Hi everyone Mk here for a new blog and this is
the all-new 16-inch macbook pro this is something
My blog is unique I want to show you in 3d so visualise it so let's take a look at the specs you can see that this is the 64 gigabyte memory version with four terabytes of storage and it's the 16 inch macbook pro it has the 10 core cpu with eight performance cores and two efficiency cores a 32 core gpu a 16 core neural engine and 400 gigabytes a second of memory bandwidth
now let's go ahead and open it up so on the top we have a pull tab here and we'll take this off here let's open it up and this is a very heavy box so this is much heavier than i would have expected although they have made it thicker this year and i do have the last generation to compare as far as size goes but let's take this off here and this particular model if you were curious how much it the actual cost is is fairly expensive so you can see the current configuration here and it comes in at four thousand eight hundred and ninety nine dollars so it's very expensive starts around 3000 or more depending on if you get the 16 or the 14 inch let's go ahead and take the top off the box so we'll remove the top here
there we go and this is a huge laptop so you'll see there's a little bit of a circle here i believe that's in the paper so wow that's a pretty heavy laptop we'll set that aside for just a moment and take a look at what's in the box so we have a charge cable and we're back to magsafe so let's go ahead and open this up i like how they're not using any plastic or tape they're just sort of using these little pull tabs just makes a lot more sense so open these up and we have a braided magsafe cable so this comes out like this wraps around so we have a braided magsafe cable here's the magsafe connector at the end it looks very familiar although it looks a little bit thinner than previous generations then we have usbc and
let's set that aside for a moment we'll take a look at the paperwork that we get with it and i ordered this in space grey it does come in silver as well let's go ahead and take the literature out here and you'll see we've got a quick start guide and then we just have basically a safety and handling and warranty pamphlet and i think we have apple stickers in here and we do just kind of stuck in the packaging and we have two black apple stickers similar to that of the mac pro or the high-end mac so it's nice to see them putting the black stickers in here sort of signifies pro when it comes to that and then we have a power brick so let's take a look at this take the power brick out and this is pretty heavy duty and we have the power brick now we don't get the extension cable with it but you can purchase that
separately or if you have an older mac with the extension that goes here you can just plug it in and then you have usbc and let's take a look around the outside and you'll see it's the 140 watt charger so about 50 percent in 30 minutes or so so i'll put this away and let's take a closer look at the macbook before we do that this magsafe cable is about six feet long if you were curious about that and it is braided so it's really nice and should be great to use although you still can charge through usbc so here's the macbook and this comes in at 4.8 pounds if you have the m1 max cpu so if you have the m1 pro it's 4.7 pounds so let's go ahead and remove the wrapper here and you can see it says macbook pro on the bottom so it's sort of engraved or pressed into the metal itself and then you have four rubber feet and you've got the different screws like you would expect you've also got vents on either side so you have vents on each side of the macbook this is the back and then on the left hand side you have your magsafe you have two thunderbolt 4 or usbc ports an updated 3.5 millimeter headphone jack with better impedance so it should work better with high-end headphones around the front it looks pretty typical for a mac on the other side we have an sd card slot which is something i never thought we'd see return another thunderbolt 4 port and an hdmi port so all of those things now for a quick size comparison before we open it up
let's take a look at the last generation you can see the size is a little bit different it has a slightly different shape to the outside edge and let's take a look at the side of it so if i stand these up edge to edge you get the idea of the overall size you're almost a screen taller on the new macbook pro but i'm okay with that with the extra ports so it's a little bit taller it's about the same width and about the same height but everything else is much thicker with all of those additional ports so we'll open it up and take a closer look and there we go there's a look at the keyboard and it automatically booted up so this is a huge track pad we now have a completely black background on the keyboard and all of the keys are black as well we now have full size function keys and our volume button back and to me this is much better than what we had with the previous generation with the touch bar i was never a fan of the touch bar now you can see the keyboards they definitely look different and again we have that full size function row at the top which is something again i thought we'd never see so touch id is a normal size button similar to that of the new magic keyboards for the imac and if you take a look at the screens they're a little bit different as well so let me take this piece off here and you can see the screen extends up to the corners and as you move the mouse across it actually goes through the notch so let me show you that so it goes through the notch as i bring the mouse up to the top you'll see it goes through it doesn't go around the bottom it just goes through as though the notch was never there so now i'll set up the new macbook and let's see what it looks like this screen looks incredible already and i'll get it all set up and then we'll run some benchmarks now if you've never set up a macbook it's pretty simple just select your language click next then select your country or region i'm in the india so again select that and click continue and then it's asking about accessibility features or settings that you might need in order to continue so apple has always brought this to the forefront and if you need vision motor hearing or cognitive help you have those options i'll just click not now and now we connect to wi-fi now it's giving us some information about data and privacy we'll click continue then it's asking if i want to migrate things from my other mac to this mac i actually use icloud a lot to back everything up and sync everything the only thing i typically download is final cut pro and those sorts of things that i need so i'll go ahead and not back up we'll hit not now and now i'll put in my apple id once the apple id is in place you have to agree to the terms of service so i'll go ahead and click agree now we need to put in a password for the mac itself after setting up my account i agreed
to use find my and now it says make this your new mac and so you have options for siri screen time file vault disk encryption all of these things are set to default i'm just going to click continue so we'll give it just a moment you can turn off device analytics and app analytics and more but it's nice that they just made that one screen now we have touch id so let's go ahead and set that up so we'll hit continue you just place your finger down like you would expect there we go and we'll do that again just from different angles there we go and it says touch id is ready we'll click continue now it asks if i want to set up apple pay i'll set that up later and now we're all ready to the home screen it's asking if calendar would like to use my location or if i'll allow it i'll click ok and you can see this is the home screen let's go ahead and check the version that's actually installed on this so we'll click about this mac now you can see the version that's on here is actually version 12.0 that means we're going to have an update apple released mac os monterey yesterday and it was version 12.0.1 so we should have an update you'll see i have 64 gigabytes of ram and it's the apple m1 max so again this is pretty top of the line except i didn't opt for the 8 terabytes of storage i'll go ahead and click software update get that started and get everything set
up so we can check out a few benchmarks you can see right away we have that update available and if we go to more info it's about 2.34 gigabytes so i'll go ahead and install that and get this up to speed now while i'm waiting for the update to install you can see the top corners are rounded so it's rounded around the edge but it's squared off in the bottom left and bottom right hand corner
that makes it look a little nicer at the top i think i like the rounded corners similar to what we have on an iphone and they've got this notch now that sort of resides in the menu bar so it's not protruding into the display you're just getting a little extra room because of this bezel i'm sure i'll get used to that pretty quickly and once all of my applications are installed i'm sure it will be fine once they update to that of course when you're watching videos it shouldn't protrude into the display because the display is taller now so it's more of a 16 by 10 ratio where it's going to be a little bit taller so it shouldn't protrude into that notch you'll just have your your information here with sort of the top blacked out if you're watching a video now if you're curious about the specs it's an m1 max that i mentioned earlier but the display is basically a pro display xdr on the go that goes up to 1600 nits peak brightness it's mini led and has huge dynamic range it's 16.2 inches from corner to corner and it's 3456 by 2234 with 254 pixels per inch i don't know that there's a better display on the market in a macbook or any other device on the market at all that's this bright if i turn it all the way up you won't be able to see it and you can also adjust the refresh rate it goes up to 120 hertz it's got pro motion so if we go into display we have some modes here so you'll see it says apple xdr display p3 1600 nits and then we can change it to hdr video if we're editing that you've got digital cinema p3 dci and you have refresh rate set to pro motion however if you're editing video and you want it set to maybe 60 hertz just like a normal mac display you can do that or you can bring it down further if you'd like so whatever works for you again we can have this display scaled you can sort of mirror this over to a different display or extend it and eventually will have universal control also now apple also updated the webcam to 1080p you have additional sensors here in this notch so ambient light sensors and more but we don't have face id however we have the new 1080p webcam with the neural engine should make it look a little bit better but one thing we don't have is center stage like that of the ipad pro so that's something i'm surprised they didn't bring over since we have a similar processor but i wanted to take a listen to this and see what it looks like since we have new studio mics as well so let's see what it sounds like so we'll open up quicktime then we'll go to file and new movie recording let's go ahead and make sure everything's on maximum it is and we'll hit record and so now we're recording with the new macbook pro this is the 1080p webcam to give you an idea of what it looks like and also i'm no longer recording with this microphone but rather the mics inside the macbook pro so i'll be interested to see what this sounds like as soon as i'm done editing this video but in general it looks pretty good i'm just not sure it's going to be worthy of maybe using as your main camera if you're maybe live streaming or something although i could be wrong it does look pretty decent and maybe good enough for that but let me know what you think about the video and the microphones in the comments below now another nice little touch is when you have the webcam active you have a little green dot there to let you know that you're being recorded or that the camera is actually turned on so again another nice feature it's just sort of a hardware feature to let you know that it's physically turned on i thought we'd test the keyboard as well since i'm still waiting for this to update and let's see if it's any different than before it seems to be the same as the last generation where
they fixed everything it's no longer the butterfly keyboard so hi how are you today and it seems to feel the exact same also it sounds the same so let me move my microphone so you can hear it as you can see i don't type normally but it does sound pretty quiet as well it doesn't have too much of a clicky sound which i tend to like everything is set up and i listened a little bit to the speakers so i wanted you to hear what they sound like now you're not going to get the same sort of spatial audio but the overall sound is much better than i expected so i downloaded a royalty free song here i thought i'd let you listen to and take a listen to this i'll move my microphone so you can hear what they sound like cheers she that gives you an idea of what the speakers are capable of of course if you're sitting in front of it it sounds really great so i'm very impressed with the speakers overall now let's run just a couple benchmarks so first we'll go into blackmagic disk speed test and we'll just hit start and see what we get immediately we get 6413 for write speed and 5381 for read speed
now we're over 7 000 for write speed and strangely we're lower for read speed but close to about 5 77 megabytes a second for read speed that's incredibly fast let me go ahead and run geekbench on this now synthetic benchmarks are not going to give you the general idea of what it's like to use but it just sort of shows us what it's like compared to other devices so we'll go into geekbench 5 here i just installed this give it just a moment here i'll run this and let's see what we get so i'll run this one and then i'll also run a compute score as well so we'll run the benchmark now so the first benchmark completed and here i have on the left my core i9 macbook pro from late 2019 so this is the top of the line core i9 and you'll see the single core is 1003 on the new m1 max it's 1780. for multi-core we have 7109 on the new m1 max version we have 12 520. let's go ahead and close this and we'll run a compute score next and we'll run metal geekbench scores for metal completed and we had twenty seven thousand nine hundred and seventy five on the new m1 max version we have sixty eight thousand five hundred and fifty three so again incredibly powerful now in order to show the real processing power it's just not something i'm going to be able to do easily so i'm going to have to use it for a little while to see what it's like and the new m1 max 16 inch macbook pro will be my main editing computer from here on out this is going to replace the mac pro assuming that it's much faster so we'll have to wait and see what it's like editing but everything is sort of optimized for this

now as far as battery life well i'm at 77 battery life and i've been doing everything in this video concurrently i updated it that took about 20 minutes i installed a bunch of other programs i ran those benchmarks and we're still at 77 battery life we could get up to 21 hours of battery life now it's rare for me to be able to edit more than one video on something like this macbook however it's looking like i may be able to edit a couple just on battery power alone so i'll have to try that out and see what it's like but if there's anything specifically you want to know about the new macbook pros i'd love to hear from you in the comments below so far it seems great it's definitely a very big laptop i don't mind that at all being someone that's going to use all of its features and i'll have to try out the new dac that's got a little higher impedance for the 3.5 millimeter headphone jack one quick thing to know is this macbook is not warm at all hardly even a little maybe just a bit on the bottom since i've been running those different benchmarks and things but not hot like the other one the core i9 macbook pro would spin up its fans and get extremely hot
so i'm curious to see over the next few days if this gets really hot and i'm okay with that as long as it sort of increases its performance compared to the traditional m1 so this m1 max is something i've been looking forward to for a very long time and like i said if there's anything specifically you'd like to know about it that i can cover and maybe a full review let me know in the comments below if you haven't subscribed already though please subscribe and if you enjoyed
