Waiting for 2021 MBP

I still got my 2013 rMBP so I'm gonna carry that around all day tomorrow before I get mine on Tuesday (🤞). That way the new Busbook Pro won't feel so different! Only problem is that I've been using a base MBA for the past year so in terms of size I'm gonna be crying, but any frustrations with large video and picture file sizes gonna be a thing of a past! Plus all that glorious screen real estate again! It'll be like having my old 17" rise from the ashes!
I am also having 2013 rMBP and preparing for the new 16' mbp.
I wonder all these differences on the new machine,
will affect my whole operation with the mbp.
The Dave2D review and that by TomsGuide are pretty decent. Not too hyping. Basically confirms everything we expected: they go fast and break some speed records in benchmarks. In real life, they compete with high end gaming laptops. All the while, they stay cool and silent. Pretty much what I signed up for.
Now, can I charge it with my old MagSafe adaptor from 2013?

Dave2D's review showed the 16" M1 MAX compiling xcode like 27% faster than the 14" M1 Pro.
I'm curious if that's the MAX vs Pro advantage or more about the chassis cooling. Guessing it's mostly the chip.
EDIT: Missed that it was the 8-core vs the 10-core version. Also, an anandtech review has shown that the cpu cores alone seem to max about memory bandwidth around 100GB/s, so seems unlikely that the 400GB/s vs. 200GB/s memory bandwidth will matter to non-gaming performance.

I'd wait a bit longer for the non-influencer type reviews, but I agree, Dave2D's review was quite good and actually showed some numbers etc.
He's got the 8 core Pro, so I would definitely expect it to be slower.

Watching this YouTuber almost made me nauseous.
iJ is OG. One of the originals. Yes, she is too happy all the time. But, she's one of the originals.
I wish Apple had provided an option with more CPU cores rather than more GPU cores.
For those of us who write or run multi-threaded apps that don't use the GPU. My example is ray tracing, but there are others.
Which software? Also curious if you've contacted the devs to see how their software will perform on this new architecture.
I am so stupidly excited for mine to arrive in a few weeks and I feel like I need to tell people who understand.. that is all ?
She gets excited easily, but that’s because she’s a genuine Apple aficionado. There’s nothing wrong with that.
She's a one-note bag of banal. Immediately skippable if one is searching for serious discussion.
Mine is now preparing to ship and my original delivery window is 5-10 nov! 16” custom config M1 pro.
I have ordered mine, 14” 10-16 32GB 1TB, this last Saturday and it says it will arrive between December 2nd and 7th ? it is going to be a long wait but well, hopefully the date will move some days earlier
Except halfway through her video she brings a fellow pro filmmaker and they show real world test cases with both a maxed out 16 and a base 14 editing 8K footage in real time and throwing the images over to a pro XDR. So about as serious as you can get, it just happens to be cheery.
People love to trash her, but the truth is she's more pro than 99% of the people on these forums.
Her guests should have 100% of her show then.
Then it would be 100% serious.
and I don't love to trash her, she's just like eating cookies for breakfast lunch, and dinner. too sugary for me.
if you like sugar-coated shows. Go for it. keep watching her.
Just leave the serious stuff to other Vlogers.

Ah ok. Don’t think anyone here can answer that question.
What’s with the gate keeping? You don’t like it, don’t watch, plenty of other YouTubers.
I don’t own a gate. Quit projecting.
?Projecting what? You’re sitting here saying who should and shouldn’t make content. GTFO.
I can’t GTFO out. I have no gate. Like i said before!!
