One size does NOT fit all. So lets talk about it.

Great video! You touch some important points. The best i have seen so far about this topic. Thanks!

@TechGuyBeau 2 месяца назад

Glad it was helpful!

@kompassorpigo7600 Месяц назад

5:37 lol but you are using some app that "removes" the notch by thickening all the bezels. I've looked at both at the store. The bezel thickness is identical between the two.

@septiyanhariyanto Месяц назад

been migrated to 16" it's great, you will have more space for working. especially when you need an online meeting and at the same time you need to take a note or read the point for presentation. nice content by the way

@gefthetalkingmongoose Месяц назад

The 'lying on a sofa' test was genius - even as a creator this is probably how I spend most of my time with my Intel MacBook. Gonna pull the trigger on a 14" - thanks.

@TechGuyBeau Месяц назад

Yeah for sure. Not everyone needs a nice pretty “creator” desk setup. Most of us want to sloth on the couch. That’s my preferred way to exist

@spideywoods144 13 дней назад

me too. this probably swayed me sticking with the 14". I lay on my bed with my laptop pretty much exclusively at home.

@jimtipton8888 2 месяца назад

I've had both and prefer the 14" for its superior portability. Better in tight spaces like air travel or the 4 wheel office and for just packing around. At home I use a couple external monitors and use it in clam shell. If you have an iPad with usb-c you can tether the 2 and the iPad can be a second monitor. I've done that out of my home office with an 11" iPad Pro and it's a very nice solution vs the larger screen on the 16. Great comparison video.

Great comparison video. I wanted the 15” M2 Air since those are on sale but 13” M2 MacBook Pro was at an amazing deal that I couldn’t pass up. Best Buy has the 13” M2 MacBook Pro 24GB/1TB on sale for $1,299. The bigger screen would have been great but the specs at $1,299 is a must buy for all users. As you mentioned, when I need a bigger screen I’ll just connect to any desk monitor.

Hi Tech Guy Beau, thanks for such a practical video on suitable size of MBP. I have gone through tones of video on this topic but I was never sure what they wanted to say finally. The ergonomics associated with keyboard and the situation where we find ourselves using a laptop is very well demonstrated here. It helped me finalise the size for my new MBP. Thanks bro.😊

@gerald1964 2 месяца назад

1) I have been taking the commuter rail to my office. I tried using both a 15 inch 2018 MB Pro and a 13 inch HP Elitebook while riding on the train. It is necessary for both notebooks to be angled downward on my lap such that the edge of the top of the screen just rests on the back of the seat in front of me. This allows for the screen to be perpendicular to my line of sight. The seat in front of me angles towards me. In these scenarios, neither notebook is comfortable to use. 2) The distance from the front edge of the notebook to the keyboard is a definite ergonomic issue when the notebook is used on a desk. However, angling the notebook by about 10 degrees or so helps dramatically in this regard.

@tomphillips5513 Месяц назад

I have the 16" M2 Pro and I constantly find myself looking at 14" Pros. the screen real estate is nice on the 16", but it is so cumbersome and it really isn't a LAPtop because it is too big and heavy on the lap. On the plus side: the cooling is better when I am running a lot of code, Lightroom, the odd bit of gaming... so the performance is quite a bit better if you need to push it. If it wasn't for the performance requirements I have, I would go for the 14" everyday.

@adequatequality Месяц назад

For me, the 14" is really the sweet spot because most of my work is always done on my monitor with the laptop docked. But, if I ever need to do something on the laptop screen, I'll always use 1 window maximum. The 16" just adds extra heft and cost to something you probably also need to use docked with a monitor to get the full benefit from the more powerful CPU. Just my take.

@sammayster88 Месяц назад

The bezels are the exact same. Your 16" has some app that hides the bezel through software.

@Burbanana 2 месяца назад

Great video! Gotta love window management on MacOS lol. Magnet app works for this but it is not free. I still can't believe apple hasn't made their own snappy window manager so you can easily split windows. If Apple wasn't as limiting as it is today, I might have considered these new MB Pro's. Not to mention the constant anti-consumerism. Im still looking for a decent dev laptop thats not too heavy and has a decent screen size, being premium and all and that works with linux because I use both linux and windows. Any thoughts on the Yoga Slim 7 Gen 8 with 7840S?

@TechGuyBeau 2 месяца назад

@shulkz4565 2 месяца назад

As someone with both size MacBooks I prefer the small one for portability

@TechGuyBeau 2 месяца назад

14” had a lot of appeal. Because I’m video editing I prefer larger from a pure work standpoint, but I feel like many people don’t do video editing, so the typical “RU-vidr” or “creator” narrative is irrelevant

@shulkz4565 2 месяца назад

@@TechGuyBeau I agree if you’re doing a lot of editing the 16inch definitely the one to go.

@SecondBestArtMuseum День назад

I think this video showed me that the 14 is the way to go. For a $100 less than a 16inch with nearly identical specs, I can get 1TB of space where I’d need to give an additional $200 for that TB on a 16 inch. I usually use an external monitor for my art already, so a 14 should be fine. Thank you!!!

@maxena47 Месяц назад

I think for people that multi task more often. Instead of buying the 16 you can buy the 14 and iPad Pro 11 inch and use it as an external display while not compromising portability

@TechGuyBeau Месяц назад

Heck even a 14” plus an iPad Air or mini. The combo is nice

@Gambit33 2 месяца назад

Ever since I bought my very first laptop, a 17 inch Dell desktop replacement, I've never bought any laptop over 14 inches. Laptops are meant to be lightweight, comfortable to use, and portable. You don't want to be carrying a heavy brick around with you all day, everyday. Screen real estate, performance, etc. means nothing if you never want to bring it with you outside of your home and hate carrying it around. Unless of course, you need a machine that is both a laptop and desktop all-in-one. But I promise you'll regret it once it leaves your desk.

@CHURCHISAWESUM 21 день назад

Basically: the 16 is a desktop replacement for mac os people. The 14 inch is a normal laptop with normal laptop convenience and sacrifices.
