@AVIRAL KHANDUJA just save the money for additional storage. If you value brighter screen and slightly longer battery life than an additional 8 gb memory, then go for pro. Otherwise there is nothing wrong with choosing air for coding.

@@MaxTechOfficial When you do the memory comparison, pay attention to the hard drive swap file size (or virtual memory). Since everything is integrated on a single SOC, there might not be any performance difference between using "physical memory" vs "virtual memory". So spending an extra $200 for 8GB more of ram might not be needed?

Thanks for your review! I went from a 7 year old MacBook Pro 15 and bought the base M1 Mackbook Air hoping I would like the smaller screen and leaving the MacBook Pro.

The gold is a rose gold and so pretty! The keyboard is much easier to use. I think the air is so cute, and actually like the smaller screen. The speaker is louder and better than my older Macbook.

Something weird must be going on here then.

[@tbirdparis]

@@jazzmike_ that's true I'm sure, I also do the same on a much older iMac. But that's not the point of this test. It's not just comparing general average use, it's very specific. Each track has the same audio instrument (Sculpture) and insert plug ins on it, the point being it's a stress test with identical tracks so you can compare any machine consistently. You can download this exact Logic project yourself, just google New Logic Benchmark Test. Then you can run it on your machine and see how many tracks you can play before your CPU overloads. I ran this exact same test today on a 2011 27" 3.4 Ghz i7 4 core (8 thread) 32GB RAM iMac with internal SSDs. I forgot exactly how many tracks it got before CPU overload, but I think it was only around 36...

thank you guys for testing out logic pro for music production users.

[@stevengold]

Yeah but it’s not really a great test, it’s probably at 128 buffer size and multi threading turned off, VERY important settings to check in Logic. No one produces with that low of a buffer size, these Macs should both be able to handle like 150 tracks

Cant wait for a 14” version of this anyone else feel they might make whole new macbook 2021?

I’m excited

@@aussiestubabe because of how comprehensive and digestible this info is. You can not find this level of comparison at any other channels too.

Your videos are so well done. To the point. I also love the idea of doing the Lightroom comparison.

Awesome videos guys! I’m just awaiting your RAM video before I order my configuration! Can’t wait!

What's up with the webcam audio on the MacBook Pro? Is it really that bad or did you lower it?

I want the 16GB Air in silver.

[@laurieforsman4664]

Gold to match my phone. But not looking to argue, lol! It's just funny how people are attached to the colors!

Honestly, the base model M1 Air seems like the best buy to me from the lineup, which is kinda amazing.

Yes, but only 256 GB...

I went for the pro. Comes in between 10-17 december. Genuinely excited^^

[@gorkyd7912]

I have no idea why people do this. You can get a refurbished 2015 16" MBP for less than the "pro". The 2015 will have more RAM, Magsafe charger, 2 USB ports, 35mm audio out, 2 Thunderbolt ports, and a card reader for photos. And it will have Apple's best keyboard and a bigger and better screen. The only difference is the clock speed of the processor, which you will use for what? Will you be processing video or playing games on your base model 13" laptop? It's enticing but, as a pro, I'd wait for at least a 16" version of the MBP.
