Did you upgraded your OS to latest version before performing test ?

[@Ryukushin]

The M2 chips generating more heat on the performance cores specifically because they have more cache space to crunch data, and the tolerance has been pushed to the 105 Celcius area. The wattage of course comes into play, but Apple needs to adjust its fan curve to these M2 chips with an update for sure. At first I thought it was just the wattage but its really the performance cores getting hotter cause of the ability to crunch more data After reviewing certain tasks I do, I can't advise a M2, the SSD bottleneck is too large on the stock or upgraded model. I'd rather wait for m3 or Dragon ryzen cpu's

[@surena9451]

​@@Tech-geeky I forgot that I even made that comment so had to think back what I meant. I probably was refering to the "silence" in a sense like very low noise of two fans running at idle, which would probably be enough cooling to sustain the higher performance. Having a single fan and letting it kick in with a more aggressive curve (or anything earlier than thermal throttling) could have the consequence of more noise while two fans could have the same or better performance at lower or same noise levels, respectively. Not to mention, if you have two fans then you also need two sides with a heatsink instead of one. This would directly corelate to more surface area aiding the fans in low RPM low noise scenario. It's easier to remove heat with big surface area than a tiny one, hence why passive coolers are so massive but silent while stock coolers also do the trick with much smaller footprint at the cost of much more noise.

[@JackBellesPhotography]

This is an excellent comparison. For Lightroom, I suggest that you take a set of photos and combine them in a panorama. For the ultimate test you can Auto Bracketing for each shot. For instance a panorama consisting of 10 photos with Auto Bracketing will merge a total of 30 photos. I would be interested if this was included into your tests as it can be challenging to handle so many RAW photos. A RAW photo from my Nikon Z6 vary from around 30 to 33MB. A camera such as the Z7 will take photos closer to 60 MB each so this could be a good meaningful test for you to perform.

Really surprised with the fcp benchmarks too. Thanks Maxtech, keep up the good work.

[@DanielHarrisCodes]

Has anybody confirmed if the 512GB models have 2 SSD chips? If so just upgrade to that if you can. On the M1 MBA you get a binned chip (1 less GPU core) if you got the base model. On the M2 Air it might be the same (making a 512GB SSD upgrade even more worth it)

@@DanielHarrisCodes i believe iirc zoneoftech got a 512gb model and it was getting the expected speeds which implies it has 2 ssd chips. M2 binned has 8 core gpu, non binned has 10 core gpu. But the problem with the 10 core gpu version with 512gb is, if you also upgrade to 16gb ram, the price is then very close to the 14" macbook pro, which is a vastly better machine.

[@greghudson3434]

Seems Apple lets the M2 run hotter to reduce the power usage of the fan thereby making up for the increased wattage of the chip.

[@nickbrough8335]

From a CPU only basis, it seems the M2's performance comes from higher power use rather than any really significant improvement in core design. Nothing here suggests any future M2 based mac (pro/max/ultra) will see a really significant performance boost at all, over M1. GPU is better (but not that much as better M2 performance is also core count driven). It doesnt look like there will be any particular general reason to change up from an M1 Mac right now.

Trust. Thats what i feel alot of people will also do once they see the new ipad 2022 model comes out going from the M1 to M2 thus seeing the difference isn't that crazy. I mean sure there will be a different but the M1 is wicked fast already. For me i would rather keep the M1 and go M3 which will be that upgrade...

MacBook needs to slow down the SSD so the next MacBook release they can say there is a 100% write speed increase with their new ssd 😅

[@RaghavVijay]

😂🤣

[@unnaipoloruvan98]

Yup 🔥😂

[@unnaipoloruvan98]

They mistakenly released M1 because of excitement....now they realised thats y slowing down😅

[@rollor]

the answer for this product is straight forward: it’s macbook gov. it’s not for us consumers. in order to meet the RFP requirement, the product needs to be publicly available. also needs to be new enough to last yet old enough so it’s easy/cheap to maintain. think about the global gov/mil/edu balk purchase. aapl is making the right decision.

Thanks for this review

That's Apple Magic. I gonna keep using my M1 Air, wait for the next Air and meanwhile spent my saved money for an AMD 6800U 13/14 inch laptop.

hey Max i'm thinking about finally jumping in M processor . i know this review is year old but is macbookpro M1 Max with 32 gigs and 1tb drive worth $1600? or should i just buy m2 how does this look today?

[@kevinc-727]

I wonder how much the M2 performance tests were slowed down by the SSD having only 1 chip instead of 2 dual channel 2x speed? Tasks like exports do need to write. One question is 512GB storage enough to get 2 chips instead of 1 on the 256GB model you bought? That could be a huge performance reason to buy 512GB storage instead of cheaper 256GB?

[@RaghavVijay]

Great content-Really appreciate your efforts!!!.These Informative and entertaining video’s are so great!!!-I can’t believe the M2 was slower then the M1 in some areas such as the ssd!.

Hello Max, I am confused between MacBook Pro 13 inch M1, MacBook Pro 13 inch M2 and MacBook Air M2. I am a business school student and I cannot decide which one to purchase. Please let me know what's best for me, Thankyou...

Thanks for the great video.

Love your comparisons, dude. Keep it up!

Can't wait to see the comparison between the M1 Air and M2 Air's performance differences.BTW i always love your videos.keep up the great content💝

Love your video and content so much！

[@thecameraclub.575]

Can you do a m1 air and a m2 air comparison when it is released

[@faizanjoyia]

Do they have the same specs like RAM, and SSD

[@manuelhe46]

Dude, just opening up that MBP and showing the SSD changes made your reputation++

[@jamesjamias6796]

I would still consider buying your old M1X Merch. Collectable Mistake.

[@mateobustamantecastro9569]

Well, this basically confirms Apple did of the 13" MacbookPro a pretty worse product intentionally. When you look at the M2 Pro in comparison with the M2 Air you are going to say basically "M2 Pro is shit, M2 Air is great". We are looking at the end of the 13" Macbook Pro.
