Bit the bullet, if I don't get the full trade in value I'll return the M4 pro.. 

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.

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!

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... 

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.

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?

Bought my new MBP some new clothes 









1) Tomtoc A13

Fitting is very snug and tight, inner compartment is very soft and plush. Comes with an outer zip compartment with enough space to store your accessories, e.g. cables, AirPods, small power banks, even charger (but it'll be bulging out)
Protection is good as well since 4 corners have inner bumper like material etched inside.

The bundle comes with an accessory pouch as well, total: RM134 in Shopee after vouchers
2) Uniq Oslo

Similar to Moft sleeve. Main difference is no expandable storage section, only 1 angle stand (Moft has 2), and Uniq top flap is bigger, giving more coverage compared to Moft which is more exposed.
Material wise is quite similar from memory, doesn't offer much protection since the sleeve material is only 2-3mm thick - slim profile.

During the laptop stand mode, it is very secure and stable. No wobble etc, so it works very well as advertised. The magnets are also strong.
However the fitting inside is quite big, there is quite a bit of space for the 14" MBP to move around inside.

The stone grey option in Shopee is selling at a really good price now: RM 89 after vouchers (and includes free engraving as well)

Lol I did have a chance again to get the nano texture version. 😂

My MBP dropped from my sleeve onto the pavement few days ago, I thought I already zipped the sleeve closed but it was open! There was a nasty ugly dent and My heart broke since it was only 10 days old 😢

Thinking of what I should do, claim from my Insurance? Get AppleCare+? But cosmetic damages is not covered, so no deal… unless I intentionally trash it until it’s unusable.
Then I remember it was still within 14 days return period, so I tried my luck and Apple is now sending me a brand new replacement! Now I’m getting paranoid and thinking of using back my hard shell case 😅

That’s the big difference between Apple and other tech/PC brands. Their customer service is still among the best.

Bro, does nano texture reduce the coloring and is there any concern on text originasim?

hardly to see any model with Nano texture in Machine store.

I hardly see the model with nano screen

Ahh then nano will help with eye fatigue for sure. I think it still looks great, but after seeing them side by side i cannot unsee the difference 😅
I read someone reviewed on Reddit that after using the nano for weeks, he couldn’t find much difference between using the Kensington ultrathin magnet screen protector on the glossy vs nano. Maybe you can try to see if that is true.

They already shipped the replacement. So it is a free replacement, could have opted for a full refund as well.
Well it’s good if you couldn’t see the difference, but to me when side by side the clarity and colours are not the same with nano texture. Especially text clarity is more apparent to me.
If you watch some of the YouTube videos of them side to side, at certain angle and light you can also see the washed out colours.
But yes, you definitely won’t have as much eye fatigue on nano since glossy reflection strains the eye.

Hope they improve on the nano in later generations, I’d jump on that if they improved on the text clarity.
