I am one hundred percent satisfied with the purchase, I recommend this product to everyone.

I have been working with poppies on and off for the better part of a decade. I thought I'd give m1 pro a shot, and I ended up loving it. The pace at which projects are compiled is far quicker, and it is quite challenging to load the required percentage in order to hear the coolers. However, the same cannot be said about the graphics. Even with 16 cores, these computers still overheat when you run an application that requires graphics to function in their native resolution. An illustration of Diablo 3 (2022) would be the ability to fry cutlets while running at maximum speeds in native resolution on a laptop. 16 gigabytes of memory is the most that's required for work, but because it's not hard to find a replacement, if I'd known in advance, I would have taken 32 gigabytes. In general, the laptop is great for development since it is silent, it stays cool, it is quick, and it has exceptional autonomy. An attractive aluminum casing, a guarantee of software support for approximately 8 years (based on previous Macs), and an excellent display. There is nothing that you are missing in it. The fact that this is not a compromise solution (in terms of performance) like previous MacBooks made me really happy. All of my job duties, which include the development of software, are completed extremely quickly (quicker than on my iMac 2022). If, on the other hand, you do not require the Apple ecosystem for any given work, there are a large number of alternatives available for the same price. You are aware that there is a selection available for a quarter of a million dollars' worth of goods and services. Even while this remains a problem with games, it appears that support for DX12 will be added to crossOver in the near future.

Pros
  • a speed advantage when using native software - the quality of the build - the assistance offered by the software - the touchpad - the screen - the audio - the autonomy
Cons
  • - a black keyboard backdrop, and everything melds together into a black mess - the letters for ru and eng on the keyboard are backwards, and it is unclear why this was suddenly done. - the device has a minimum of 16 gigabytes of internal memory, which is the bare minimum required for proper operation. - the device has a stuck hdmi 2 port; it would be preferable if they made another usb-c port instead.
