Is it possible to fall in love with an inanimate object? Yes, so much so, I have named it! I cannot believe how lightning fast this little beast is. I also cannot believe how long I have dealt with my poky slow MacBook from 2012. It was agonizing and probably the reason my BP was through the roof haha. This new baby is not just good looking, it weighs probably half of what my relic does, it's sleek and again, so fast! Oh and the audio..... I studied audio engineering and have very fussy & sensitive ears and this baby has such a deep bass, the audio is crystal clear compared to my oldie. I am listening to Susanne Sundfør sing "Mountaineers" and it sounds sick, even my cat just awoke to see what was happening hahaha

Obsessed with this Mac. The performance jump is super noticeable, especially for editing, design, and anything demanding. It’s also surprisingly quiet and stays cool, which I love. The display is great, battery life is way better than I expected, and overall it just feels powerful and polished. Definitely an investment, but 100% worth it if you want top-tier performance. Couldn’t be happier!

Great build Quality lightning fast no issues editing in lightroom or making music in studio one battery last long never here the fans or feel any heat . Im not running llms or trying to push the laptop to death lol its perfect for what i do and will be for the next 5 years .

This laptop is just so fast, so quiet and so cool. Thought it would have thermal throttle issues but I’ve not seen any after opening a gazillion tabs and applications at the same time. The fans don’t even turn on. It also just feels better to use and carry it around everywhere instead of the 16inch. Huge recommendations for this years M4 max chips!

Great build quality - as you would expect from Apple. Performance wise, it was a great update from the M1 Pro processor. Would recommend the upgrade from an M1 Pro. Seems to run twice as fast. Love the Matt black finish. Easier to keep clean than the brushed stainless I had on my old MacBook Pro.
