Edit 2026: I dropped Adobe, since I’d rather not pay monthly so got Final Cut! Works even better! I use a local LLM. Llama 3.1, and it works great! Mac OS 26 performs well on it yet! Definitely a solid computer! If I would have chosen the 32GB model, I may not struggle with the LLM. But, it’s still worth it! Edit 2025: I’ve had this Mac since 2021, and it still works the day I got it, it’s beautiful, it runs hard, and it still works the way I need it to, 4k videos, Adobe, everything. Edit: To add to this review. I've noticed some people are complaining about USB ports. Please PLEASE do your research before you buy! It's all USB C ports. HDMI is great to use a Monitor, free's up a USB C port for other devices! The SDHC ports are also available, and absolutely necessary for the everyday Photographer, videographers. That don't use a C Fast memory card (Which most computers you'll need an adapter anyways, but anyone that used normal SD chips for their camera's, it's a great to use! My last windows computer didn't have one, and I ABSOLUTELY needed it, (it's all I could get at that time and luckily I had a USB Adapter) and really no cons. I'm always on this computer, always needing to edit something, and it's been great to have! Otherwise refer to my original review below this edit. It's absolutely fast. Faster than I expected it to be honest. This is my second ever Mac, coming from a renewed mod '09 MBP i got in '17. This Mac blows everything that I own out of the water. Battery lasts me ALL day. Depending on what I'm doing. If I'm editing in premiere pro, or after effects all day. It'll drain a lot faster. If i have Netlfix, YouTube, or Twitch running most of the day. It lasts quite a long time. Browsing and talking with people lasts nearly 2 days. I've had this a week now, and there are no faults with this unit. It came in great condition. No issues with the computer, no scratches and its box was in good condition. It's nice and smooth. The only thing that I don't like, is I can't tether Android. But that's Apple's fault. I can tether on El Capitan, 10.1 MacOS. But not Monterey 12.2.1. I assume it has to deal with the M1 chip though. Some programs don't work with the new M1 chip. But otherwise. No qualms with the package, and shipping was fast.

I tend to use my laptops a LOT, and I could probably be more gentle with them, so I tend to wear them out before they would otherwise need replacement... Leading to this being my 4th MacBook Pro. (It would be helpful if Apple could make better keyboards, but that's outside what I can control.) My last one, a mid-2019 model, had the Touch Bar (which I hated) but the "improved" keyboard which worked well until it began failing one key at a time. I was finally driven to replace it when other problems began to occur. This "new" MacBook Pro is, so far, a definite improvement on its last 2 predecessors. -- KEYBOARD: It took a day or two for me to get used to the feel of the keyboard, but now I'm actually able to touch-type more easily than in the past and it's quiet enough for me to not bother anyone sitting on either side while I work. (It's also very nice to have all the keys work!) The fact that the Touch Bar has been replaced with "old fashioned" function keys is, for me, a major plus because I tended to accidentally activate commands on the Touch Bar when my fingers got too close (maybe I carry too strong an electrical charge?) without my being aware I might be touching it, so having actual physical keys that only react when I actually press them is wonderful. I miss the ability to easily adjust keyboard brightness on the keyboard (it was actually through the Touch Bar), but that's easily taken care of via the Menu Bar. -- SCREEN: The black "notch" at the top of the screen still looks a little odd, but does not affect me or my work negatively in any way; the narrow black bezel around the screen is especially welcome when watching movies or scrolling through social media in bed. Image resolution is very good and brightness is easily adjustable. -- PORTS/CONNECTIVITY: I'm a little torn about the change (from the mid-2019 model) in ports; I frequently find myself wishing I still had 2 USB-C ports on *both* sides but absolutely love the return of the original MagSafe power port (the damage protection of which I've accidentally availed myself of a couple of times already). As far as WiFi is concerned, I've had zero problems to date while connecting to devices in multiple locations. -- FORM FACTOR: After all these years I don't know why I'm always surprised at how hefty this laptop is, but the balance is good enough that it's not noticeable when resting on my knees in a doctor's waiting room. Also, although the edge of the body still seem sharp, this one doesn't seem as prone to leaving painful creases in my wrists & hands as the previous one did. -- OVERALL: I've been living inside the Mac ecosystem a long time; my first desktop unit was an SE30 and my first laptop a 1998 PowerBook G3, so I have a *lot* of Macs to compare this one to... and so far it's sitting very close to the top of my list. My only real argument is with the current version of MacOS, but that's a totally different can of worms. I know there are newer models of the MacBook Pro on the market, but (especially when looking at price) this is one I hope to be using through (at least) the 2020s.

Perfect. The M1 Pro MacBook Pro is a more than capable, extremely capable machine even in 2025 due to its 8 performance cores and 2 efficiency cores for a total of 10 cores. There is no need to upgrade to an M4 Pro if you can find one of these in excellent condition. Mine was described as being like new, and it did indeed arrive in like new mint condition. It appears that someone opened the box and left the computer alone as all the accessories were still wrapped as new and untouched. I checked the battery cycles, it was at 1. That’s a new machine and a steal at only $900 since I was able to get it tax free. I use mine for music production and video editing. Logic Pro works extremely well, I also use Ableton, Reason and Pro Tools with zero issues. Sessions run smoothly. Battery lasts all day too! Keys feel nice, not too heavy but it is a sturdy machine. Get one!

I can’t believe how nice this is. I got used like new and it literally had one cycle on the battery. This thing is a beast & mint condition. This will last me years and years to come. Thank you!

I bought this MacBook Pro M1 Max in 2021 for music production and video editing. Five years later, it is still my daily machine and has not slowed down. I produce R&B music, edit 4K footage from a Panasonic S1H cinema camera in Final Cut Pro, and regularly multitask with 40+ browser tabs open simultaneously. No throttling and no fan noise taking over. The 32GB unified memory handles everything I throw at it without hesitation. The built-in SD card slot is a major advantage for video creators. I pull Delkin SD cards directly from my camera body and import footage instantly, no dongles, no adapters, no transfer delays. The only issue after nearly five years: a subtle popping in the built-in speakers when volume is pushed to absolute maximum. Started around year four. The fix is simple, keep volume at 80% or below and invest in external monitors for serious listening. The built-in speakers were never meant to be your primary system. For anyone considering this in 2026, the fact that it is now available renewed at a fraction of the original price makes it one of the best values in creative computing. Proven five-year reliability at a mid-range price point. Whether you are a college student, a new creator, or a remote worker who needs a machine that will not quit, this is it. Cost per year of ownership makes this one of the smartest purchases I have made for my creative career.

I was a bit concerned about the fact that Apple has moved away from Intel and is now producing their own M1 processor but I have to say it is incredibly fast. My company provides me with my computer of choice for work and in 2020 I received a top of the line MacBook Pro with an Intel 8 core i9 processor and 64GB of memory and 4TB SSD that retailed for close to $5,000 and I have to say this new MacBook pro with the 10 core M1, 16 core GPU, 1TB SSD and only 16GB of memory at almost half that price seems much faster. The display is just stunning. The graphics quality is among the best I've seen and video performance is flawless. it's everything a MacBook pro should be. High performance in a sleek aluminum case. A couple of things to note if you are not familiar with this computer and thinking of buying one. It only comes with 3 USB-C / Thunderbolt 3 interfaces. So you are going to need adapters if you plan on using any wired peripheral devices like keyboard, mouse, external drives etc.. that have standard USB interfaces. And at a minimum you should be backing your system up to an external drive. So, I’d recommend buying a USB-C to USB hub as I'm not big on adapters. There's several here on Amazon in the $20-30 range. Also, like most other manufacturers, Apple has dropped the DVD/CD. It's not even an option. If burning DVDs and CDs is still a thing for you, again you can connect an external device with a hub or adapter. I'd also recommend buying a cooling tray, especially if you are going to leave this computer on a desk powered up perpetually or for long periods of time so you can protect the CPU and more importantly the GPU from heat. Lastly, a few words on MacOS Montery that shipped with this computer. The most recent OS I was using was Sierra on my MBP 2013 and the learning curve was not difficult at all. My only complaint is Monterey turns on a lot of stuff I don't need or even want. For example, as soon as I signed in with my Apple ID to sync my music from iCloud, I started getting texts, Facetime and even phone calls for my entire family on my computer. We use the same Apple ID for all our devices for a number of reasons and while it wasn't too difficult to disable, I'd rather Apple leave that up to the user. I'll post an update more geared toward the performance and reliability of this system as time goes by but for now, I have to say I'm very pleased and would highly recommend this new MacBook Pro. One final comment on the purchase process. I actually ordered one directly from Apple. I live about 60 miles from an Apple store and wanted it shipped to me. I was given a projected ship date about 3 weeks after placing my order. After waiting almost the full 3 weeks, my order was still processing and hadn't moved toward the preparing to ship status. I then realized Apple has a store here on Amazon, they had exactly what I wanted in stock. So after canceling my order with Apple, I bought my computer here on Amazon and it arrived in 2 days.

The computer is amazing. What else can I say. I expected a lot, and it delivered. The battery life is phenomenal, and it charges super fast. I haven't really been able to challenge the computing power much because of how well equipped this machine is. I frequently run Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Lightroom and Chrome with 20 tabs open simultaneously with no issues. The speakers are mind boggling. They somehow create this amazing surround sound effect and I still don't understand it. I will say, it is very heavy. Noticably heavier than past models I've owned. But it makes sense considering how much this machine is packing in. I had some qualms about the notch on the screen, but I've installed an application called TopNotch that blacks out the top bar and hides the notch for most scenarios. The screen real-estate is great though. I also appreciate the periodic 120hz refresh rate. Still a bit behind on that one, apple. We've had accessible 144hz monitors for years at this point. Having a built in SD card port has made my use much more convenient for importing photos from my DSLR. The magsafe charging port is also excellent. No more worries about accidentally breaking the USB-C cable from tripping over the cable. The cable is also threaded and feels great. I appreciate the fingerprint sensor, but it's a little bit finicky. I have to hit space to wake the computer before using the fingerprint scanner or else the screen flickers and does weird things. I'm surprised to say, but I miss the touch bar. I used it for brightness and volume adjustment often and had it customized to take screenshots easily. But I LOVE the tactile ESC key. That's something I have always wanted back on the Macbook series. The keyboard is nice. I miss the metal backing to the keyboard, but that's not a deal breaker for me. The trackpad is as good as ever, no issues there. Overall, it's excellent. Well worth the investment.

It needs to be about $1000 cheaper, especially if you don't get the pro max. It feels crazy to spend 3 grand on a laptop with no offboard 3d video card. However, once you get past the price, this is hands down the best laptop I've ever owned. It almost breaks the laws of physics we've gotten used to with portable devices. You can have battery life, or you can have speed, but you can't have both. Well you get both. This thing will happily do the most intensive rendering, gaming, whatever, on battery power and not bat an eyelash. I don't even recharge it daily or even bi daily. I charge it a few times a week....It's THAT good at running on battery. If you're not using it, it can go weeks in sleep mode and still wake up with lots of battery left. The display is amazing and there is little to no halo. If you took a photo of the screen and processed the image to make it brighter, sure you'd probably find a little blooming against black backgrounds, but in front of it, your eyes only see very bright highlights, and inky blacks. The sound is amazing. It isn't just a full sound, it's pretty flat and accurate sound considering it's a laptop. I often don't even reach for my headphones because there is nothing at all offensive about the built in speakers. It is a little chonky and on the heavy side compared to the Macbook Air I'm used to, but still very portable and a solid build. Gaming. It can do it. I don't know what gaming on Mac's is like with a Radeon card, but the apple silicon is more than capable of running games like Kerbal Space Program and Heroes of The Storm at 60+FPS and that is good enough for me. The on board storage is BLAZING fast, like >2000MB/s fast. If you have the space, this is a video editing power house between the fast on board storage, and ultra fast RAM speed.
