Thanks for posting this mate. Was searching forever to find these models in a comparison video!

No problem! Thanks for watching!

Quick, simple and easy to digest. Good video!

Thank you!

Thanks for the real-life tests. Mb pro 16" i9 has enough power for all my design and video editing needs, but what annoys me about it - is the 3 hour battery life, and what it gets hot and noisy under load. So I'm thinking of upgrading to an m3 pro or m2 max.

Same here, I have the maxed out i9 Mb pro. I do a lot of video editing and I also work a lot of with AI. At the moment the Intel Mac is alright for my workload, I just wish I had more RAM. I’d say wait for one more generation. There is also quite a serious physical bug in all M series Mac that allows for side channel attacks. I’d wait for Apple to address and fix it first before buying an M series Mac.

I did the upgrade from same machine to m3 max…..and it’s amazing. Not one regret! New machine doesn’t overheat, and handles every task with ease!

Did you run any other tests between the 2 macs. Also was that the m3 pro or max ?

M3 Pro, I did and they were much the same results. Thermal throttling hurt the Intel Mac in almost every circumstance and the times that it didn’t the M3 Pro still completed the tasks quicker.

thanks for the video! I'm about to throw my 2019 intel mb pro to get an m3 pro and this helps a lot. however I'm extremely disappointed with the results. considering apple's claim with x11 more performance '2 years ago', in a real world usage (illustration, animation, video editing) its just 2-3 times at most, and keep in mind older mb thermal throttles in 15 seconds and runs at 0.8 ghz at most.. if only I didn't have to use a macbook😕

No problem! Also yea I agree, the only measure I can see the M3 Pro providing 11x more performance over the i9 is the battery life under load or in performance per watt. As far as raw computing goes, the Intel isn't nearly that slow, but the thermal throttling kills it.

Hey I am getting 2019 MacBook pro at 16gb ram and 1tb ssd i9. At 600 usd. With adaptor. Do you think it's worth it? I will be using mac for the first time in life and was using i7 8 gen windows. Main purpose is to learn coding and ultimately develop skills into machine learning. Kindly reply quickly.

Should do you perfectly fine. For a first Mac I’d say it’s a good purchase because you can swap to windows and have full compatibility if you decide macOS isn’t for you. To introduce you to the Mac ecosystem I’d say it’s worth it.

(Also, what about GPU-intensive tasks like gaming/game dev/CG/Archi Viz.)? Did you mention what GPU your i9 has? Do you know/care what a diff that makes?

Game support at the time of making this video for Apple Silicon was incredibly sparse and was unable to create a true Apples to Apples comparison. I did talk about the GPU's and the difference it makes. I'm not sure if you skipped that part but it was one of the opening things I talked about with both computers.

OH WHAT A SURPRISE! You mean the latest and greatest mac outperformed something that is 5 years old?? You mean a $2500 brand new machine outperfromed a $700 used one?? C'mon dude...

If you believe that there was genuine thought that an M3 Pro would be slower than the Intel Mac then you most likely missed the point of the video.

hi! I think y should use better lighting.

Will do! That's the next thing I was planning to invest in to get better looking content. The camera I'm using is pretty dated so been kinda juggling between those. Thanks for the tip!

comparing a 2020 device with a 2024device, great job!

The Intel is a 2019. Apple in their keynote was really trying to sell the M3 to those that haven’t already moved from Intel to Apple Silicon, so thought I’d display the difference in performance. I doubt anyone expected the i9 to actually beat the M3.

@@eternaliam thanks for your prompt response. Last week my Macbook Pro 16 M1 MAX passed aways due to GPU and I am currently looking for a new Mac. I have been always fashinating by the 2019 with touchbar you have. I found it for 1k euro alternatively there is the M3 MAX for 4k. I'd like to know more... can please tell me more? Thanks!!!
