I love this new MacBook because I don’t need accessories, I don’t need adapters. When I pick up and go it’s just the MacBook, enough battery to get me through the day and enough onboard storage for all my photos, plus the ports I need - my little pouch of adapters can now stay at home. And when at home it has enough ports to plug my peripherals in independently so they don’t all spin up when I just want to read an SD card. Love it
I upgraded from 2015 MacBook Pro Retina to 2021 14" MacBook Pro base model. I love the new computer and I am glad I waited from the M1 MacBook that came out last year. New Apple Silicon, SD card reader which I use all the time and magsafe. It has everything I need.
Just picked up my base 14 MacBook Pro and I love it. It has been a dream to finally get a MacBook and it doesn't disappoint. Will be using some of these suggestions!
I'm personally not a fan of larger laptops, therefore I went with the smaller size. The 14" display provides plenty of real estate for me. Comparing it to a 13", it provides a decent amount more of screen because of the smaller bezel. Keep in mind they are slightly heavier than last years models, so if you are moving a lot the 16" might be slightly heavy and large.
Great videos you've been doing on these new machines. I had ordered one from Apple with the 10 core and 32GB, then I watched your video on the base model. I cancelled my order and bought one from Best Buy, which came today. For what I need as a writer, this machine is fine. You saved me a thousand dollars, so thanks for that!

@@halocubed6788 I have a Mac and an iPad Pro and it’s great, from small things like being able to copy from one device and pasting to another to Sidecar when you get a second screen. But I’m sure there are so many other tools I’m not even aware, plus I love seeing other people’s workflow and get some tips to improve my own. :) having both devices for college seems like a perfect combination
Anker makes a battery pack that supplies 87w through usb c. I have one and would highly recommend getting one if you want a battery pack that COULD charge the MacBook Pro if needed
Nothing is more satisfying than watching vids about the MacBook Pro 14, on a MacBook Pro 14. Got this yesterday (base model) and it's simply amazing. Hardware is more than enough, even for development, and the display was much better than I expected. Thanks for the vid on accessories. BACK TO THE STORE
Nice to hear that, planning on buy a macbook pro m1 pro, just haven't decide the size, don't know if I should go for the base model on the 14 has I'm planning on doing some video editing
@@nic3939 Not yet, but when i will buy, it will probably be the 16in, I've seen both of them in person and for me the screen on the 14 is to small as I'm used to only using a pc with a good size monitor. Thanks for the input though
About the mouse : I'm 6'3" and have huge hands so was pretty sceptical when you recommended the logitech pebble a few years ago in multiple videos, but I find this small mouse super comfortable. For reference, I have a Logitech G series mouse in my permanent workstation and the pebble is just for travel. So the size variance on a daily basis is interestingly subtle. Thanks for the recommendation. I recommend forward the logitech pebble! Worth it!
I like the default charger better for portability because it's kinda flat and it'll easily slide into my bag. But again, it's MY opinion and the one you showed has 4 slots, so that's kinda nice too
Just wanted to thank you for the entertaining and informative videos. I watch your channel a lot and love learning about the new tech. Keep up the great work.
Please make a video on the removal of the touchbar ! I just love it so much and I’m interested what the pro community think of it as I have hope they make it optional in the future
I was wondering the same thing. I'm having anxiety issues leaving my 16 inch m1 max naked. Please holla here if you guys find a case for these precious babies!
Maybe it's an accessory too basic to be interesting, but I was really hoping for a recommendation for a protective case. I would expect it's too early to have a great one that is perfectly suited to the new 14", since it's size is slightly different, but did you use one for your previous Apple laptop? (The M1 Air, right?) I'm thinking that whoever made the case you liked for that laptop will be our best bet for the new MacBook 14" Pro. Just a thought! Otherwise, your content is professional and nicely paced... like always!
im going into my jr year of high school and i got a MacBook Pro 14 in and its been working well for summer school Im super happy with it and just a great but expensive buy
I’m glad you like that 14” I was worried you were still going to say the 13” would be good enough. Ha. I want the 14” for portability for working on photos and learning to branch off into other areas as well. I’m not happy about the cost, but the 14” is more within reach. I like your suggestions for the extra add ins, too. Does this run cool and quiet?
Thanks for your videos they are always very candid and not staged. What do you think of cases for MacBooks? Had a bookbook once and thinking about it again…
What about some sort of backup drive - like a Western Digital My Passport Ultra 5TB? It’s not fast, it’s pretty small and, most importantly, it’s VERY cheap.That way, when you’re on the road, you’ll have a local backup…just in case. Also, a protective carrying case might be a good idea as well - I found a Native Union Stow Lite sleeve that looks to fit the bill.
Are you planning on doing performance testing (Geekbench / BlackMagic) to compare your Air M1 against your two new Macbooks? I would be extremely interested in that. Thanks...
I played through cyberpunk with minimal glitches and pretty good resolution on my MacBook 16inch without even the highest GPU. You can play the latest AAA games

Hey Gary, been watching the videos for over a year now and I’m a huge fan. I’ve noticed you have a Nintendo switch lite and Xbox controllers in some of your thumbnails, and was wondering if you’d ever make a video about what games you play?
Great video. Everyday Dad, could you please do a similar video like this for Windows Notebooks and make it a monthly series as students/travelling professionals, etc. could genuinely benefit from being introduced to notebook accessories? Thank you.
Hey Everyday Dad, I absolutely love all of your shirts. The Ocarina of Time shirt gets me pumped every time. Love your content too lol. Btw I am writing this on my new MBP 14 😀
When you mentioned pairing a controller, do you know anyone who has had success with the Nintendo Pro controller that goes with the Nintendo Switch? I have that controller but not Xbox or PlayStation controller, awesome video!
I bought the covers(top and bottom with keyboard cover) for my Macbook Pro. I think it will protect the computer physical if I decide to bring it with me outside. I was wondering if there is a physical lock you can use for the computer ...
Love the videos that’s you put out 🙌🏼. Can you recommend me a docking station for my MacBook Pro M1 Max that I can plug in three 2K monitors? Just want to plug all three monitors to docking station and connect the dock via thunderbolt 4 to my new MacBook. Is this possible ?
