The last best Intel Mac notebook.

[@alexanderberiom3660]

I used to worry about battery life, then I realized that there's power sockets everywhere i go. Maybe apple will ban power sockets.

[@HelloMyNameIsCody]

Apple only works with plug ins….. soon to come !!!!

[@R1L1.]

So true bro, I didn't take my PC out before but after your comment I opened my third eye.

[@RS-to2eb]

I had one. i9 with 64gb ram. It cooked my balls everyday I used it.

[@SandiMardiansyah]

I'm still using this macbook with i9, 32GB of RAM, 1 TB SSD for my work

[@digitalmarketinghumans]

Wild, I remember seeing these laptops in 2019 and 2020 for about $3500k-$5k USD. Now that same one is about $700ish. I loved this video! You did a great job and keep it up! I never owned a 2019 intel MacBook but I have been hearing reviews saying it gets too hot and it's not great battery life yadda yadda, but I personally don't really care since I want to collect one anyways.

[@RameshKumar-ng3nf]

👍

[@micomyizapacifique]

This is actually a very good video. I have both this same model and an M2 pro 14" for work, but oh boy does this thing get hot and drain battery fast. Still sounds better than the 14 inch tho, and can run windows and linux natively. Thanks for reminding me how good the 2019 16" is.

[@dandee008]

Yeah, I know that the Apple Silicon Macs are fast, long-lasting, and very cool (pun intended), but there’s a certain charm to the Intel Macs that are not available on the new Apple Silicon Macs which is being able to dual-boot multiple operating systems without the hassle of buying another laptop.

[@sentheaS]

I dual boot with Asahi Linux on my M1 Air :)

[@houssamalucad753]

When doing light work does it get hot on the underside? And how much battery are you getting?

[@RobloxianX]

You can buy a maxed out 16" MBP with an i9-9980HK, 5600M, 64GB of RAM and 8TB of Storage for just $1800 now. It's an incredible deal. Especially when you pair it with an eGPU like the Razer Core X, and an RX 6900 XT running Windows in Bootcamp.

[@Luke-qs2cg]

If your going to do that, might as well get a modern windows machine which can do that particular workload better

[@N3tigen]

I love to have 16inch MacBook pro specially dual boot These are at $700 starting range I'm will buy more years later this machine has much useful as now.

[@jeanpierre1615]

The only thing I miss from Intel macs is the ability to switch to windows when you need it

[@LanceRazon]

This will be good for big photoshop projects, with its huge ram, My m2 pro 16gb chugged when I had a project so big, had to use my windows pc with 32gb for that. Wish had the money to upgrade the ram beforehand but its rarely my workflow anyways.

[@M3TALISB3AST]

I recently scored a big deal on a 2019 i9 32 gb ram from a refurbishing website and I couldn’t be more happy with it. Works well 👍

[@RealNikolaj]

I've got one similar from second hand market 2 years ago, the 1tb with 5600M just so happy with it

[@dandee008]

@@RealNikolaj i envy you. How’s the 5600M?

[@euro9565]

I have the 5600M model I purchased some years ago and with amd fsr3 mod cyberpunk runs pretty nicely at 1920x1080 ultra . I suggest go into the power settings in windows and aet the cpu to 99% on battery and power supply. It will help with thermals and keep the gpu cool enough to keep fps high. Also I suggest you perform the VRM mod which requires opening the MacBook and adding some thermal pads on the VRMs. It did wonders for me .

[@cat-.-]

This machine can and should last you a very very long time. I have the M1 for the battery life, but I have only ever needed that battery life a couple of times for the 3 years that I've had it. Anyone that has the computer that you show in your video should not feel they have to upgraded it for another 5 or 6 years imho.

[@rom7n]

I have a 2019 MacBook Pro and don't plan on upgrading either, I'm just an average user. Only thing I don't like is the color LOL I wish I had a the black laptops

[@Ckopp123]

yo thats crazy i didnt know the mic on the mac was so good, no offense but its actually better than whatever mic you're using while recording the video. Awesome video btw I hope this blows up!!

[@dandee008]

Yeah, the recording was kinda bad because the audio was recorded with an iPhone with an air conditioner blaring its fans loudly. I’ve tried EQ-ing it and reducing the aircon noises to the best of my ability, so I hope you don’t mind that!

[@Mmacrossfirekenai]

Intel used to be the mobile CPU king. But the CPUs ran hot and Apple did not provide adequate cooling for them either

[@RealPixelDude]

i have a 2013 core i7 4th gen, 16gb ram, nvidia gt750m gpu, late macbook pro 15 inch and its still kicking lol. paid 130 for it

[@prakharlal9909]

honestly its a great video... i wonder why you dont have more subs im using the same config... and it works INSANELY well

[@chemtech90]

Good video. Enjoy your new mac. As long as its doing the job well for you - it's good.

[@EndingRex]

I was actually wondering if I should go with the MBP 16 with Intel, or the MBP16 with M1 Pro. And this video came up, it really is convenient that you can dualboot them to Windows natively, and that is the main consideration for me. But I'm not sure for how long apple will support the mac for, since I'm planning to also use it later for college and I wouldn't want to miss out on software support by then. (I'm also not sure if I'll get a unit free of the gpu problems you mentioned) So i think I'm going to go with the M1 Pro, still thank you for the video, it is very helpful.

[@macgamer1973]

My 17” MacBook Pro 2.2ghz 2Tb SSD 2011is the king for ports and screen size

[@yeshwantkethineni3694]

For its time, the 5600M GPU was so good for the space it was in. And you can put Windows on it. And I'm inclined to say you could've got it on sale in 2020 for maybe $2500 max? It was like a Blade 16/Zephyrus G16 lol

[@houssamalucad753]

The new G16 is the perfect spiritual successor to this, same slim and light design, but with updated more powerful and more power efficient hardware

[@blind_judiciary]

Still using Macbook Pro 13inch 2012 | 16GB of RAM and 500GB SSD

[@MarkHyde]

Depending on where you are used M1 MBPs are worth it - but Intel Macs aren't bad -I'm just sad that in future versions of MacOS Intel Macs won't be supported eventually. That being said - this is a good video, post-butterfly keyboard MBP is ideal.

[@N3tigen]

Next month apple launching its Mac mini with M4 Hope will be as previously near $599 deal (students discount) M4 + 16gb ram :-🔥🔥

[@DariusPaveliu]

You can find machines like these for around 600-800 bucks used. The limiting factor is, as always, corperate greed with apple restricting the intel macs more and more and slowing the system down. However if you ditch mac os, you'll get a very powerful linux workstation. Imo if you aren't dependant on proprietary software, linux is the way to go for older macs

[@LLOYDFUNGUIS]

Amazing video and great shirt! 👍👍

[@iwillose]

I agree!

great video, i used to have the 2019 16" i7 version and while i enjoyed the machine it was really imo held back by the keyboard, the key travel is just so shallow that it's not nice to type on.

[@saxomous33]

Yo hi Dandee, nice video

[@ArrivalheRe]

$520, i7, 32+512, battery 80%, screen good, slightly scratches on other sides. Do you think it's worth it?

[@em_azh]

id get it right away lol

[@dandee008]

I’d go lower. The storage itself is pretty small for heavy workloads like video editing. But at that point you might as well go for the Apple Silicon Macs.

[@ArrivalheRe]

@@dandee008 I can't afford a $1500 one but I do need a large screen.

[@therinwhitten]

The I7s clock higher because of better thermal headroom. If you only game and focus on single tasks, I would have chosen the i7 model. I do VM work in Mac OS so I need those 16 threads.

[@charliesangels4035]

Macbooks are NOT notebooks, they are laptops. I wouldn't even consider changing my opinion even if Apple added touch screen support because it doesn't have a 360 degree hinge

[@verablack3137]

I honestly don't know if Apple is going to win me over to their Arm chips, for the price of a M1 Macbook Air, I can buy a much better spec Intel Macbook Pro and I can run Linux on it, Linux on the m1 isn't great, and I don't think Steam/proton works on anything but x86. I don't hate MacOS though, it just seems a bit limiting to only be able to run it, as I am running Linux on my current Intel MacBook Air.

how much did you pay for it when you bought it?

[@Fizcakesprite]

Can't you get an M1 for just 600$?

[@dandee008]

While, yes, the M1 Macs are far cheaper and a bit more powerful than this giant honkin machine, Intel Macs can have the ability to run Windows and Linux natively, like I mentioned at the end of the video. No emulation or virtualization necessary. People who use an Intel Mac have some use cases where they need an Intel Mac to run macOS and maybe Windows for other purposes on the same computer instead of buying another workstation-grade Windows laptop/computer.

[@Ssin1235]

@@dandee008 The thing is that, even emulation on M1 will give you better experience than native windows on 2019 Macbook. And I'm not even joking, was expecting mediocore experience when upgraded to M1. But it actually run smoother, quieter and longer than 2019 one, games run better when unplgged. Plus I don't even need to switch OS when I have that need.

The delete key functions as a backspace on a regular keyboard. However, if you’re talking about the other delete key, you can make-do it by pressing fn+delete.

When docked i have it on a laptop cooling pad so i can get all the power of the i9 (got a great perfomance boost with the new thermal headroom) and when im on the go i use the low power mode. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n2TQg5-XnZifbZYsi=Fbj5I8E4bFHor0wz vid reference for how the holes look like mine over both fans

[@Ssin1235]

Apple silicon is not the future for Mac, it is already the PRESENT for Mac. The latest core i9-9980HK got smoked by M1, an entry level chip for modern mac FOUR YEARS AGO. And to get it you don't even need to spend a lot, they are like $500 $600 all over the place. Just sell the 16 and basically you can spend nothing and move on to modern life.

[@therinwhitten]

Not everyone is quite ready to move to apple silicon. VR, EGPU, and bare metal OS work is needed for some of us. I love Mac OS, but NEED bare metal windows. And I like being able to throw an RX6800XT on it and Play VR. Not to mention there are more threads to work with on Intel Macs unless you fork a ton for an M3 Max.
