This MacBook Pro is ideal for professionals who often work in demanding programs such as Adobe Premiere Pro and Photoshop. The model I tested is lightning fast and doesn't lag during heavy operations or when switching between programs. The black color provides a luxurious look, as we have come to expect from Apple. Unfortunately, it does not have an Ethernet port. For this I need my docking station.
A new look
Apple is introducing this model in a new color: space black. This color is a shade darker than space gray and looks a bit like midnight. The disadvantage of these dark colors is that you quickly see fingerprints on them. Apple has come up with a solution for this. Thanks to a special coating, you will hardly see any dirty prints and your MacBook will remain tidy. A nice detail is that the charging cable is included in the same color. The cable is made of fabric, so it wears out less quickly. I think it's a shame that the adapter is just white.
Edit photos, videos and play light games
I always edit my photos with Adobe Photoshop Lightroom. Loading edits and files is fast on this MacBook Pro. My MacBook also has no trouble editing videos. I transfer my raw photo files directly from my Canon camera. In a few seconds, all the material is on my MacBook, without it getting hot. Not even when I connect my 2 external screens and render a 4K video. Besides, I play games on my MacBook. The new M3 chips have ray tracing, which makes rendering images even smoother. I easily play Fortnite with my friends while streaming my gameplay. Frequent charging is not necessary, because my fully charged MacBook lasts up to 18 hours.
My own mini cinema
Thanks to the 6 Dolby Atmos speakers, I hear sounds and music all around me. The Liquid Retina XDR screen is razor sharp, so I don't miss a single detail. In addition, I can see even dark images clearly thanks to the 600 nits screen. I easily place my 1.6 kilogram MacBook on my lap and turn every environment into my own mini cinema.
