QUOTE(maxwell91 @ Feb 6 2021, 10:34 PM) Hi, im interested in Mac Mini M1 16gb 256gb ssd configuration. Right now im still confuse whether to go for this or custom pc (ryzen 3600, 1660 super, 512gb ssd, 16gb ram) as the price is roughly the same. In terms of performance, which one will give better performance ? (Handle multitasking, light video editing, some productivity works). How bout life span? Do Mac pc last longer than windows pc in terms of software support? Mac got good 2nd hand market, both in demand and price |

QUOTE(leechunghan @ Feb 25 2021, 08:36 PM) For normal usage browsing and watch video 8/256 is enough to use? Yes.. Definitely... After SSD formatting + base apps, the M1 MBP still got ~200gb of storage |

QUOTE(leechunghan @ Feb 26 2021, 12:26 PM) Also thinking buy Mac want learn how to Edit and Cut Video those extra skill can do self geh vlog, you got use Final Cut Pro? The apps take many space mou? the apps itself do take a few gb though, better to check it through, if you do editing... better go for 16/512... unless you get a nice hub for the mac mini that can integrate nvme drive |

QUOTE(clement5949 @ Jun 12 2021, 08:33 PM) Super dilemma now on whether go for 8gb or 16gb ram 😔 QUOTE(bem69 @ Jun 12 2021, 08:42 PM) Same here. 256 or 512, 8gb or 16gb? 🙂 Fun fact: Apple has been pricing their RAM upgrade the same since the 2012 retina macbook pro, last time was RM600, now RM800 because of exchange rate... |

QUOTE(bem69 @ Jun 24 2021, 11:21 AM) Dang, not sure what I'm doing wrong with Teams. Installed the desktop app and it doesn't load at all  did you install the M1 version of Teams? cuz when download, the browser can detect our OS, but it can't detect the chipset... |

You can check here: https://isapplesiliconready.comNevertheless, it still can be use in M1 Mac, no issue at all. i did install it onto my M1 mac as well, maybe got to launch the words / excel first, then only launch teams |

QUOTE(bem69 @ Jun 25 2021, 08:52 AM) Thanks for the input rickyro & kevinpss. Turns out all I needed to do was just rebooted the mac mini. Even my logitech mx master 3 scrolling now works. Loving this product. Fully migrated from my Macbook Pro 2014 and unfortunately, I found out the battery there is bloated. 😱 yeah... M1 has a bit of stiffed up moment sometimes just like any computer needing restarts occasionally.. i did repair my 2012 rmbp battery 2 years back, used 3rd party battery, the repair was worth it, even though i plugged it in most of the time... |
