  • A review of the MacBook Pro 14" M1 Pro Base Model 16GB. Even though it may be the base model, with 16GB of RAM. In my view. It's more than enough. In this video I show how I not only I export a video with Final Cut Pro. But I have a lot of things running in the background whilst doing a screen recording, and the MacBook M1 Pro keeps up!
    Keyboard and the six speakers are also great. One thing is that currently Bootcamp is no longer supported with the new M1 chips.

    Great video, how was your experience with Parallels on your mac?

      @ChuenL  Před rokem +1

      Hey, thanks! I've not used Parallels or VM Ware unfortunately. My old license for both had run out. I might give the free trial a go.

    Thanks for your review! Please share as a developer, are you comfortable with a 14-inch display?

    • @ChuenL
      @ChuenL  Před rokem +1

      14" is manageable for development for sure. A bigger screen or 2nd screen does help when developing. e.g if you have an iPad or you can plug into a monitor it helps for sure. But on a single 14" display - still works fine. Depends on what kind of development you're doing as well

      @@ChuenL Thank you! You helped me make the final choice. I have 27 monitors. At the same time, it is nice to know that I can work comfortably while traveling.

    Video editing is the utmost productivity Application for most CZcamsrs 🤔. Why don't they show how powerful macbook is with general productivity Applications?

    Purely as a software developer, did you ever think that the 14 inch macbook has a low battery life? That's the only thing stopping me to buy a 14 inch.

    Will 16 RAM be enough for 4-5 years for normal usage without video editing or rendering at all? Also , my friend is using Macbook Pro 14 Base Model and when he opens 5-6 tabs or 7 in safari and nothing running in the background RAM usage is between 10-12.30 GB. Do you think it is normal or Macbook works like this .

    Do you find 16 GB to be enough RAM for software dev? I'm kinda on the fence as to whether I should get the RAM upgrade or not.

    • @ChuenL
      @ChuenL  Před 2 lety +2

      Personally, I think 16GB is enough. I do some heavy back-end work and it's pretty quick. No probs so far. I've run a few Docker containers on the side and it's still fine. All depends what kind of dev you do?

      ​@@ChuenL Thanks for replying!
      I'm a bit concerned about 16 GB because I'm currently on a 16 GB M1 MBP and my memory pressure is always in the yellow. I usually have Goland and VSCode open, ~30 browser tabs, and miscellaneous things like Slack, Postman

      That's strange. Maybe this will help - apple.stackexchange.com/questions/432215/memory-pressure-in-yellow-with-new-macbook-pro-m1-pro-14-inch-16gb-ram
