    Apple's 2020 base $1299 13" MacBook Pro hasn't changed very much compared to last year, but it is a better deal because it now comes with a 256GB SSD for the same price.
    The 2020 high-end $1799 13" MacBook Pro has changed A LOT! It now packs a 10th-Gen 2.0GHz Intel processor with 16GB of faster RAM and a 512GB SSD!
    There are also some hidden changes that you won't know about unless you look on the inside, which we did! We took off the back covers and took a look at the fans, the speakers, the batteries and more!

      The opposite worse. You end up spending money for cheap tech that you don’t need like a new Raspberry pi every year release or the knock off. Even the expensive ones that go up to 500 because oh it’s only 500. But just one mac every 5-10 years is useful and it never seems to be needed for an upgrade. Just a 10 year old Mac looks old.

Figure the added $400 would be better spent now because it should hold up better in the future with the newer processor, faster memory, larger HD, better graphics, and added fan for cooling.

Power consumption is higher but the bost in performance is very significant, in addition, the independient Radeon pro 5300M card will give you a way better experience and a much higher graphic performance.

    Great review, it makes me question my decision to buy the base model, I like the performance so far for developing web applications, but if I had known the dual fan and better speaker system is only in the high end model I'd probably selected that (still thinking if I should return this one and upgrade)
    I mean for $500 bucks extra you get:
    - 256gb extra storage
    - 8gb extra ram
    - better cpu
    - dual fan setup (= less noisy high rpm fan)
    - better sound system
    - 4 usb-c ports
    and overall a more future proof setup..

      2022 update checking in! I bought the $1799 version back in 2020. This didn’t future proof well at all , after the M-chips came out. The M1 Pro is better than this in every single way, by a huge margin.
      I still like my 2020 Intel MBP - just as long as I don’t think about the 14 inch M1 Pro 😂

    Dude your speaker comparisons! I love it! And thanks to your efforts and quality testing, you can hear that the $1800 MacBook Pro has the improved speakers. I put on my headphones and can easily tell the $1800 one has more bass and a wider range.

      Don’t bother with the i7, performance isn’t noticeable compared to the price youre paying. Get the higher end model as it is and upgrade the RAM if you want but if you want to spend more get the 16”

      13" vs 16" inch with both i7/32GB RAM/1TB SSD is still 320 Euro (470 Euro including Apple Care+) more in The Netherlands including tax. While in my case I don't need the extra GPU and opted for a smaller and more portable 13" device.

    • @MichaelCosta_
      @MichaelCosta_ 4 роки тому +4

      @Seven V I don't agree. You might want a maxed out 13" to be much more portable and light to carry around but to attach to another screen(s) in a home studio setting. I too am interested in whether the 2.3 i7 is worth it over the 2.0 i5.

It does get a bit hot but not enough to lag or stagger. i5 was the big deal breaker. Now I can Zoom, work on presentation, use iPad Pro as 2nd screen and plug more stuff into usb c x4 without having people ask me to mute myself bc my fans are too loud. I just upgraded from base model MacBook Air.

    There's been a lot of Apple hate on the internet about the 2020 MBP refresh. This video is a good counter perspective.
    Max explains that the $1799 model is a WAY better value than a comparably configured 2019 13" MBP, and explains what you get for the extra $200 it takes to buy the $1799 model over a base model with 16gb ram and 512gb SSD.
    People are entitled to their opinions, but sometimes the "hate" makes them not see the value in the new machines and could lead them to make worse purchase decisions for themselves.
    Thanks Max for another great video!

    Great video Max! I had a question regarding the 32GB LPDDR4X of the 13" MBP ram vs the 32GB DDR4 of the 16" MBP. The upgrade from 16GB to 32GB for both is $400, but what's the difference in performance between the two types of RAM. I know LPDDR4 is "low power," but is it 10% slower, 20% slower, etc? I'd love to know.
    Also for the $1800 Macbook Pro, is it worth it to upgrade to the i7, or is that pointless because the laptop will never reach the peak turbo clock speed due to thermal limitations. Thanks :)

    • @iamunknownperiod3355
      @iamunknownperiod3355 4 роки тому +1

      Soul It’s both faster and lower power. But RAM speed should not be a factor in your buying decision. It’s not that significant.

    • @AswanthSelva
      @AswanthSelva 4 роки тому

      @@iamunknownperiod3355 Why do you say that it is not significant?

    • @iamunknownperiod3355
      @iamunknownperiod3355 4 роки тому +1

      For day-to-day tasks, you definitely won’t notice it. For video editing, especially CPU-based rendering, there might be a difference but I really wouldn’t call it significant especially if you’re comparing LPDDR4 and LPDDR4X which is just a minor revision of the DDR4 spec.
      AMD systems, on the other hand, interfaces with the RAM slightly differently and there might be a more pronounced difference but I still wouldn’t call it significant. This is not an AMD system though.
      You might be confused with the frequencies and you might associate it to CPU speed. But please take note that the frequency of RAM dictates how fast data can be moved in and out of the RAM. While CPU frequencies refer to how fast data is processed. There aren’t many workloads that requires that much data exchange between the cache and the RAM, given rhe amount of cache in modern CPUs and how optimized compilers are nowadays.
      Anyway, I realized I should have just given a link to benchmark test of how RAM affects performance of various workloads but there you go, you can just google those if you want.

      I guess the $1800 will only get heat up during extremely heavy load. As you can see the comparisons in the video, under moderate work load, it is easier for the $1300 model to get heat up and higher fan speed. I agree with Max that Apple has aggressively tuned the $1800 model to be able to max out its CPU capabilities when the application software demands so, probably due to its dual fans.
