    I've picked the one without nano-texture because I want more rich and punchy colors. :) Mine is the base 14" with M4 Pro -> 24GB RAM/512GB SSD.

      ​@jc-iz8lp the 16 has a more powerful M4 Pro processor and the speakers are a lot more powerful, bigger fans make it run faster and quieter than even the 14 inch version with the same processor and the bigger screen could all be reasons potentially

    You're going to extremes. You're saying if you're stacking 4K footage on very complex long and heavy duty video editing then maybe this isn't enough but if you're doing a quick TikTok is fine. There's a lot between there that this laptop is capable of doing. In fact is capable of doing most work anyone can throw at it.

      @@google_doodles-games In my opinion, I like the glossy look; I also like the colours that glossy has; it's more dark, which I like. I also use my MacBook inside most of the time, so there's no need for me or people like me to get a Nano. It also looks weird to me, looks cheap, and I have been hearing a lot of people returning their Macs because the nano wasn't what they expected.

Or just rock no case if I’m investing in AppleCare?

    Please Don’t buy base model if you are a professional 💀 video files, specially RAW are large. Clients sometimes need footage from previous projects so you have keep juggling between external ssds very inefficient workflow.
    Get a PC with lots of storage, cheaper & way more faster than MAC.

    I need to look up a size comparison for my MacBook i7 15in 2016. To the m4 14 and 16 inch.
    I want a smaller screen than my 15in just because when I use it when in bed watching tv it blocks my tv unless I’m sitting up which idk. But the cooling is my biggest concern for a compact 14in compared to the 16 where it has a larger chasity.
    Nano texture I’ve been on the fence with. Less eye strain would be nice but the deep blacks and color richness I like with the gloss
