I would fasho like I said the newer hardware isn't as reliable as their older models so you dont wanna be out 3k if something is messed

Bruv they finally switched the keyboards for this one. The one they have for the 13 inch is the worst keyboard I’ve ever seen.

Op, just wait for the new generation of the 13 inch

Bought it for myself for Christmas

ight OP u copped?

this thing is a monstrous powerhouse but hope everyone has an extinguisher ready considering how they packed an i9 into that chassis lmao

ngl im off macbooks after my one dies out

s*** is ass now lol

Wanted to update y’all that I went against buying it and just spent like 1k+ on audio equipment for making. Speakers, headphones, mic, audio interface, stands

dope

what part of that costed 1k tho the mic / interface?

when the speakers come in and figure out my desk thing ima go to guitar center and buy some isoacoustic iso-155 studio monitor stands

thats pretty dope actually

gl on the music bro

see my posts above

decided to buy a lot of audio stuff instead.

perhaps next year. been hearing about them intel 10th gen chips

specs?

2.3GHz 8-core 9th-generation Intel Core i9 processor
Turbo Boost up to 4.8GHz
AMD Radeon Pro 5500M with 4GB of GDDR6 memory
16GB 2666MHz DDR4 memory
1TB SSD storage

I just went with the baseline of what was offered on the $2,800 one. I don't do anything too crazy on it so that's more than enough for me.

I was coming from a relatively old model so it's a pretty huge and noticeable upgrade but if you have anything that's 2016 or newer, you can almost definitely wait.

Bought this joint and the XDR monitor about two weeks ago. I do design work and mess around with music so I have Photoshop, Figma, Illustrator, Slack, Xcode, Android Studios, Logic Pro running all day everyday

what specs does your have?

and the xdr monitor?

you must be making some good money

I got the 64gb ram with the 4 TB storage. Most professional photographers and videographers spend $50,000+ for their equipment so the MBP and XDR setup is nothing in comparison to that. But this was my entire month's salary all on the credit card

holy f***

im sure its a great investment tho. time is literally money

Wait b did i see that wrong?

Why u got two headphones but only one speaker?

Hold up

I forgot to get a pair of speakers

My dumbass thought they came in a pair

I got two headphones cause one is open and one is closed ear

Edit: I went ahead and ordered another speaker and this time they had a f***ing $100+ coupon to use and it came out cheaper than what I paid for the other one although it wasn’t on sale anymore and back to regular pricing (199 vs 119)

Ayo u really got one speaker

fix that quick b

I like it tho, got massive respect for JBL

1tb ssd

Niggas itt saying buy a windows laptop.

Windows is so bad. They had to add Linux subsystem because it’s so garbage and people wanted more from it. Not to mention the forced updates. BIG KEEP

i have a 2016 15 inch but it’s been through hell and doesn’t have much life left in it so i’m getting ready to drop 3k

what u got?
