This page (http://buyersguide.macrumors.com/#MacBook) suggests I should wait (the say 'neutral').
Any thoughts on this? I currently use a 2013 11" MBA that I quite like but I think Retina would be great and the keyboard too.
Hi everyone
Thinking about upgrading my old Windows laptop and getting MacBook
I am an online teacher and educational course creator and editor (that was successfully edited on my iPhone, that’s why I want something more powerful). Was thinking between M2A 16/512 vs M3A 16/512 vs M2pro 10 core, 16/512 and M3 pro 11-core, GPU 14 core, 18GB/512GB
At my local store prices for options above are:
M2A — 1400$
M2pro — 1700$
M3A — 1500$
M3 pro — 1900$
I am not a professional videographer and not running huge projects, but still I would like to have some potential for future video editing opportunities and creation of 2D animations for educational purposes
I really would like to hear from experienced people as I don’t want to waste money on unnecessary functions and at the same time I won’t have something underperforming
TIA
Hey all. I'm currently looking at upgrading my mac setup. I'm gonna build a PC for gaming, and get a mac set up for music production and heavy video editing.
I was looking at the Mac Mini, but have settled on getting a Mac Studio.
My question is; should I wait till the end of the year for the M4 chips? or is it worth going in now?
Also, the base model comes with 32gb RAM. I do a lot of heavy work with my iMac (My most recent projects saw a few occasions where the spinning ball made an appearance). Is 32GB RAM solid enough with the M2 chips or will I be better off with more? (My current iMac is a late 2015 core i7 model. 4tb SSD, 32GB Ram)
Any insight is greatly appreciated.
I’ve found myself wanting to buy a Macbook and would like to get some input as to which one would be the best purchase for a reasonable price. Preferably one that is well rounded, could be used for a range of purposes and has decent storage/ specs. And is buying directly from Apple the best approach? I know they do offer refurbished Macs at generally lower prices than factory new models.
