The A18’s multi-core score approximately rivals the original M1 chip from 2020, of which many people still use to this day with adequate performance characteristics.
Bro, people still use Intel-based MacBooks!
Mid-2015 MBP with an i5 and 8 GB RAM checking in, I have loved this poor machine to death and use it daily for coding and hobby game dev, but it is finally time to upgrade. I’m planning on getting a very spec’d out 16 inch of whatever comes out in the fall.
Work got me a 16 inch with an M4 Pro and I love it so much.
They splurge on that antiglare? Only thing pretty much on my wish-it-had for my older Apple silicon MBP.
Sadly no, but I use it closed and attached to a dock 90% of the time, so it doesn’t bug me too much
Ah there you go!
Fancy dock? (I settle for a little hub)
I said dock but hub is probably the better word, actual docks are so expensive
My daughter is using my 2018 MacBook Air.
M1 MacBook Pro Max, far beyond adequate for… 99(+)% of the population
How often has this person’s predictions been correct?
M1 performance with (hopefully) 16 gigs of ram? Yeah that's the perfect computer for a "normal" person who just wants to browse the web on something other than a phone or tablet.
Honestly I just wish these machines had better display scaling options. I'd really like a "looks like 1080p" (ish) option for when I'm out and about and need to remote desktop into my PC at home for work stuff. Currently I use an el cheapo ThinkPad for that.
The cynic in me directly thought of how this could be a way for Apple to force the Mac App Store on these machines. Granted it is based on a fear, not grounded on something.
