2021 MacBook Pro 16 vs 14 Inch - What to Buy as a Student?

In this video, I compare the new MacBook Pro sizes. The new MacBooks were released last November and being that they changed the sizes, I thought it would be a good idea to compare and see which one would better suit your needs. As always, if you have any questions feel free to leave them in the comments below :)

    It’s easier if you think this way. 16” is for - PC user who already got used to 2kg Laptop - already have 13” macbook 14” - for who never had macbook before or had 5 years old macbook and need new one. - PC user who want to go *light* For me 16” is for me because i go test at the store and nothing can change my mind. It’s not that heavy, honestly for me Edit : im 5’5 asian male 50kg weight whp doesn’t type while walking

    Great video! As a student I went for the 14" and think its a better option for most students. Love the sweater though, where is it from?

    I ordered the 16" M1 Pro MacBook Pro and I've been loving it so far. I must admit my old 13" MacBook Pro was better for studying, because of its smaller size. But whenever I do video editing, photo editing or webdesign, it feels like pure luxury (and productivity) to have such a big screen. Though I miss the idea of having a super-portable machine (it's still portable, but less unobtrusive). I bought the 16" while keeping in mind I might buy an iPad (Pro) with the extra money I could earn when working faster on a 16" screen.

    It's quite funny when you say that the 16-inch MacBook is large and heavy. It's the same size as the previous 15-inch MacBook (2020 and earlier), with no difference in size. As for the weight, I'm glad it's not made of creaky plastic.

    So basically I’m going to clg this year …..I want a MacBook cause my legs are already in apple ecosystem I’ll probably get in next month…I’m a part time music producer and do other creative works….I’m confused b/w 16 inch with 512gb or 14 inch with 1tb …. Ik 1tb is a good enough reason to switch but that extra screen real estate will be of gr8 in those messy Logic Pro sessions it has gr8 speakers (although I have studio speakers but It will take time to get fully set up in clg ) also it has fairly better battery life also what will be your opinion in my situation ( I can cope up with storage situation by buying a SSD)

    Hey, u can always get external storage to use but u can’t always increase the screen size. I would opt for the larger screen!

    MacBook Air M1 8GB/256GB is more than enough for students. It’s now available for $849 or $899 I am a photographer / videographer and I am editing 70-80GB photos using Lightroom with the M1 Air. It gets the work done well enough and fast.

    It’s definitely more than enough. I have the M2 Air as a student. Sometimes I wish I had a bigger screen that’s why I am considering the MacBook Pro.
