Objectively the best laptop besides the M1 Macbook Air. Seriously it's amazing how good the 14 inch is.
I'm hoping to get my company 13" (maxed out) MBP replaced with a 14" (maxed out) MBP...maybe early next year, as 2 out of the 4 USB-C ports have failed and I have to constantly wiggle the cable plugged in to make it work.I hope to Apple’s God there is going to be an Apple event in November. No press release, please. So many people are heartbroken today. 💔
"corporate" spy apps with Intel binaries, like McAffee Virus Scan (don't laugh)... FireEye...Streem... and a well-known cloud storage service that still does not support Apple Silicon.
Displaylink is hacky! I don't like it much. And correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think it supports vertical monitors (I am fussy).
Your M1 will be fine for years to comeI just picked up a 16" 16gb 1tb M1 for £1,680.
I was waiting for an announcement and then decide whether to keep the M1 or go for the M2. But going by the article and no big changes other than performance. AND the European price hike, it looks like I'll be keeping my M1.
The kinds of pro-level users (me) that upgrade >$4k+ MBPs every 3-6 years are not changing purchase decision making based on whether or not Apple does an event production. The available tech info is identical with or without a costly event.It’s pretty sad if the first-ever update to the pro chips isn’t significant enough to warrant an event. And what about the Mac Pro?
If my 2009 Mac Pro is anything to go by, the MBP most definitely will be fine 😄Your M1 will be fine for years to come
that's an awesome priceI just picked up a 16" 16gb 1tb M1 for £1,680.

That's why I couldn't turn it down and decided to upgrade.that's an awesome price
When you say N3 is obsolete, do you mean TSMC has stopped production of N3 and gone straight to N3E?The real upgrade is when Apple move to TSMC N3E which won't happen until 2023. N3 is obsolete and has been superceded by N3E.

When I was pricing things over the summer BTO delays were a month, so not buying these delays at this point as indicating production shifts for new models.I've made previous threads predicting the launch of new machines based on shipping dates alone. Always accurate. BTO is always a delay, but not like this.
For the zillionth time: Owners of the most recent last generation MBP are not the market for new MBPs.My M1 Pro has handled everything I've thrown at it. At this point I'm not sure there's anything that could entice me to waste my money on the M2.
People are spoiled with new laptop technology, they think it changes as fast as new iPhones come out, well only sometimes.For the zillionth time: Owners of the most recent last generation MBP are not the market for new MBPs.
There are rumors of a 15.2" MBAWill I ever get a 16" MBA?
Sounds like you're upset that your Macbook Pro is about to become outdated.iPads and MacBooks don’t need to be updated every year, I hope they can keep with the 1.5 years cycle or longer, waste of time for 20% gain performance
Who are you trying to convince, us or yourself? See above. These posts from people upset that they're no longer going to have the best are absolutely useless. Mods should start deleting them.Coming from someone who got the 16 on release day, it has been the best computer I’ve ever owned. The battery in this thing is incredible, and honestly for my needs, this thing is a beast. Definitely keeping it for another 4 years.
Tell me more. Releasing this year?There are rumors of a 15.2" MBA
Your MBP is about to become outdated. See my posts above.My 14" MBP is still perfect. No need to release a new model - it would just ruin the party![]()
This comment is as stupid as the "you'll never need more than 2 cores" people.This product line is already maxed out. Sure, you could give the scenario that artist and heavy creators need this. But I see documentaries being edited on Intel iMacs, Burt Monroy creating beautiful illustrators on an iMac G3. These so called creative tools from Apple just come across bling, bling status symbols.
How do you arrive at the better battery life? Not like the energy saving of AS SoCs with smaller architecture is going to continuously offset more powerful processors. There is also the problem that battery technology isn't going to radically improve.Sounds like you're upset that your Macbook Pro is about to become outdated.
They're going to be at the same price, more powerful, and for the higher configs probably better battery life. Technology shouldn't stop moving just because it makes you feel bad about your current purchase.
