[@frozeneye100]

I do not think I have ever made a hardware comparison based on how quick a web app refreshes a pic on a screen. That has absolutely bugged all to do with the systems since the user has the same bottle neck on wifi. Apart from that, what are the lane speeds etc. thermal ok one is hotter, but hotter is not always a bad thing. Nvme from Samsung for example performance increases with moderate heat compared to colder. Cores, sure nice but workload in real case different from benchmarks. I mean it is horses for courses. Take an intel nic and the typical onboard. Is there crc offloading, what about ram, is it ecc there are too many variables based on use case for this type of review.

[@andreasanna4844]

I did the same your export test with 14" Macbook Pro M2 Pro 10-core CPU 16-core GPU, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD. Same color correction as you, with LUT, color wheels, color board (and some other effects). 5 min 4k (from Panasonic GH5), export in ProRes 422: 51 sec (25% faster than the result you got with M1 Pro). I repeated this several times (51 sec, 50, sec, 51 sec). So I have to deduce that either you have an M2 Pro version with some problems or the M2 Pro chip has been optimized with some updates in last months.

[@metachain5345]

open a lot of chrom tabs and used almost run out of RAM and you will see the result because apple used two 256GB NAND chips in the M2 Pro 512GB MBP.Writes are 20% slower and reads are 40% slower than M1 PRO

So, if the base m2 pro is slightly faster than the 8-core m1 pro in video rendering and export, and the 8-core m1 pro has the same 10-core result (as demonstrated by your channel in another video) it means that the base m2 pro is slightly faster (but still faster) than the full version 10-core m1 pro. Apart from this, this speakers demonstration is useless at all. The difference between the two MacBook is the bass, much better in the latest model, but with a test like this you can't highlight it and it only seems that it sounds lower.

Much love

[@lilfr3shy]

Hello, I like how you do the comparison. That helps a lot. But I think If testing CPU & GPU together. the result of M2pro shouldn't be that bad. Also, for the writing & reading speed, it also depends on whether the disk for transferring is SSD or not. If not, it shouldn't have much difference comparing to M1pro & M2pro chip. especially the SSD disk is much more expensive than the regular one tho. But yea, Apple is obviously saving the cost to make more profit, and not surprised with this, since it's Tim Cook... and it's also very possible that they're even have quality difference with the same size of 512GB SSD on different levels of the new MacBook Pro. who knows? Based on the global situation, the inflation rate, USA interest rate, and so on, people in USA are lucky, they still get the same price, but not for people from other countries. and if their sales drop this year due to the price increased globally, won't be a surprise, either. and even in the future, and of course, overall, they shouldn't increase the price for other countries at all, especially when they're basically just upgrade the chip for M2Pro which probably not even much better than M1pro since they're both 5nm from TSMC even M2pro is the 2nd generation which mostly just help to improve the battery life. But it seems like Apple designs the M2Pro model to put GPU on the priority for workload. So, for people who only use it for normal tasks, shouldn’t have too much benefit from that. As for the 16GB memory that’s divided by 4GBx4pcs like on those articles say, I didn’t see you show it on the video, is it possible that you can also make a video of that to prove if it’s true ? As for the question, if people should buy the new MacBook Pro with M2pro chip or not. I think, the price, the speed are not the only main reasons for me tho. I’d also put the quality control into consideration. Especially with the global economic situation like I’d mentioned above, also the labour cost, the shipping cost are needed to be considered as well. I really doubt that Tim Cook would really put the quality first, and profit next. This is not the first time that Apple keep asking suppliers to lower the price. And TSMC is def going to increase the price, that’s for sure. And for the long-term, it’s very possible that they will lose a lot of profit for just manufacturing in USA. Like there’s a saying, There's no such thing as a free lunch. When Apple make suppliers to lower the price, of course, they eventually will agree cause they don’t wanna lose such a big client. But then, the quality will definitely be an issue. And I think, we already seen that for the products that are released in 2022. I personally would purchase at least 4units for the exact same models for comparison. For the M1pro MacBook Pro, I noticed that, for the keyboard, the F key, has an issue, that 3 of the models are more loose. Only one of them are tight. And you can hear the difference with the sound when you type. And for the coating, if you comparing with previous old models, they already change the way they do the coating. And you can see the details when you do the comparison in the sunlight, and indoor, then with the flashlight. I think it’s possible because of the environmental friendly reason. Same as the glasses nowadays. If you buy a metal like aluminum glasses, the frame will easily have Color-off issue if contacted with the skin or sweat. Cause they’re now only do 2 layers of coating instead of 4 layers like in the past. and since Apple’s other iPad and MacBook Air have coating scratch off issue like on those news, it’s possible due to the coating layers. Anyway, Tim Cook, once again, don’t forget where he’s coming from. Hahaha he def put profit for priority , that’s for sure. So, I suggest people who really wanna buy Apple’s products, not just only comparing the tech, but also better to put the quality for long-term into consideration as well. Thank you for reading my such long long comment. Have a nice day !

When the test started and we went to speakers first, I thought okay, M2 will have marginally better speakers but boom! I was confused if the left one was newer cause the M1 sounded clearly better. Then the most important part. The SSDs. I knew I was anyway gonna buy the base model, whether M1 or M2 so it doesn't matter if SSD speeds match on a 2TB config. It matters for me on the base model and specially with 16GB RAM, I am way better of for my work flow which is RAM heavy with these double speed SSDs on base model. And CPU and GPU differences were insignificant considering what I have is already extreme. Battery life, the difference I feel is even lower than what we got in the test as M1 macbook is older and battery health decreases even though not much but at least 2-3% in a year so _M1 Pro is still the _*_beast_*

A more objective way to measuring it would be making a frequency test to see which frequencies get coloured and which ones get cut in comparison with the original track frequencies.

[@ayisrael93]

Think that the speakers change will make the new Mac's speakers last for longer in higher volumes

[@RussRamz]

It's difficult to hear a significant difference between both machines. Is there a visual representation to compare the differences between the sound through an oscilloscope or something similar?

I’m planning to get the 1tb variant of M2 pro MacBook Pro, so do you think it will have faster ssd than the base variant ??

[@rescobar2845]

Hey men can you share your opinion of mac using his own cpu instead of amd o initel. what do you think?

[@benschroeder1161]

Do you guys really keep all of the Macs you order or return or sell them on eBay? Always curious what y’all do with them after the reviews

[@samarshamloo84]

When I watched some other channels for some reviews, I stopped halfway through and said, "I'll wait for Max Tech's in-depth review". Truly you guys go deep in reviews with good-quality number comparisons.

[@kaanverdioglu4403]

I had big problems with data transfers with m1 pro, is it still the same with m2 ? fast external SSD drives perform very badly..

[@kvz8]

would love to see how efficient M2pro running M1pro load as opposed to both doing their maximum load. Does M2pro runs cooler with more battery life when running M1pro's maximum load?

[@chrisovid]

Great video!

Hi I am planning to move from Intel Mac book Pro to Silicon Mac book pro. Is it the right time? Do you think the face detection like iPhone pro max will be coming to Mac Book pro. such case I will wait for the next pro release. You comparison is a great help. You have compared all. I now know some amount of HW in these beasts. Great work... Buddy.

[@sauravoraon]

Should I get Macbook pro 14 inch M1 pro 1TB or M2 pro 1TB?

[@tonyvowels5165]

What SSD size do you need to upgrade to, to get the faster speed?

[@Beatles4Sale.]

I’m a little confused. Are you saying you only get one SSD unless you buy 2TB of storage? Because 1TB or leas would be just one SSD? 🧐🧐🧐

[@AndysTV]

Does that mean there's no difference between 2 generation if I want to edit the video using fcpx? Or maybe it would be faster after an update?

[@ulven75]

I upgraded from 2015 MBP 15" to latest MBP 16" M2.. so happy 🙂

[@csenkeyviktor5143]

I am currently using a 2015 MacBook Pro. But I think I'll wait to replace it until the 3-nanometer M Pro chip appears.

[@pratikmurari8182]

recently my old MacBook pro broke, and I was thinking about getting a new MBp but I was confused between m1 and m2 module. thankyou so much this video was really helpful

[@federicovalmassoni3827]

Do you know if the heat sink in the M2 Pro version has made with graphene as per M1 version did? Where has graphene been used in other components?

[@ovelarnicolas1]

Great comparison as always but, I wanna know if the M1 Pro it's brand new in order to test and compare the battery life with M2 Pro

[@EmilDominiak-b7q]

Hello. Please tell me does the SSD disk consist of one 1TB module or two separate 512GB modules on MacBook Pro model MPHJ3ZE/A

[@mdlmarcondes]

thanks for the depth in the tests of the new machines

[@thiagohc]

I'm starting to consider replacing my old (but gold) MacBook Pro 2015, this new M2 Pro seems to be a pretty good deal

[@gnadenthal65]

Does 1TB SSD have two 512GB chips and the better performance?

[@alfonsobarreda2105]

I currently have an M1 Pro, so good to know I don’t absolutely need to upgrade. But I would still love to!! 😃

[@Patrick-ds1dg]

I find it really cool that you also give us a look under the hood of the devices

[@juancarlosrosales3885]

like how you guys go into details that others don't.
