MacBook Pro 14” vs 16” MacBook Pro M1 - Which one? It's all about size! 

High quality content dude! Appreciate you sharing and keepin it real

Your recent videos are perfect timing for me (see below)... and the trilogy of books on your desk is awesome. Subscribed. I need to get a new Mac in short order and am leaning towards a 16" M1 Pro 16gb (entry-level) because I mostly use cloud-based storage these days, and the SD slot will provide some "onboard" storage upgrade down the road. If I get five years from it I will consider that a huge "win"

Great video. Thanks!

For travel., I retired my Macbook Pro 15(2018) and picked up a M1 Max Pro 14". it was a no brainer.

They have difference in performance but only slightly due to better thermals on the bigger 16in but this is important. Important is that the base MBP 14" in has the 8 core CPU and a 14 core GPU the bigger 16in has a 10 core CPU ans 16 core GPU. At this point the prices difference is 500$. But if you upgrade the 14in to the same spec of the 16 in the price difference is only 200$.

Love the videos bro keep them up!

after I saw your video I decide to buy 16" with the true reason and fit for me!! thx u

I was offered a second hand 14 and 16 inch m1 macbook pro 16 gb memory and 1 TB SSD for 1500$ and 1600$ and they look both like new really, no scratch at all ! I couldnt decide which one to keep and as they are both at such good price and state i kept them both … 😅 What do you think ? A bit crazy ? The 14 inch is more portable and i love the screen of the 16 inch !

Re: Budget? The 14” is only $200 less than the 16”. In perspective, how many years usage would you expect from the MacBook Pro, and how much do you already spend on internet, cabletv and data connection every month?

Thank you,I want a MacBook ,even if it is used , can there be any help?To get it.🙂 thank you my friend

great video!

I find the speakers also very important :)

I went with the 16"M1 Max 32 64 GB 4 TB. The laptop is a beast handles everything I throw at it. This is the best Apple product I have ever bought. Love the space love the screen real estate and with these kind of specs I'm set for a good 10 years or more. The sound is awesome.

it was super helpful when you actually laid the 13 and 15 inch laptops on top at the end of the video. The comparison makes sense now visually

I went for the 16' M1 PRO for the screen and BADASS Speakers. For my backup I went for the M2 Air (Midnight) . Best combo in my opinion.

These macbooks better than the new m2?

I think someone who is upgrading to the M1 Max chip should strong consider getting the 16" MacBook. At that level the thermal and battery limitations of the smaller model have a larger effect.

Thermal performance and battery life are the two main things that make me want the base model 16” rather then the 14”. Only problem is I’m worried about the size difference since I am a college student.

The silver looks slick

how is the ms office experience?? Apple told me there is home and students lifetime plan for an amount ,if I install it will I get same experience as in a windows?? Cuz my academics is solely based on seminars, PowerPoint ms words etc??

Thanks… I‘m still not sure… I have a older 15“ MBP and it was after a while pain for me to carry around in my backpack… 3 lenses, drone, tripod, R5 camera and batteries… I travel since I shoot landscapes. After some hours walking around with all this stuff, a little bit of weight can make a huge difference. But the bigger screen is nice to have, at the other side. I‘m to 75% sure I‘ll get the 14“ this time.

Im going to buy mbp m1pro but i don't know how much RAM i need I would probably use it more than 3 years And i want to edit video with it im not a pro in editing Which do you think i should buy?16or32?

What is the name of that mic arm? Looks pretty good quality.

QUESTION: Except for the larger size, are the screens of the 14- and 16-inch Macbook Pros really of completely superior visual quality compared to the screens of the Macbook Air M1 and M2 ?

Should someone go 32 gb ram 4 tb ssd or 64 gb ram and 2 tb ssd for FCP and Logic Pro how would you decide?

Pricewise it isn't a huge difference just about $200 for the same spec 10 core CPU and 16 core GPU. When paying more then 2 Grand on a Laptop this shouldn't be a reason to put of the larger model if you want it.

I have 14 and thinking to upgrade for 16 just for bigger screen. Do you think it is worth to pay for like 700 usd (from selling my old 14 to buy new 16) just for its larger screen?

Why only 554 subs? Jesus the quality of these videos!!!!

Thanks for the review. Im going to buy the 14 inch for portability.

Just bought a MBP 14 MAX 32GPU with 64GB Ram 2TB SSD. Coming from 2018 15 top spec MBP and prior to that a 2011 17 inch MBP, I must say that the 14 MBP is indeed a powerhouse. It blows my mind that a machine like this exists. I'm still in my grace period with Apple and although I love this machine, I'm seriously considering the 16inch fully maxed with a 8TB SSD. I'm a music producer and also shoot video music videos as well. I am over having external drives hanging off the machine etc. A laptop should be totally self contained as far as I'm concerned. Also the internal SSDs are as fast as the intel MBP ram from a few years ago let alone the current ram chips in these machines today. Yes it's pricey and it hurts 😢 but I don't want to go through this for at least another 5 years. It enhances my work flow and that's what it's all about, for me anyway. Thermals on the 14 MBP do concern me though, and it does minutely shorten the life of the product over time, slightly decreases its performance, not drastically although they won't tell you that. Even Apple can't defy physics and trying to mitigate heat with higher fan speeds (and more fan noise) can only achieve so much. The 16 M1 models are better at staying cool organically in addition to having larger fans and cooling architecture and will perform better and last longer when pushed to their limits for that matter! This has been the hardest laptop buying decision due to all the variations available which is a great thing. I really wanted yo give the 14 a go and don't get me wrong I love it for what it is, but the screen size is beginning to prove to small for me and I noticed the screen hinges and track pad don't feel as premium as the 16 MBP. The battery is pretty good and a real noticeable improvement over the Intel model 15 MBP and yes it is almost silent all the time, awesome. There really isn't a best model for everything and you just have to take all your wants, needs and affordability into consideration. Future proofing is also well worth considering hence a higher ram spec and larger SSD are highly suggested. IMHO the sweet spot would be the 10C MBP 14 or 16 M1 Pro chip models with 32GB RAM and 1 or 2TB SSD. That would be for me the absolute minimum IMO and will still be a very viable machine for the majority of folk and for many years to come. I've noticed so many people are selling their 8C 16gb 512SSD models on ebay, marketplace etc..hmmm. Go the extra mile if you can, you'll be glad you did. All in all, the portability factor never really bothered me with the larger MBP's it's just that the 14 is so cute and formidable at the same time but I am so used to a larger screen and need and want the most internal storage I can get. If I travelled more I would stick with the 14 though. The 14 MBP is a great lil beast and it kinda breaks my heart 💔 saying this, but I think I'm going to go for the 16 inch MBP as mentioned. It just will suit my particular requirements and also just feels more like home to me. PS: Buy for the long term 🙏 Peace ✌️

I don't do video editor or photos , I am regular consumer ,RU-vid Netflix , email , I ended buy the MacBook Pro 16 only for screen side , my MacBook Air 2018 was to small for me , I am 6.3 big guy , if apple came with MacBook air 16 inch will be awesome

Which one do you find easier to type on? Most of my usage will be typing (I'm a translator) and I find Macbook keyboard convenient, but I'm not sure about the lower bezel in MBP 16. Actually, I bought the bigger one and it's still boxed, waiting for my final decision.

Nice

M1 16” MBP is the best laptop ever created! Its super light, compact, best screen. I’m so happy i went for it over the 14” which is too small imo.

Strange colouring on your video; overall good content.

Oh my favourite pasta!

Which of the 2 macbooks do you find yourself using more?

I have the 16 but I feel like it's so heavy. Carrying it up and down my house (we have 2 floors) is actually starting to annoy me due to its heavy weight. BUT big thing is I absolutely love watching content on the 16 inch screen. I am so confused if I should return and get 14 or keep :( ALSO BIG CAVEAT is fonts are SO SMALL on 16 and unlike windows, Mac doesn't allow just font size change and I have to lower the resolution which makes it look horrible

I guess most of the people complaining about weight have weak arms and are young. The 2007 MBP15 was thicker and heavier yet it worked fine.

So far, there is only macBook Pro 16 M1 pro, which can support ultra wide monitor. it is the best laptop, no question.!

It’s only $200 more for a maxed out 16” M1 Max over a 14”. No brainer

if you're planning on buying the 16inch be aware that it doesn't fit in most 15inch bags. I found out the hard way.

How does 16" for a student who types a lot ?? Does 16" feel so heavy?? It's just 2.1 kg?? Some people call 2.2 kg Alienware laptop as portable but 2.1 16" as heavy?? Does this feel so heavy in bag???
