QUOTE(dikae @ Nov 16 2021, 10:24 AM) Nice bro, I'm eyeing at the 14" for portability and this year's 14/16 has smaller gaps compared to previous models.. I think the 16 inch is still portable enough, had the Intel i9 one previously and I carried it everyday to work. This time just gonna use it stationary on my desk without a monitor so 16 inch makes more sense than a 14. QUOTE(vostroxe @ Nov 16 2021, 10:44 AM) haha. we are the same. Already decided to go for 16. But still torn 16GB or 32GB. I use it for high resolution (61MP) photo editing. Nice, won’t go wrong with 16 or 32GB honestly. I don’t think I will be able to fully maximize the use case of a Macbook Pro but I’m just going for that Mini LED screen and new chassis. |

Seems like it’s been 4 weeks since the announcement, still no sound from Apple Malaysia and the retailers.
Daunting wait begins |

Apple did say they support High Impedance Headphones with the 3.5mm jack, wonder if its powerful enough to support 250ohm headphones

Looking at the colors, might be getting the Silver one for a change. Over the years been on #TeamSpaceGray , will do a different shade this time.

QUOTE(dikae @ Nov 20 2021, 06:26 PM) Been hearing many times that the silver has a ‘magical’ feel to it on the new MacBook design, which only can tell in person…so I’m waiting to see what magical feel it is Interesting. Waiting for Machines / Switch to launch it (hopefully next week) so I can get my hands on it. |

QUOTE(dikae @ Nov 22 2021, 07:55 PM) Yea first batch base model was 1-3 days, now 2-3 weeks, soon 5-6 weeks…can’t imagine customer units will take how long, now custom ram already take 1-2 months, later might take 2-3 months Yeah man, I'm just getting the base 1TB version - any additional variants will lose value in the second-hand market. Do share your poison once you've gotten it |

Hence why casings are never good option for laptops, regardless if its Macbooks or a Windows Laptop.
The heat alone will not be dissipated well, and under heavy loads will further stress this. If you want protection, a skin is your best option. Otherwise, a pouch / bag is your best friend. I will never recommend anyone to use a casing for their laptops, ever. |

QUOTE(dikae @ Nov 23 2021, 01:59 PM) most likely tomorrow then 16’ 1TB variant. Nice! share pics! woahhh nice bro, PO from machines can get earlier than apple store? which variant and colour you pick? Should be sufficient for my usage la since I’m no creator or a creative person. Yeah based on my experience with Machines, usually will get it by Friday / Saturday latest.

Lol the 1TB variant of the 16 already sold out - means they only have very limited units.

QUOTE(yisien @ Nov 23 2021, 02:19 PM) UPS tracking not updated one right? Apple told me it is out for delivery but the tracking not shown in the UPS website. Yeah its not a real time update, but once you get the notification from Apple then its accurate. QUOTE(dikae @ Nov 23 2021, 02:36 PM) Nice bro!! good choice…I was so sure to go with 14” until I compare with the 16 2019, and I know I need the 16” (going to enjoy the superb display + ProMotion (after seeing the difference between iPhones 12Pm to 13PM) now im looking forward to this..If not creator or coder then this machine will be hell of a superb one (even if you are creator it’s superb) Friday / Saturday is a wishful thinking la, but based on my experience should be around that timing. Friday/Saturday is soon! Meanwhile can hunt for sleeve/bags etc if you don’t already have one Thanks Yeap I bet they only have 2 if not 1 kept for batch 1, next batch will be long from now Yea sometimes system stuck or stop updating and people get surprise delivery, especially from UPS and DHL Most probably will get a sleeve, but not many available now. |

QUOTE(dikae @ Nov 23 2021, 02:48 PM) Haha if you are not in urgent rush then no issue la, still going to get it within a week anyways Yeah, I’m actually going outstation tomorrow until Friday, so no rush for me. can buy sleeves for 16", there are plenty out there.. was at lowyat plaza earlier and they have so many types.. targus, uniq etc etc..anyway getting a sleeve is a wise choice.. no need a bag coz the gigantic battery bank is enough to last you full day if not more.. even if you run heavy tasks you should be getting 10 hours of use easily.. Will probably wait out for Nomad to bring in the new cases for the 16’. Yes, the 10-11hours battery is the main deciding factor for me too, compared to my current Razer Blade - a paltry 2 hours average lol! |

QUOTE(tehoice @ Nov 23 2021, 03:39 PM) Congratulations on your new machine guys~! Enjoiceeee! 1) Color Accuracy. I use Lightroom / Photoshop.By the way, can i ask if you guys are using it as a tool to make money? like being a youtuber/content creator etc etc? Why i'm asking this is, because i am using a macbook only for entertainment purposes, watching youtube/netflix/surfing/light gaming, etc etc. I have my office laptop to work on extensive excel/word documents. So I have hard time justifying paying like up to 5 figure for an entertainment laptop to be honest. 2) Ports. 3) Screen estate 4) Pro Motion - I’m downgrading from a 240hz/165hz to 120hz adaptive display, its the least I can do for my sacrifice. 5) Better thermals The Pros are not for everyone, its for the hardcore / enthusiast only - most people are fine with the Air or Base M1. Just like cars - you have a car for enthusiast, you have a car for the functional people. |
