I have a 14” M3 Max MBP for work and I have to agree, the design is fantastic. The weight and thinkness have never been an issue for me, and it’s nearly silent unless I have all cores maxed out for more than a couple of minutes. Battery life is phenomenal too, I love when traveling that it can make it through an entire day no matter what I throw at it. If they ruin that for me I’ll be so disappointed.

Yeah I love mine. After having one of the 2017s that suffered from the infamous keyboard issues as my work machine, the apple silicon ones feel like a return to quality engineering. I really hope they don’t screw around with that.

My M1 will make it through an entire workday doing software development with multiple IDEs and emulators running and my phone plugged in also drawing power. When that happens, the only reason I notice is in the last 30 minutes of the day it gives me a low battery warning. These Mx chips are beasts.
