@Joel11111 2 года назад

Isn't the idea of "fanboyism" or "antifanboyism" sort of strange when you think about it? All these companies making computers make billions of dollars each year. Why should we invest our time and energy defending them relentlessly and trashing their competitors on their behalf? And why should we trash what brings other people enjoyment? These companies don't need it and it doesn't do us any good.

@gutzbin 2 года назад

@@Joel11111 It’s definitely not defending the company as much as it is defending your own personal bias and opinion. You chose an Apple product, you like what Apple does. Someone insulting the company insults your personal taste, choice and bias, so the natural impulse is to defend the company in a dire attempt to defend your opinion. This becomes even worse when you buy one of their products, then someone goes and gives factual evidence as to why other products are much stronger and better at the same price. You, trying to convince yourself that the product you bought is the best and that there is no way you made a mistake or overlooked a detail, defend the product you bought to the grave. However, people mistake “being a human being with an opinion” for fanboyism, and also mistake “giving actual evidence that something is better than another” as fanboysim For example, I saw a comment talking about how the new Macbook Pro is overpriced, pretending that the price of the 8TB model (7000 dollars) is the base price (the base price is 3500 dollars by the way), which is quite literally just lying to prove their own personal bias that Apple is Evil incorporated. Then, when people A- Called them out on it, or B- explained how the Macbook Pro is quite literally better than most notebooks/ultrabooks in their class with perfect explanations and reasoning as to why, they were completely ignored and called Apple fanboys. The internet sucks ass.

@svpracer98 2 года назад

Its where I can see both ends now that I've had positive experiences on both. Unfortunately for Apple, my daily needs don't fit in the package apple wants to ship.

@Joel11111 2 года назад

@@svpracer98 it’s a bit worrying that Apple is becoming more and more hyper-focused on shipping products that are catered towards “creative professionals”. They even built in parts of the chip dedicated to accelerating certain media-production workloads on the M1 pro and max. These are entire blocks of the chip that are forever going to sit idle for anyone who doesn’t do media production. It used to be that they focused mainly on this market just on the software side of things, but now you can see this focus hard-coded into their silicon. Which makes me wonder, “okay, but what about everyone else who just prefers MacOS over Windows, apple”? Not everyone is a photographer, video editor, or music producer. It’s a shame they don’t make an effort to branch out into more markets.

If you’re gonna do more gaming for the full review, please mention whether the game is running via Rosetta or metal. Rosetta is going to have an inherent performance hit, so I think it’s a useful frame of reference to have.

@freddiesen 2 года назад

Yup. Deus Ex (from what I can see) hasn’t been ported to M1.

@topethermohenes7658 2 года назад

Rosetta and metal are different categories. Rosetta is a translation for cpu while metal is an API. A game can be running rosetta (not native for cpu) while on metal API (for rendering) like the game tomb raider which runs exceptionally well compared to other AAA because of metal but it's still translated to arm via rosetta. At that point making it native would only give limited performance gain as tomb raider is not a cpu heavy game

Keep in mind that sometimes in you can get hiccups using rosetta that otherwise wouldn't be there. Like it runs it almost perfectly, but ever 15s the games wants to do something rosetta doesn't handle as well as you get a stutter. So while I agree that the end frame rate will have minor changes using rosetta or native. The feel of the game could have a huge impact and the feel of the game most certainly can translate into looking impressive or garbage in a video like this.

I thought a watt hour was the watts the battery could deliver in 1 hour at full speed energy delivery. So a 100 Wh battery could deliver 100 watts for the entirety of 1 hour. That battery would be able to power a 100 watt incandescent light bulb for 1 hour. Of course the laptop wouldn't suck 100 watts during 1 hour and that is why it is able to last for more than 1 hour. Please correct me if I am wrong.

@threepointonefour607 2 года назад

@@brianfong5711 right and a watt is one joule per second. So multiplying this by hrs to get Wh gives you a unit of energy. 1 Wh = 1 watt * 1 hr = 1 J/s * 3600 s = 3600 J

@mr_mean3r 2 года назад

@victorzimmer Год назад

Agreed, additionally its great when watching content in fullscreen with an application that refuses to hide the cursor.

@JohnFerrier 2 года назад

FYI, y'all messed the units up at 1:40. A Watt-hour is labeled as Wh, not W/h. Watts per hour would signify an acceleration in energy usage. Watt-hours is a unit of energy. In this case, how much energy can be stored in the battery. So, a 100Wh battery can put off 100W over 1 hour or it can put off 20W over 5 hours.

@helplmchoking 2 года назад

When it comes to the notch thing, I think it's pretty dumb overall but I do think it's better than the iPhone one. It should have had FaceID but what they've done here is extend the display up a little bit on either side of a notch - so you actually GAIN screen real estate by pushing the menu bar up, even if cutting chunks out of displays is kind of a clunky solution to shrinking bezels. The Iphone, however, has the notching cutting INTO the rest of the screen with the status bar being stretched to take up the space. Other phones have the display right to the edge, so it's much more of a negative impact than this (although more useful). Also, I'm pretty sure Apple has the system treat the display as though there is no notch for similar reasons Windows ignores the rounded corners - first, it means they don't need to do any software work and, particularly, there's no risk of needed multiple versions for displays with/without a notch (avoiding it would look super weird if your MacBook doesn't have one). Second, I feel like compatibility could be a factor, I don't know for sure but I suspect some apps wouldn't adapt to rounded corners or the notch properly - either they'd leave a gap across that whole top piece, shrink themselves to fit into the smaller rectangle of the rounded screen or maybe send important elements off the useable space - and again could mean needing extra code to handle the changing screens. It's dumb, but I can't really see a better implementation. But it NEEDS FaceID to justify its existence

Apple should start a new division that just ports and optimizes AAA games to M1 hardware.

@HeyItsHades 2 года назад

If there was demand I could see them working with game developers like they do with pro apps so that on launch many apps are already optimized for M1. However, almost nobody buys a Mac specially to game. This is like the chicken and egg problem. Game developers need gamers on the platform to justify optimizing games for Mac like they do with other platforms. But gamers need games to switch too MacOS. The Mac community, Apple, & game developers have all given up on the idea. Most of the community will even say things "if you want to game buy a PC, we do really work here" and Apple doesn't really care about "gamers" because the gaming community doesn't align with Apples values and decisions and game developers dont see a big enough incentive to spend time and money on the MacOS platform. Honestly, I use to be big into gaming, got a Mac for development. Hardly game anymore and I see myself falling into that attitude. If you want to game just buy a PC, dont bring the gaming community to Mac because their demands with just push Apple to ruin a great product. What gamers want hardly line up with what professionals want, performance is the only place they over lap & even then when professionals talk about performance they mean like the dedicated encoder and decoder on the chip for pro-res. Windows and gamers fit well together and I think it should stay that way.

@@85Portar Yeah you should NEVER lift a laptop by the screen. But for a lot of people that's less obvious, if they used a different material in the hinges it wouldn't as big of an issue. Basically all laptops use Magnesium which is incredibly brittle. I've only seen a couple of laptops in my entire career do it a different way and that means they don't break. Either way I'm more concerned about how little the screen is able to extend downward, it just causes them to break a lot. Probably the 2nd most common repair on Macbooks are the hinges. First would be a tie between the Magsafe connector and the charger fraying. Other weird issue that are Macbook specific is that their screws for one reason or another just fall out after a couple of years. I used to think that was just users opening them up but it's happened to me too.

Yeah, this is my first MacBook. It is unsettling to open it up fully, knowing a slip of the hand or a small accident would overextend it, and possibly cause some major damage. Does it just break the hinge? Or do the display panels also break sometimes?

Even if you are a windows fan and hate Apple/Mac if you see the performance difference of using openGL vs the Metal API you will be blown away and wish windows had an equal. As a c++ developer I still have no idea what they are doing with metal to get those kinds of performance boosts. It would also be cool to see the linux kernel release some API and software for game optimization. I still find it very funny that the platform most games are developed for is the one without any optimization done for games. But Apple kinda shot themselves in the foot years ago and to this day Apple/the Mac community and the gaming community dont really align well. Windows and the gaming community fit each other well.

I think Apple took the right approach to the software implementation of the notch. On a low level it's the only choice. GPUs can only render to rectangular textures. What they could have done is change the behaviour of the cursor. Either it could get stuck in the corners between the top bezel in the notch, which would be really horrible or moving it to the side would actually move it around the notch, which because of the longer way would mess up people's muscle memory about the sensitivity of the cursor and is just endlessly complicated. They should fix the hidden menubar items though.

@@SianaGearz see, I don't have a USB SD card reader lying around, and I don't know anyone that does - maybe someone like a pro photographer would have a bunch of them (or someone that's been living in Apple's port-less ecosystem for years), but an average Joe probably won't. I do have some old USB 1.0 pendrive-like MicroSD reader, but that wouldn't help me with the full size SD card I needed to access recently. A 'Pro' designation, or Pro Max even, should indicate that a professional can use it out-of-the-box, and that would be hard to do with the last year's 2-thunderbolt Mbooks - you can't even plug in a normal USB-A pendrive to them, and that's a common real world use case (something I do a few times a week at work). This year's models are a definite improvement in that regard, and everyone's been raving about the reintroduction of ports in the reviews. Finally a product I can recommend.

The 16in is amazing only gripe I have is the battery life is horrendously misquoted but honestly that’s something I think everyone is used to

I'm actually sad about the lack of Touch Bar, it was SOOO great for quick auto-correct and spelling suggestions. Also every now and then it was helpful in Final Cut or for muting/scrubbing music in another tab

I know it'll make a small difference but I wonder if rather than doing a on device screen recording you did a capture on another device through the hdmi if it'd help in the combat moments? From what I know/remember doing mirrored windows doesn't take up much if at all power where QuickTime or OBS might be

@kaukospots 2 года назад

Mirroring the display is always going to be better because it just reads from the same framebuffer

For a MacBook Pro running a demanding game on such a high resolution the performance is great. Just remember this is an ARM chip using a translation layer for x86_64 to play this game. For me this shows off less about the hardware and more about how amazing Apple's Rosetta 2 translator is!

@@gasternecross well the m1 max cant run MOST 80% of windows games. A phone can emulate a game better than a mac because macs aren't power and optimised enough for serious gaming. Thats why macs get around 5 fps or dont launch at all meanwhile pc gets more than 400 fps

1:35 The notation for Watt hours is Wh, not W/h. This would mean Watts per hour, which is the change of Watts over time aka some sort of acceleration in energy provision. This doesn't make sense for batteries.

I've been using Macbooks for years and never once while using it have I thought to myself "Hey, it would be really nice if I had a touch screen right now." Scrolling/pinching/swiping with a few fingers on the trackpad (or scrolling with a mouse wheel) takes much less effort.
