If you want to choose a laptop with performance, long battery life, and easy to carry, I don't know which one of which brands will come to mind? I'm sure there are a lot of people who think of Macs, and I have several of them. There is an old Intel chip MacBook Pro, but there is a touch bar and Thunderbolt charging port that I like very much, I chose this customized model from the purchase ** at that time, 14999 yuan...
There are also cost-effective artifacts Macmini and MacStudio,The network port is GigabitRJ45,The size can even be stuffed directly into a handbag,My two are M2 Pro chips。
So what about the M3 series, which is the latest CPU on the Mac side? Taking advantage of the early start of the holiday last Christmas, I had a deep experience of the MacBook with M3Pro and M3 Max as the core, one of which I used was borrowed by my colleague who usually didn't use it.
On the whole, the M3 series has two colors, silver and space black, but the M3 configuration of the basic class only has silver and no black version. Fortunately, the appearance is fruity, everyone has been adapting for a long time, and it looks really good, but it is still a fingerprint collector.
And the space gray one is M3 Max,And it seems to be a product of the Mac systemProThere is black,Air series doesn't seem to have any.,I can't remember if it's exactly such a number.。
The charging cable from the C port to Magsafe, the wire is also designed with a braided rope, which is said to be a reincarnation; After going around a few or returning to the original charging port, only I personally still like the Thunderbolt interface, after all, when you don't charge the computer, you can use it together for iPad Pro, or iPhone15 series mobile phones, Android machines, etc
The other IO aspects are: two Thunderbolt USB4, one 35mm, HDMI, SDXC, M3 Pro and above also have a Thunderbolt interface. The transfer speed is up to 40 GB s.
The M3 model supports an external high-definition display; The M3 Pro model supports up to two external HD monitors; The M3 Max model supports up to four external HD displays.
MacBook products still have certain level requirements for external displays,After all, the screen and color of the product have always been at the top level in the notebook。 Extreme dynamic range allows HDR content to be presented at its brightest level, with exceptional contrast between light and dark, with dazzling highlights and dark to deep blacks. And the brightness of SDR content is now up to 20% higher.
Promotion Adaptive Refresh Rate technology automatically adjusts the refresh rate based on the speed at which the content moves on the screen, up to 120Hz. Clips** can also be selected at a fixed refresh rate based on the frame rate of the footage.
For users who shoot in log mode and calibrate the ** picture in the later stage, the screen quality is not high when using the extended screen... After wasting half a day, I found that the tune was a mess, and I guess I went crazy; However, this also says that the expansion screen of MacBook will be relatively high in the cost of selection, and it can be regarded as a sweet burden due to the quality of the notebook screen...
In terms of keys, according to my personal experience with the previous ones, it is recommended to get an external keyboard to use; Personally, it belongs to the use scenario where there will be more codewords, and the individual keys of the keyboard have almost no rebound in about two years.
In terms of performance, it is certain that one generation is stronger than the next. This is also the first time that ray tracing has been added, and the graphics rendering has been accelerated a lot, which is great news for related practitioners, and the shadows and reflections look more realistic when playing games.
There has always been a saying: Mac for work, win for games; However, Apple has been telling everyone since the time of M1 that the MacBook with the new chip can actually play games.
Many reviews of computer content are often tested with two games, Tomb Raider and Resident Evil 4... The effect is indeed okay.,But it's not these games that's popular right now.·· So if you play a lot of games, you really don't need to think about Macbook.
*Macbook has always been the first choice for professional users, and I often mix FCPX and Da Vinci. Put in 4 tracks 4k** drag back and forth without jamming, here is a simple comparison, because the memory size is different, so it is not very accurate; 3 8K 3 minutes and 30 seconds**, M2's macmini was rendered in 38 minutes and 32 seconds, and M3 was exported in 32 minutes and 44 seconds. And the M3 MAX is rendered in 7 minutes and 40 seconds... Cow... Because there is no M3 Pro, the middle gear cannot be measured temporarily, according to what I saw on the Internet, the M2 series and the M3 series of the same gear have limited room for improvement.
In terms of hard disks, there was a slowdown gate incident in the M2 series before, and it was much better when it came to the M3 series.
But it's a question about how to choose the configuration. The standard version of M3 14 inch is 12999 yuan (8+512),For the Pro series8G is really not enough,But every time the memory is doubled, it will add 1500 yuan··· 16 inches starts at 18GB, and the configuration of 18+512 also needs 19999 yuan...
How to say it,Apple's knife method is accurate and annoying,The average user chooses 14 inches on the line,M chip's MacBook battery life is very good,Creators in the field of sound ** are also enough,Chip I personally think M2 chip choice 16+512 and an external hard disk is very good; Although I chose the 16-inch one myself... If it is a budget of more than 1w, the performance of the host is not bad, and the adaptability is wider. In short, the MacBook Pro of the M3 series is good, but it is very unfriendly.
