MacBook Pro 16-inch M1 Pro

It’s amazing how far Apple has moved me down the chip line. I started using Macs on a Power Mac G5 dual 1.8Ghz in 2004. At the time? That was just sort of expected if you were serious about photo or video. That G5 became a Core2Duo 24” iMac around 2008, which led to a 27” i7 iMac around 2013 which b

5K 2019 iMac —> MacBook Pro M1 Pro + LG 5K Ultrafine 27” Then used 4K 32” at work and realised it was fine. Then moved and sold the 5K. Was planning to buy again or buy Studio Display. Bought LG 4K 27 Ultrafine to use with my MBP M3 Max as a placeholder for the first few weeks. Realised that I didn’

Kinda silly to be angry or aggressive over hardware. MacBooks are great machines, best in class honestly from a power and efficiency perspective. So are the Snapdragon based thinkpads. I love my AMD T14s Gen6, but it’s for specific purposes, and is inferior in every other way to my MacBook Pro. Outs

Yes, I replaced my M1 Pro 14” MacBook Pro with the Neo. It is along side a 13700K gaming pc/M4 mini setup and a windows laptop, but for my needs it really does everything I need. It really wasn’t a noticeable downgrade from the pro to Neo, besides the backlit keyboard and the speakers on the pro are

If you can stretch near €1500, I’d honestly look for a refurbished 14” MacBook Pro (M1 Pro, 16GB RAM) from https://ebay.us/Jpwgit (my affiliate link btw, helps me if you use it). It’s kind of the “safe buy” for Adobe apps right now. The screen alone (Liquid Retina XDR) makes a big difference for des

My 2015 MacBook Pro 15 actually weighs more than my M1 Pro 16. I bought a Lenovo Yoga 14 recently and that's what I use for traveling these days as I like the lower size and weight. So you might enjoy a 14 more for those reasons. If you are concerned about it, then you could request a MacBook Air 15

Your in America right? With the Memorial Day sales going I wouldn't hesitate at all for the Air you can buy a new M5 Air with 512GB instead of 256GB at that point as it's only $900 on Amazon right now https://www.amazon.com/Apple-2026-MacBook-13-inch-Laptop/dp/B0GR1493ZV or you can get it from Best

A Mac is generally the best option for graphic design and photography. Instructors will know the software, Apple displays are very accurate, and modern Macs have plenty of power. Most Apple Silicon (M series chip) Macs should be powerful enough. Avoid used Intel Macs. A used MacBook Pro would be my

I own a MacBook Air M1 16/512 since 2021. In that time it was my main machine for a few years. I used it to do some light 4K video editing with DaVinci Resolve, and it ran quite well. I had to drop the playback to half resolution for smooth playback, and I used an external hand-held fan to keep it c

Apple’s 6K display doesn’t have any higher pixel density than the original Retina MacBook Pro from 2012. On some older macOS, the text quality felt actually bit better if you disabled font smoothing on lower ppi displays. And at least with M1 Pro, everything looks pretty decent on 25” 1440p and 43”
