Apple 2023 MacBook Pro laptop M3 Max chip with 14‑core CPU, 30‑core GPU: 14.2-inch Liquid Retina XDR display, 36GB unified memory, 1TB SSD storage. Works with iPhone/iPad; Space Black

I was hesitant to part from my money for this, as I’ve never owned a Mac before. I took the plunge after seeing all the marketing around the battery life. As a bit of a power user (doing some dev/docker/sysadmin) it made sense to get the Pro model over the Air.I’ve now had the machine a month and I’m blown away by the battery life. It genuinely does last me all day (at least it does for now). It’s a fast little machine and it’s also very efficient - my old Lenovo laptop would get boiling hot, I’ve not even felt this one get warm, even under intense load. The sound quality is excellent too. Highly recommend it so far!

I expect nothing less from Apple. As I know from experience how good Apple products are, because I still have my old 2014 MacBook Pro which still looks as good as new. However it is 10 years old which means its battery life is finally failing, as well as its speakers.Apple has made it painless to move all my paid products onto my new laptop, which has saved me the expense of buying new software. Apple silicon, is super fast and packed with 18Gb unified memory. Although it’s clear I don’t need 18Gb of unified memory, I’m not convinced in buying a new Mac with the same amount of memory as my 10 year old Mac, even if it is unified! It’s was a no brainier to spend an additional £360 for 10Gb more, even if only to future proof my Mac.I purchased the space grey option (Which looks gorgeous) and spread the cost over 5 months, interest free which has become an affordable solution to buying expensive products, (Well done Amazon). What I’m really impressed with is the battery performance. It lasts for days or even weeks with light usage. Compare that with my 4 year old HP top of the range OLED laptop that can only achieve 2hrs of battery life, even when it was new! It even leaks battery life when it’s been shut down, unlike the Apple MacBook. I think it’s highly probable that this laptop could last 20 years or more. I am biased towards Apple laptops, but I honestly believe that this is a great purchase, and I fully recommend this.

having used Mac computers for many years this one live's up to the Apple name. A replacement for an aging 2012 model, the M3 chipset is very fast and very capable and build quality is as you'd expect. Screen great, keyboard and trackpad responsive. 14inch a perfect size and weight for portability vs power. Nicely packaged and great experience of opening up, switching on and getting all set-up.only very minor things - it's black, the power cable is black yet the brick that plugs in the wall is white! and despite USB connectivity now being USB-C, the power cable is USB-C at the plug end but Magsafe on the laptop - seems like Apple continue to find a way to not be USB-C all the way.

Amazing laptop, such a step up from my previous computer. The battery life is superb and tge ease of use is amazing. The appearance is beautiful I have to say and the weight is lovely

I’ve upgraded from Intel MacBook Pro 2017 model.First thing that shocked me is how much more stable is the new OS on Apple Silicone, difference is huge. However it’s not all too great, there ARE bugs and many appliacations still have issues while running on M1,2,3 chips. Please do your research first.What was a pleasant surprise for me was GAMING. I was surprised it can run AAA games, I’ve been playing smaller game recently Besiege. It works great on the highest settings. Photoshop performance is greatly improved comparing to my Intel model, auto select is instant. Safari is super fast, however please note it happened that it crashes sometimes. I’m a software developer so must have for me was Xcode, it compiles code blazing fast. What a pleasant surprise I had when I run Unity Editor, this Mac can handle 3D game development! I wouldn’t recommend for big AAA games, but 3D mobile games or smaller PC ones - no problem. Xcode simulator is not lagging while running my resource dependant game with many sprites.And if course.. ports. Finally we have all required ports on the laptop back again.. HDMI, 3 usb C, card reader, MagSafe charger.What was another pleasant surprise was SCREEN and SOUND. I prefer to watch movies in bed, instead of my 65 inch TV. Picture has a OLED like contract, however it is NOT OLED. Apple software creates magic with zone backlight. HDR content looks great. RESOLUTION is very high, I recommend changing display to “more space” mode to give you more canvas to work with with this resolution. Back to SOUND, bass is great, Spatial Audio on Apple Music actually works great. Sound is deep and clear at the same time. Voice calls are great.One of the down sides is the camera, 1080p really..Luckily you can use your iPhone seamlessly as a camera. It all happens automatically when iPhone is in the horizontal position.Overall I recommend this laptop, but have a look first if this is not an overkill for you if you just browse web and reply to emails, maybe air model will be the right one for you. Please don’t buy 8Gb model, this is a waist.. always go for 18Gb or more RAM. :)You can ask questions in the product and I will attempt to answer them.

First Apple Mac experience. As a 15 years of windows User ,it's quite hard for me to used to it. Packaging was good and delivery as well,So far going good...Edited my review and coming back after three months .It's really works for me. As a Digital marketer I use internet always system is pretty fast for me. I can't lie about BATTERY backup, which is outstanding. And no heating issues.
