I just wanna mac 💻 for my PhD study which one u advice
I can’t believe they got Ben Affleck to do this CNET video
Would it be more affordable after moving to use their own products?
You are spreading misinformation. They aren’t going to support intel macs for 2 years, they will support them for way way longer. Support isn’t tied to that 2 year.
I’m buying my first laptop , 16inch 9gen or wait for silicon ?
Wait…buy an amd powered windows laptop instead!
Yeah, wait until you don’t have anything better to do with $2500.
Let’s hope that the arm cpu will not over heat…
Apple is overpriced
Because you can’t afford it untill MacBook 2009 goes on sale on ebay for 100 dollars
I don’t think I’ve ever bought any tech and it been current after I bought it. I bought the XPS 13 ONE DAY before they announced the new model. ( True story )
The thing with rapid changing technology is that if your always putting yourself out by waiting for the next big thing, you will always be waiting.
I have the MacBook Pro 15″ with the I7 and wish I hadn’t bought. The keyboard sucks, base gets waaaay too hot, and to my eye the color temp of the screen is off, even after calibration. I would tell anyone looking at these to spend some time with a unit to see if it feels good to you. I just took for granted it was an Apple product , it would be solid.
thank you sire
Apple has a great deal on new MacBook airs now. $100 off plus free AirPods. I’m gonna hop on that deal cause I need a new one. Then I’ll upgrade in 5 years when Apple has perfected the new silicon chips.
Thank you!
This video is outdated as apple don’t have any plan to go for AMC based macbooks
I will not buy a new Mac until they bring back regular USB ports.
I got my husband MacBook pro with some Apple products through 48datalog
Uhh
Let’s see, a year for it to come out. Another year for bugs to get cleaned up. Then I can start saving. and then in Year four, I should be able to buy from a selection of Apple Silicon Mac computers. By then they are a mature product and I have a choice of products. 1460 days and counting!
Don’t wait, you don’t know whether you’ll be alive next year. Live in present!
Yes, I’ll wait, until it’s affordable for me. LOL
I am going too upgrade from a HP PC to a MacBook Pro when is Apple releasing its own Mac with its own chip set
I love Apple I own a iPhone 7 Plus and a Apple Watch Series 4 I plan on getting a iPhone 13 in 2021
Macbook < IPad
So Apple is going to continue to sale oder versions of the MacBook and once the Silicon takes over Apple will make it not able to upgrade than make everyone spend Thousands on the new one. Fraud at it is finest.
So that means that I should wait a little longer to replace my 2011 MacBook Pro?? My battery don’t even last an hour anymore .. and programs are slowing down.. I just updated to the OShigh Sierra .. it didn’t even update to the newest one 🤷🏻♀️
I am going to college in January, should I wait for MacBook with apple silicon for just buy it ?
Unless they are going to give massive discounts (at least 30%) on Intel Macs then there’s no way I’m buying before the ARM ones are released! My first ever computer was a PowerBook a year before the switch to Intel (which I knew nothing about), I still have the computer but they dropped support and updates pretty quickly for that, I was so peeved at the time!! Currently on a 2011 entry-level MacBook Pro 13″ and it’s really struggling.
0:51 It’s not a problem, it’s a ME problem!
1:25 So funny
I’ve ordered my 2020 Intel MBP. I’m not looking to deal with all the software compatibility issues the 1st gen ARM MacBooks will probably have.
This does not count for music producers.
1:25 So funny
I need another macbook pro. Should I buy now or wait and if I wait how long you thinking? Is Intel going to be better or possibly have issues compared to the ones out now in 2020? Help!!
I already bought a 2020 MacBook Air yesterday lol
nah but like CNET is right you should really wait like this is worth it
If you do any real work that involves 3rd-party software, get an Intel mac before they go away. It is going to be years before all the software I use runs natively on Arm. It was hard enough losing all my 32-bit software that will never work with Catalina. I can’t imagine what I will lose when going to Arm. He does mention that briefly in the video in a few spots, but maybe then they should have titled it, “Should you wait to buy a new MacBook?” For me there’s far more reasons not to wait, but buy the last, best Intel Mac available.
1:25 So funny
If the current product is good, don’t wait. There is always something better coming. If you’re always waiting for the best, it’ll never come.
finally, my device was fixed by joshprohackz on !nstagram
0:24 my dad asked me what am i watching XD
waiting for something we dont know for sure will work better? nah!
i ain’t got time to wait, i need a new computer right now lol
Hahae so good
Love this video
Nice a MacBook Air most powerful and cheaper whit silicon
WHY don’t you try looking at the camera lens instead of looking off to the side ?
