So when these models came out I was fortunate enough to start a new job, so I rewarded myself by buying the bone stock double binned 14" M1 Pro model, thinking that I was going to end up returning it and custom ordering one I didn't even upgrade the charger Well 3 years later, it's held up incredibly well This thing has been through the ringer: it's been a Unity dev machine, an Unreal 5 internal tools development machine, a video editing machine, and now I do 80 of my game engine's development work (engine AND editor) on this machine I upgraded from a 2018 15" MacBook Pro that thermal throttled if you looked at it funny This machine smoked that, it smoked my trash can Mac Pro, and still continues to smoke my desktop i9 Even with a work provided 16" M3 Max I still don't find myself missing anything on this model Plus battery life has been superb, but sadly i'm now at 88 capacity left with a little over 250 cycles Comment from : @IgnoreSolutions |

You’re right, I initially had the 10-core cpu, 16gb ram, 512 ssd, though switched to 8-core cpu, 32gb ram, 1tb ssd Seems to work much better (for me) Comment from : @marcelforrel |

I do the same export test with my base M2 Pro , but also more complex (4k timeline 5 min from GH5 camera with luts, various effects, transitions, flare, speed ramp, 180 fps, 60fps) in faster encode "computer" (like your) , 237 min With M1 Pro 8-core and 10-core, 255 min So, with base M2 Pro you have better performance of M1 Pro 10-core, at a significantly lower price (as Luke Miani also demonstrated) Comment from : @crisrocchi2722 |
|
So I use a DAW called Reaper I just record vocals with some plug ins and I plan on making vocal cover videos I’m still unsure if I should save money and go with an M1 Pro MBP or get the M2 pro MBP and how much ram to get for either one…anybody have any recommendations??

Great job! Helpful and right to the point! Comment from : @waynehearst317 |
|
That's a great video! Wonderful information and this is what I was looking for Thank you so much 🙏 Comment from : @vinothfelix9514 |
|
Anyone know of a review or metric that talks about using data analysis tools and if upgrading between the 8 core and the 10 core is worth it in those terms? ie I have 1,000,000 brrows of data will I want to throw the 8 core into on coming traffic and get the 10 core Comment from : @lenny95sehs |

I don’t understand the lingo! What is Ben or binned? Comment from : @solidstream13 |
|
great review!! thank you for it, it helped me to make my desition Comment from : @justaskforbobdesign |
|
nice review Comment from : @muhammadafzalghumman7951 |
|
hey, do you plan on making a vid like this for the M2 Pro MacBook Pro as well? I'm really looking forward to that, mainly because of the slower SSD in the 512GB base model I'd like to see the binned M2 Pro 512GB vs the unbinned M2 Pro 1TB Or the binned M2 Pro 512GB vs the same model with 1TB? Thank you tons in advance! Comment from : @JackieFrank |

Does anybody need to save a few seconds from their life by spending several hundred dollars more? Comment from : @Kapiwolf123 |

You forgot to include battery in the test Comment from : @FangOG |
|
Informative video Comment from : @tubeaccount66 |
|
Great video! For those curious he meant MORE tracks is better for the music production/Locig Pro test! Comment from : @cizneerob |
|
Great video, and very well segmented! very Helpful Comment from : @Alejandro_Loor |

You are truly the best on YouTube I appreciate your meticulous tests Comment from : @gundervarinlioglu3448 |

turning down the graphics quality was never an option Comment from : @Jade42435 |
|
WOW Both of them very expensive :( Comment from : @Mruoyleng_badmintonedit |
|
ddamnn I say it not worth it of getting unbin because not much diff and 300$ more expensive Comment from : @Mruoyleng_badmintonedit |
|

What’s the difference in battery life ? Comment from : @aquaman5464 |
|
I think Apple is entirely ridiculous with their unfair money grabbing Comment from : @dubspace1999 |
|
good videobrJust an advice, when u compare similar looking laptops please mark each one of them for easier recognition For eg C8 & C10 next to trackpad Comment from : @2Tubist |
|
Gonna buy 1! Comment from : @onurozkan6899 |
|
The difference in Logic is quite significant I have to say! More than I expected brThat said, I think the binned one will serve me well for music production It is rare to find such a CPU heavy session So I prefer to put the money towards 32GB of RAM to let sampled instruments perform better Comment from : @henrikpetersson3463 |
|
Looking to get one and I thought spending more would be better Thank you for this video and all the other ones that you do Comment from : @MrCp209 |
|
Still watching 2022 Comment from : @Dasith_Nimsi |
|
Wow, your comparisons are great, especially at the end you actually do recommend and say "it is worth it or not worth it", because most people do the "it really depends on you blah blah blah" lol Comment from : @VSL_babyface |
|
Thank you for the testing of the of these machines for those who do not have the correct software! It’s really great Comment from : @audefranks9475 |
|
I'm still not very decided of which one to choose Like i said in other video, I'm a programmer, and I'm tempted to buy the unbinned one, but the battery life is very important to me What about the charge duration of the battery? The difference is very noticiable between the two? Comment from : @alvarofuentes2265 |
|
Hi bro im your pilipino subcriber Comment from : @lazycsp |

Outside of US the difference even higher in the UK currently £400 so thank you for this and for all the hard work you’ve put into this Comment from : @gogogee82 |

What about the battery 🪫 usage on both laptops you didn’t mention that Comment from : @Quraishy |
|
Yes please!!!! Comment from : @ah_moneymaestro |
|
Here's an idea, don't have two computers next to each other when performing benchmarks Comment from : @Robbe1984 |
|
how was the battery performance between binned and the unbinned version, as the unbinned version was using more wattage????? Comment from : @CharanjeevSingh007 |
|
Thanks for all the videos @maxtech Will the M1 Pro soc affect heat / fan noise when using it with external monitors? Will the unbinned one be better (ie cooler temps, lower fan noise) when plugged into a monitor? Comment from : @bowieknife |
|
This was a super helpful video I’m pretty sure I’ll go with the base model! I do music production with logic but I never have more than even 60 tracks running simultaneously Thank you! Comment from : @benlarson8263 |
|
Between the 14'' base model with 32gb RAM/1TB and the 10 Core 16 GPU 16gb RAM/1TB for music production and photo editing witch one will you guys choose? Comment from : @felipec |
|
So basically no normal human being would need more than the base model Comment from : @Catalanskrr |
|
Never won a give away but here goes! Great videos to watch for anyone before buying Comment from : @huneydhaaiminath7559 |
|
Thank you for your videos , you really deserve more subscribers ! Comment from : @itsadambright |
|
Great video… MacBook Pro 14 it is!!! Comment from : @rcadelina |
|
Not worth it to pay 300 more! Always enjoy your show My best choice for M1 Pro base model Comment from : @shafiqytube |
|
I use after effects, photoshop, illustrator, final cut pro and I do not know what model i should get because I have seen people testing the base model of the 14 inch and they say they regretted not upgrading the RAM from 16 gb to 32gb and also I am not sure if i should upgrade the gpu and CPU from the base model SOMEONE HELP ME ( i use mainly aftereffects for animation) Comment from : @saraabaronii |
|
thx for the vid Comment from : @retiredeu |
|
i expected 15, def big difference! Comment from : @Iwonder493 |
|
Hey guys! Great videos Love what you are doing Keep making this great comparisons!! Comment from : @TheYinono |
|
Thanks for this comparison - I am still so torn about which M1 or M2 to purchase, but this was a huge help with my decision Comment from : @DrRichardBoulanger |
|
Quick review 💯🫂 Comment from : @MrMyth-ru1ue |
|
Great video I am about to buy and while i know 16GB ram and M1 Pro are showing very similar results i wonder how much of this is down to developers not having time for optimization before everyone rushes to be the first one out with benchmarks results After Effects for example ran horrible on day one of the release of these laptops, Adobe released an update and it made a big difference When people do benchmarks on day one, obviously not many apps out there that have had a chance to optimize Do you think 16GB ram with Pro 10 core CPU 16GB GPU would be enough if creating proxies for fusion in resolve or doing masking in final cut? Comment from : @TruthReviews |

I’m getting the 14inch MacBook Pro base model but instead of 512gb I’m getting the 1tb Comment from : @saturn5036 |
|

|

Waiting on this M1 Pro 14 in the mail, have been binging your videos, good work! Comment from : @restlessbloom |
|
Binned/unbinned? What do you mean by that? I didn't know the term, so l looked it up and learned the term CAN refer simply to the quality control/inspection process that finds flaws and repurposes sections of the wafer into various types of chips as needed In this sense, all chips are binned—inspected and sorted How are you using the term? Comment from : @stephenmcnutt |
|
Thanks a lot, helped again with the decission! Comment from : @lisahoffmann7450 |
|
If used only on 4k editing, would 16core still get hotter? Comment from : @JN-ml1qw |
|
The problem with binned model is, in my mind, I know it's a less quality chip that's defective in some way that Apple disables some of the cores The M1 Pro is designed with 10-core CPU and 16-core GPU, so it should be Comment from : @ricolasbest6861 |
|
I’m going back and forth between the M2 air and the base MacBook Pro 14…grrrr Comment from : @crowhurd |
|
Great video Comment from : @shanemactavish6820 |
|
Subscribed! Interesting results there Changed my mind on what I need Comment from : @25adbond |
|
Just ordered the base model and This was very reassuring to me Jack Bayne Comment from : @sheilabayne2264 |
|
Thank you, Vadim! Comment from : @gregpantelides1355 |
|
was actually waiting on the m2 MBA to come out went to Best Buy today and saw they had 1 MacBook Pro 14 in stock the base model but the price was 1799! so I picked it up today instead and super excited it was discounted!!! Comment from : @mattdagger1480 |
|
eh if I'm spending all this money on a new laptop, I get not getting the max, don't need it, and don't need the graphics upgrade really since it's so small unless you go to the max, but the cpu upgrade makes sense 20 faster seems pretty worth it Comment from : @solomonjenkins9505 |
|
Hello, just wanted to think you for all the helpful videos you have put out which has helped me decide which one is right for me Keep up the good work 😁 that’s the reason I subscribed a while back Comment from : @MunchkinMoD |
|
I am new to Mac products so it’s really awesome how you make these comparisons Really helps a non tech person like me! Comment from : @lesleycoleman4816 |
|
I originally wanted the full m1 pro for my new 14 inch pro, and after watching this, I saved the money, went with 1tb SSD, and the 96w Power adapter Thanks for the comparison Comment from : @chrispurcell3671 |
|
I appreciate your videos man definitely helping me make a purchasing decision Comment from : @WesleyFranks |
|
For photo editing in Lightroom Will a double binned base model be the one I want to get? I got a budget of about $2000 But if it's going to be so much better, I'll get the nicer one Comment from : @andycohn5768 |
|
Just saved me some more bucks! love it Comment from : @lisama2538 |
|
Did I miss the battery life? You never compared my most important question Comment from : @richrise4065 |

|
Really good Comment from : @immanuel_antony |
|
is 14 inch with 8-core CPU and 14-core GPU with 16GB RAM enough to watch 4K video while opening some youtube tab, and doing some excel or microsoft word at the same time?? I don't do any Final Cut Pro nor Adobe Can some one plzzz give me some advice? I also use double monitors too Comment from : @kyiwintun4253 |
