that is annoying about this tile of charger is that the whole power brick plugs directly into the wall and it means that you might not be able to use the outlets that are around it now it is possible to get an extra cable that goes on here but it's not included in the box and like Andy do you know anyone that's done that yeah they used to include it in the Box they don't anymore In fairness Andy brought me this cable right here and it is just a standard Connection in this but uh that looks kind of terrible it does work all right let's have a look at how much these gentlemen weigh here's the 14 inch three and a half pounds 16 inch is 4.8 pounds I honestly thought that it was more than that but if we compare that to how's the XPS 15 I think that's right around the same 4.3 so that is going to be noticeable old 14 inch 3.5 and finally representing thin and lights we have the HP dragonfly 2.8 pounds so that's way less weight and also very expensive and not very powerful have a gander at the i o here so on the 14 inch we have headphone microphone combo two Thunderbolts magsafe charger right on the other side we have HDMI it's now HDMI 2.1 thank you that was very necessary Apple support for external displays terrible we also have another Thunderbolt 4 and a full-size SD card reader man I absolutely love that 16 inch is basically the same unsurprisingly the build quality is exceptional we can push pretty hard on it here barely any Flex anywhere like I'm really giving her on the keyboard there's like a tiny bit of deflection it's fine same with the 16 inch I don't even have to touch it but you all know that Apple makes very well made products oh now one thing that really really annoys me about these is the way that you open it there's a little indent right here which means that you naturally are going to open it right there in doing that every single time that you open it you put a fingerprint right over your webcam which means that every single time that I go on a video call it looks like that there's Vaseline all over because I've been fingerprinting it every single time that I open it and then it's kind of like ah crap I look terrible and then you go and have to go like that and it's kind of weird they're opening it wrong I'm open how am I supposed to open it Mr Jake don't dig your finger don't dig my fingers face look at where your thumb is when you look it's funny do you not have fingerprints over your webcam no no okay bring it over here the whole thing's disgusting but particularly your webcam right here oh it's so can you guys see this MacBooks aren't even touch screen on my screen it's disgusting well I wasn't planning on disk speed test being our first thing that we do but it is very important because Apple are so in the 14 inch MacBook Pro much like they did on some of the earlier revisions of their laptops you're getting ssds an SSD is made up of a bunch of different like chips that you put on and having more of them is better because you can access them in parallel instead of just one at a time and now on this guy right here even though it is a metric buttload of money you only get one which means that compared to our 14 inch that we have right here it should be worse at disk stuff I don't know if we can accurately compare these unfortunately my 14 inch has a terabyte SSD well this isn't a perfect test but let's run it and just see what happens and we'll wait for that let's tell you about our sponsor thank you to dbrand for sponsoring this video their Skins are made from high quality 3M vinyl that is true texture the patented adhesive is guaranteed to leave no residue on your device if you want to change up your skin or just take it off it's getting a little bit old they're grip cases for your phone or airpods are super durable and a snug fit I have it on my phone right now it's great go to shortlineus.com it says please make a big deal about the URL I guess they want Linus to get mad about it I don't know I don't care he's short and by your overpriced stickers today they spend a lot of money on that URL and they want to make their money back somehow well we are seeing considerably less performance on this SSD not that it's really fair but so yeah it is not a perfect test but we've been running the good old disk speed test for a while now and we are seeing pretty consistent a lot faster on the old one like nearly double it's like actually thrashing it at SSD stuff so yeah it's just worse that sucks Apple you shouldn't have done that for the specs on this guy we get 10 CPU cores so that's six performance cores and four efficiency cores we also have 16 gigabytes of RAM and a 512 Gigabyte SSD that is slow now first of all compared to when they had the butterfly switches this is just so so much better but it's not a perfect keyboard now I would give this a really strong a but probably not an A plus but I am noticing some very slight inconsistencies in the key so like if I'm pushing on the side of this one I can get a fair bit of deflection whereas like over here it feels a lot stiffer like I'm not able to deflect these nearly as much like the S key way stiffer side to side it wouldn't be a huge issue but there isn't a whole lot of throw and there also isn't a whole lot of feedback when you press them so I find it sometimes a little bit confusing with my fingers to know exactly what I'm doing again very good keyboard but it's not the best on the market what is the best on the market though is the trackpad everybody knows Apple's track pads fantastic they still do it is to the point where Windows laptops have caught up so like the trackpad on the HP dragonfly I like it a little bit more not a lot more but it's like they're in the same league they're both a pluses which one you like more just kind of depends on what you like well it's not an A plus though look at this wow I sure wish that I had a touch screen if only Apple you know had a device where they already did the r d to make one of the best touch screens on the market oh wait they did they make the iPad but they just can't make it work on this damn it guys I know a lot of people are going to be like oh I don't need a touch screen on you're wrong I like touch screens a lot and I'm the one that's doing this review so I'm getting mad about it moving over to the 16 inch the specs again fantastic so it's a 12 core CPU a performance course four efficiency cores the ball is a 38 core GPU I don't really know exactly what that means but you can't really game on it anyway so it doesn't really matter on this one we also have 32 terabytes of RAM wait that's one we also have 32 gigabytes of RAM and a one terabyte SSD now once again keyboard's fantastic it's an A but not quite an A plus this trackpad though man especially on the 16 inch in a lot of situations on Windows laptops they just don't have the budget to develop two separate skus for the trackpad so you might get like Dell is pretty bad for this on the XPS where they have an amazing track pad on the 15 inch you can see it right here it takes up almost all of this space but then on the XPS 17 they just reuse this trackpad and don't use up all of that whereas on the MacBook yep all of it this is this the largest trackpad that you can get on a laptop probably is Jake just asked if the Palm rest and everything's good yeah it's fantastic they have gone a little bit sharp on the edges here so sharp edge there if we look over here sharp edge right there don't like it I absolutely love hp's pillow Corners having a rounded over corner right there is just so nice for your wrists that said these are both more than large enough for my hands to fit on it so not really an issue all right let's have a look at the display here and I don't even really need to look at it to just tell you it's absolutely fantastic the resolutions are a little bit strange so it's 3024 pixels by 1964. on the 16 it's 34 56 by 22 34. I don't really know why they chose those resolutions but at the end of the day it doesn't really matter display is fantastic now they do claim 1600 nit Peak brightness which it does do but that's like if you have HDR content and there's like a little break blip right there that's going to get to 1600 if the whole panel's white or whatever you're not going to get that it's going to be more around like 500 ish doesn't matter still one of the best on the market it can be argued that the OLED on something like the XPS 15 is better just because of the black levels now I don't know if you can tell here but the black levels on the OLED screen of the XPS 15 just absolutely murder the Macbook so if you are going to get something with an OLED display especially in dark situations it's gonna look better that said in bright rooms MacBook wins and also the largest problem with OLED displays is battery drain I would very very happily take a MacBook with the liquid retina that actually gets like 15 16 hours compared to this piece of that gets like four so our options are Counter-Strike and Shadow of the Tomb Raider I just want to see what games I can actually play on this I mean I don't even care about the performance having uh what was a 38 core GPU does not matter if all that you can play is shadow of the Tomb Raider okay so of the games that I regularly enjoy rocket league is what I can play on this we are getting 32.8 megabytes per second down this does have Wi-Fi 6E that's one of the big upgrades for the M2 but that seems fine I'm quite certain that I've seen like 40 50 megabytes per second down here on Windows laptops well rocket League downloads let's have a little speaker shoot out all right new one old one I think I like the new one more they've taken the EQ and sort of softened it a bit so the old one had a lot of extra bass and a lot of extra trouble this one right here I think the quality of the components is the same but they've just taken her a little bit more flat so the highs are a bit less harsh and the bass is a bit less muddy I like it let's compare it to the dragonfly murdered absolutely murdered this sort of thing where before I was saying that like I liked the sound of the HP more than the MacBook because it was just way clear now that they've fixed the EQ I like the 14 inch MacBook Pro more I think we have to call that one a draw those are incredibly similar sounding speakers now it's 16 inch time can it beat the XPS 15. all right 16-inch MacBook Pro 16 inch MacBook Pro wins not by a lot but the highs are just a little bit smoother and the base is a bit less crunchy it's a better sounding device now that said some people in the comments are probably going to be like oh remember through this microphone through YouTube compression through your speakers that are probably trash that's not how they actually sound just just trust what we're saying now gaming despite steam saying that there's Max support for Rocket league if you have an M1 or M2 you can't play it fantastic wow I love gaming on Mac it's such a good time Sidetrack a bit here but these are very good laptops with a lot of battery life and a lot of good things going for them and I just cannot use one now macOS is fine if you're used to Windows you can get used to macOS in like a week doesn't really matter vice versa they all do essentially the same crap problem is there's a lot of applications that only work on Windows that simply do not run on Mac I need to open up SolidWorks files fairly regularly can't do it on this simply not an option there's loads of other just like weird controller softwares and like Niche engineering things and so on doesn't work on this piece of in the past when you had the Intel chips you could just you know install parallels and stuff and it worked and now you can't so if you want to run SolidWorks on this you don't you go out and buy an XPS 15. the flip side of this of course is if you are going to be a filming person like an Andy over there everything creative wise Works fantastic on this you've got the good old SD card reader stick her in load all your photos and fantastic you've got the display it's all going to look really good and run very fast one of the things Apple has apparently upgraded quite a bit on this is the webcam now is it acceptable to have a notch we haven't brought up the notch yet but just in general thoughts on the notch yeah it's actually not all that bad but also it just looks terrible it's especially on something like the 14 pro with the M1 it's like oh good job guys you got an absolute tier 720p webcam in this much space like how did they manage it when people like Dell look at this look at how much space they have for a webcam that is of the same tier oh and they also have IR facial recognition here Apple doesn't give you that yeah where's your face ID come on they spent all that time and money figuring it out and they have the freaking space first thing we need to uh make this realistic and simulate how you're going to open it up wow that uh looks pretty bad it is definitely way better on the new one though so here we have the 14 inch MacBook Pro M1 I'm going to clean her off now and that didn't help a whole lot but at the same time this is a perfectly usable webcam we have a very difficult scene right here so very bright light very dark stuff it doesn't care it's properly exposing for my face for the new 1080p webcam it is just clearly better like the 720p one looks like there's a softening filter on my face because it just doesn't have the pixels for it this one just looks way more natural like you know it's just very clear on the 1080p one that like you know it looks like that I have makeup on on the 720p because it just isn't sharp enough to I don't know look at my face like it actually is now comparison here we have the HP elitebook dragonfly which instead of a 1080p webcam has a 1440p webcam here is the 16 inch MacBook Pro and moving over to the HP elitebook dragonfly and I think Apple's taking a win in this one right here but the way that it's exposing for my skin and like the tones just look so much more natural on the MacBook compared to HP HP is still good and I guess it has higher resolution enough that really matters but I'm kind of like a weird orangey tone like I'm very red looking whereas MacBook you know it's the winter time I am very white at the moment and it is accurately reflected right here and here is the big issue with the 14 inch so we can see we have 512 gigabytes of storage and it is all right there on the old one we have two little storage chummies and it would have been very easy for Apple instead of buying one 512 to just get two 256's put them right there you would have a much faster SSD and that is unacceptable on something that's this expensive now one kind of interesting thing about the new 14-inch also is that it looks like the heat sinks a little bit smaller or not even the heatsink but the cold plate on top of the CPU GPU this means that probably they've made just the die size smaller and maybe not the die size but the package size smaller for the CPU GPU and it's just right in here that doesn't really matter performance wise it's just kind of interesting for the 16 inch you get one heat pipe now it is actually amazing the level of performance that they're able to get out of something with this medium tier cooler situation this is the sort of thing where Apple has such an efficiency advantage that they can get away with just worse Cooling than everything in this class and it's fine because well efficiency it's great let's have a look at the battery so on the 14 inch you get a 70 watt hour battery it absolutely poops on everything Windows like not even comparable I am using the HP dragonfly that's about as close as you can get and that's not a powerful laptop another thing that's very notable about the efficiency that we have in here is that the power that you can get with this on battery is very similar to the performance that you can get with it plugged into the wall with a lot of Windows machines particularly with Intel's really fast and Hot Boys you will have a massive performance drop when you go from plugged in to out and on the go it sucks it it's just something that Apple simply does better also on the 16 inch we get a 99.6 watt hour battery hundreds the max that you can take on a plane so excellent work that's as good as this could be and again battery life how often do you charge your laptop Jake Never yeah exactly you can legitimately go two weeks without plugging this in and it is fine but there's one thing that I need to discuss Windows modern standby except it's on Apple this time and I've been having very similar issues it's not very often but particularly when kind of like Jake said you can go two weeks without charging your laptop on those occasional times where it just drains itself for no reason like forty percent to zero in a you Chuck it in your bag and leave it can actually be a travesty because it's so good normally that you might just have left your charger at home or at work or somewhere and you open up and you're like oh me now if you do have your charger again it charges these really fast so it's not a huge huge issue but I am very disappointed that Apple has the same kind of a problem just shows you laptops are not phones they don't always need to be connected to the internet and stuff please just good old sleep totally shut her down now the price you guys know that Apple devices are expensive and these are also very expensive but at the same time it's kind of Justified these days so the 14 inch comes in just under two grand if you want something that just has lots of battery beautiful display and pretty good everything else the Windows doesn't have an answer right now like they're just simply as nothing else that is able to get that kind of battery life and that kind of power same with 16 inch there's about 3 400 you buy something like the XPS 15 which is sort of the closest competitor it is cheaper but the battery life is not even close not even in the same league you have the OLED display on this thing six hours max away from the wall and a lot of the time I'm getting more like four it's so big of a gap in the battery life that yeah if you don't need to do engineering buy one of these like seriously they're fantastic and you know what's also fantastic You Beautiful viewer so if you like this video hit like get subscribed and just
