Nice perspective, you're a pragmatic person, which is wise. Before I saw your video here, I pulled the trigger on one of these, spec'ed at 16/1TB, space grey, excell. cond. from a local laptop seller here in Canada. Cost me only $999 CAD, shipped. Quite a bargain for a great machine. Use it primarily for watching videos at home. cheers
using this machine also, it works great for my use cases of casual use, handles heavy work decently well also. I think if you get a Mac, you are good to use it for 5 years at least. Make your investment worth while, apple products are expensive but they last well and long with minimum issues and it is really easy to use the machines, especially if you are software engineer.
Ayooo I just have a recommendation, I’d update the thumbnail because this view should have a lot more views. Professional work. I’d just update it with a clean picture of the mac w modern text
The read/write to SSD is so much faster on the 2019 Mac Pro with the gen 9 chip. M1, M2, M3 blow it away in benchmarking but I have to tell you. As a Senior Web Developer I prefer the 2019 in all areas for day to day work. Better graphics, better audio and I have never minded the fan coming on. At least I knew it was cooling and not just throttling like the M series chip macs do. Back Market always has great deals on theses too. Right now you can get a really good one for around $500+
I just bought a refurbed MBP 16" 2019. Best thing is the screen, surprised that I use the touch bar. The finger print sensor is nice. Downsides are the i7 is power hungry and it runs hot when doing anything strenuous. Will keep it for a few years before buying a refurbed M? MBP.
I was thinking of buying the M1 Air, but have started to look into the 2019 i7 or i9 16” MacBook Pro, because of the nice screen. I found some refurbished at a nice price.
I use a 32gb 2019 macbook pro and I bought it at a steal price. One caveat, please use Catalina on it, don't upgrade to Ventura or Sonoma. Catalina still lets me do video editing and it works blazingly fast.
Bro I have the same one i9 32gb and 2tb. I wanted to upgrade but it's like $4.2k for a similar spec. That doesn't seem like an upgrade to me lol the fans are loud underload but I'm good lol I'll wait for M5
I’m tempted to get the 32gb just for the added storage/ram and it’s not a bad jump if I would’ve sold mine. Just need the right deal on one. And like you, yep, that M5 looking right from this vantage point. 🤣
Terrible advise ... it get Super HOT and thermal-throttling is unbearable dude... and with external high performance screen it will always hover around 70+c to the point of unusable ... the lagg and performance and heat even with laptop coolers and clean up of insides
@@unikmandakh Thanks for the comment, man. Use case scenario, it’s still my main machine for editing CZcams videos and writing. Given the price point if someone can find it at a good price, it’s still a good buy. For a small jump, the M1 is more serviceable but doesn’t make this a bad pick.
@@mitchell_9709 If you’re only using it for a basic applications, you should be fine. I notice that it does throttle and get hot for me but that’s because I have almost everything open-FCPX, Chrome, O365. I still use it for video editing but I know to expect throttle and some heat.
@@JAXTWIN thanks for the reply, Would you recommend me getting this as a decent laptop for uni? Can get a used on for £550 wouldn’t be using any demanding programs my only concerns is the fan noise and heat after prolonged use. It’s either between this or the M1 Chip but I like the big screen on this
Nice review, thx) but this model has an issue if u tape model name + issue u see that eventually u got 12 v on the ssd totally crush all y data from hard drive so I'm little nervous about buying this product from amazon ( do am I still take a shoot buying this laptop)?
i have a 2012 macbook pro, i am getting a refurbished macbook pro 16 inch 2019 i9 4050 radeon graphics and a m1 air at the same price, i am getting confused which one should i take, i do edit short videos and dont carry my laptop as much, thanks
I want to buy a new laptop but a few years ago i used a random macbook for a bit and i loved it. Im on a budget but i really want a mac that will last and be used at work / everyday. What do you recommend?
Hi i am thinking to but the 13 inch 2019 macbook pro i5 16gb 256gb variant for graphic designing and 3d designing do u think it will do my work and also tell me about the battery life i want 5 hours battery backup is 2019 macbook is good for me ?
Do you know how this 2019 MacBook Pro 16 inch performs in GarageBand and Logic Pro X? Im a music creator and I've been thinking of upgrading to this model.
I’d probably recommend the 32gb and whatever storage you think is best. But only if you can find a great deal on one. The M1 is close enough in price where it may make more sense to grab that instead.
I have this exact same machine and I have both logic and GarageBand and run them both at the same time seamlessly no lag no heating issues or loud fan noises. I bought mine for $400 atp you shouldn’t have to pay anything over 600 for a maxed out system… but 1tb 16gb ram core i9 is more than powerful enough
It's alright. I'm definitely going to be upgrading pretty soon to taste this M3 that all my tech friends have been talking about. Subscribe to mu channel, and thanks for the comment.
Nope. 2011 was the last generation that Apple allowed you to have access to open up your laptop and customize it yourself. I know because that was the laptop I had before I got the same 2019 in this video lol.
Just bought a MBP 2019 16", 64Gb with 8Tb. Now I can dual boot to Windows Server, and run Windows 10 Pro using VMWARE on Sonoma, etc etc etc, great machine at a great price. Same spec in M series £6K plus. Apple just stopped selling these in their Refurb store at Christmas so there's quite a few years of support left.
I'm thinking of getting this next year especially since I've been seeing refurbished ones for 600 bucks ❤
Amazing price for this laptop.
still using the same machine but with 32 GB RAM for music production and I still love it
Great video just picked 1 up for 495 bucks with 32 gigs of mem and 140 battery cycles......great laptop
That's awesome! Glad you like it. Thanks for the comment!
epic deal. I got the 15-inch 2019, intel i9, 16gb RAM, 512 SSD, and radeon pro 560x for $592.
2:27 can't say this was a "TOP NOTCH" review, but still awesome.

@@JAXTWIN Mostly news and media consumption, but I also have a lot of backup files from previous MacBooks and iMac that I want to move around.
@@JAXTWINWould you recommend it for school use?

Just got a 16GB one and kept it on Catalina too for the same reason, don't need any fancy animations and still got all needed apps supported
Well done bro 🔥
Appreciate that. 🙏

brought it for £650 :D not upgrading it until security updates stops working, even then it would serve as Ubuntu machine.
Yep!...Ride it until the wheels fall off. :)
what a great video JAXTWIN keep up the great work.
Thanks!🙏

Definitely!
@@JAXTWIN really??? Thank u so much! Your the first person who gave me an answer this comment garners u a subscribe
Would using this for O365 suite cause the throttling issues making it hot from what I’ve heard ? Or is that only when the cpu is under lots of load ?

but this model has an issue

totally crush all y data from hard drive

I want to buy a new laptop but a few years ago i used a random macbook for a bit and i loved it. Im on a budget but i really want a mac that will last and be used at work / everyday. What do you recommend?
Mac mini or MacBook Air M2 if you need a laptop.
air doesn't support 2 monitors
I assume you’re looking for a Mac. Yes?
M1 air

so is the battery life of it still good if I go for Microsoft Word and surfing web for a whole day? Could it last for around 10 hours ?
Battery life is decent. I’d say about 5-7 hours for my use. I don’t believe the 10 hour hype.

Why would a 2019 MBP have a notch. The notch just come with the M1 14 inch!
I was talking about my brother's Macbook 14, which has the notch. He said he didn't like it after seeing my Mac.
Thanks for the comment.
I have a late 2011 17in MacBook 💻 Pro and I always liked this version . I wonder if you still upgrade your own SSD ? As for DDRAM 32GB will suffice
That’s a great question. Might be worth it to spend that money on a slightly newer machine at this point. Thanks for the comment.
