  4. Although 16 inch may seem huge it is not. I have an old 15 inch 2017 pro and the 13 inch one is easy to use and more comfortable to take around and use but too small to be honest, if I had to buy the new Mac it would be the 16 inch one.

  6. Good evening from New York City 10:20 p.m. Monday October 24th I like your page it's pretty cool I started following you where you at right now this is Tokyo China you live over there

  11. Heyo nice video! As you mentioned you were a 2015 Macbook user, was it the 15 inch one? I'll be switching from that to similarly the 16 inch Max, exactly the same as yours, what's the weight difference? Is it noticeable? Thanks!

  14. Nice video bro! I got the 16" M1 Pro MacBook Pro. Sometimes I miss my 13" MacBook Pro, just for the feeling of a portable device (an idea I really adore). But when it comes to actual performance and actually using it is a travel laptop, it's great for taking to places and working there. The battery life and the screen make it almost no compromise compared to working on my 24" external display, except for a less ideal viewing angle with the MacBook.

  15. Always when the organiser(s) ask "Do you have your pasport on hand?" i always have a mini panic attack just for the fear of losing it LMAO! M1 sounds like a laptop that takes away all the extra thought you might have when you work on your laptop (i.e Is this laptop able to handle x program? Does the playback run smoothly? etc etc.) Great video brother!

  19. I see no issues for myself with travelling if I actually got that MacBook. Mistakes I’ve made in the past is not getting the higher storage. SD card slot is a must lol

  20. Honestly. Next to my 2015 15” MacBook it isn’t much bigger. It should be no issues for travelling for me.
    That on battery performance is fire!
