I really like your video. I love how you did not use benchmarks because honestly nobody cares about benchmarks love your real world examples. I love your hearing aids they make you look, smart and handsome. ❤
try Alienware OLED display you'll thank me later, very close to apple studio display with a fraction of the price. In my opinion Apple Studio display sits in an awkward position where its too good for the average person to use but not good enough for the pro-sumer such as color grading ( most uses the sony industry standard display TRIMASTER )
Total bs, apple purposefully make 4k monitors look shit so that people buy their 5k monitors. Just get betterdisplay app and everything will look crisp on 4k monitors
In 2024 hell no. There are many displays that can provide nearly the same picture quality for less money. There is no way that a 27-inch 1.5k display is worth the price.
@@TechPKWI also was very sceptical and hesitated. But after 1 year of experience this is the best purchase after macbook for my work setup. Its worth the price
Very nice review. Your dark macbook looks amazing. I’ve been a front-end developer using an M1 Pro for the past two and a half years, and it still works perfectly. However, the only downside is that 16GB of RAM is not sufficient.
Thanks for watching! For future videos, do you prefer watching content in HDR or SDR? I have been getting mixed feedback! This video was an experimentation into the HDR world
*Roughly £120k in my portfolio are in tech/TSLA stocks, can I get an advice on any other stocks that I can acquire to diversify my reserve across multiple markets while creating a comprehensive portfolio allocation that balances my concerns of risk aversion and returns that meet yearly inflation*
stocks are overrated now. buy gold , 5% in crypto . rest in cash. and wait for the stock/property/land. price to crash . but them after it stops dropping for 7 - 12 months at the bottom.
I successfully trade in my own portfolio, and also follow others because I'm interested in their strategies. I realized I've got better at managing the trader's strategies too. There's nothing wrong at all with having someone far more dedicated manage some of your portfolio.
I have been thinking about how to grow my reserve by atleast 40% or more within months. I will be grateful if you can give tips or anything on how to make good market picks and how I can get my portfolio diversified and balanced in order to meet up my target..
It is really expensive but it is worth it if you push your machine. Got the space black 16-inch M3 Max with 64 GB and 1 TB SSD. I love it. But the M3 Pro is great and more affordable alternative.
just the other day I actually heard my fans kicked in AND felt the laptop get warm. I was oddly proud but also relieved because I thought it was overkill at first.
@@TechPKW And with Apple Intelligence needing A17 Pro minimum on iPhone, M3 Max should be able to handle most if not all of those features when they come to MacOS.
What a great, funny and entertaining review. I really loved the "Benchmarks are just numbers on papers. Let's get down to use cases.". Thanks for that! <3
Great review Phillip. Thanks for the content! I liked how you infant emphasized how the car gets better with every update and makes it feel like a new car. I took advantage of the 0.99% financing last month and I’m waiting on a delivery date for my model Y. All the best!
Phillip excellent review of your Tesla. Thank you for all the detail information about your car. I just got a model three about a month ago. You and your car look great.
I just bought the 16" M3 MAX MBP also. I am now living in poverty because of the price but who cares, I am endlessly happy with this notebook. I got mine specced with 64GB of memory and 2TB Storage. it's a beast!
@@TechPKW I had a MacBook Air M1, RAM 8, SSD 256. The performance was bad and I sold it. Do you recommend the RAM 18 M3 Pro for 3D, landscape and parallel programs with a 16-inch screen?
To my understanding I think revit only runs on windows and I’ve been told it can be quite DEMANDING. With parallels, it splits your ram and CPU in half so for example, if you have 18gb of ram, you will only have 9gb of ram to use in parallels which is hardly any. plus it’s a VM and not a true software, so I would expect performance issues especially with an intensive application such as Revit. Straight from parallels website: “We strongly recommend not to assign more than half of the total Mac's RAM since it may cause severe performance degradation of both Mac and the virtual machine.” If this machine is going to be primarily for your architecture work I feel like Apple would not be the best for that unfortunately :(
@@TechPKW Thank you, brother, for the clarification, but I love Apple. I will buy 36 ram. I only need the Revit program to display it in parallel programs, while the rendering programs are directly on the Apple system.
@oth3b I think more ram the better given how parallels work ! But, you know your workflow and the demands better than anyone so I think trust your gut with this one. You can always test it out and if it still isn’t performing as you’d like, you can easily return to Apple within 14 days. I bought the 14 inch at first, then returned it for the 16 inch. Apple took it back just as easily as returning an amazon package. Let me know how it performs! Very interested.
Amazon has the 16” m3 max system for $3250 (200 off) and I’m getting $1010 trade in for the M1 Pro MacBook Pro. Getting a better system buys you time later on upgrades.
Even as someone who does like, use and own apple products (iPhone 14PM, 12.9 M1 iPad and M2 Pro 16" MacBook so not being bias) the Studio Display is a Scam, 2024 60hz no HDR support (although decent 600nits) LCD with LED Backlit not even Mini LED Like the MacBook Pro's. For the money there's significantly bigger and better Monitors that are OLED and MiniLED and high refresh rate.If you still can, I'd send it back.
I have a Studio Display and I love it, it looks amazing, the speakers are really good, and I can connect it via a single cable to my MacBook Pro and have an entire desk setup (keyboard, mouse, and networking attached via USB-C on the back). It's pricey, pricier than I'd like, but if you want a 5K display there really aren't very many options.
these are very good points and was definitely what I was thinking as well. But I will make a separate video about the studio display and my final thoughts coming up that will address all of that!
While a high refresh rate would be really nice, for what most people will use these displays for it's not an issue. You can edit photos and videos, code, browse the web, etc just fine with a 60Hz display. If you wanna game this isn't the display for you, heck macOS is probably not the platform for you either.
yea its kind of odd however, even if the display is 120hz, most apple laptops cannot export 120hz unless its over HDMI and well... the apple studio display doesn't have an HDMI port.
I am 76 years old and still using a late 2013 Intel MacBook with 16 GB of memory and 1T of storage. And it still works fine. I use it for a lot of things, the most heavy duty app being Logic Pro. But I can't get anymore updates so I have to get a new MacBook, I fully realize that and it will be the 16 inch Pro with the M3 Max chip with 36 or 48 GB of memory and 2 Ts of storage.. I can well afford $4,000, but regardless, the rationale is if I get five to seven years out of it, that's less than $1,000 a year for something I use a lot, and I think a lot of people can afford that for a semi-desktop (or trans-portable) computer. I am going to purchase it with Apple credit at 0% interest over one year, and won't even notice the monthly charges for the one year, or perhaps I'll purchase it with my cash rewards Visa (I always have absolutely zero revolving credit debt) and get the points. When I purchased the machine I currently have eleven years ago it was pretty much the top of the line. I believe in "future-proofing" and that strategy has served me well for a lot of things. So, think about that. Penny wise, but pound foolish may be a factor here. Just sacrifice those expensive eat-out lunches and Nobucks beverages for a year. And then you will have something that is truly worthwhile without any regrets down the road.
Thank you! Appreciate it 😀 I used a program call NVIDIA GEForce Now. The program also has many playable PC-only games, no parallels required at all (Which is what I used in the past). Link: www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce-now/ Hope this helps! and have fun with maplestory haha
