents are in a weird place. Hope that helps
Thanks, I enjoyed that. I'm a MacBook Pro 14 fan too, I've got an M1 Pro model and have no need (or intention) to upgrade.
How can you forget to mention that the Alienware laptop/power brick weighs fifty pounds
I just returned my new $2,000 MacBook Pro M3 14. That computer SUCKED. Why does Apple have such a small keyboard? Do you all not type on those?!
We definitely do. Try the new HP Spectre 14 for 2024. It's keyboard is a step above the MacBook's. Clickier, larger
@@JustJoshTech thanks, I'll look into that.
MacBook air 15 would have done you fine. You don't need 14.
I have a MAX M3 14 inch and its far from a disaster…. blender, davinci, xcode….
where tf is taylor’s neck?
So it's not just Josh?
😂
If you’re going to ”Give Away” a laptop unit, don’t ask the recipient to pay the taxes-- because they probably can’t afford to buy one so why would you ask them to pay government thievery of EU or other taxes. Your not helping anyone if you do…
