    MPB 14 vs MPB 16

    After carefully reading the specs for M1 MAX and differences between the two models (14 & 16), I noticed only one thing which sets the both appart (aside from the obvious body size and less obvious battery life): High Power Mode (HPM). I was curious about how much power it would actually bring...

    Ditch Intel 16" MBP for new M1 MBA or MBP?

    I've owned a 2019 16" MBP for the better part of this year (i9 2.3GHz, 5500M, 16GB, 1TB) and frankly am seriously disappointed with this machine. I don't use this MBP for creative pro work, and it still gets super hot and noisy ♨️. My usage is mainly having 50-70 Chrome tabs open (with Chrome...

    Hi, 2 days ago I received my Pro Display XDR and I connected my MBP 16 to it, coming from a 2017 iMac. Yesterday, I took a quick look at battery health and it said 99% (the MBP is relatively new). This morning, I looked at it again and I see that it dropped to 97%. Is it really possible that...
