Review on 13.3" Apple MacBook Pro 13 Late 2020 2560x1600, Apple M1 3.2 GHz, RAM 16 GB, DDR4, SSD 1 TB, Apple graphics 8-core, macOS, Z11B0004V, space gray by Stanislaw Bieroza ᠌

I've used Windows all my life and was 100% happy with my 14" redmibook with 8 core ryzen 4700u and 2TB SSD. In this review, I mainly compare with him. I didn’t even think about switching to a poppy until I changed my job, where I need to develop for iOS and I can’t do without a poppy. At a new job, they bought me this macbook and for the first time I encountered macos. I thought that Macos differs from Windows no more than most Linux distributions, but everything turned out to be different. Different keyboard layout, different scrolling direction, different hotkeys. I did not expect that Ctrl + C and Ctrl + V might not work somewhere, and in order to get something more familiar, I would have to install a bunch of utilities. In addition, when I began to connect external devices, they became terribly buggy. The wireless mouse started to fall off, the monitor flickered 5 times more than it did before. The replacement with other devices that I had in stock helped. But the font on the external monitor is blurred, apparently you will have to buy a new monitor with a higher resolution. But the device is really cool and its survivability and performance is amazing thanks to the M1 processor. And Rosetta works wonders - games for Intel-Macs fly! I'm still trying to figure out if I can completely switch from my last laptop to a macbook. But I'm afraid that for now I still have to use two computers, which is not very convenient. Hopefully Windows 11 comes out with M1 Mac support and faster x86 emulation on ARM. If I bought a poppy for my money, I would most likely take Air 16/256 + external SSD KingSpec Z3 2 TB. The price of the latter is the same as the price of an additional 256 GB in Macs.
