My current setup is an IPad Air M2 and an IPhone 15 Pro. I’m quite new to the ecosystem apart 10 years since my 2014 MacBook Air died because of missing charger brick. I’m quite on the wrong spot when entering the ecosystem, most likely lack of research and buyer remorses of panic buys due to M2 being same as 10th gen (as a student). And the 15 Pro had issues of overheating when scrolling instagram which catches on battery anxiety. My next target was supposed to be getting the AirPods Pro 2 Gen, but I ditched out and waited for the this year Pro 3 Gen instead. Any suggestions on the AirPods?

I don't understand the hate for this model specifically when you praise the much worse 2016 model and the 2015. It's not as good as apple sillicon but surely it's the king of intel macbooks?
@zircoben13 күн бұрын
It’s because, unlike those older machines, a decent one of these 2019 16” models is the same price as a M1 MacBook, even one configured in 16GB of ram in some cases. The M1 uses a fraction of the power, it’s faster, and the dependability of it is far greater given the prevalent SSD failure of these 16” models. It doesn’t justify its expense.

And it has sat on my storage room in my house ever since. Biggest waste of money I ever spent. I intended to sell it on swappa but people hate this model so much I refused to sell it cheap. I’ll just let it sit I guess. Sad. And I love Apple.

The tasks also include basic Photoshop, InDesign, and some light architectural work in ArchiCAD. Is the Pro worth the additional weight and size, or does the M1’s efficiency and battery life make it a better choice?"

Still have it & use it for travel but not my on the plane or at the sofa. I have iPad for that. I keep it for its good old reliable when M1 was too new yet. It’s an Intel Mac & if you work in a multi OS & use Windows. But soon to be left behind on Win10 as it outdated. So if all you need is Mac OS, grab an M anything over M1. The 2019 i7-9980HK, dual GPU intel UHD 630 & Radeon 5600M, 64gb Ram & 2Tb is a workhorse in its day & kept some old M1 on its toes for a few months. Today, I think I can use a more travel portable M4.
