    Hey, Important question that most do not seem to answer so far.
    Q: Does the i9 run better while or during the editing process? (On Premiere/final cut)
    Is playback jittery especially with 4K??
    What about when you add plug ins etc?? Multi vid layers??
    And finally, Does the i9 run 4K while editing like the 2017 i7 could run and edit 1080p??
    I’m fine with waiting a few extra minutes etc regarding rendering etc, but if you can’t actually edit 4K video and have smooth playback, be able to add solid plugins, and edit multi layers of vid without jitters and or audio drops and all of it what would be the point!
    I just purchased a 2017 i7 2.9 and can still return it for the i9 if you think it’s worth it to do so??! 👍🏼
    Thanks big time for your help!

    If you are investing in an expensive computer like that, you should NEVER eat around them. Even with previous gen models, not a good idea to casually cause the thing that can F up your keyboard. If you have a disposable income, perhaps that is nothing to you, but as for myself, if I had an expensive machine like that, I would make sure to be careful with it. This video irresponsibly highlights and encourages neglecting caution with highly expensive laptops. Just because something clears up an issue doesn't mean that it couldn't come back because you provoke it. It's better to have a company be responsible for hardware malfunction, not you. Also, keyboards aren't the most important thing on a laptop, but they are an important piece of hardware in communicating with the computer.

    • @Robin78
      @Robin78 6 років тому

      Computer is just a tool. Like a hammer or a screwdriver. So if you buy 100$ hammer instead of 5$ one you expect it to be durable and comfortable in use. You shouldn't be scared that "oh my god I have to be gentle with it or the handle will break". But Macbook is the complete opposite of premium tool - fragile and not comfortable in use. Just buy an x1 carbon for that price which is pretty indestructible compared to a macbook. Think different boi

    • @nitsugazemag
      @nitsugazemag 6 років тому +3

      It's not about treating it like some fragile piece of equipment. It can be used as it's meant to, computing, not a plate for your food. Also, it's not a blunt tool either. There's a difference between taking care of an investment and mishandling it because you can. It's called maintenance. Another thing, it may be an expensive computer, but it's still a computer, rugged or not, you should take care of it. Even though it may seem invincible, all computers ware down in time and the components inside aren't invincible either. Think practical and responsible, boi

  •  6 років тому +29

    Advertising. This is an example of the typical Apple language: insane, great, giant... "most people LOVE the butterfly keyboard". Yeah, right. Truth is nobody cares about the keyboard unless it fails, and nobody asked Apple to obsess in making absurdly thinner "pro" laptops that COST MORE than a real pro laptop but look like a museum vase and lack of pro ports like HDMI or a card reader, or have a compromised small battery, or are assembled like a puzzle which makes repairs an expensive nightmare (official or not), and the worst consequence: thermal issues that leads to throttling (best case scenario) or frying the GPU or other internal components in the long term when warranty or Applecare plan have expired. But yeah, MacBook Pros are NOT faulty designed computers, no, if they end up failing the blame is on THE USER who did not know how to use the beautiful museum vase they bought, pushing them to the limit, trying to do professional stuff too much on them 😒

    It’s really messed up that Apple botched up the first butterfly keyboards and is charging people hundreds when they inevitably fail from the most gentle and basic use.
    My spacebar just stopped working after 9 months. I spent $3456.12 on a piece of equipment that failed to be usable after just 9 months, and I treated that thing like my first born. Fortunately I was under the 1-year warrantee but the techs warned me that my keyboard will likely fail once again, and again and it could cost nearly $1000 to fix. Each. Time. What could I do to prevent this I asked? Nothing, they said. It’s just crappy hardware.

    ROFL how am I supposed to LISTEN to the keyboard clicks (which is literally one of the most important parts of this video) when you play the BGM so loud

    I got my Macbook Air 2018 in November of last year, and I immediately started having issues with the keyboard. For some reason, letters T, S, U and spacebar get doubled VERY often, resulting in a much higher number of typos than in any other keyboard I've ever used. I thouught it was a matter of getting used to it, but it's been three months and still the same (I left that double u in "thought" to illustrate the issue). My concern with keyboards was always ergonomic, never functional. I can type without looking, but now I have to watch like a hawk so I can spot typos and address them right then and there.

    Good video but the music in the background is imitating.

    it's rumored that apple is going to remove the keyboard and replace it with a neurotransmitted signaling keyboard where you'll only press the huge surface where the keyboard was before and think of the words you want to input or controls you want (jk please somebody make this it'll be helpful for everyone)

    You can literally slide your fingers across the keyboard and type at the same time
