Reading this makes me feel extra happy with my M1 Pro😁
Honestly gang- how capable is the 15” Air? Because that’s what I’m considering now
Very capable. Unless you are just doing crazy editing of videos it’s more than enough.
Appreciate it!
Bit disappointed to see minimal gains over the M2 Pro, but I’m rocking an Intel 16”, so any M chip would be a massive upgrade, plus the space black looks sexy. Probably just gonna pick one up and try not to pay attention to the M4 next year.
would an m3 feel okay coming from an m1 max base? wanting a desktop mac.
Lol did they just do an Nvidia RTX 4060ti move? 🤣
Happier than ever that I scored an M1 mini for $300.
It seems like they’re trying to rejigger the lineup to hit a price point. They want to hit the lower price to help with people buying the platform and corporations buying them for staff. They also don’t want to lose sales to professionals who need power. The M3 Pro to M3 Pro is likely the same speed, but you can guy it at a lower price . That’s a good solution for non-power users.
Is it the same story as with Nvidia 4000 series? Meaning they upped the frequency but reduced bus width.
Why does every generation of M series chip have some slower feature than the previous one? This is so frustrating.
Well clearly the right thing to do is to just not be broke
I just want them to “innovate” their way into supporting an actual number of monitors that makes sense.
They do it to „upsell“ you towards M3 Pro. There is no other reason why a powerful chip like M3 should not support 2, 3 or even 4 external displays.
The video ram would be the issue with the 8gb ram version I bet.
Facts
(There’s actually a good technical reason as to why this is the case, to an extent, but the answer ultimately comes down to the fact Apple is being cheap)
What’s the technical rationale? Is it related to heat and efficiency?
