few hours back I was thinking about exchanging my one year old MBA M1 for M3 Macbook Pro and all of a sudden this video popped out from no where and removed my blindfold and slapped the heck out of me to wake to reality and now I love my M1 MBA even more. NO !! Im keepin mine. What an amazing, simple yet powerful laptop ❤❤❤❤❤❤ Thanks for saving me Brother ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I have a Acer Nitro 5 in which I do all my work, editing videos, writing and recording audio. I learned to use a DAW with garageband on a 2013 macbook air i don’t have anymore, and i hate the way all other DAWs work, except logic. I was thinking of buying a 2019 macbook pro, to swap from the nitro 5, and been considering buying this 2015 one for the USB A port, which is the most important for me, but then i’d stop using the nitro 5 for recording music and using only for editing videos. But knowing that some of them have dedicated graphics makes things much more interesting. It’s crazy i’m now considering ditching a 2016 laptop for a 2015 one
I have mine ( dual 12-core CPU, 48 GB RAM, NVMe SSD for Windows and Mac Os Monterrey and rx6600) for gaming. It cost me quite cheap. I can play almost any game I can think of on it, except for the ones that require AVX, but I've managed to get around that pretty well. Most of my games go to ultra details in 4k at 40-60 fps, which is enough for me. Surprisingly, I also started AC Valhalla, for which they released a patch, so it does not require AVX. Satisfaction for me.
Yeah the anti-repair-sh*t Apple is forcing on us is actually one of the biggest reasons I'm considering other brands in the future for all of my devices.
The fuck are you talking about, a bog standard USB C port can connect to all of those devices and infinitely more, it's vastly more versatile than an ExpressCard slot. And Apple were the first to move to USB-C exclusively for their laptops, mainly because they literally invented the spec and handed it to the USB Consortium who then took ten years to actually approve it.
2018 Mac Mini i5, 32GB of RAM, TB3 eGPU RX 570 XT. I think it performs better than an M1 Mac Mini. I also made the eGPU work on my 2012 Mac Mini quad i7 with good results, despite the Thunderbolt 1 bus. Some problems on a rMBP 2012 with dGPU, so if you're planning to use an eGPU, prefer Intel Macs without a dGPU.
Choose Apple Silicon. It's obvious. And the comparing GPU by using OpenCL,which Apple doesn't use and does not further improve is misleading at best. M1 Air will be much more powerful in video etc because of unified memory and dedicated video units. Intel machines have their days countered and only idiot would buy Intel 2019 Macbook pro these days. Those machines become unsellable on eBay the day Apple Silicon came out. Currently running M3 Pro MBP and even that M1 Air kicked the Intel's ass pretty much.
i’m confused about the “especially from the likes of apple” part, macbooks have basically what every other laptop manufacturer are putting on their devices. do you want a disc drive or something ??
M1 Macbook Air is the spiritual succesor to the 2012 Macbook Pros of the last decade! Excited to see these laptops still being used in 2030 for basic users!
I rook apart many of these for cleaning. Ingave the key caps a bath in demin water and a lab detergent called Mucasol. Then a bath in demin water and good time for drying. The caps look as new and you even get the nice slightly rough feeling back
I don't know of any Windows fan who will call someone an Apple sheep for supporting the M1 Mac. Apple clearly demonstrated the superiority of customized ARM chips in a laptop chassis.
My M1 Macbook pro is still going strong, I've had it since December 2020 and it still feels fresh, I still don't see myself upgrading for the foreseeable future
'"There will never be another Mac like the M1 MacBook Air." *delaminating screens, soldered ram, over-heats using a calculator* *hits pipe* "Okay bud." Face it, the M1 Air was never good. Not remotely.
Still rocking a Dell Latitude 5511 hackintoshed as a 2020 Macbook Pro on Sonoma. Good to see there's a couple of years left in the old Intel dog before I have to get a hyper un-upgradable M1.
@@montaguebarnabasltd You begin your short with "Only Macbooks from 2006 to 2011 have this port". So yes, that excludes all other laptops from other producers and include all Macbooks 2006-2011. Learn some set theory. (It is teached in the kindergarten.) Besides that even for Macbooks 2006-11 it is false, it is only true for Macbook Pro of that period, except the 13" models.
@@horeageorgian7766 nah, that’s flawed logic I’m afraid. Saying ‘all MacBooks from 2006-2011’ have the port would have communicated what you’re suggesting. Unrelated but ‘teached’..?
It was the first product to SHUT UP the PC gamer idiots who thought iOS devices have some sort of special cheat with Geekbench, and the ARM chips are in fact secretly 5-10x slower than x86 somehow.
Did I just watch a 10-minute long review of a 4 year old laptop that I’ve wasted days of my life on while studying it in 2020? Yes, yes I did. I have my final exam in 2 days btw, Uni is scary 🥲
had mine for 4 years battery is at 75% I'm ready to replace it and I genuinely don't see the need to upgrade I'm very happy with it and the new ones feel cheap somehow
I bought one recently. I feel it's a bit laggy. Not sure if it's because I'm used to my desktop, or ir it's because of the age (~5 years). Right now Im trying to reinstall the OS to check if it makes it more fluid. Do you know which OS version is better for this model?
