I have bought M2 Max ,96gb Ram, 1TB . I am a fulltime creative cloud user with animation and video editing. This machine is fast , i am very happy with previous adobe struggle in timeline .
I was debating about the same exact thing but then I went with the M2 Max and I didn’t even upgrade the RAM and it’s just great whatever I throw at it. Games, Blender…anything. The speakers are an understatement. This is my first Macbook ever and it literally blew my mind how amazing the sound quality is. I love this thing for sure and now I’m convinced that the M3 wouldn’t be a noticeable upgrade in my eyes because this is already so powerful (and I’m a techie guy I sadly always look at the newest and best lol)
I'm glad that you mentioned your experience with multi-tasking. My machine is the 2021 16" MBP w/ the M1 Pro Chip and 16GB of RAM. I usually run 4-5 programs, when I'm video editing and I definitely noticed a slowdown with my RAM configuration. Maybe 64GB is the sweet spot for multi-tasking? I'm looking to upgrade to a similar laptop, like yours, so I found your video very helpful. Thanks for sharing!
Just be careful with moisture, entering on to mainboard. When i was travelling around asia, i saw many M1 & M2 brought out for repairs. All moisture damaged with dust.
Hi Scoot. This is a great introduction video! I want to buy a new MacBook Pro with Apple Silicon inside. My old MacBook Pro 15 (2018) has been worked for over 5 years. The old one's performance, especially when I was using a external display, is very poor. But the Windows 10 PC which have the same hardware performs much more better in the fluency of system UI. So I am wondering the disfluency is due to macOS rather than hardware. Does M2 Max can solve the disfluency problem with single external 4K display?
Hey Scoot! Just looking for some opinions. I have been looking into buying a 14 inch laptop that lasts me a good time. I'm looking for something I can use for work/editing and (hopefully) gaming if I would study abroad for example. The laptops that has catched my eye are: Lenovo (Slim/) yoga pro 9i Asus zenbook pro 14 Macbook pro m1/m2. Both windows laptops has 4070 graphics card. I already have a windows pc at home, is it worth switching to macOS or go with a Windows laptop. Which one would you think would fit the best. (Overall) Thanks in advance!
Hello! I don't have any experience with Lenovo and I had a terrible experience with my ZenBook Pro so I think I'd recommend the Mac. I'm not sure about gaming on the Mac though as I am not a gamer but for anything else, I think it's an amazing laptop. 👍
