Thanks to Anker for sponsoring today's video! Check out their new MagGo accessories! ankerfast.club/3wgoIB4
In todays comparison video I'm going to pit 3 14 inch MacBook Pros against each other to see which is best and what differences there are between them. In this comparison we're comparing M1 Pro vs M1 Max, 16 vs 32gb of RAM for M1 Pro and M1 Max, 14 vs 16 GPU cores, 16 vs 24 core GPU, battery live M1 Pro vs M1 Max, thermal performance, etc! There's a lot to talk about with 3 good value MacBook Pros to compare, so let's find out what happens!

Note: The graphs incorrectly state the side tier MacBook has 32gb when it in fact has 16 as mentioned in the intro. Which configuration of MacBook Pro is best?

@damhnaicandadhoraidh7991 2 года назад

Hi, Luke. Would you consider testing the *Low Performance Mode* on the M1 Max 24 GPU core model to see if the battery life matches the cheaper models, but also get the benefit of being able to manually switching to "normal" M1 Max for better performance and 400GB/s bandwidth?

@tomw4637 2 года назад

The thing with battery life: If you run the same test for the same amount of time you’ll definitely decrease the battery on the more powerful one first. A proper test would be completing a number of tasks and seeing what the battery life is after completion. The higher performance will work twice as hard but finish in half the time

@kpbendeguz 2 года назад

The Cinebench test was about to measure CPU performance only, so the Max had no benefit from the more gpus, it still consumed more power for the same task.

@LarryGanz 2 года назад

I see people in the comments talking about a “battery safe mode“ or “low power mode“, and I would be curious to see what the battery life and performance is with the M1 max using this mode. If M1 max could match the lower binned models battery life, then it would be like having two computers in one. You could choose between performance or battery.

@michaelkaliski7651 2 года назад

The base model more closely aligns with what most people want from a laptop, decent performance but great battery life. The middle and high spec models seem to be more suited to people who really need a desktop but who are unable to set up a desktop system for some reason, restricted space, or constant travel, etc. The fact is, if only the base model was available, it would work fine for practically anyone. Stuff would just take a minute or two longer to process and that isn’t always a bad thing. Finally, lower temperatures translate into less electrical stress on components and more battery cycles. A pretty compelling case in favour of purchasing the base model, saving $900 and having a computer that will ultimately last longer.

I think you are spot on for choosing your config for the 14! I think I would personally go for the 16" Max, 24 core, 32 GB, 2 TB to replace my MacBook Pro and iMac for my specific use case. Still spendy, but consolidates everything in to a powerhouse that I can take from my desk to the dining room table.

@mikkoleivonen2905 2 года назад

Very helpful Luke. What is immeasurable is factoring in your needs 4 or 6 years from now. I can't be purchasing a new MBP every second year, so like a lot of folks here, some of us must 'predict' if we will get better and better, use more intensive processing and graphics, and be making projects that will grow in size .... 4 years from now. So buying 'for how I use my computer today' is fine if you are working in an 24-month upgrade cycle. In my case, I have to buy where the puck is going - out 5 years from now, which means I will overshoot the spec runway somewhat today and pony up for better version.

@polee2004 2 года назад

Thanks Luke, this video is very insightful! Looks like I will be getting the base model for its longer battery life!

@heliogenesi 2 года назад

Ok battery life is worse when the cores are under stress but how about regular use? That's what a lot people are wondering since you can live with plugging in more when doing heavy tasks like rendering or gaming, but if the battery life difference is not that big when using daily like browsing or lighter general work than the m1 max on the 14 will be much more acceptable.

@lukey333 2 года назад

@vishwasmattur2027 Год назад

As a developer, the $500 jump to the 10 core model seems a bit too much. I'm already paying $2000 for the base version, and spending 25% more for just slightly better performance, extra storage and fast charging doesn't seem reasonable to me. I can get a 500GB external SSD for $50 if I need the extra storage. If you're not a professional media editor, the base version is more than enough, imo

@jeromescott2113 2 года назад

Luke - great comparison! While I agree with the spec choice, I went with the 16” M1 Pro with 16GB of RAM and 1 TB hard drive. The $200 difference was worth it for me for a larger screen, better speakers and even less fan noise.

@arpamaj9 2 года назад

I just ordered my base model 14'', sending my 15'' 2015 finally on retirement. I do web programming and music production (and sometimes light video editing), and i have to say that the base model for me is more than enough. I can't wait to get my hands on it 🤓

@daroga 2 года назад

Ended up with a base model 14". My work hardly touches the binned CPU/GPU, but has all the benefits of the externals (coming from a 2018 13"). I've thought a lot about getting at 16", and if they offered the 8/14 CPU/GPU in that model I probably would have, but in the end I'd be mostly paying for a CPU/GPU bump that I would never noticeably use. Thanks for confirming that there is a (slight) battery difference between the 8/14 and the 10/16 M1 Pros. I had suspected that there might be, but neat to see that tested as I don't think I've seen that elsewhere.

@drsmith1988 2 года назад

Nice video. My workloads are fairly modest. I like the idea of the base 14” upgraded to the 1 TB SSD. Although, I think another way of looking at battery life would be how many videos you render or other workloads you get done on a battery charge. I suspect it would make the max look better. But, I suspect the higher temp is reducing efficiency of the M1 Max.

The cores draw some power regardless of activity, you also need to remember the Max has a faster bus as well which is drawing more power, plus the additional decoders etc... even if all those things aren't being used they will draw power. I went with the 16" model but the same configuration, wanted larger battery and screen... it also got me better thermals and better sound as well. If I had gotten the 14" I would choose the same one you did!

@fitch8363 2 года назад

Your testing and analysis has been a big help is sorting out the options. Thanks for that. I ordered the 16" M1 Pro with 32GB RAM, 1TB SSD. Screen real estate and battery life are important for what I do (Action/Thriller Fiction writing) which doesn't involve graphics or video editing but usually involves a lot of active desktops (I have 12 in use right now) full of reference data. I like to write in a lot of locations where there are no wall plugs so I leave home with everything I'll need already loaded into RAM (the iPhone hotspot allows unanticipated, though somewhat slow, searches). The 32GB was future proofing since I frequently run out of RAM on my 16GB 15" 2015 MBP. I plan to keep this one as my daily use machine for at least 5 years, preferably 7 years.

Interesting comparison. I wonder what impact adjusting the fan curve has on battery life overall, especially across a variety of workloads. I ended up with the middle config as well, though I could see a broad swath of users not benefiting from the bump over the base config. The move to Apple Silicon has really lifted the value proposition across base models. The Air-even two years later-still remains an incredible value in the laptop space.

@dougc84 2 года назад

I'm still incredibly happy I chose the 14" M1 Max with the 24-core GPU. Battery life is still insanely good (especially compared to my now-sold 2018 MBP) and a huge step up for general tasks, and equal, if not better, when running high-power workloads. But I use my Mac docked 95% of the time, so I'd rather have the little bit of added performance, especially after being bottlenecked by the base GPU my 2018 had. I've got a machine that will work for me for years to come with all the performance I'll ever need.

Once I found out how long it would take to get it, I decided just to place the order for what I thought I would want without all this kind of information. I decided on the M1 Max with 24 GPU cores (to save a little money) because I think added GPU performance could be useful for writing and testing custom Machine Learning code. I know the processor has a dedicated neural engine but I want all the GPU cores I can afford to play with in the future. Even if they aren't used by default, if the hardware is there I can probably find a way to use it with some custom software control.

I purchased the 16-inch version of the MacBook Pro you consider to be the best and the laptop you intend to use every day. I've been very pleased with mine. I haven't heard the fan come on once. It is definitely an improvement on my previous laptop - the Intel MacBook Pro 16-inch. The fan used to go on all the time.

I see that the “middle” MacBook that you show in the beginning of the video has 10 core CPU, 16 GPU, and 16 GB RAM, but in your charts, you are showing it with 32 go RAM, was that just a mistake or did I miss something?

@Ivan_1986 2 года назад

Also caught this straight away. I guess M1 Pro 10 / 16 has 32 GB, just like the 1M Max version. Or does it?:) Went for w 14” M1 Pro 10 / 16 / 32 GB myself with 4TB SSD. Should be an ultimate config for years years to come.

it was a mistake, and I recommend 10/16/16/1TB myself

@@m-stat9 I have both the 10/16 and 8/14 because i won it. Go with the 8/14. Much quieter, same noticeable speed, not meant to *strictly* game on to begin with at 16gb modern day, and i've run both the same exact creative suites, ms suite, hundreds of tabs. The 8/14 is all you need, and i'm in Cinema4D, Photoshop, After Effects, Firefox, Outlook, and Excel all day long simultaneously.

Really happy with my base 14 ", fantastic device!

@ianblakemore4681 2 года назад

Hmm! Very interesting Luke, I am in the process of deciding which 14" MacBook Pro to buy and this has been very helpful but what about the 16gb of unified memory? I am going to be using it for photo editing (probably with photoshop) and video editing, could the memory be best at 32gb?

@fastenal812 Год назад

@luke Miani. Thanks for the video and all your work! I just ordered the 10/16/16/1tb in space grey. 2 questions- in your opinion how long do you think the 16gb ram option will perform well until apps and OS just need more? 2- in your opinion what age is optimal to sale a MacBook Pro to get your moneys worth and upgrade? Thanks again!

@watchtheskies 2 года назад

Hi Luke you have given us conflicting stats on the middle Macbook? in the first section you say it has 16gb Ram and in your charts you show it as having 32gb Ram?

@TimoGoehner 2 года назад

Cool. You’ve chosen the exact same model that i ended up ordering for myself. Still waiting for mine to finally being delivered early next week. Can’t wait.

@TKGZONE 2 года назад

Can't decide between the base 14 or 16. Could you do a comparison between what you see like video editing views and split screen between the 2? Can you split screen on the 14 and still have a good experience?

@sl05bps 2 года назад

Great video! Do you think everything you said for the 14 inch will also ring true for the 16 inch?

@HearMeLearn 2 года назад

hey btw, what ended up happening to the frankenmac? I've seen like 2 videos in that series, and I know you eventually gave up but I don't know why. Couldn't end up getting the upgraded gpu to work or something right?

@barackputin6927 2 года назад

Use this in terminal function to monitor package power of the different chips. sudo powermetrics -i 200 | grep "Package Power" there is probably a cleaner way, but it's a start.

@Dornavver 2 года назад

Hey Luke! Why does someone miss out on fast charging when opting for a base model? You can choose a 96W charger for +20 money... Which should be a no-brainer when buying a laptop in this price class.

@luked3172 2 года назад

That's the one i'd go with, for sure. The extra cores just take up more power. It's an undeniable matter of wattage, the'll just use more. The extra battery life will have a better benefit for most people than a slight boost in performance.

What did you compare now? In your graphs the mid tier machine read 10/16/32GB and at the end you said you will be using the 10/16/16GB machine which one was it?

@Raveneffect1989 2 года назад

I've just gone for the middle model, though I went for 32GB of Ram to run Pro Tools at its optimal setting. My first computer purchase since 2014. Also opens up a lot of options for other creative software that I currently can't run.

My thoughts on the 16in Mac Pro. Keyboard feels good. Screen good. Good array of ports including 3 Thunderbolt/USB4. Starting Price here in the UK is £2399. OS is latest Monterey. I recommend buying from Amazon Prime on 5 monthly payments. Look for a Moshi case not yet available for 2021.

@abhinavrathour2412 2 года назад

A comparison between similar 16" M1 models would also me much appreciated.

@Larry77777 2 года назад

Hey Luke: Higher fan speeds cause lower battery times. That's one more reason why I love my (no fan no noise) M1 Air which far exceeds my performance requirements.
