Apple Finally Did It - 16' MacBook Pro

Apple MacBook Pro 16-inch is fresh in the studio for review. I've been testing out the laptop and comparing it to last year's Apple MacBook Pro 15.4" laptop for about a week now. Here are my initial thoughts on the machine. Did Apple finally delivery a machine worthy of that "Pro" name? Let's talk about it!

I have no need for one but I still want one, looks clean af

“I want something new... I don’t know what, but give it to me.” Ugh.

[noteda]

You look like if Louis CK and Jony Ive had a baby.

[UntiedHawaii]

Just got mine in the mail! So stoked to check it out!

[ijclnl]

Yep they finally made it, the MacBook that we should have gotten in 2016.

For those who love the background music between 2:34 and 4:11, it is "Last Time I saw U" from Sublab.

Still using my 2011 MacBook Pro, an SSD upgrade and its still strong

I like how you kept things clean in your videos. I didn't even see a spec of dust on the keyboard in filming. You seem to put out high quality product.

[JacobCastle]

The quality of these videos has skyrocketed in recent months, appreciate the consistent excellence!

[RalphLl]

Apple, give us an iMac refresh already!

[MonsieurSansHonte]

I suspect Face ID is being held back for the next iteration.
Would have loved an SD card slot.

I will most likely upgrade for the horsepower, but my mid 2015 isn't going anywhere.

[roygelbart]

Your video production just keeps getting better and better. Love it so much!

Your Video looks so professional...You deserve more than 1M subscribers

See, here’s the thing about the  tax that others don’t get. In 2017 I bought a refurbed iMac for $2700. A desktop beast that served me well for two years. Then, 2 weeks ago, I sold that iMac for $2600 and now I’m waiting for my new 16” MBP to arrive tomorrow that will suit my mobile, video editing needs. If that kind of resale value is the  tax, then I’ll pay that tax all day long. You just can’t do that in any other computer ecosystem. Easily worth the price of entry.

I love your channel and your new vibe. Keep up the great work team! Peace and love

[Valkyriesrevenge]

One thing I always liked about your reviews is as the end you always give your ideas on whether you should upgrade or not. Great work as always Jon!!!

[futuretyrant]

if apple made a 14 inch macbook pro in the same 13 inch footprint with all the same improvements, that would literally be the best macbook ever

[pltn]

Are the kernel panics still a thing ?

or did apple managed to get the t2 work nicely with the intel cpu ?

[swst]

Yes they did Jon, yes they definitely indeed did even though I use my iPad Pro for everything 👍🏾

[Seskoi]

Amazing quality, as always!
Thanks for the great work!
