Brutally Honest Review -- M3 Max 16-Inch MacBook Pro (2023)!

Dude show the laptop, show the keyboard, show the screen from the homescreen. All you did was show side shots. Show us the whole damn product.

I agree with you completely. The middle ground of 64 gb of memory, 40 gpu,, 16 cpu, and a terabyte of storage is the sweet spot. That is what I ordered.

The MBP 16 has a lot of bulk but is hardly "heavy" given the horsepower it has.

The lovely sponsor block extension for safari and chrome removed 3 minutes of useless advertising in this video

Still can't find a video on how the M3max performs with machine learning and deep learning.

i can't enen buy a 2008 old macbook
i really want one but i don't kw why god made me so poor

MacBook Pro is the Biggest money waste facts

what external ssd is that?

Is somebody tell me how much is it

Why you saying brutally honest as if others don’t ? Such a shyte gas lighting. Comment

Since the m2 pro was already 1600 wait and especially don’t buy from apple

Do u review smart cases for AirPod max?

After using my razer blade 18 inch for a couple of days, I feel my 16 mbp small. 😀

Finally! After waiting all these years-space black🙄

Funny to hear you mention Age Of Empires : Last Boxing Day I bought a PC Laptop at over 50% off (roughly 650 USD equivalent), mostly for AOE, and other older PC games and stuff that I can't do on my Mac... To be fair I kind of like having a seperate place for them anyway...

can you post the wallpaper please

Amateur question, but since I’m going from a late 2019 Intel to the M3 Max, can I still charge the computer via the USB-C/lightning port? MagSafe is cool, and I’ll likely most often use it, but I have grown pretty fond of having a single cable in my bag that works across all my devices.

What about a M3 Max 14-inch MacBook Pro 14-inch?

I hear you, but I actually don't think it's easier to buy an M2 Mac. There are very few options on Apple Refurbished. Unless your needs match their specs exactly (because you can't spec the refurbished items exactly as you want) then the refurbished option isn't great. That leaves you w/ eBay, which seems even more risky IMO. So if you're talking about ease of purchase, it's much easier to just buy a new M3.

Yall, without your studio lighting it looks black. The only time I see grey and not just plain black is when I’m looking at it with a bright light shining directly onto the surface.

I’ll be brutally honest, I don’t like used sht, so I’m buying the new MBP Max in space black

How is the battery backup do we get more than for 6 hour's

Apple should be but isn’t ashamed of the prices for the ram and ssd upgrade prices.

It's all about the fingerprints, baby. Uhh, uh-huh, yeah.

I have a mid 2020 27 iMac that I use for video editing that sports the AMD Radeon Pro 5700 XT GPU. Which m2/m3 MacBook Pro model would give me a boost in render times without getting crazy expensive?

World of Warcraft is native to Apple Silicon. Depends on scenario and place it can stress single core, pixel fill rate or general GPU workload ;) Works well since M1 but > 8GB RAM for optimal performance.

Realistically though, most people use MacBook Pro for professional work (doctors, lawyers etc).....only a tiny minority do this kind of geeky stuff!

I think Apple’s Vision Pro line is gonna serve as a motivation for their silicon team to hit high graphics performance at brutally low power consumption, moving forward.

I still like my gateway 2000

If you love 8K monitors the new M3 Max will allow you to run four monitors rather than two like the M2 Max. I love my two 55" 8K monitors on my M2 Max. So much real estate.

Agree, Andrew. I just bought the 16 inch M1Max with 64GB RAM and 2TB SSD new (not refurb) at BH Photo for $2799. Winning!

It would be great if you can do a review / comparison of M3 Max Base model with 14 / 30 Cores with M1 Max… are they on same level ??

I’m sorry but this review was total waste of time. Somebody should have told me that the first half of the entire video would be telling me about smudges and cord color options. Then the actual performance metrics were ones you could get anywhere online. Finally the only first-hand info was around gaming performance!

AI should know the audience and who the prospective buyers are going to be. Who’s spending 4k+ for a mediocre gaming rig??? This should have been focused on professional users doing video work, high-end imagery, and perhaps some use-cases for 3D work.

4 grand….palatable?…you gotta be joking….

I want Asus scar 16 vs m3 MacBook pro , please compare
I want to which is faster ❤

yeah the size of th 14" vs 16" was the toughest choice for me, but you cant have everything, there are always trade offs.
This year I stuck with the m3 max 16" because the extra screen real estate does help with the work I do when I dont use an external monitor.
The 14" is really nice in terms of portability and convenience, but since Im spending over 3k on a laptop I want the screen to be usable for my case!

The price difference between the 14 and 16 is most of the cost of a 10th gen iPad. I got that and use sidecar… plus I still have an iPad to use.

Stupid color

What external drive is in the video?

Reviewing a MacBook Pro in relation to gaming doesn't quite make sense.

Baldurs Gate 3 is a big deal for Mac gaming. Actually a xxx game I want to play the next 10 years available on Mac:)

You can get vivid, and the brightness will be better no matter if its M1, M2, or M3

Did the cat sleep on your hat?

What about future proofing?

That 16" is too heavy!!!

I'm holding off for the M3 MacBook AIR 15" (in blue) !!!
