Even if it were still a 13.3" display, having thinner bezels would be nice, but it isn't a must have. What I'm most interested in is the 11th Gen Intel Graphics that are ont he 10th Gen Ice Lake silicon. I'd love to see more on that.
Why is nobody talking about the dual fan, better speakers and better microphones present only in the higher end models? That's a critical point to mention for everyone thinking about which one to get
People who buy the higher end models care about that stuff, but I chose the base model because opening Safari will load just as quickly as the higher end models. Also I only use it to watch RUclips and the odd bit of Netflix hahah
For me, if the high end 13 inch do the job its fine by me, I am a designer and I would need performance, although I loved the 16 inch but: 1- its a bit expensive for me 2- I have a mac at the office and a PC desktop at home so I won’t be using it that often I liked the Macbook Air but I am a designer and I need performance and the most thing I liked about the updated 13inch: 1- 16 GB RAM 2- Magic Keyboard As for the screen, if I would need a big screen I could simply connect the laptop into a monitor.

I also think the Apple Pencil and touch layout is more intuitive and conducive to video editing than mouse and keyboard.

Hey man, I’m on the verge of pulling the trigger and buying this specific MacBook Pro, and i just want to say that when i do pull the trigger it will be because of all the information you imparted in this video. Going out of your way to explain the differences and pros/cons of the 8th gen processors and the 10th gen processors is great. Keep up the amazing work.
Kafala Well we know that's never coming back. Apple has decided to treat ports like their phone cases. They made a market for ports by removing them. Just like the durability of phones (or lack thereof) created a market for phone cases. At this point, I'm just glad they came to their senses and pulled themselves from the brink by going back to the scissor switch keyboard. All that being said however, there is no excuse for paying upwards of 3 grand and I still have to use an external webcam. That can never be justified.
I used to be an android guy and my phone broke so i had to get one and my friend was upgrading so I bought it as a temporary phone and immm into to Appleboi now 😆
Would you recommend an app developer a base 13 inch MacBook Pro with RAM upgrade to 16 GB and 512 GB SSD upgrade without the processor upgrade or directly get the 1799 one? I personally don't really care about the whole marketing around the processor generation tbh but storage and RAM do affect my work more I've noticed
Just ordered a new 13" 4 port MacBook Pro with 16gb of RAM. Last years 8gb system could not handle the latest version of Xcode. Currently using a 16" i9 system which I find too big, with a very LOUD fan and intend to return. The 13" form factor is perfect for my workflow.
i upgraded from the mid 2017 macbook pro 256 8gb ram to the higher end macbook pro 2020, it runs SOOOOO HOT !! how can apple allow the fan to run at 0 RMP even when the processor is at 70 C!! ? I had to downlaod an app to turb off turbo-boost (Endurance app) and anotehr app to manually turn on both fans at max RPM (Mac Fan Control app), is there an app you know that can undervolt or underclock the processor from 2.0 Ghz to something like 1.5 to reduce the heat and prolonge the battery life ?
Glad it got the new keyboard and new processors at least in the top end of its range out. But not that tempted to not wait for a 14" Tiger Lake system hopefully with Mini LED instead. Hopefully WWDC also clears up some of the future in terms of ARM and if x86 will stay around alongside it.
Personally my mbp 13 lasts me 7 hours with my typing-coding-keynote workflow I love the Touch Bar because it exposes all the shortcuts that are typically done by the F keys that I never remember
You're the absolutely best, the top of top for tech reviews and analysis. Thank you for the time notation / chapters, are amazing!! Keep going, I'm a Ritchieber! ... One last thing, are you planning to drop a video about the new update of Logic Pro X 10.5? All the best to you and your family.
Excellent review. I decided to go with the 4-port MBP for many of the reasons outlined here. I was originally looking at the base model MBP with an upgrade to 16gb, also a great machine. Thank you for the helpful info!
I legit sang "Hallelujah!" out loud a week ago, when I found out about the release of the new MacBook Pro and, yes, knowing that finally - FINALLY!- I would be able to upgrade my old 2014 MBP. It is ALL about the keyboard this time around. The nightmare is over, the butterfly is dead and buried, and hopefully Apple has learned a few lessons after the past four years... Thanks for the thorough review, Mr. Ritchie, I'm set on getting the higher end model this time, but with the i5 processor. I simply cannot wait!!!
The professional world post COVID has changed, today an engineer, lawyer, ecc, needs to talk remotely with customers, so, sound quality and video quality is very very important. Even today, if I want a good image to give a conference I have to sign in twice, one for the ppt presentation and the other for video and sound with iPhone. A good camera at MacBook is a must, not a nice to have.
I cannot find anyone comparing Macbook Pro's 10th gen cpu's i5 vs i7. It is the one review comparison I'm waiting for before deciding which one to buy.
Hi Rene, love your video. I am looking to get a MBP 16. but I am hesitating if its better to wait or the next update. Will the MBP 16 2020 be coming any time soon?
Great review! Personally, I prefer the Pro wider gamut not from a professional standpoint - but simply because it makes the display look a lot better. I think it's a point all consumers should consider
I got the 13” MacBook plus lol and I have been waiting for the new keyboard to come to replace my 2012 MacBook Pro 13 like most people hanging on to the 2012 model the new tenth gen models are what most people need to update their MacBook with the newer design body and screen is a great upgrade from the 2012 models
What will I need to prioritise in buying a much newer Mac? I would be upgrading from a 2013 MacBook Air. I do prefer the Touch Bar way more than the function key role
Media and function keys forever. I keep tapping the touch bar with my fat fingers while working or typing and waking up Siri or doing something else. It's too responsive. If I don't touch a button on purpose it better not get in the way. and the touch bar gets in the way.
Rene can you do a multi user review for macbook pro. like 1. MBP 13 review , a videographers perspective 2. MBP 13 review , a Software engineers perspective 3 MBP 13 review , a music producer's perspective 4. MBP 13 review , a Media consumers perspective 5. MBP 13 review , a regular 9-5 office goer( Finance & banking professional/Marketing professiona/ CXO position holder l etc) perspective 6 MBP 13 review , a non stem student perspective
Great review! Very informative as always. I agree, I'd like to see better webcams on the pro. P.S. - I also still have a 2009 original aluminum unibody MacBook and it's still alive and kicking. IMO more than any PC laptop can say ie Dell (well at least from back then that is). Hope you're doing well there! Cheers!
Rene Ritchie so far so good! Upgraded from a 2012 Air so this thing is a great jump in performance even though I didn’t get the model with the 10th gen chip. I did upgrade to 16 GB of RAM so I should be good for another 8 years hopefully.
Hi Rene Ritche, in need of the laptop what do you suggest MacBook Pro 16 4K $ vs Dell Xps 17 32b ram [ Nv graphics, not so sure ] most of my day passes infront of computer so, robust, 2 years future proof, no lag a lot of ram and graphics usage. FYI a lot of times pushing clk speed to max [turbo boost]. lots and lots of compilations may take 6-10 hrs a stretch so in need of your opinion. Money is not a problem Rene Ritche,.
I’ve decided to go back to school and finish my Cyber Security degree. I’m trying to decide which MacBook Pro I should get. From where I left off my next set of classes will be about Linux and Virtualization. So I’m trying to decide if the base 2020 pro with upgraded ram would be fine, or if I should go with 16GB ram and a 512GB storage. But at that point the pro with the 10th gen CPU is only a little more. Maybe even getting the 16 inch pro, but I don’t really want a laptop that big. Not sure what I should get
Rene, How can I watch 4K on youtube when using the Safari Browser? I am using a 2018 MBP 15 with a 50 Inch 4k monitor and I can only watch 4K content on youtube when using Firefox or Chrome. I would like to only use Safari. Any work arounds?
Hi! I was wondering what the model number was on the 2020 Macbook Pro? I wanted to order a case but I know it is slightly thicker than the 2019 MBP and don't know if any cases on amazon right now would fit!
4 года назад
Amazing video once again, Rene. And I'm not a Touch bar person at all.
Thanks for the review! I've just recently bought the 4 port MBP and I've noticed that it heats up quite badly when I charge it and when I use video conferencing. I was wondering if this is normal for the MBP or if this is just an issue with my specific computer? Have you noticed any of these issues while using your MBP?
tell me what is the best thing to do. I bought the 2019 MacBook pro 4 USB -C, is it wise to bump up the Ram to 16GB and SSD to 1TB or go for the 2020 MacBook pro 4 USB-C?
I have one of those. Still going strong. I will wait for the 14 "or buy the new 16 next year. This 13" will be ideal but 8th generación cpu its a big let down
Hi Rene ! My daughter will order this Macbook Pro soon. I like your review! What your transportation Cie when your order from Apple, to be more efficient? I wait for my 16" MBP for so long....!
If one does not want to spend the money for the higher end MacBook pro, would you recommend the MacBook air with i5 and 16GB RAM? It seems like that is more powerful than the entry level MacBook pro due to the 10th gen processors, higher end graphics, and bumping the RAM.
No those aren’t powerful, they look powerful because new ‘architecture’ but in reality they are just y processors that can’t sustain loads. Also, they don’t have better cooling than the Pro Ones
I wish to connect either this MacBook Pro while at home to 5k monitor on my desk, or the Air. Would the Air have enough power to push the 5k pixels at i5 level?
ARM-based units will be arriving sooner than many are predicting... ARM Macs will kill Hackintoshes with the accompanying iteration of MacOS... not 3rd party apps themselves, only booting/running with strict hardware "handshaking" ....and don't be surprised if this is the last Gen of Intel-based "mobile" Macs...These new Mobile Macs will finally be fully-realized, sealed, configure at purchase models only...the iPad Pro is the best current example of this concept...In a nutshell, iPads, iPhones and Laptops will all run the same flavor of OS.....Consider the tighter integration, performance and power management now do-able with the A13 processor....Also, IMO, Apple sunk too much into the new prestige Mac Pro line....really just to prove they could do it....oh, and forget about Boot Camp.......
Wow, that's slightly embarrassing. The iPhone camera blows it away. If they can fit that into an 8.3mm iPhone, I really don't see why they can't fit that into a Macbook display, it's not that much thinner.
Hi Rene, I just found your channel and I love it. I want to replace my old 2013 Macbook Air and I'm not sure which one I should buy. The Air with the I5 with 16 GB of RAM or the Basic Pro with 16 GB of Ram. Both are about the same price. I'll be using this laptop for some light video editing and office work with many documents open at the same time. Thanks!
I don't know, Rene. I wanted to see if you touched on thermals on these. Some of us can't afford to have different Apple devices to distribute the load, so I only have my MBP 2019 (i7, 32Gb or ram) as my all-in-one station for work and play. This thing gets hot quite a bit already, when I push it with Excel. I can imagine how it gets when editing video. As much as I love my MBP, there is so much power you can cram into a limited space. I hope the next design iteration takes this into consideration.
I included Ian Cutress of AnandTech explaining "thermals" because, thanks to a lot of bad RUclips videos, they've become really misunderstood. And yeah, it gets hot. Apple has no problem running at thermal max. They could make the MacBook's bigger and put more elaborate cooling in them, but those probably aren't the MacBooks they want to make or anyone would want to buy. Or, like gaming laptops, you'd unplug them and they'd go into super low perf mode until they died. Quickly.There's no cheating physics, alas.
@@ReneRitchie Point taken. Thanks for your response. I get the balance Ian Cutress was talking about, I just wanted to see if getting as hot as they do was something everyone was experiencing, and felt it could impact the life of the machine. Especially for us that buy them for their longevity. D2D made a good point on how hot these get, which is what I was basing me on, plus my own experience. No cheating physics, for sure. Thanks again for taking the time. I appreciate your work.

Hi! I was wondering what the model number was on the 2020 Macbook Pro? I wanted to order a case but I know it is slightly thicker than the 2019 MBP and don't know if any cases on amazon right now would fit!
Amazing video once again, Rene. And I'm not a Touch bar person at all.
Unreal intro
Can you please make an egpu video with the new MBP. Also do all TB3 ports on the MBP have full speed with 4lanes or 2 lanes per port?
Thanks for the review! I've just recently bought the 4 port MBP and I've noticed that it heats up quite badly when I charge it and when I use video conferencing. I was wondering if this is normal for the MBP or if this is just an issue with my specific computer? Have you noticed any of these issues while using your MBP?
tell me what is the best thing to do. I bought the 2019 MacBook pro 4 USB -C, is it wise to bump up the Ram to 16GB and SSD to 1TB or go for the 2020 MacBook pro 4 USB-C?
Wait what? New channel? Omg what was it before? Did I miss something lol?
Hmm should I get a new battery for my 15inch 2014 mbp or just get this new higher end base model?
I have one of those. Still going strong. I will wait for the 14 "or buy the new 16 next year. This 13" will be ideal but 8th generación cpu its a big let down
Same here. Mines base model with Iris 5200 ones. Still a tank even for graphics work.
Hi Rene ! My daughter will order this Macbook Pro soon. I like your review! What your transportation Cie when your order from Apple, to be more efficient? I wait for my 16" MBP for so long....!
If one does not want to spend the money for the higher end MacBook pro, would you recommend the MacBook air with i5 and 16GB RAM? It seems like that is more powerful than the entry level MacBook pro due to the 10th gen processors, higher end graphics, and bumping the RAM.
No those aren’t powerful, they look powerful because new ‘architecture’ but in reality they are just y processors that can’t sustain loads. Also, they don’t have better cooling than the Pro Ones
Also, it depends on your work; if you barely made the Pro Sweat, then I think what you are suggesting is a splendid option.
I wish to connect either this MacBook Pro while at home to 5k monitor on my desk, or the Air. Would the Air have enough power to push the 5k pixels at i5 level?
Apple will never remove the Touch Bar, as Peter Paul Chato said a while ago, Apple don't want a 'Told you so!' moment.
Function and media keys! I'm not getting a new laptop until Wi-Fi 6 nor an iPhone until 5G.
I want Apple to go all-in on the touch bar.
ARM-based units will be arriving sooner than many are predicting... ARM Macs will kill Hackintoshes with the accompanying iteration of MacOS... not 3rd party apps themselves, only booting/running with strict hardware "handshaking" ....and don't be surprised if this is the last Gen of Intel-based "mobile" Macs...These new Mobile Macs will finally be fully-realized, sealed, configure at purchase models only...the iPad Pro is the best current example of this concept...In a nutshell, iPads, iPhones and Laptops will all run the same flavor of OS.....Consider the tighter integration, performance and power management now do-able with the A13 processor....Also, IMO, Apple sunk too much into the new prestige Mac Pro line....really just to prove they could do it....oh, and forget about Boot Camp.......
Wow, that's slightly embarrassing. The iPhone camera blows it away. If they can fit that into an 8.3mm iPhone, I really don't see why they can't fit that into a Macbook display, it's not that much thinner.
Watching on 10th gen MacBook Pro 13 :D
Is 16 or 8 gb ram enough for coding or computer science classes?
Axel Dellisola 8 gigs is fine 16 is great
okay fine! but I wonder why the new channel?
you know you can breath between each sentence... right?
Hi Rene, I just found your channel and I love it. I want to replace my old 2013 Macbook Air and I'm not sure which one I should buy. The Air with the I5 with 16 GB of RAM or the Basic Pro with 16 GB of Ram. Both are about the same price. I'll be using this laptop for some light video editing and office work with many documents open at the same time. Thanks!
Is the i7 10 gen worth the upgrade from the i5 10 gen?
Tony Smith no it’s only 3-6% faster
Thx
Any idea about the release of air tags
Media keys bring em back or software media keys by default
I don't know, Rene. I wanted to see if you touched on thermals on these. Some of us can't afford to have different Apple devices to distribute the load, so I only have my MBP 2019 (i7, 32Gb or ram) as my all-in-one station for work and play. This thing gets hot quite a bit already, when I push it with Excel. I can imagine how it gets when editing video. As much as I love my MBP, there is so much power you can cram into a limited space. I hope the next design iteration takes this into consideration.
I included Ian Cutress of AnandTech explaining "thermals" because, thanks to a lot of bad RUclips videos, they've become really misunderstood. And yeah, it gets hot. Apple has no problem running at thermal max. They could make the MacBook's bigger and put more elaborate cooling in them, but those probably aren't the MacBooks they want to make or anyone would want to buy. Or, like gaming laptops, you'd unplug them and they'd go into super low perf mode until they died. Quickly.There's no cheating physics, alas.
@@ReneRitchie Point taken. Thanks for your response. I get the balance Ian Cutress was talking about, I just wanted to see if getting as hot as they do was something everyone was experiencing, and felt it could impact the life of the machine. Especially for us that buy them for their longevity. D2D made a good point on how hot these get, which is what I was basing me on, plus my own experience. No cheating physics, for sure. Thanks again for taking the time. I appreciate your work.
Didier Hernandez hope so for you too bro.
Does it have a headphone jack?
yea
With respect, I don't think Apple should call a product "Pro" without a dedicating GPU.
I just ordered the base 13 inch pro I had the air but it would over heat so I sold it so now I’m tryna sell my iPad Pro lol to help pay it off
How long was shipping for you? It’s been 2 days and still processing, I got the $1799 model
Any update? Ordered mine around the same time as this comment and still processing
Robert FlipKick sadly it’s been processing for 13 days, and tomorrow marks two weeks of processing, I’m highkey tired of waiting lmao
I'm looking for an ultra book that I can use for my own projects and work. I'm mainly a windows guy and really considering jumping. Do you recommend it?
Buy the MacBook air
