I have used the MacBook Pro 14” for a couple weeks now and I want to make a little review of it.
Long story short, it’s amazing.
It’s a 14” M1 Max MacBook Pro.
I’ve never had a computer this powerful.
I always got entry level computers, and for me going to max out the specs to get the most powerful portable Mac I could buy was a great stepping stone.
I might never do that again, who knows. But at this point in my career, I had the opportunity to invest money into a machine that will help me in the future to perform better at my job.
I also needed to spend money. If you have a business, in the modern western society you need to spend money otherwise you’ll basically send that money to the government in taxes. A 2000€ computer ends up costing 1000€, also considering you don’t pay VAT on that.
I’m prone to having buyer’s remorse any time I do a purchase, but this time I didn’t get any. This is an absolute beast of a machine.
I got the version with 10 core CPU and 32 code GPU and 64GB of RAM. This is going to last me a long time.
What do I like about it? The observations I’ll do are of course influenced by the 3 Macs I had in the recent past: a 2010 13” MBP, a 2018 13” MBA and a 2019 16” MBP.
- Much more portable and light than my old 2019 16” MBP. WAY more portable. I’ll take this thick Mac with me all the time.
- Thicker and heavier than the MBA, but also WAY more powerful.
- Reminds me of the 2010 MBP, a computer that lasted me 9 years with some RAM and SSD upgrades (in the good old days we could upgrade Mac laptops)
- Video editing is absolutely fantastic and super fast compared to my 2019 MBP.
- Doesn’t get hot at all, unlike my 2019 MBP and 2010 MBP. It stays super cool.
- The battery runs for oh so many hours. I can’t believe it. The 2019 MBP battery could last 3 hours max?
- I’ll take it with me a lot more compared to the 16”. It can fit in my backpack more easily, and won’t be a brick.
- For 90% of my activities, I’ll just notice more battery and less hotness coming from the keyboard. Which is already HUGE.
- But when video editing, that’s the main difference for me. As a “content creator” in the “creator economy” this machine is a competitive advantage. I don’t love doing video editing, so if the tools get in my way I get nervous. On the other hand if the tool makes things easy for me, I can work faster and happier.
