If you are a videographer, the Macbook Pro 17” is simply not good enough for you: it struggles to work with 4k files. Yes, I use my iPad Pro 3rd quite a bit, but whenever I need to do some serious work, it’s my go-to-tool. I’ve been using my Macbook Pro 17” non stop for a year. For one, we don’t know if the new magic keyboard will be reliable. Is the newer Macbook Pro $2500 better? I don’t think so. But even then… You can pick up a good 17” for about $500CAD on kijiji or craiglist: that’s roughly $2500 cheaper than a 16” 2020 edition. All of that with one machine.Įvery other Macbook Pro after the late-2011 17” edition went downhill it seems (okay, maybe not), until maybe the newer 16”. And this is why the Macbook Pro 17” will always be a beast of a tool for professional: you can have 2x 4TB hard disk drives in your laptop in RAID 1 or 0 configuration, a SSD in the mini express card, a line-in from your external analog synth, recording in Logic Pro, monitoring with your headphones, have a fast HDD connected to the thunderbolt interface and having the nice 10GB/s network speed of an internet cable EJ45. I replaced my optical disk drive with a second HDD that serves as my real-time live Time Machine.
