Not bad price for m2 pro. I’m having a very old Intel mbp.

Just ordered it.. showing delivery 6th to 10th. Not in a hurry.

Didn’t take the nano display?

Ohh big difference, I had the intel i9 2019 MBP before upgrading to the M2 pro.
Not really since I don’t use it outdoors under bright sun much. And the nano from what users reviewed said the blacks are more muted and whites are washed out in comparison.

Yes, my mbp too slow. It’s a i5 1.4ghz 2020. Waited for m4 to buy.

A lot of mixed reviews on that nano display. Let’ see.


But first time buying on apple online store, not so specific date given.

Mine also originally scheduled to be delivered between 6-10 Dec. Just received a notification today that the macbook has been shipped and will arrive on 4th. Yay!

Guess which is the M4P 🫣

Migration using WiFi & USB-C(ethernet?) was slow as hell, quit both times and had to reset the laptop each time. Ended up backing up to time capsule and restoring to the new MBP.

The bigger one looks newer

Mine also 6-10th but latest message is 5th.

lol it's the angle... but you're right.
I was using a case with my old MBP, but I think I'll go naked this time.

Hi guys, any recommendations on the 14" pro casing and keyboard cover?

I wouldn't recommend keyboard cover unless you take it out each time after use and closing the lid.
As for casing, I had Incase Dots for my previous MBP and it was better than Uniq & some cheaper generic transparent case from Shopee. But ofc with casing there is always a small chance for:
1) Hinge getting a bit looser (not as tight as before)
2) Warping/bent lid or even breaking screen if it is not well made/fit


On a side note, my trade in was successful!! Full trade in value! Despite having a small scratch on the body, and small needle like holes on the screen...
Good to see Malaysia Apple trade in is more laxed compared to overseas from what I've read on reddit

yes, with keyboard cover on if dun take out after use and just close the lid, it will leave marks/stains on the display that are very difficult or unable to remove later.

just received MBP 14, M4 1TB with nano texture screeen.
I must say it looks amazing without affecting much screen quality, in fact i feel eyes more comfortable looking at nano texture screen compared to MBA M1.

I didnt use migration assistant because everything i keep on icloud, so i just wait them to be resync back, and i only use a few apps where i can just redownload from apps store. Nothing much to transfer

Order date : 30/11/24

Treat your screen with more care, with nano texture it is more scratch prone than normal glossy glass

You can get Apple's super expensive micro fibre cloth specially for their nano texture, but I think any good micro fibre cloth works fine.

Apple actually kind enough to include 1 micro fibre cloth for free in the box.
Thanks for the advice.
normally i use alcohol wipes, not sure if it will harm nano texture

Oh wow that's great, RM99 worth. Probably included in the Nano price. I also bought the cloth last year, really good quality.
I used the Zeiss alcohol lens wipes a few times on my previous MBP as well. Didn't have any issues but noticed a discolouration mark before I traded it in. Don't think it was the wipes problem though, so not sure where it came from...

Some Apple rumors say iPhone line will get nano coating.

I got my mbp m4 today too. Apple system kept the 6-10th timeline. So confusing.. email shows 6th, then suddenly deliver today.

So how best to migrate from old to new mbp? First timer here…

I’m more interested to transfer iTunes music files only.

If you don’t have thunderbolt cable, the fastest is to backup Time Machine to SSD and restore in the new MBP.
WiFi & normal USB-C(Ethernet) is damn slow.

It’s not the same as rm99 cloth. It’s more rectangle shape and thinner.

How is this so slow? iPhone peer to peer transfer should at least work the same for MacBook pro.... guess not.

hmmm the nano display is good... if nobody share the "cons" of it... dont realise actually.. haha

Ohh I wouldn't mind a thinner version as well, the retail one is quite thick!


Hahah maybe it'll speed up after a while? But using SSD backup to restore was much faster. Which did you end up using?
