Hello,
I own a 2015 MacBook Pro 15 and intend to purchase a new Mac (or two). I'm an entrepreneur with a focus on technology and investing. I do a lot of web, mobile, and desktop programming, as well as a lot of investing. When I'm not programming or at a meeting, I'm mostly looking at graphs...
A man buying an M1 Mac asked
“Which Apple to get for my lap?
Is the Max not for pros?
Are the Pros not the max?
Boy, this naming scheme’s wack!”
The salesman said back, “Just relax;
Apple packed a whole lot in these Macs –
headphone jacks are high-load,
with mics better than Røde,
and they have...
Hello,
New to the forum any help would be appreciated. I just received my MacBook Pro M1 Max 14' today. I got the 1tb option but now I'm starting to feel like I should have gotten the 2tb option and would appreciate any perspectives. For context I will primarily be using this for two things...
I've seen a lot of posts comparing the size of the new 16.2" MacBook Pro to the old 17" Powerbook G4 1.67 Ghz. Here are a few photos for context to show you the size difference. Also, check out the sheer quantity of ports on that 17". I'm counts DVI, S-Video, Ethernet, Firewire 800, Firewire...
I have an Early 2015 Retina MBP 13" without the T2 Chip, thinking of updating to Monterey.
I know the update on MBPs with T2 chips have been a mess, but curious what the experience has been like on even older Macs that don't have the chip.
And even if it didn't brick, I'd love to know if it...
Let me just begin with the fact that this isn’t really a defect, but rather a limitation of the way these screens are designed so essentially all of these new macbooks will have it. The same ’issue’ can be seen on 12.9 iPad screens.
Im curious: Have you noticed the slight dimming around the...
I currently still have a 2014 (!) rMBP (15.4”) and have help off for years thanks to the crazy keyboard situation, then the tease of Apple custom chips, then M1 which was exciting but honestly stopped due to the same terrible webcam, among other little things.
With the new M1 Pros, I’m finally...
Hey, does anyone have an issue where a touch on the trackpad doesn't register the gesture, sometimes you might have to touch the second time to make it work, its not an all time issue but its noticeably present.
Give me a heads up if anyone facing this issue.
Working on a 16 inch MacBook Pro...
With the new MBPs, this question is super-popular on these forums, and I see multiple posts spreading misinformation and FUD about 16Gb models, causing a bunch of people to most likely overspend of panic about their purchases.
There is a lot of misunderstanding how RAM and swap files work and...
The long awaited 14 and 16 inch MacBook Pro’s are finally here and landing in people’s laps, as is tradition time to start up the wait for the next iteration I guess?
I’m not expecting a lot of people to be along for the wait to the successors of the M1 Pro and M1 Max MBPs, which may be good...
Hi,
I had a couple of questions about the ProMotion 120hz displays.
Can I force or ensure that the screen is 120hz (not adaptive)?
I need this because the MacBook isn't adaptively ramping up to 120hz yet when they should be (more like 80hz or so). so I need to wait for Apple to adjust it.
Is...
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?
As you know some displays have banding (pattern), dirty screen or color uniformity issueand some Pro Display XDR users suffered from this before. Has anyone detected these kind of issues on m1 pro/max 14 - 16 inches macbook pro?
Here is an example for this issue...
Has someone noticed some strange noises when gently touching, without actually pressing, certain keyboard keys on the new MBP 14" keyboard? On mine I have this strange noise on 50% of the keyboard's keys. On some of them it is more evident. It's not that easy to explain, it is as if the key has...
If I am not wrong both 14 and 16 inch displays have 10.000 mini LEDs. At this point; because of 16 inch has larger area, there are less number of leds per unit of area. For example 14 inch display has more mini LEDS in x cm square compared to 16 inch display.
At this point is it possible to...
I’m upgrading from a MacBook Pro 2016 256gb. It’s been ok so far, but I’ll be using my laptop more for school. I think the base model is good for me. Is upgrading to the 10-core CPU worth it?
I saw it’s only $180 to upgrade to the 10 core cpu. I was also planning on upgrading to the 96W USB-C...
I've got a 16" 2019 MacBook Pro with AMD Radeon Pro 5300M GPU. I've got it connected to the Samsung Neo G9 (5120 x 1440 resolution, 240 Hz) via a USB-C to HDMI cable (this one), but I am limited to 3840 x 1080 resolution. How can I achieve the full 5120 x 1440 resolution here? I don't care if...
Alright tech family, I’m requesting some help. I’m looking to upgrade an old MacBook Air to one of the new M1 Pro/Max. However, with all of the different configurations, I’m needing your help finding an appropriate and realistic configuration for my needs. (I’ve been out of the country for a...
I'm currently using 2019 MacBook Pro 16" too, and wondering how many 2019 MBP 16" users are buying the new M1 Pro/Max MBP 16".
(I'd really like to get one, but am a little hesitant because 2019 MBP's used price dropped a lot after Apple released M1 Macs and the replacement cost is so high...)
