LOL true!

I guess they have a bet for how many people will buy it and to check it they landed it in the apple shop 😂

I actually would rather have the polishing cloth than so many of apples newer products lmao. I had an M1 13” that I returned for these new pros and the fingerprints that get on the screen are SO HARD to get rid of. Unless you use alcohol and cotton, they don’t go anywhere,

They are not joking. They are making big money.

So true hahaha

Marques actually gave the MBP a tacit recommendation in the comments section on his first video. “You’ll be fine m8” is what he said to someone who was wondering if this was an impulse buy that they would regret later.

So i've been using this for a week and here is my view ;)

@@iMaajid I think just on paper the new MBPs are really good so the answer to get one or not is clear

Exactly my thoughts. I came here to comment and saw that you already mentioned it.

That sounds like insight that can only come from someone who is getting hands on with the device already. Hope to see a MKBHD video about this very soon then!

Yeah the embargo ends on 25 for airpods and mac

Yup. Also info about how much pixels under notch. You can totally get it from keynote 😀

Lmao he definitely already has it . the embargo ends on 25tg

@@tanishkarnik8892 yeah, but it at least pretend you don’t have that kind of familiarity since you’re not supposed to talk about it😂🤣

You know that’s false right. Macs don’t have embargoes, even with the iPhone he only opened the box just a few days before the event so idk man don’t spread false info….

@@Mr.Mercury_ ... Yes... Yes they do. Embargo lifts Monday. 😉

@@Mr.Mercury_ the other comments pointing out their insight on things like the notch and mentioning how it sounds like commentary you'd only come by from using the device sound fairly convincing. It's also just a meme, but it generally is true that Marques gets products early, is it not? It's completely reasonable to assume that Marques has the new MacBooks and has been using them for a few days and he'll have a video out on the day of or the day after they become available to the public.

@@00SNIVY00 he will have a video tomorrow, the say of the embargo lifting. Why is he tired? Because he has tested and recorded like mad.

Yes, and later on also a menu bar.

I didn't notice it because I was punched in 🤣

I didn't notice until I saw this comment

Lol, I was surprised for a bit to see notch on horizontal mode too

Bro, literally the first thing I thought and immediately jumped to comments to see this.😂

Like the ones that came with the new iMacs? Hell yeah!

That is also detachable. I bought 3 chargers in 6 years just because the cable was destroyed

I didn't even notice they put it in until I read your comment LOL

Hahahahhaha I didn't notice it the first time 😂

Yh it also late so I didn't notice

Exactly, this guy is an idiot and Marques was just being polite.

Idk how old he is, but if he was in the uni at around 2016, that's when the USB-C chargers came. These can be detached from the charger brick :)

@@RiderInRed right, but not with MagSafe. MagSafe had widespread problems with the attached cable on both sides. Guess he was unlucky with USB-C.

@@RiderInRed we’re talking about MagSafe chargers not USB C

@@PanChod-ct7ou ah fair point. I thought he meant the previous chargers in general :)

It has ports

@@The_MEMEphis I done goofed, meant to say now that it's back to how it was before. I'll edit it but leave this reply.

@@lirfrank cool cool I kinda figured

Copium hits hard

Honestly since switching all my devices to USB C over the last few years, going from 4 to 3 Thunderbolt ports will take some getting used to but it's a small price to pay for all the other benefits. I don't care one way or the other about the touch bar, I've customized mine with 3rd party tools and made it useful for myself but it's not a necessity. I have the 16" i9 though, so I won't be needing to upgrade for a while.

Only Apple users would still be putting up with a computer that's nearly a decade old. No way it's pleasurable.

@@bradavon why? Because it still gets the job done?

@@bradavon You've never used a MacBook, have you?

@@bradavon These things fucking last forever. I’ve still got a couple laying around that get used regularly. The only thing that sucks is the old CPU but a decade later it’s still fine for documents and web browsing which is all it needs to be used for. Already can’t say the same for other PC laptops I’ve had from that era (even newer ones).

But there is no face id on the new macbooks

Can’t disagree

I'd see opening the lid as "pressing the button". When you open it, you expect it to unlock, as much as by pressing the TouchID button.

@@konrad7592 I mostly keep my MacBook opened ;)

Am maybe check behind you first then? lol! Like what's the difference between checking before you pull up you phone (or open your laptop lid or turn it on) or after it unlocks to that unlocked screen?? Also, if you didn't notice that someone was standing behind you or simply failed to check before you pulled up your phone or open your laptop lid, why would you suddenly remember to check or become aware of the that person 1-2 sec later when you swipe up to get into the phone?? Sorry, but your comment makes absolutely no sense. Especially not, since there's absolutely no sensitive info about you on your home screen. Well, unless you're dumb enough to have a photo of your bank balance or yourself naked as backdrop, lol! Also.. No, absolutely no, that's not why you get to the unlocked screen or whatever it's called. It's because Apple wants to condition you regarding how a smartphone should look, feel and operate. All to make you dislike the unfamiliar and weird feeling of unlocking an Android phone, after years of iPhone usage. You know, if you ever would get the idea, to maybe switch. Because if every iPhone model is like this, and you buy and use two or three in a row during a number of years without switching to Android, most people will be quite annoyed at least the first week or two at a minimum, when they try an Android after all those years of iPhone. And most won't try it for more than a half an hour in some store, before they decide. And thus, they are going to feel the most uncomfortable possible about the change and so, probably just buy another iPhone. Yes, Apple is one of the most sinister and worst when it comes to customer manipulation. You'd be surprised how fooled we all are on a daily. And obviously not just by Apple. But like I said, they are by far one of the absolute worst.

8k monitors still arent at a price that suits the consumer market but yea it's cool it exists

@@Hyunation understandably so though, most consumers aren’t gonna be using that anyways.

If you are Homo sapien you wont notice any difference at all between 4k and 8k, 8k is just dumb

@@a6am3mn0n Currently 8k is the only standardized resolution format that allows monitors with bigger sizes like 25-32inches to achieve a pixel density comparable to your phone, so when it comes to things like productivity its not too crazy. The idea is to not see pixels at all

KZfaq needs to support Dolby first

Yes! It makes much more of a difference on a bigger screen.

It’s not like the promotion will help much anywhere(a bit in battery life and general use), unless gaming was brought to macOS

@@siddharthagupta8528 Nahh for me it’s all about the user experience with those smooth animations / scrolling etc and as you said those battery gains for long study sessions.

@@asterisbampos5869 Yeah but imagine how amazing a specced out macbook m1 max would be for gaming ... solid gpu, great cpu, fast ram, unified architecture, promotion, and mini-led for more visual games ... all while being way thinner and quieter than most gaming laptops ... hopefully that could be achieved through Parallels

I find hdmi useful for multiple display use

Yeah or just one more USB C… at least they support hdmi2.1 👌 I like sd card slot but not hdmi when it takes a usb c port away !

I think they might get it in a new update. So an updated MB Air with the new design…

This clearly sounds like a pro use case to me. A conference room is part of an office and I suspect professionals work there, right? Pros should use pro devices, especially if they even express this from their brand name!

@@jpawlowski I don’t think the average office worker/manager/ spreadsheet wizard would make any meaningful concessions if they used a base model MacBook Air vs a base model 14“ Macbook Pro, aside from maybe storage and needing a 7-in-1 dongle for variety of ports.

*M1 PRO/M1 MAX

@@sammyjammy6647 Thanks for correcting the SOC for me.

There presumably won’t be a November event.

Exactly. Redcode is not a very efficient codec at all, BRAW is far more optimised

@Kevwe Patani And that would run like crazy on the M1 Max MacBook Pro.

I use Bartender 4 for the clean look, my bar would be cramped without it.

Hmmmm, might be the best explanation

But the menu bar isn’t black? Even in dark mode ots transparent and shows a bit of the wallpaper.

@@MrVoonix but when full screen all of it goes black to hide the notch like it’s a bezel

i have an air m1, i personally think that next generation of mac air might be able to get the m1 pro with upgrades. I recommend waiting.

The new mackbook pro looks super ugly though from the outside. Design is a bit off to me and can’t get a liking to it. If I’m honest…

@@shangrammohammad8453 I will choose functionality over appearance if i had to. Looks like Apple needs to do the same thing, as its very difficult to have both. But i believe that in person these MacBooks will be just fine, even the notch.

@@shangrammohammad8453 It doesn't look that ugly tbh, feels like a bit exaggerated.

@@shangrammohammad8453 I just don't like the notch. Sticks out like a sore thumb

They probably won't... Apple today wants to make nothing swappable, even in an iPhone you can't replace anything (on the 13 series). The M1 is also a way to not put swappable SSD/RAM: if it dies, it dies, no backup... No way to recover files contacting WD or Crucial (and Apple doesn't care about warranty unlike some other companies... Look at HP: they even let you to use other ram sticks and not loose warranty). Also today you can't use an external GPU and the biggest manufacturers of GPU are AMD and NVIDIA (that owns ARM). The M1 is great. But the way they've made it is to not make it repairable: a lot easy to produce (they just need to pay TSMC, costs more, but it's easier) and a lot easy to repair because you'll just say to the costumer "it died... Probably your fault because it's all soldered, so Noone can discover where the break is". Like I've said, great SOC, but poor repairability and modularity.

Crazy right?

I mean, 2016-2020 MacBooks *are* pretty future-proof in terms of port connectivity. They're just a pain if you use HDMI or SD cards semi-regularly.

it was pretty great for the time, just not enough thunderbolt ports. HDMI was pretty unnecessary imo

Oh I have been biding my time hoping for them to get over that post 2016 phase ever since it started.

isheeps in a nutshell.....

Getting your sd card stuck is also annoying lol

@@joeldiramon8538 it doesn't get stuck in the laptops that take the whole sd card

The way it can click in and out is better but the mechanism being moving parts can break over time so it’s technically better to have it sticking out

I just hope they don’t get issues with dirt as easily.

Macbook pro not a cheap whore just the tip

No it won’t. In full screen, black bars are added to mask the notch. These screens are a bit taller than 19:10 so that you gain screen estate in not full screen and you have 16:10 rectangular screen estate when in full screen.
