before you buy a Mac...

[@ToCosma]

Nice vieo, was really planning on getting my first macbook, hope it goes well!

[@notrottenapple]

sick! hope you enjoy!

[@ToCosma]

@@notrottenapple I was thinking about the base M4 Pro 16 inch Macbook Pro. Do you have any thoughts on it since it didn’t make an appearance in the 2000 and 3000 dollar categories? (probably since its 2500 dollars so it wouldn’t match in either of those)

[@notrottenapple]

@@ToCosma yeah! the M4 Pro MacBook Pro is the definitive MacBook to get if you have for the funds for it (regardless of size) great choice!

[@ToCosma]

@@notrottenapple Thank you for the advice! Right now i’m watching my pc struggle to get through my premiere workflow. Wasn’t expecting to wait around for a language pack at 3 am but that’s what happens :P

[@MrFuzzling]

NOOO DONT it funny plz don’t change

[@Winstonato]

I honestly feel like you are an extremely underappreciated creator. Love the effort you put into videos, keep it up!

[@FelixVG]

Great introduction! I've been running on mac since '17 and never wanted to return ever since, I've even got my dad into the mac a few years ago and he loves his as well. Only thing that may cause confusion upon googling or buying a mac is that the 2015 macbook did have core M3, M5 and M7 options if i recall correctly (like the mobile version of Intel's i3, i5 and i7)

[@TechniX_DynamiX]

Make a Home Screen review video soon!

[@notrottenapple]

Does a 2012 Macbook Pro count as an older Mac and looking for an upgrade?

[@Bananamandreanch]

Yes

[@KV21YT]

Nice video! I was actually watching one of your videos this morning and wordered when will you upload lol. I also like your animations!

[@LumpyMoose]

An advert for a Windows box in the middle of an Apple explainer vid, are you nuts?

[@notrottenapple]

no, just rotten

[@Bernhard-it1bt]

I bought a refurbished M1 MacBook Pro for like 800€ a few months ago, and it is Never Slow and perfectly Fine

[@danielnaron]

Thanks Rotten! This vid is amazing. I grew up using all kinds of Macs and I’d probably just send this video to people who ask me about Macs ☺️

[@Reeses0104]

4:34 btw, if your planning to get a Mac for gaming DONT. They can run windows games but it takes very expensive software and even then it doesn’t work great.

[@chadfli]

you could get a 2012 broken down laptop and fix it. an ssd really makes things fast on windows 10 iot entreprise ltsc 2019. better than mac os if you ask me, but since ive never used macos in my life, i cant juge

[@Longlius]

A 2012 laptop is not going to even in the same league as an M-series Mac either in terms of performance or battery life.

[@editorsanimationVlogs]

I use a 2010 macbook pro 15 with high rez anti glare display, 8gb of ram, 256gb SSD. I bought this all at the start of the year

[@sankhyapriyodey8663]

the video is actually well put together , liked it

[@asherdipps]

Even though I already consider myself a "Mac enthusiast" and Apple Silicon MBP owner, I watched this entire video, good work sir (:

[@somecallmesean_]

I’m probably going to use my 16 in core i9 with windows only until it doesn’t work or when windows 10 ltsc drops support because I can’t really afford an apple silicon Mac atm

[@woolium]

I really kinda want to get a MacBook Air 2025 if they're not super expensive like the Mac Mini. and also get a Paraells Deaktop liscence.

[@AlijahSimon]

Worst possible sponsor you could have had for this video, lmao

[@marclrx2495]

While I don't like Apple and would never consider buying a mac and use Linux, this was a great video nice.

[@ItsR1na]

uhh why is it in french

[@half-qilin]

I still use a 2012 15” Unibody MacBook Pro, with a 2.6GHz i7, 16GB RAM, and a 4TB SSD. Oh yea, and the laptop (minus SSD) costed C$130. Sadly the SSD fucked itself but that’s what I get for cheaping out on it (I’m saving for a better one). Fun fact: I actually downgraded to it from a mostly base model M1 MacBook Air, because I never used the latter. In its current state it’s as slow as molasses but that’s entirely because I’m booting macOS off a USB stick that can’t even persist USB 2.0 speeds.

[@Zayany-Malik]

Fun fact: You can download MacOS on non-mac machines. It might be a bit hard, but it's doable, so say bye-bye to over £1000 laptop purchases.

[@foxadee]

This used to be true but the new Apple Silicon chips, M1,..., M4 have proprietary instructions which no other chip supports. The days of Hackintoshes are now numbered. Quite sad but it's the direction Apple has been moving for over a decade.

[@Zayany-Malik]

@@foxadee I mean, atheist there are MacOS clones like PearOS, but, let's be honest, mac users just want final cut Pro and iMovie, witch I don't think you can get on non-apple OSes

[@vudoodaddie]

Did you edit this video on a Mac?

[@notrottenapple]

that I did!

[@Jemlim]

Correction: Don't buy Mac Studio - get the Mac Mini M4 Pro

[@Coldsteak]

12:11 unless you have a crap ton of pcie audio equipment

[@TheTexanDuolingo]

I'm curious, where is a trusted source to buy a cheap m1/m2 macbook? I'm very paranoid of getting scammed.

[@udarrenx]

Amazon/Apple Refurbished!

[@TheTexanDuolingo]

@thanks! I just feel like Apple refurbished barely has a discount tbh?

[@udarrenx]

@@TheTexanDuolingo ​​⁠It’s because they take it a step further than thorough inspection with refurbishing being that they replace the entire outer shell of the Mac with a brand new one, along with a new battery. It’s like getting a brand new device pretty much!

[@TheTexanDuolingo]

@ ohhh! That makes a lot more sense why it’s more expensive. Thanks!

[@jmahase]

im thinking about getting a macbook but i dont know wich one to get i wanna get one with usb a ports

[@aDeathbomb]

Idk if they have that or not but you can always use an adapter so buy a Mac with a M3 or M4 chip. But it depends on what things you will be working on

[@M4cintoshSE]

[@hbf_13]

Ah yes, a windows sponsor in an apple video

[@ThatWindowsGuy488]

can you do this again but for Intel Macs lol

[@Longlius]

I wouldn't buy an Intel Mac in 2024. Even entry level M-series Macs are destroying the best Intel macs at this point and Apple is unlikely to continue supporting x86 for much longer in MacOS. I wouldn't be surprised if we stop getting x86 builds of MacOS as early as 2026.

[@Fifeyz]

M1 MacBooks are really good

[@rickylucis9528]

Yes, i would like to buy but in my country they didn't sell the 16gigs version. So im planning to get the m2 16 gigs 256 one

Just thought i let you know you forgot to censor your address 😭 1:54

[@FireMunki63]

I mean the Geekcom is just a complete joke when it comes to work, speed, noise and heat. First problem the N100 only has 4 cores, second it only allows for 16GB DDR which for a Windows Machine is pretty dire. The base M4 Mac Mini is 4x Faster. Even my Base M1 Mini is over 3x more powerful in Benchmarks. This will run super Hot and I find it hard to see the value proposition with this. If they could sell them at $ 350+ dollars they would but they know the junk they are so they sell them for $ 199.00. The CPU costs over $ 40.00 and thats before we even get to the Windows License But here is the kicker the false advertising because when you look real close you realise its only 8GB of RAM. 8GB on a Windows Machine, good lucj with that . If you fall for this you get everything you deserve.
