"Battery life over thiness" absolutely
Yep
Beautiful Conversation And, just as importantly, a keyboard that isn’t ruined by everyday dust over thinness.
Facts! It’s insane that these Alienware laptops are thicc as f but the batteries are trash (from what I’ve seen, don’t own one)
Yes! Technology should get out of your way. Technology should adapt to your lifestyle, not the other way around. A thinner, lighter laptop takes a little bit of load off your shoulders and maybe lets you stuff an extra T-shirt into your carry-on. But would you rather bring that extra T-shirt than have your laptop available and powered-up when you need it most?
When I can't have my cake and eat it too, I'd rather just eat it. That's what it's for.
It makes me so happy that they stuffed this thing with the biggest battery I can legally bring on a plane.
Tech reviewers "How does this 2 days old piece of tech hold up today?"
lol
So true!
Pretty much
Yeah they run out of ideas videos so they have to do stupid shit
Pe tri in their defense, you can’t exactly give a proper “first impression” on a piece of sophisticated tech until you’ve actually used it for a few weeks. i don’t think video in particular is really a “hows it holding up” video as much as it’s a first impression video.
3:28 “My 2015-inch Macbook Pro...” that’s a pretty big Macbook
maybe a Mac-wall or Mac-sky Pro...
MacBook Pro Max
I agree with you. I love and adore the touch bar as well. I think most people who say they hate it say that out of conformity. Anyways...AWESOME review. 🙌
Butterfly keyboards came to MacBook Pro in 2016. Not 2015. The only MacBook to have butterfly keys in 2015 was the 12” MacBook.
I'm glad someone said this. Absolutely right!
I think he's aware, but he means like when the Butterfly keyboard itself was introduced, which was in 2015, regardless if they came in the MBP or 12" Macbook
@@AllgoodthingsTv Me too!
Oh no did he get it wrong? I appreciate he said the wrong thing but common he is only human we get things wrong all the time
Cool bro stfu
Uac: I've been using the 16 inch MacBook Pro for a month now
Mkbhd: Ha, Noob
MKBHD has been using it for 3 years now lol
TackeldLemur 2 it has not been out for 3 years lol
I would like to see a macbook that is actually affordable. Maybe 500 to 600 would be nice.
Francisco godinez Not meant to be mean or so but on which earth are you living on that you would get a laptop by apple for under 1k ? Lol
I think the MacBook Air is pretty affordable
Soooooo your point?
Anyone looking for the wallpaper, I got you covered. Search for "Constructed XIII" and click the first link.

He’s using a lens with a fast aperture (1.8, 1.4, 2.8) and the lens looks like it’s more on the telephoto side maybe a 50mm 1.8. Which is giving that nice pop.

You are an average consumer because you dont have The Mac Pro (2019).
Edit: Thanks for the like. 😁😁😁
haha, good one.
He is getting it lmao it hasn’t arrived
aaand its gone
Just ordered mine I’ve been using 13” MacBooks for years this will be a big change for me I’m excited
Prod. By L.Dre was 13” enough or you definitely needed more screen? I’ll be buying a Mac soon for the first time so unsure of what size to get.
r0mediddy as far as size it was definitely good enough. I’m only upgrading to this 16” for the specs and improvements but the bigger screen is a plus
When you title the video as “one month later”, I expect to see things that you notice after a month. Instead, I wasted 5 minutes watching things that I already know from a month ago.
Jerry Lui Exactly. I’m mad now
I am literary livid. I’m Shaking in anger.
Thank you for saving me 10 minutes!

Ordered it. THE SOUND IS LIFE CHANGING. I've never had a laptop sound this great. The bass is beautiful. I hear so many more nuances. I did expect the battery life to be longer though.
Bro I ain't getting for Christmas. But I was wondering and hoping you can do a massive Christmas unboxing. Just saying 🎄🎁🍿☕
I’m still using my 2013 MBP and having no issues. They’re an awesome machine.
Upgrading my macbook pro today. Starting my Birthday off on the right foot!
Never thought I’d do it but I just bought my first MacBook Pro yesterday and I’m unboxing it today. Hearing all these good things about it got me excited
Man I haven't watched one of your videos in about a year or so and they looked fine before but your videos look and sound so much more professional now...it looks and sounds better than an actual tv show....
Had my 16 inch MacBook Pro for a month...I always loved my 2014 MacBook Pro and then got a 2016 that was just OK (because they keyboard sucks).....but this 2019 fixes all that...gives me the keyboard of the old school Macs.
Is your laptop also very hot on the top ?
bontesa nope.
The best thing about the Touch Bar that nobody talks about is if you get an unskipable ad on UA-cam you can drag the slider to the end of the video using the touch bar and it’ll skip the video. Whereas normally if you tried to do that it won’t let you fast forward the video to the end.
I’m going to college for music in the fall, and I just bought this bad boy, haven’t used a macbook since the macbook airs we used to get in middle school. I’m so excited for this to be my daily driver from everything from entertainment to video editing to music production, it’s seriously an unreal level of power and versatility.
Shiny impidimp in Pokémon Sword and Shield definitely passes the UAC vibe check
I still have the 2015 13 inch MacBook Pro. Definitely looking to upgrade to the 16 inch model this year.

ima245 this comment is underrated
I wonder how he gets so much fame, guess It's pure luck :D
What camera/lens did you shoot this with. Looks amazing!
0:41 When you start talking in third-person.
I still have my 2010 MBP and it still works. Beast of a machine with my 2GB of RAM.
Same but I updated mine to a 8GB ram.
But I won’t lie. I do want this and I am ready for a new MBP to start off the next decade.
Bruhhhhhhh. OUT .... STANDING break down.
OUTSTANDING video!!!
Keep em comin!!!
UAC must be the most humble rich guy on UA-cam. _Period_
The butterfly keyboard was originally introduced in 2015 with the 12 inch MacBook. The 2015 MacBook Pro still had the original scissor switch mechanism that was so loved by consumers. Then with the new generation of MacBook pros in 2016 that’s when they introduced the butterfly switch to the pro line of MacBooks 👍.
I've never understood why people never liked the touch bar... I'll admit that it goes unused most of the time, but it's really handy when the need arises.
Hated the ESC being part of the touch bar, this is so much better
As someone who uses a gopro hero 8, a dslr and a compact camera. I can say that its just easier to plug it in directly then keep switching sd cards...what a bother to keep opening your devices to get to the sd card instead of just plugging usb-c in. For people who say if you photograph a wedding you need a lot of storage, my sd cards are all 1TB and you won't fill it unless you have 15 batteries
Am I the only one that found this devoid of useful information. Vague references like you can use it for hours and hours for standard usage and less if you do video editing is meaningless. Give some real world stats!
i just came here for his wallpaper, can anyone help ?
I was wondering the same thing lmao
@@garrettpriddy6957 search "constructed XIII" should be the first one
Tech reviewers should think about Pros outside video or content creators. Developers, Architects and design creators make use of these devices and software that really need the performance of a MacBook pro.

why you type like that
I thought the exact same!! It’s actually cringey watching that...
If product testers type like that, it would actually explain a lot about modern laptop keyboards...
😅
Cmon bruh. Don’t do us people, who type the same way, like that🤣🤣🤣
Hello people of UA-cam
Love your tech vid keep making more and keep the amazing energy u are my idol
Actually, it was the 2015 MacBook that introduced the butterfly switches and the dongle life with the Thunderbolt 3 USB-C. The Mid-2015 MacBook Pro still had scissor switches, they put butterfly ones in the 2016 one.
I actually just purchased this computer as a gift and I have to say that it has been the best purchase I have ever made. I was using a 2016 MacBook Pro (the base model) which I love but it wasn’t able to keep up when editing photos. I mean it did it’s job but it would lag a bit. I decided to try this new 16” MacBook and wow what a difference!! Btw the speakers are ridiculous, best speakers I have heard on a laptop so far. If your thinking twice about it, don’t. Yes, the price is high but it’s totally worth it.
Is this the base model or did you customize it, more RAM, etc?
Channel is called average consumer: “...but when I want to throw 8k RED raw footage at it...”
Hello , I have a question about battery maintenance in the long term.
I almost always keep my Mac connected to a power source in order to prevent the battery from draining and thereby keeping the battery charge count down ,
I assume doing this will over the years take the count longer to reach 1000 charges, which is the life of the battery.
Or on the other hand am I actually harming the battery by keep it on charge mostly and its better to use the battery in a more organic and natural cycle ?
Apologies for the confusing question.
what is the best way to get the most out of battery life ?
I think if Apple gave the touch bar the same haptic feedback as the trackpad, a lot more people would like it. Might just be me though...
I'm wondering if manufacturers sticking to 720p webcams is because they're trying to cover a large range of up speeds people may encounter, without having to do any down sizing. 1080p at 60fps probably needs a good 5mbps up speed. Not everyone has that.
Recently got the 16” inch Macbook Pro but I’m still using my 2013 13” Macbook Pro for lighter tasks. So far 7 year mileage out of a £1400 computer which works out £16 a month. This is the real value for money, you really can’t say the same about PC based laptops!
🔥"This is better than UA-cam rewind" 🔥Thanks for this awesome review --> Looking forward to watching your next tech review
Loving my New MacBook Pro 16IN! Just got it less then 24hrs ago! So excited to start running it through it's paces, very impressed so far! Upgraded from (2012 Retina display) Which I believe was the last MacBook that was worth calling an Upgrade! THIS COMPUTER IS AMAZING!!! Can't wait to do my photo editing!!!
My 2014 Macbook is still hooked up to a 43 inch curved monitor and still works fine for browsing etc. I am in the process of building a PC mind for more intensive tasks.
Thank you for your honest review. Mines will be here Monday.
I don't understand these types of video because its been a month...its still going to be great it barely aged.
100% agree with the battery life/size>>>>thin form factor
Great review as always, i love the way you shoot your video with the slight burr background, just picked up the 16 inch pro and love it, confirm what you said
One thing Judner you forgot about when travelling, having thunderbolts on the MacBook Pro you can easily connect external GPUs for the extra power.
You do have access to those shortcuts without the touchbar. There's almost always a key combination you can use that will also be faster, since you're not looking down.
If you need an SD card slot just get an adapter than has that along with micro SD, display out, power pass through, more USB 3.1s etc etc
Absolutely the best review of this device that I’ve watched. Thank you so very much!
The butterfly keyboard was introduced on the 2015 12" MacBook, however, did not come to the MacBook Pro segment of the lineup until 2016.
Using it rn , the speakers are insane, screen's gorgeous. I have issues with Wifi connectivity on my device. anyone else has the same problem?
I bought this computer, upgraded as F. After a week, it would blast the fan and restart itself before fully powering up. Tech support determined that it needs to be looked at by a technician but coordinating service appointments during a pandemic, let alone being without it for a while, is not the experience I signed up for when I bought a $5000+ computer. Returned for refund, prob gonna get a Windows option that doesn't have to travel from China to get to me.
Which of the following would you recommend for a daily work laptop? These are the options that my work currently offers.
MacBook Pro 16’’
• 2.6GHz 6-core 9th-generation Intel Core i7 processor
• Turbo Boost up to 4.5GHz
• AMD Radeon Pro 5300M with 4GB of GDDR6 memory
• 16GB of 2666MHz DDR4 memory
• 512GB of SSD storage¹
• 16-inch Retina display with True Tone
• Four Thunderbolt 3 ports
• Space Grey
Or
Dell 7540 Precision Laptop
• Intel Core Processor i7-9750H (6 Core, 12M Cache, 2.60GHz up to 4.5GHz Turbo, 45W)
• Graphics card - Radeon Pro WX 3200 w/4GB GDDR5
• Memory - 16GB, 2X8G, DDR4 2666MHz Non-ECC Memory
• Hard Drive - M.2 256GB PCIe NVMe Class 40 Solid State Drive
What’s the perfect configuration for video editing?
Luke miani Made a video where he shows that the base model is enough for everything
The more expensive model 32GB (if you have enough to splurge bc it’ll help), and the higher end graphics card 5500M.
Why all laptop reviewers think that the only heavy task user can do is video/photo editing? Only they do it, person watching review doesn’t care about video editing.
I have to agree on the SD card. That is the one slot I really wish new MacBooks had. I replaced my old 13" MBP with a new 2019 13", and I really miss being able to just pop the SD card out of my Canon 5DM4 and into the MBP.
Plus having a dongle sticking out of it with an external card reader just looks so awful aesthetically
Well ... you were halfway right. Apple introduced the butterflys in the 12 inch Macbook (non-pro) in 2015. They started putting it in the Pros in 2016.
I have a MBP 16 (base model) and now I wish I can return it. It has very serious thermal issues. The computer would frequently freeze due to overheating, sometimes even right after it boots up with no apps running in the background. The CPU load would go up to 100% easily because of overheating, and the fans would run at full speed. Even browsing the web would be sluggish. In fact a lot of times it is even underperforming my 2018 13" macbook pro. I did some research online and realized that this is actually a very common issue among all macbook pro 16 users. I know some people really love this macbook but I just want to tell people my experience so they know the risks before deciding to buy it. Don't base your entire buying decision on these UA-cam review videos. These videos are great but they mostly serve the purpose of entertainment. Instead do some thorough research on sites such as Apple's support forum and see what actual issues and frustrations other users are experiencing.
It’s the bass! There’s so much I seriously thought something was wrong with my computer.
Yooo, what camera are you using rn? Video is crisp
2015 MacBook Pros do not have the butterfly keyboard. I have one that I use for everything and it works amazingly well still.
Can't wait for the keyboard to go over to the other MacBook models. I have a late top of the line MacBook Pro 15" and I LOVE the keyboard, and it's still going strong.. even have my 2008 original aluminium 13" and it still works....and it faster than the laptop I use at work... which I might just bring in..to actually get work done...
The 4 gigs for graphics memory is what's likely limiting your performance for 8k raw
my 2013 mbp still runs as if its brand new aside from the battery itself which i can just replace.
This is a gorgeous video the picture looks awesome in 4K
Hey so we all know that Apple is hopefully working it’s way up to touch screen but is there any accessories out there like a touch bar add onto your laptop to make it touch screen that you could look into and review for us?
The macbook's display is not pressure sensitive, so unless u somehow mod it yourself and write codes for it, which is very hard since apple doesn't like people tinkering with their software and hardware, there's no other way
And apple has said that they're not interested in touch screen laptops
And old unbox therapy had something that can turn mac display touch
Touch screen is likely never happening. The iPads will replace the MacBooks before money Apple lets a touch screen happen
Got it for over a week and plan to return it tomorrow. It's great overall but just too damn big for me to run around writing essay with it LMAO
Clarity lmao. Did you return it? I’m thinking of going with either the 13 or 16”. But I’m torn between portability but also screen real estate.
@@r0mediddy yes. I'm looking to get the 13 inch but that keyboard is a huge, huge turnoff for me since I type a lot. I heard Dell is releasing a new XPS 13 and it seems pretty nice, I might give it a shot.
JPavilion2 let me know if you think the 16 inch is too big. Especially the feeling of the distance from the edge of the laptop to where the keys begin (palm rest area).
@JPavilion2 Good for you. You'll love it I'm sure.
My macbook 16-inch has serious overheating problems, like many other users. Google it. My old 2015 Macbook had no issues at all when using the same apps. I am a Mac user for many years.
I tried the new 16 inch macbook in a store. For me it feels too big and bulky. How do you feel about?
I have a mid 2014...that my kid has abused. Rubbed crap in the speaker holes, messed up the touchbar, the keys don't respond as well- and it is still a good machine. That said, I'm plunking down the cash to get the 16 inch and I swear if my kid so much as looks at it, she is in time-out until she turns 18.
Not for people from developing countries. In the Europe or the US, a macbook pro may cost a person 120 to 150 hrs of work but here in India its 6 to 8 months of salary. Thats huge....!!!
In 2015, the 15” MBP had the good keyboard. Fire whoever just gave you advice.
My boy out here watching Fire Force 🔥 he knows what's up
Enjoyed your outlook - would like to see the comparison between the latest IPad Pro and MB Pro, and which is better. Thanks.
I’ve got a ‘17 MacBook Pro 13 inch it is great except for heat issues
That's the worst model
It was 2016 Macbook pro, they introduced butterfly switches.
Hey folks it’s uraverageconsumer here with the best content.
Shoutout that Critch post at 6:32 lmao
My MacBook Pro 15inch from 2011 died recently now I’m here looking into new MacBooks 😭
Nice video!!!
Could i get your advices? I don’t do photo or video editing but i often do research, assignments, PowerPoint...etc, do you think 2019 Mac Pro 128gb is enough?
I am using my iPhone 11 Pro Max to film and my 2017 iPad Pro to shoot and edit all my UA-cam vids. I think next year this laptop (or the next model) will be a good upgrade.
What is the wallpaper called that you have on the 16 inch when you first show it?
Constructed XIII
Thanks
how much heat do you feel when it's sitting on your lap?
I am getting the new 16 MacBook Pro. But I am on a budget and can't upgrade any of the specs. I don't have the additional money for that. Are the 16GB of Ram enough and how long will it run smoothly for me? How long can I use it for realistically? Thank you :)
Yes
16gb is more than enough, my PC with 8gb doing just fine with everything. Editing video (1080p), web browsing, some gaming here and there 8gb still hold up pretty nice. The only concern here the cpu, i7 is pretty neat, if you don't use your macbook for heavy workflow, you will do just fine with i7. But if you really need the horse power, go with the i9. You said you was on budget but still need a very power full laptop, i recommend you to go with windows laptop instead
I bought the base model and was a bit worried about whether there was enough ram. I've had a couple of weeks editing my projects on it and pleased to say it's been perfectly fine.
The ram management has been excellent and because OSX uses less ram than Windows, I've always had a bit of ram spare when editing and exporting videos which is usually a ram hog.
Hope that helps
Do you know that it’s cheaper if you buy it “for college” from Apple? Everything drops a pretty substantial amount. Just scroll to the bottom of the Apple store and click “shop for college”
Given that the 13 inch MacBook Pro and the iMac and Mac mini base models still come with 8 gb I’d guess Apple doesn’t plan to make even that obsolete anytime soon.
The most is 5 yrs you can use that very expensive machine because apple will consider it "vintage" and stop repairing it. Apple is greediest company in this planet!
It’s crazy how far you’ve come, I remember subscribing to you wayyy back in 2014 after watching your beats solo review, back when u had around 45k subscribers.
It would be great if you could link the wallpapers on both the macbooks!! They are really awesome. I would love to have them.
I even have a hard time to upgrade my base model late 2013 retina 15 inch with a more specced out 16 inch 2020 model.
I'm really looking for a reason here. I code, edit 1080p content sometimes and watch a shitload of YT videos/series/movies.
Screen of this one still blows any other regular laptop out of the water though and I still got the magsafe charger :)
Only major complaint I got here is that 256GB SSD (which I can still upgrade but also costs some money) is a bit small but on the other hand forces me not to fill this thing up rather than storing my important files on my home servers. 8Gb of RAM is maybe also worth to be upgraded for or the fact I don't have a dedicated GPU.
