    2021 MacBook Pro M1 Pro hitting 112C

    Hello everyone, I recently tried a new benchmark, a Python program that does matrix multiplication on big matrices, lasts about 2 minutes total, and I noticed that the 8-core M1 Pro was hitting 112C (saw 113 once). What's strange to me is that the cores were still at their max clock speed (2064...

    Got water under the screen of my MacBook Pro 14”

    Hey there! Today there was a big storm with rain I’ve never seen before. The streets were POOLS of water and there was a mini tornado reported. I was coming home from my classes and my MacBook Pro 14” M1 Pro was in my bag which is kind of water resistant. When I opened the bag, my MacBook...

    iPad How do the Liquid Retina XDR mini-LED displays of the M1 iPad Pro and MacBooks differ?

    Excuse the apparent fact that I'm not knowledgeable on this topic. I thought it'd be fair to expect the same viewing experience from the two devices, but they appear very different to me regarding how dark black areas get and bloom or reflectivity. Even while both screens are off, you can easily...

    Other iPhone 14 Pro price increase

    I just did the math and the Swedish price of Iphone 14 Pro increased by 14% and is now 42% more expensive than the same model in the US. VAT in Sweden amounts to 25%. I wonder how much the M2 Pro/Max MBP will cost. 😂

    Hey everyone, Just got a brand new MBP with Monterey preloaded. Roamed around the system a little bit and discovered some weird password in Keychain including many that seemed to be Bluetooth related... I have absolutely no idea what they are, bluetooth is always off and even if I tried...

    docking station charging and MacBook Pro

    If I plug in a docking station that provides power to my MacBook Pro and use it all day... won't this impact the batter of my MacBook? I mean once it's 100% changed should I remove the cable and plug it again once it needs charging or keep the cable plugged in all the time? I always thought...

    How reliable is the HDMI port?

    So, we got the ports back on the new MBPs and I've been happily using the HDMI port to hook my Mac to my TV and an external monitor. Until my friend told me he avoids using his HDMI port (he uses a hub instead) because on his old MacBook the port got loose after using it for a while and got...

    2021 MacBook Pro 14" Display Variation (2 Machines, 1 Display Warmer)

    Does anyone else have more than one MacBook Pro 14"? – how do the displays compare? My work provided me a new MacBook Pro 14" which I love – so much so that I also decided to separately purchase a MacBook Pro 14" for personal use (32gb!) but upon unboxing today, I discovered that the displays...

    Huge Issue With TouchID on 2021 MacBook Pro

    Well, this is embarrassing. I, Timm Kook, am having to post on a forum here about an issue with a 2021 MacBook Pro, 16", M1 Max chip. Here's the issue: When plugged into MagSafe, and I lock the screen or close the lid for more than about 5-10 mins and come back, I CANNOT use TouchID to unlock...

    I've ordered the new 14" MacBook Pro which is coming tomorrow (to replace my mid-2014 MBP which is on its way out) but am now debating whether to keep it or not, it's from a store where you can't try it before returning.

    XDR Tuner: adjust your display white point and gamma and keep peak HDR luminance

    Hi! I just wrote a tool in order to fix the bad white point on my 16.2" 2021 MacBook Pro. After checking in a shop I saw that there was noticeable inconsistency in factory calibration between units, leading to some displays being more red, more blue, or worse like mine with a depressing...

    MacBook Pro 16" 2021 impressions

    It's thicker than I expected! Feels huge compared to my 2015 15" or my 2019 15". The hardware design actually seems like a throwback to the original PowerBook G4 Titanium: You have the same, flat top edge on the screen and flat edges on main body. I had to do a double-take to make sure they...

    Low Power Mode

    Is there a Low-power mode shortcut or can I add a shortcut to the control center to toggle it on and off? Currently, it's under the battery on MacOS Monterey?
