#MacBookPro2018
FINALLY got my hands on the *i9 2018 15" MacBook Pro* , so here's my *In-Depth Test, covering Video Editing, 3D Rendering, i9 Throttling, i9 vs i7 & more* !
Hope you guys enjoy this! Wasn't an easy one to make but I really hope this clears things up, about the 2018 i9 MacBook Pro, especially.
Your awesome
Yeah you’re awesome bro
Would love to see a battery life comparison of this i9 using Fcpx vs the Dell XPS 9570 using premiere (with the 4k display).
For portable video editing both appear to be great, the Dell more powerful but the Mac more optimised for its specific software.
Great video!
I'd really love to see a comparison of the i9 vs the 2.6 Ghz i7 model.
It does reach 4.8 Ghz as advertised, that figure is only for one core performance and you can test it by running instruments app which allows you to run the whole system with one core by changing the preferences within Instruments. Try setting it to 2 cores ( in reality 1 core with 2 threads) and run the intel power gadget with cinebench, and I guarantee the clock speed will maintain 4.8 Ghz for one core performance.
I must say this is the most comprehensive before and after test results I have seen on this. I know it had to be a lot of hard work, great job!
This is why you are the best. You took time to upload a comprehensive video about the 2018 MacBook Pro and not just rush it out. Love you Daniel!
Thanks! Spent another 3 days working on this :)) same as with the eGPU video. Love seeing when you guys appreciate the work behind the videos! 😁
ZONEofTECH your utmost welcome. And that's why I subbed you way back in the iPhone 6 period. You are one dedicated person who loves what he's doing!
i watched all 100+ videos published on youtube about mbp2018, but this is one of the best
Thanks for making so much confusion easy to understand!
FINALLY the video I needed, with all the interesting tests, thanks, subscribed.
You do a great coverage and explanation of the throttling issues on 2018 MacBook Pro. Well illustrated and explained. I really enjoy you coverage of Apple products. A goldmine for those considering a purchase.
Well done and good to see the 3D modeling too.
Thanks a lot Zollo! 😁 You were one of the first ones to compare the 2. Did you end up keeping the 2018 ?
Best review about the macbook and the thermal problems so far. Realy nice work!
You are the greatest. You where the one that helped me decide what MacBook Pro to get. Thank you and keep making the best videos on CZcams.
Ryne Robson which one did you get?
David Jimenez Roman 13” with all maxed expect for storage
I do love your quality videos 👍🏻 Very interesting 👍🏻
This was most definitely one of the most informative evaluations you have made. I love the way you cooperate with all those other CZcamsrs. Big thumbs up. (Calling from Hamburg, Germany)
Best video I have seen on the issue. Fair and balanced. Right on point. THANKS!
Best review and update for the MacBook pro 2018 that everyone should watch to get the real situation, thanks dude 😁♥️
That video took SO MUCH HARD WORK. You are truly skilled and your product shows it. Thank you for your tremendous effort!
Well done mate and thank you. Most comprehensive comparison seen! Keep up the great work! All the way from Melbourne, Australia :)
I’m wondering if the differences in performance between the i7 and the i9 is because of the generation. What would be interesting to see would be the 2018 i7 vs the 2018 i9, because the jump is $300, almost 10% of the price. Would you get 10% more performance? Anyways great video.
Now, that IS a good tangent right there. Agreed. Although this does not detract from the validity of this video at all.
He is so adorable. You just can’t hate him.
LukasInk agree! 😍😍😍
he seems like a genuinely nice person. like if he would ask for my credit card information, i would gladly give it to him 😂
hahahahha u just made my day!! i think hes so charming
It looks like a good machine, I’m glad Apple has been fixing the issues that have come up, hopefully they continue to do so. As a casual user, though, I will stick to my MacBook Pro 2016 13 inch
This is a really thorough video about the Macbook pro 2018 and i really think you deserve more props and recognition for doing such a great job ! Keep it up man
Most informative video about Macbook Pro 2018 with i9 processor. This video helped me to make choice. Thank you.
Well made, clear explained test results! Great job with this small thumbnails in lower left corner :)
Love your "peacefull" way while talking about tech :) cheers
This was really good to hear. Now you’ve made my decision hard again.
You are one of my favourite CZcamsrs and to finally get a good vid on the new mac is awesome!! 😃😃
Excellent work.
Daniel, I'm Daniel, lol, You did an amazing job like always, thank you...
Thanks Me! 🙏😁
Nooo..., I forgot to buy popcorn. I will save it to watch later. Not gonna ruin the fun! Thanks for the video!!!!
You're the first youtuber I see to do 3D tests
Great vid. Very thorough and clear testing. Props to you and all the other CZcamsrs - so helpful when looking at buying one of these.
Great video Daniel! Best detailed tech CZcamsr out there!
Has anyone else got that popcorn ready before watching he’s vids?
Good to see simple objectivity.
His videos r so informative thou i like that
Another great video! 👍🏻👍🏻
The best video explaining the issue. Thanks Daniel!
Tbh is not forgivable that we the users have to be doing these tests. Apple is supposed to do all of this crap before launch, I mean they've had to know how the thermals would of behaved. I still have to see one of these laptops hit it's "advertised" clock speeds, false advertising at its finest lol
Great work mate.
Thank you very much for your work man...
Nice stuff Daniel. Frankly I don't need such a machine because I am not an artist or creator but I do so love your videos. You explain so well. You say it like it is without gimmicks. Glad to see you again. You're the only one I really trust with Apple product assessment. Keep up the good work!
Clicked for his looks. Subscribed for his content.
Thanks. Your videos are always well done. This one is incredibly helpful. Really great.
Great video with no biases.
As a straight guy, I can almost have crush on you because of how you throughly do these tedious tests. Keep up the good job!
And of course thank you lol
Well done vid! Thnx! Good that you show actual percentage improvements near the end, although at some moments you just show improvement in seconds and minutes. Just make it percentages everywhere or even better mention both!
Great video and comparison
Nice Job man! Appreciate the follow up detail to Dave 2D's VIdeo.
Firstly, i think that there wasn't much improvement before and after the update with FCPX because FCPX is optimized anyway for the Mac, but it's good to see that the clock frequency and temperature is more stable after the update!
I personally have a Mac Pro 2013, which i bought a year ago when Apple updated the pricing on those machines. For what i do, it's a really good machine, most of the time i use FCPX and Logic Pro X. I do use Photoshop and Dreamweaver for graphic (web) design and it all runs more then fine. However, i did expect a faster machine when it comes to web browsing, it really can be slow at some times. But because this machine is more of a work machine (for movie/music production), i'm okay with this. I do hope that the Mac Pro that will come out in 2019 will be modular enough in the way that we can at least change: GPU/SSD/RAM. CPU would be nice but, well, uhm, it's Apple 😜 One can hate over Apple i do not care personally, i like both Windows and Apple for their own reasons.
Great video!
Great job. Thank you.
This is an excellent video.
Great analysis
Great video 😀👍
I love this Macbook. It allows me to edit RED footage or any 4K footage with out choking. My old 2017 laptop would constantly choke. I'd have to put it on half resolution. But it was still sticky when moving the mouse on the timeline. Now the 2018 is much better. Unfortunately until more time passes it'll take time for updates to actually use the power the computer has built into it.
I trust you so much that i first like the video and then watch it❤
Finally found a proper comparison for Adobe Premiere on i9. Thanks for the great work!
Is 97 degrees ok? Is it possible roast the laptop making a render? Or is there a plan B, like shutting down or something like that?
Please also do the new 13" review
This video saved me my hard-earned money. I’ll just wait for the upgrade next year. Thank you.
lol @ those temps
You pray a lot during your videos. Were those prayers for the MacBook Pro 2019 ? 🤣 great video BTW
Love 💖 the 15 “ Pro Apple 🍎
Great work well done from oz
Salut Daniel, my problem with the new MacBooks is the “charging” issue and i don’t understand why no one doesn’t discuss it. It’s clear that you need an TB dock to seriously use an MacBook at a desk with external storage, display and peripherals. All the good docks continously charge the battery. Also the eGPU enclosures and TB or USB-C displays. As a long time user of MacBooks i have changed enough batteries to know it is bad to work 8-10h/day continuously charging and not discharging the battery. Solutions exist, but compromising maximum performance with lesser TB 2 or cheap USB-C docks and forget retina (LG Ultrafine 5K display is the last 27’ 5K display on the market, all the others being discontinued). And newcomers deserve to be made aware about this issue.
Sorry for insisting, but can you talk about the MacBook Pro 13 inch. I just wanted to know if it’s worth the cost for college & basic video editing ?
Made to the end lol 😝 Keep up the good work 💪🏻💯
Felicitari :D
Another cracking video. Torn between a 13” and 15” at the moment - and plans to review the i7 2018 hexacore MacBook Pro? Specifically the 2.6ghz model.... perhaps a comparison between the 13” & 15”?
Very good review .. good job ! The main question remains for Jose who are looking to purchase a 2018 MAC . Would you get the i7 2.2 /2.6? Or the i9? From what I’ve seen you are better off with the 2.6 as even with throttling you can get stable frequencies of around 3.1/3.2 ghz exporting . So is the extra $$ worth getting the i9 compared to 2018 i7 models? I don’t think so especially with that case , you’ll eventually kill that i9 chipset as time goes on. Let me know what you think zonetech.
So detailed.
Always :)
ZONEofTECH I really dont like most of what apple does and for the price of 2 fully spec macs 2018 with a 256gb ssd cost the same as a 4tb fully spec one. Rather buy 2 and use x hard drives for space. Way cheaper. $3400 for a 4tb ja crazy already paying $3300 for a 256gb fully spec one. Why pay $100 more than double the cost for a 4tb🤔😞🤢
ZONEofTECH and add in tax in Ohio its 8%
so Apple seemingly DID lower the Vcore.. "missing digital key" NO one i asked (all programmers) did know what they possibly could mean by that..
Another great video! Thanks for touching down on CAD - you're definitely the first person to open that topic.
Knowing you have an 13" MBP I would appreciate if you can find some time to run Fusion 360 and share your thoughts with us.
I am using an elderly 2013 13" MBPR with i7 running at 3.0GHz and I am really considering an i7 2018 13" MPB as upgrade - hoping the eGPU would also be supported by Autodesk team.
Thanks
Where was the video that you were editting on Final Cut Pro? (Apple eGPU Review). Is it the “Do Not buy Apple eGPU”?
Great video
Hello, Daniel, what do you think about constantly working fans at 2k rpm (while idleing)? Do you think it's okay for that high-end product?
My favorite youtoube guy was made again a great video. Thx daniel for it again. 👍👍👍. Do u know how expensive your over alll macbook pro now is? With all the software u have on it?
One question? What says Daniel always at the end of the videos? After. His Next one..
Nice video, thank you for your explanations, however i wanted to let you know that the link (Macbook Pro) in your described redirects to the "old" Macbook Pros (quad-core models).
Keep your great work up, really interesting to see that you are modeling your 3d-renerings by your own and see some real figures.
Good video. I'm uncertain why your conclusion talks about lower temperatures, since temps appear to be 4-8C higher after the update, although some of the pkg temps were lower.
I think Adobe needs to have a big update to address the issues for Apple new MacPro Books. Has anyone emailed them letting them know that their products are not up to par to any Apple equipment. Since we all rent their software at lease they can update their software to run more efficiently on a Mac or PC platform
And the fan rpm? Do you think that should be improved? How does it handle on the tests?
Get a
Smc fan control app, great
I love the mac OS, but their laptop line is not that well designed, specially for the new and more powerful chips, since it can't dissipate the heat properly. That being said, I still love their operating system and I'm moving more towards their iMac line-up now while keeping in check my 2012 macbook pro
Great testing!!! Could you test it against the 2.2 and 2.6 GHZ 2018 MacBook pro models??
Great detail video. But bootcamp is a thing in macs. i like to see how it perform under windows using bootcamp. Specially Adobe premier performance and thermal issues.
Awesome video !!! Question tho did u get that strike removed yet !
Not yet :(
Oh Daniel, my eyes adored you, you look superb.
Good job!
love the vids just give me more
he looks really adorable!!
Great review. Is there any good comparison of i7 2017 vs i7 2018?
Do you ever leave the apartment?
Hi there....is Apple going to make a new updated Mac mini? Thank you
Very nice job, thanks a lot! Please make a Macbook Pro 2018 Intel Core i9-8950HK vs Intel Core i7-8850H deep comparison as well.
Hi Daniel, I was wondering if this macbook pro is value for money if music production is the only thing its going to be used for.
The i9 looks like an incredibly bad buy; can you try something? I use a Rain Designs iLap stand for my current macbook pro and I believe it lowers the temperature somewhat (I find the fans go on much less). Do you have a "heatsink stand" to try the i9 on? Also have you tried manually turning up the fans to max while doing the worst case tests? Just wondering if we know we're rendering etc if we temporarily maxed out the fans. Wonder if this is going to lead to a 3rd party "cooling tray" solution lol
Thank you
92C...I can't wait to see how high it will get and the throttling will reach after a year or two when the thermal paste becomes dust and the user can't replace the paste. Apple and others who release computers like this should be ashamed of themselves.
what about having boot camp and running native windows and adobe. Would the performance be better with adobe test or you do really need a native windows laptop? Nice work for the testing. It is what I call 'in depth'
Fun fact about that - on the same hardware, Premiere runs WORSE on Windows. It is better optimised for macOS in general, which applies to many other programs as well. macOS is a lighter OS. But Premiere still needs a ton more optimisation.
you should install windows 10 on the macbook pro to see if there is any performance issues
Can you put iOS on a Windows laptop? If you can I bet they're be better than in light laptops from 2018 that are also cheaper
3d rendering test yay! :)
Now repeat with external nitrogen liquid cooling. You will be amazed.
Great video, but your percentages were quite misleading. When you said "32% improvement", that 32% was calculated by (difference in times)/(after update time). To be more accurate, it should have been (difference in times)/(before update time) to give a result of a 16% improvement. I only checked this statistic, but I believe you made this mistake with all of your calculations.
Suchir , thank you ever so much for not having an image on your avatar !
In reference to the speed issues, faster processor runs hotter, also I believe Adobe is updating they software to be optimised for the 6-core i9 cpu
They already updated Premiere. Forgot to mention this in the video, but I was running the updated Premiere version.
Ah sweet!! I’m currently Mac-less, can’t wait for mine to arrive now, apparently it won’t get to me till mid-aug even though i ordered it as soon as it was available to order through my supplier. Which was next day
Tom Burden Try sticking to final cut pro
As it will save you much more time over adobe on mac/windows
Thanks Himanshu when I get my new MacBook Pro I’ll install and start using that.
