I went with the M4 Max 16. Upgraded it to 128 GB RAM and 8 TB. I’m hoping it doesn’t overheat or lag with my usage. I will be using it daily for E-Mail, YouTube and some light porn on the weekends.

I had to make a comment. Literally the only gaming I do on my Mac is WoW, and no one really does performance tests of it anymore. I massively appreciate the few seconds you gave to WoW. Im considering upgrading my MBP14 M1 Pro to the MBP16 M4 Max, not for gaming but knowing how WoW performs is a bonus.

0:21 The way you positioned the text to appear above the table line was oddly satisfying.

While I probably will never need the M4 Max, I tend to keep my laptops for many years before upgrading. Do you think it's worth the extra $ over the Pro since I will likely not upgrade for at least another 8 years as usual?

I'm more of a Thinkpad daddy, most of the software I use runs better on windows (civil engineer) so I'm not the target for this laptop, especially at this price but yes, is very impressive to see a laptop this powerful.

I will hold onto my M1 Max until it becomes sand again unless Apple is changing their storage and RAM pricing, they're charging 8x for storage and 4x for RAM.

Why were there “air quotes” when explaining the bandwidth of Thunderbolt 5? It’s factually an increased bandwidth lol

[fauveride]

damn! that microphone quality difference is huge

[mschf]

With that price it better not have any flaws and last for 8 years

[dannywinget]

Wow I would totally get it but I have a M3 Max so I think I will hold out

Gonna be upgrading from a 2018 15” Vega 20 MacBook Pro. Can’t wait!

I bought this one:

14-inch MacBook Pro - Space Black

Hardware:
* Apple M4 Max chip with 16‑core CPU, 40‑core GPU, 16‑core Neural Engine
* Three Thunderbolt 5 ports, HDMI port, SDXC card slot, headphone jack, MagSafe 3 port
* 48GB unified memory
* Standard display
* Accessory Kit
* Backlit Magic Keyboard with Touch ID - US English
* 1TB SSD storage

The perks of still being a student, haha. With the price discount I got the Pro Apps, so now I have Logic Pro X and Final Cut X. I didn't need the Logic Pro X license because I already have one, but it was cheaper than buying just the Final Cut X license, so that is fine!

I need this for my Gmail and web browsing.

Do you prefer the nano over the regular?

[willy]

I still use my M1 Pro 16"
Doesn't even look like I need an upgrade, this MacBook is perfection for casual use

[MW-mnel]

Finally some worth upgrade from M1 Max.

Great review. I appreciate the time and effort you take to cover all of the specs and extensively test the performance of the laptops you review.

As a long time Windows user, it is time for me to make the switch to the M4 Pro. The MacBooks just offer incredible performance and even better battery life in a laptop form factor that Windows are still playing catch up to.

Thank you for showing WoW on this chip! I do wonder how the M4 pro performs with WoW 🤔

[trickyrat]

It's only four times the price of my car. Well done Apple.
