14" VS 16" Macbook Pro - Which M1 Max Should You Buy As A Creator?

[@mattih]

Which would you get and why???? ughhhh they are both so good haha 🙌🏻

[@MigueTran]

16 inches because that computer just deserves to be used at its max capacity.

[@jimmyhamelin]

If you can afford an external monitor, get the 14 inches maxed out. You get a much better portability and no performance loss. Fan noise is not bad and is never annoying like it used too… it is the BEST INVESTMENT I ever made … gear wise. :)

[@FloNFC]

I got the 16". Even when I travel feels ok.

[@nathanbieri7060]

Probably would still go with the 16" just because more screen space is always better for me personally.

[@DavidGrossman82]

i would have to say that i have fallen in love with my pc. i have a buypower desktop with the msi GEFORCE RTX. built for gaming but serves me very well for videos and never bogs down on me. But if it ever does, i think i would have to go with the 14 inch because I know for sure it would fit in my camera bag.

[@pressrepeat2000]

Unless you’re a student or travel every day (and thus need to carry it around with you all the time), get the 16”. You spend so much more time looking at your screen than carrying it around, as someone pointed out below, and the screen real estate makes a huge difference. Now if you need to carry it around every single day several times, such as during a long crowded commute or running between classes, then get the 14”.

[@gregoirepainchaud]

Something not pointed out here is that the 14" will sometimes (under heavy loads) thermal throttle after a few minutes and the 16" will absolutely plow through everything at the absolute max performance for as long as you need it to. The air flow is better in the 16", bigger fans too...

[@psycrow.]

also sound is way better too!!!!

[@LittleMountainLife]

EXACTLY traveling and being on the go is definitely easier with the 14" form factor. Love my 14" Max for video editing!

[@bassereric]

@@LittleMountainLife this is the same spec I am considering right now (with 1T ssd). Do you use Adobe software? Especially After Effects. How’s the thermal doing? Do you experience thermal throttling under sustain load?

[@bassereric]

@@LittleMountainLife cool! I am definitely switching to Apple software with the new Mac. But I can see myself using Adobe from time to time for collaboration with Adobe users. Thanks for the reply!

[@RomanTchekashov]

Thank for review! I'm a software developer and like to travel but for my work I prefer larger screen. I think it's better to have just one laptop were all your work and travel with it. Most of my time I work on laptop without additional monitor because I switch locations. Extra 2'' inches gives me more comfortable work experience and it worth it because I spend much more time working comparing to carring it.

[@hailstorm7868]

Late, but I use 34 inch monitor with a macbook 14 base model. Not even external peripherals, just monitor on an arm and laptop centered below it. Works great, especially if you need to switch between 3 laptops as I do (my mac, work mac, gaming asus)

[@BradlyFC]

I've had the 14" for almost a week now and I've been editing on Davinci Resolve Studio and I am so shocked at this laptop. I've been a Windows and Samsung guy for about a decade now but the latest iPhone 13, Apple Watch and MacBooks made me switch. I honestly can't even fathom how Apple put this much power, efficiency and battery life in such a small form factor. I'm not even joking, I literally cannot understand how. All of that without ever heating up, throttling (while on battery mind you) or kicking fans on. I can easily edit a 10-15 minute 4k vlog on this without even being plugged in. Just set the laptop on my lap while I'm in bed and go to town. I still have my desktop because I also like to game and there are way more options on Windows for that, but I haven't touched my PC in the week I've had my Macbook lol. Hats off to Apple and hats off to YOU Matti, how you edit with trackpad will forever be a mystery to me 😂.

[@BradlyFC]

@Step bro I was on the S10+ before I got the 13 mini. There's still soooooo much that I miss about my Samsungs and just Android in general, but it's just little stuff really. No type-c isn't a deal breaker for me since I rarely used it anyways, I always use wireless charging (and now magsafe for everything). One thing that annoys me about the Macbooks though is, sure, they have a lot of ports again, but WHYYYYYYY did they not at least put ONE type-a port 😭😭😭😭😭.

[@ilvinai5561]

You have no issues with the portability?

[@ZayasRaymond1]

If you do all your editing on your MBP I recommend the 16”. I’ve had the 14” MBP since launch. It’s an amazing, portable machine but I missed the extra screen real estate from my old 15.6” intel MBP. I recently made the jump to the 16” and it’s perfect, definitely a more comfortable experience.

[@alexv8203]

I’m the context of video editing, would you go for 10core cpu, 16 core gpu, 512 gb ssd 16 inch mbp or a 14 inch same specs but 1tb ssd?

[@pf4773]

@@alexv8203 well, since your question is a year old sorry that folks here did not respond sooner. For those who are looking at the end of 2024 the answer is so obvious, based upon lots of experience---1 tb is the absolute minimum in ssd storage for photo storage/editing, and especially, video editing.

[@marksallotmentplot]

I’ve got the 16” version and have to admit it’s a pretty hefty bit of kit. I do most of my work at home on it and agree for travelling 14” is the way to go

[@zoltanzana]

There is absolutely no issue with the portability factor, whether it's on the plane or when I carry it in my backpack. Only if you're a small child or have a physical disability, half a kilo might pose a problem

[@CarEnthused]

The other thing worth noting is that the 16" M1 Pro is going to offer the absolute best battery life. So if you don't need Max performance (and most of us honestly don't), that could be a good consideration

[@MrFL08]

Yes but I like to know it’s there, and to pay for it, and never use the power 🤷‍♂️

[@CarEnthused]

@@MrFL08 I’m usually this way but I think after seeing how good the M1 Pro is and knowing I’ll keep upgrading every 2 years I may optimize for battery this time

[@0nceuponatime486]

This whole video could be summed up in 30 seconds. 16" if you need the screen size and it's your only computer/monitor 14" if you want to actually use it a lot on the go because the 16" is a little on the big size

[@darrengodssonfielding]

I just ordered the 16" top spec. An investment for years to come. Gonna be using it for my photography/videography and editing suite for my wife's youtube channel.

[@NakedWanderings]

I got the 13" because it's just easier for traveling. It's not perfect for editing, but it works. It's crazy fast and the battery lasts forever. The big downside is that it charges with a regular USB-C port instead of the magnetic port.

[@NakedWanderings]

[@thevinceedward]

I ended up bailing on the 16” when I became aware of the size difference over my 2016 MBP. There’s no way around it - these are thicker and heavier than Apple’s recent offerings. Since I don’t do much work requiring significant screen real estate on the go I decided I was better off with the portability and plugging into my monitor at home. The 16” wouldn’t fit comfortably in any of my existing bags. It does feel pretty incredible to have the power this has in the 14” form factor.

[@Shutterandvoyages]

[@jeffsancricca7041]

14” with 24 core M1max 32Gb is what I ordered on the day Apple launched it. Thermal throttling is minimal. Smaller overall footprint with a lot of power. Best bang for the buck IMO. Unfortunately it takes a couple of months to get one now. I’m just waiting for the software to catch up to the hardware.

[@sierrafrancesca5578]

[@TuckerPearce]

This was great Matti! At first I thought you were telling us which one we should buy and like you said it’s so subjective. I’m blown away that the 14” vs 16” price point is so close, it’s as if Apple doesn’t care which one you get just buy one. I grabbed the 14” and I’m loving it. I’d seen the trackpad of the two at Best Buy while waiting a month for mine to be delivered. I was worried I’d made the wrong choice but it’s the perfect size for me. At home I have a 34” Samsung monitor which is nice for editing. Thanks again for your thoughts.

I might say the opposite - if you travel maybe better to take the 16 for the screen real estate for editing : )

[@donnik7064]

My girlfriend bought an M1 Max Pro and I edited several weeks with DaVinci Resolve. It was amazing compared to my old Windows PC. So much more Power and so quiet. Hard to believe. Then my new Windows PC arrived... After a few weeks I switched completely to my Desktop PC. Ok it is not a fair comparison between Laptop and Desktop. But price was almost the same and the PC is so much faster in editing and rendering as M1. Anyhow, I am more impressed than ever what Apple developed. My conclusion is if you want to edit everywhere you can do it easily with M1. If you want more Power and speed in editing for the same price stay at Windows at least what I experienced.

[@donnik7064]

​@@matthewleibrock4414 core components: Ryzen 5800X Trident 64GB DDR4-3600MHz RX 6900XT 2TB Samsung M.2 NVMe 7000/5200 I suspect that the SSD storage and especially the graphics card make the main difference. I have a side business as a professional videographer and therefore I use editing excessively. The main differences I notice are that all the footage imports into the project slightly faster and also really never have any micro stutters during playback. I had those with the M1 from time to time. Basically, exporting is pretty much the same speed, but with more effects (especially AI based features) the AMD card shines. However, I expected that, since the graphics chip is quite a big deal. I mainly edit 4K footage with H.264, H.265 and AppleProRes codec. Maybe the AMD card can handle those codecs better, but I don't know enough about codecs to make a good statement. So I'm just in the happy position that I have an insane performance at home and also on the road :))

[@frostgodx]

i have a daily workload that runs the cpu at 75% and the gpu at 99% on an max 32 core gpu chip and have both a 14" and 16" specced this way and with manual fan control with TG pro i have to run the 14" fans on max and sit at 85c during this workload. Same workload on the 16" it sits at 65c with max fans or i can run variable custom curve and sit about 2500rpm (30-50% fan speed) to hover around 75c. Is the 16" way way better? Yes it is but the 14" isnt bad for such a load when it COULD hit and sustain 100-105c workload once in a blue moon yet it never happens and be fine. Its all about your workload and i believe 99.9999% of people dont use them anywhere near this peak. Even if they do, i can do the same on a windows machine with a gaming laptop 12th gen intel chip or 6000 series ryzen i also have on hand and end up hitting 95c and 90c sustained in a 14" and 16" respectively with wildly throttled voltages and absolute maxxed out fans triple the sound and annoyance.

I looked up the dimensions of the first 15” PowerBook G4 I bought in 2004, and the form factor of the current 16” is only .25” wider and deeper, but when closed, is thinner than the powerbook was by about .4-.5”. Crazy! 1.2” larger screen but minimally larger than a laptop that 17 years ago I had no problem toting around. I’ve just gotten so used to my 2018 13.3” MBP so moving back to that larger form seems bulky… I’m sure we’d get used to it though if someone really wants that display.

[@mattyjmogul]

Thanks Ryan for this insight! I literally was saying the old 15" was my sweet spot but I hadnt looked up the dimensions! I checked out the 16" the other day at the store and it is a BEAST in every way ! I guess go big or go home?

@@mattyjmogul It's tough- we've been so fortunate to have such great machines in small form factors- macbook air, 13 and 14" MBP... but I was surprised to find the new 16" with the smaller bezels compared to generation past Powerbook/MBP at 15", but larger bezels, really aren't TOO much different.. I have 15" laptops until they did away with them and went to 13". But its like the iphone vs Max... the Max FEELs huge, but most people (not all) I talk to that went with them got used them and appreciate the larger size. Ultimately each person needs to decide priority, but I was, again, surprised to find the size different not much different and more than likely someone who really likes that larger screen would get used to carrying it around in their bag.

I ditched my custom PC for the 16" M1 Pro and FCPX. Never going back.

[@dynamicrangeproductions]

I work from the office and at home but the 16 inch I'm guessing is too big for me

[@JoseSpenaN]

I got the 14” and I love is the perfect size…

[@bigbenmorrison]

Any recs for monitors to use with it when working from home?

[@frostybe3r]

Sold my 16” for the 14”, prefer the size.

And you are sorry now I guess

I’m not so sure that is the best computer for editors after see the last presentations from Intel, AMD but I fully agree that are very nice computers.

Great video as usual! Love that you want to help out the in the creator space here on KZbin as well. My biggest pain point is two-fold: 1 - creating multiple streams of income to supplement dry seasons and 2 - learning how and when to build a team. Also. I'd definitely get the 16 inch for the extra screen real estate.

M1 Max 14 here, brilliant laptop, however, when you fire up some non-Apple silicon program, battery drain goes right up.

Thank you for this video

Today I was at Apple store struggling to Decide which one is better! And this video came out just like to tell me what to take 🤩 Thanks for being my inspiration last year and I’m planning to be a full time youtuber.😎 Best of luck 🤞 From Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦

Currently, using a 13inch from 2013 to edit. I think I am going to upgrade to the 14inch instead of another 13inch after reading and see all the reviews. This 13 inch wasnt meant for video editing in 2022 with 4GB RAM.

Great vid Matti. Just an observation : there’s a ton of crackly distortion on your voice throughout. Either from the mic level being too hot or something in the post like a limiter.

[@ElyPenner]

Spent 1500 on a custom built desktop 2 years ago. Still don't regret it and it easily gets the job done. So I don't need a laptop yet. Also, I'm not much into Apple so I'll stick with my Windows PC. Other than that, great informative video, keep it up.

[@dougscott188]

I got the 14 for the reasons you described. The fact you can spec out the 14 the same as the 16 is the big upgrade over previous generations. I had the 2019 15 and back in the day the old 17 model. The 14 really hits the sweet spot for travel without sacrificing performance.

[@zoltanzana]

You are wrong, the 16-inch MacBook is the same size as the 15-inch models (2020 and earlier).

[@dougscott188]

@@zoltanzana yes I had the 15 model it replaced. I was not speaking about the physical size but the performance.

[@the.jonfernandez]

Think I may order the 14” soon as a back up/travel unit when I’m not home on my pc! Great video Matti!

[@khariosity]

Is 16inch 16-core GPU, 16GB Unified Memory and 512 SSD Storage ok? The M1 Max is so expensive

[@timboh8776]

Hey Matti, will the M1 max 64gb be ok for browsing Facebook? 😛🧐🤣

[@brandondelgado7731]

Would love to have that kind of money. Basic models are what I’m looking at as a creative since I’m not able to just dump 3k+ on a machine but all reviews seem to be of fully spec out M1 MBPs

[@Jc50gt]

I dont understand the trackpad arguments…im on the magic keyboard and that trackpad is small and i never have problems. Idk.

[@librehastademi3812]
