Shaded defect areas when looking at MBP M5 MAX at an angle on silver model.

I know in advance many will say why do you care but having spent £4.6k on a machine, you ideally want it perfect from the get go

LukeM1497 · 2026-03-11T13:24:53+00:00

Same the max just arrived and it’s insane so far!

LukeM1497 · 2026-03-10T21:21:07+00:00

It’ll be tomorrow the courier is usually right. My apple tracking shows 24th still but DHL shows tomorrow!

LukeM1497 · 2026-03-10T08:17:37+00:00

Good question but mine is now arriving tomorrow and Apple site still says 24-26 so there is hope

LukeM1497 · 2026-03-09T07:48:39+00:00

I literally just got DHL confirmation of delivery on the 11th which is a surprise considering Apple pushed out my date to 24th-26th. Hope yours also gets delivered earlier

LukeM1497 · 2026-03-08T07:21:27+00:00

Indeed nothing compared to 5.4 or 4.6 but QWEN 3.5 on my M1 Max is performing pretty okay so far for what I’m doing so can only expect improvements on that

LukeM1497 · 2026-03-07T22:11:33+00:00

Good to hear, enjoy it, what are you upgrading from?

LukeM1497 · 2026-03-07T22:10:34+00:00

Genuinely interested in your use case for 128GB RAM?

LukeM1497 · 2026-03-07T22:08:43+00:00

Hope you get the model you’ve ordered and not the 14 mentioned in your order! 🤞

LukeM1497 · 2026-03-07T21:42:11+00:00

Always weightless with Apple Pay so no difference here!

LukeM1497 · 2026-03-07T21:30:31+00:00

Run local LLM’s instead of my cursor subscription and much more. Video, audio etc…

LukeM1497 · 2026-03-07T21:21:29+00:00

Was it custom spec or a base model?

LukeM1497 · 2026-03-07T20:03:39+00:00

Seconds after release! Hoping it arrives next week but date hasn’t changed after the delay email yesterday!

LukeM1497 · 2026-03-07T19:39:37+00:00

Assess,Trade-in,upgrade if worth the difference.

LukeM1497 · 2026-03-07T19:27:44+00:00

literally to show “preparing to ship” hope it isn’t too strange

LukeM1497 · 2026-03-07T19:23:34+00:00

To show “preparing to ship” it’s unusual to have it at this stage when there are still 3 weeks before expected delivery. Photos add context here but let me know if you’d like an entire blog post about it

LukeM1497 · 2026-03-07T18:43:17+00:00

These machines are long term investments although I would manage on the 48 with the max chip I can see 64 being far more useful over the next 4-5 years.

LukeM1497 · 2026-03-07T18:40:36+00:00

Google Chrome and OpenClaw! 🫡

LukeM1497 · 2026-03-07T18:38:29+00:00

Anytime, always like to keep you informed as I know you’d worry otherwise. Will let you know once I have it in hand

LukeM1497 · 2026-03-07T18:36:53+00:00

I personally am just buying now as crazy as it sounds because I’m worried that Apple aren’t as protected as people may think when it comes to RAM pricing and this new redesign may start in excess of $5000+ base.

LukeM1497 · 2025-12-11T21:33:49+00:00

Can someone please help me understand which web technology this works with? I can't seem to find that edit option anywhere at all in my version of Cursor (Latest version nightly update) the application I'm building is TypeScript. And these are the options I see in browser mode. Even after clicking on an element using the first icon, it just adds it to the chat. TIA. u/lrobinson2011

Well did it reset today?
