Just to follow up to that last post - HBM won't get them even close to where they need to go, if they want large memory support. It's worse than DDRx. Where I was going with that suggestion, but left out, is the possibility that they might have two …

Sorry, earlier I wrote "They claimed 2x and 3.5x faster". That was an error, their actual claim was 2.5x and 4x. But, as someone pointed out in another article, that is directly in conflict with other claims they made, which do comport with the numb…

These numbers are suspect. As I pointed out in the article about the GPU performance, GPU perf went up way more than 2x with 2x GPU cores, according to Apple's numbers (which, historically, they have not inflated). That strongly suggests that the co…

From the article: "[M1 Pro] GPU performance is twice as fast as before. Then there's the M1 Max processor. Apple says it provides up to four times faster GPU performance than the M1." That's not even close to correct. Apple is making a MUCH STRONGER…

You're really missed the entire point of what they did with the camera. There is no notch. That is, the old laptop has a 16x10 screen. The new one has a 16x10 screen (with no notch). And then, on top of that, they stuck a camera and some extra scree…

(Posted this on another article, but it belongs here.) [...] it seems likely that CPU performance is not significantly improved - lacking more facts, my money is on Andrei's analysis (in AnandTech), maybe 5-6%. But there are two wildly diverge…

Despite the previous poster's claim, it seems likely that CPU performance is not significantly improved - lacking more facts, my money is on Andrei's analysis (in AnandTech), maybe 5-6%. But there are two wildly divergent ways to look at this. It is…

Mike, good overall review. I think you missed one major aspect of this, though, except for a tiny mention at the end: ongoing support. This is a serious issue because a device like this requires serious LONG-TERM support. For an example of how this …
