Ok here's a lil update on the performance and thermals: The 1.4ghz base clock is very interesting, because as soon as the CPU goes under load (in this case Cinebench) it turbos all the way up to 2.9ghz. Thats a 1.5ghz all core boost, very impressive. The temps (as with any Apple device smh) get up into the 90C range pretty quick and then the fan kicks in. By running the fan at full speed manually we can keep it in the 80s most of the time and run a 2.9/3.0 turbo speed. Scores improve about 2.5%. By the way the fan is 7200RPM, which is nuts, if only the iMac had hard drives that spun that fast 😉

Ironically I feel nostalgic because I still remember when the pro label meant that it was designed for on-sight pro workloads as the first priority. It seems like they are listening to the criticism and making thermal throttling less of an issue for those who need to push their system for performance. I remember Jonny Ive? Some apple executive saying that they heard the criticism of the thunderbolt 3 MacBook pros loud and clear. This refresh has me finally making the leap for sure.

If you need more, external SSD drives are affordable. Good way to add storage space when you’re running out of room for your stuff.

My recommendation is to wait till november Black Friday sales, the suggestions that the brand new version of the MacBook with the totally "new" keyboard without that butter flies s**t will come out in October means you don't loose anything. The sales in that moment will at least save you 200$+

Would you recommend upgrading to 16 gb ram? Is it worth it?
@rhythm1695
@rhythm1695 5 жыл бұрын
Dennis Updike Unless you’re doing particularly demanding work, the upgrade is not worth the $200.00, 8GB of Ram is already more than an enough for the majority of peoples’ workloads. Lower tier computers like certain Chromebooks only come with 4GB of Ram and that in itself is decent but 8GB is like the perfect middleground. Unless you are a Graphic Design Major and doing some 3D modeling or you typically keep a thousand or more tabs open on Safari, You will be absolutely fine with 8GB of Ram. I have this base model 2019 MacBook Pro and the 8GB of RAM has had no problem at all keeping up with my day to day usage. I am a college student btw. Hope this helps!

@@rhythm1695 Thank You. What I am trying to do is to eliminate that occasional spinning beachball thing that you get at times, and I was thinking that additional RAM might accomplish that. I do occasional iMovie editing and thought maybe the extra RAM might improve that experience too. But if you think that the extra RAM won't make any difference, then I'll save the extra $200. Thanks.

If you have 30 chrome tabs open like I do and also try to run other applications at the same time then I think it is worth it. I just purchased the base model with 16gb ram and 512gb SSD upgrades. I currently have an early 2015 macbook pro with a 3.1 GHz Intel Core i7 processor, 8gb of ram and 128gb SSD. The fan is practically running permanently and I have to quit chrome entirely at least once a day. If i open a blog post that has ads then it just about burns through my desk from getting so hot and freezes up. The mac also yells at me once a week for having no storage space left. had it for about a year and have a ton of python and node libraries installed but other than that, I don't really have a ton of downloads. Hoping this new macbook pro will be enough!

I don't understand the people complaining about this model. It's a great deal, even with this little storage. But, besides the ddr3 and 128gb (come on Tim! not all is a profit race!), the performance results at that price are great! It's $1k lower than 15' MBP. That, that it's a good thing. Great review Luke!

The only reason Apple is offering 128 GB SSD storage in the very base model in mid-2019 when this drives are now too cheap that even manufacturers are just clearing inventories to offer 256 GB as their starting opinion is (like never before) clearly profits. They know is not enough to do almost anything, but they are putting investors over customers and JON IVE KNEW IT!

What I'd be curious about is how it compares to the mid-2015 MacBook Pro. You claim that most people pick up the base model MBP but that seems unlikely to me. At least for software developers, a really big part of the MBP market, a base model just wouldn't cut it. They need more RAM, more storage, and benefit greatly from increased CPU speed. Many developers have stuck with their mid-2015 MBP due to the changes made since then which were just moves backward, and I'm curious if the new revision will do anything to woo them.
